Intro
The following is our polishing, detailing and ceramic coating pricelist.
Every car and client has unique needs. That’s why our approach to detailing is fully customisable – tailored to your car’s condition, how you use it, and what matters most to you.
What follows is a two step menu where you can choose the options you want.
To get the most accurate recommendations or a truly customised package, we suggest booking a pre-inspection. This allows us to assess your car’s condition properly with you and dial in the detail to suit it perfectly.
Choose Your Main Detailing Package
Our Main Detailing Package options are arranged by Polishing Level, from intensive to light, chosen to suit your paints condition and type, with each one’s price listing how much it would be with a given Ceramic Coating combined with it, arranged from basic (1 year) to more advanced (5 layers).
Step 1: Choose the level of polishing you require.
If you have scratches and swirls then you require Paint Correction. The difference between a Two or One step is the quantity of polishing.
If you have only swirls or your car looks pristine or you are happy with its condition and want either just a boost in gloss or the cheapest preparation before apply a ceramic coating then choose Paint Enhancement.
Please note all our main detailing package options includes basic details that can be customised in Step 3 with more detail as you may require.
Main detailing packages includes:
- Normal exterior wash
- 30 min clay bar paint decontamination
- 30 min vacuum & interior wipe down
Step 2: Choose the ceramic coating you want
The ceramic coating options for each polishing level is arranged from the most basic to the most advanced in terms of longevity and durability. Choose the coating that fits your protection requirement and budget.
Brief explanation and guide to our ceramic coating options:
Please noite: If you want a ceramic coating to protect you from deep scratches or stone chips, they cannot do that. Look into paint protection film PPF
The 1 Year Coating
Here we use CERAMIC PRO’s CARE+
Simplest and most basic coatings we offer. Offers excellent water and dirt repellency, UV and environmental and chemical protection
The 1 year option requires no maintenance other than proper washing for the year that follows its application. In that way its more convenient and kind of lower cost to own but it doesnt have the same level of performance as more progressive coatings.
The 3 year option
Here we use CERAMIC PRO’s TOP COAT
if ceramic pro maintenance is applied every six months it will confidently achieve it’s 3 year protection rating or more.
It’s our experience that long term, i.e. 5 year if applied as a single layer coating, does not quite achieve their forecasted term. The reasons are two fold; their maintenance is optional and not up to the same quality and evolution as CERAMIC PRO. Also in our real world exoerien es Not only that but at the three year mark looks tired with swirls or lack luster
Bronze to Gold Packages
Here we use CERAMIC PRO’s 9H+ as the base coat, which is the physical (strength wise) layer and topped off with their Top Coat, which is more chemical resistance layer but also has phenomenal phsycoial strength.
use advanced Ceramic Pro coatings that build up thicker, glossier, and more durable layers with each step – offering better protection, deeper shine, and better resistance to scratching and marring.
The largest benefit of going with multiple layers is that they can contain more or deeper scratches relative to how thickly applied it was.
