CERAMIC COATING
Ceramic Coating Services
Give your car a next-level shine and protection with our ceramic coating service. A ceramic coating is a liquid nano-ceramic polymer that we apply by hand to your vehicle’s paint (or on top of PPF and even wheels). Once cured, it forms an extremely durable, transparent layer that bonds to the surface. It’s like adding a second clear coat on your car, one that provides enhanced gloss, hydrophobicity, and resistance to the elements. If you want your car to look freshly detailed for years with minimal maintenance, ceramic coating is the answer.
How It Works
To ensure the best bonding and longevity, we follow a thorough process
We start with a full decontamination of your paint – foam wash, clay bar treatment, and iron fallout removal to leave the surface ultra clean. If your paint has any swirl marks or minor scratches, we perform a paint correction polish to ensure the surface is perfect before coating. (A coating will “lock in” the paint’s condition, so we want it as flawless as possible first.)
We apply the ceramic coating in a clean, controlled environment. The coating is hand- applied in small sections using applicator pads, leveling it to ensure even coverage. We typically apply one full coat over all painted surfaces (and can also coat plastic trim, headlights/taillights, and even wheels and brake calipers upon request). Each section is buffed gently to remove excess and achieve a crystal-clear finish.
3.Controlled Curing
The coating begins to bond instantly but needs time to fully cure. We allow the vehicle to sit overnight indoors whenever possible. The coating will cure to the touch within 24 hours, but full curing takes about 7 days – during this time we advise you to keep the car dry and avoid any harsh chemicals on it. Once cured, the coating is extremely durable and ready to face the elements.
did you know?
You might wonder, why not just wax? The difference is longevity and strength. A typical wax or sealant might last 2-3 months at best before it wears off. Our ceramic coating, on the other hand, forms a semi-permanent bond with your paint that doesn’t wash away or break down in a few months. It’s a one-time application that continues protecting for years. The shine and hydrophobic effect won’t just wash off like a wax – it’s literally bonded to your clear coat. While wax gives some gloss and water beading, it can’t compare to the mirror shine and ultra-durability of a professional ceramic coating. In short, ceramic coating is worth it for the serious car enthusiast who wants to maintain that just-detailed look with far less effort.

Benefits of Ceramic Coating?
Many of our clients pair PPF with ceramic coating for the ultimate new-car protection package. PPF will guard against physical damage, and the ceramic coating on top makes the whole car easier to clean and adds extra shine – the best of both worlds.
Unrivaled Gloss & Shine
Enhances your car’s color with a deep, candy-like gloss that lasts for years – many say it looks better than new.
Light Scratch Defense
Adds a tough, slick layer that helps prevent swirl marks and minor scratches – like a hard candy shell for your paint.
Hydrophobic Protection
Water, mud, and grime slide right off. Your car stays cleaner longer, and washing becomes effortless.
UV & Chemical Resistance
Shields paint from sun fading and chemical etching caused by bird droppings, bug splatter, and more.
With a ceramic-coated car, you’ll find maintenance is easier. Regular washing is still required, but you won’t need to wax the car every few months. Just wash with a pH-neutral shampoo and dry – the coating does the rest. We’ll give you guidance on how to care for your coated car (for example, using coating-safe car wash soap and avoiding abrasive cleaners). Follow our simple care tips and your car will continue to shine for a long time. We even offer an annual check-up and maintenance top-up service, if you want, to ensure the coating performs its best over its life.
TINTRUK uses XPEL FUSION PLUS ceramic coating, a professional- grade coating engineered to work excellently on both bare paint and over XPEL PPF. XPEL FUSION PLUS offers unmatched gloss and hydrophobic performance with just a single layer 9 . When paired with our expert application, this coating will last up to 4 years on your vehicle’s surface. In fact, XPEL guarantees our applications with a 4-year warranty against coating failure 10 – meaning it will continue beading water and shining brilliantly for years, or we’ll reapply it. (With proper maintenance, many coatings can even exceed their warranty span.) We are an authorized installer of XPEL coatings, so you get an official product warranty card upon installation.
