Why Ceramic

Built for Pacific Northwest weather.

  • Only the best products

    We install ONYX Graphene Pro, Quartz Pro and Quartz 3, and we are certified to install them.

  • Effortless washing

    Road film, pollen and grime rinse away instead of sticking.

  • Lasting gloss that won’t fade

    A deep, glassy finish that outlasts any wax or sealant.

  • UV & contaminant resistance

    Helps guard against fading, bird droppings and tree sap.

  • Fewer washes, less water

    Cleaner for longer means less water and fewer products over time.

Options

Simple pricing, in three steps.

Prep · included

The same for every coating

  • Hand wash: A thorough wash so we start with a clean car.
  • Decontamination: Lifts embedded grime so the coating bonds to bare paint.
  • Polish: A paint enhancement that boosts gloss before we coat.

Deeper swirls or scratches? Paint correction is quoted separately, so you only pay for what your paint needs.

Questions

Ceramic Coating FAQ

Still deciding? (206) 222-2710

What coating do you use?

ONYX coatings, in three levels: Graphene Pro (10-year), Quartz Pro (5-year) and Quartz 3 (3-year). Our team is certified to install them.

How long does ceramic coating last?

It depends on the coating you choose: Quartz 3 (3-year), Quartz Pro (5-year) or Graphene Pro (10-year). A yearly inspection and booster keeps your warranty active.

Do I need maintenance to keep the warranty?

Yes. Your ONYX warranty is kept by a yearly inspection and booster. Pay for each booster as you go, or choose Lifetime Coverage, one price that covers the application and every booster for the length of your warranty.

Is paint correction included?

Every ceramic package includes a wash and paint prep (decontamination + polish). If your paint has deeper swirls or scratches, we quote paint correction separately, so you only pay for what your car needs.

When can I wash it or drive in the rain?

We give you exact cure-time guidance for your coating at pickup.

Is ceramic coating worth it in the PNW?

Constant rain, road film and tree sap are exactly what ceramic shrugs off. Most owners notice the difference after the first wash.

Does ceramic coating stop rock chips?

No. Ceramic adds gloss and makes washing easy, but it won’t stop chips. For that, pair it with PPF on the front of the car.

Can I add glass ceramic?

Yes. Add it to any coating when you pick your level. Choose the windshield or all windows.

Can I put ceramic on top of PPF?

Yes. Coating over film adds gloss and makes it even easier to clean, and you can book them together.

How long will you need my car?

It depends on the coating and your paint. Your quote includes how long we’ll need it.
