Ceramic Coating Packages

Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to your vehicle’s exterior surfaces. It chemically bonds with the factory paint, forming a hydrophobic layer of protection.

This layer resists water, dirt, road salt, brake dust, UV rays, and chemical contaminants. It reduces the need for frequent washing and eliminates the need for waxing altogether.

• ✨ Enhances gloss and depth of paint
• 🛡️ Shields against sun damage, oxidation, and bird droppings
• 🚿 Makes cleaning dramatically easier
• 🚫 Repels water, dirt, and grime with self-cleaning properties
• ⏳ Lasts up to 5 years depending on the package you choose

It’s the ultimate way to protect and enhance your investment.

Applying ceramic coating properly takes time, skill, and the right conditions. Here's how we do it at Summit Detailing:

1. Thorough Wash & Decontamination: We start by removing all dirt, tar, bugs, and iron from your paint using a pH-neutral foam wash and clay bar treatment.
2. Paint Enhancement: Depending on the package, we polish the paint to restore depth and clarity — removing light scratches, swirls, and oxidation.
3. Panel Wipe: A prep solution is used to eliminate any remaining residues or oils so the coating can bond perfectly.
4. Hand Application of Coating: We apply the ceramic coating one panel at a time using precise crosshatch strokes, ensuring full coverage.
5. Leveling & Curing: After flash time, we level the coating for a flawless finish and allow it to cure undisturbed.

Your vehicle is now protected with a hydrophobic, high-gloss barrier that lasts for years — all without leaving your driveway.

Proper aftercare is key to getting the full lifespan and performance of your ceramic coating. Here’s what we recommend:

• 🕒 Wait 24 Hours: Avoid water, rain, or washing for at least 24 hours after application to let the coating fully cure.
• 🚿 First Wash: Wait 7–10 days before your first hand wash. Do not use automatic car washes — they can damage the coating.
• 🧴 Use pH-Neutral Soaps: Stick to pH-balanced, ceramic-safe shampoos for best results. No wax or harsh detergents.
• 🧼 Wash Method: Use the 2-bucket method and microfiber wash mitts to reduce swirls and scratches.
• 💧 Drying: Always use a clean microfiber towel or air blower to dry. Avoid air-drying to reduce spotting.

We’re happy to guide you on products and maintenance tips — just ask! Keeping your coating healthy is part of our service.
