CERAMIC COATING MELBOURNE

IS YOUR CAR PROTECTED?

UV oxidation can cause your vehicle to appear dull and chalky, environmental contaminants can embed into paintwork leaving your vehicle feeling rough and gritty, while improper washing causes swirl-like scratches that reduces clarity.

A car without adequate paint protection is more prone to damage, which can ultimately lead to clear-coat failure.

WHAT MAKES CERAMIC COATING SO GREAT

Increased gloss and a slick feel that needs to be seen to be believed and felt to be understood.

Pre Booking Tips

If necessary gently rinse your car with tap water, otherwise please avoid washing a new car prior to your booking to prevent any imperfections from appearing in the paintwork.

Post Booking Tips

Simply rinsing the car with water is enough for many customers. When a hand wash is preferred, the process is the same regardless of whether the car has a ceramic coating or not. That said, there are right and wrong ways of doing everything, and washing a car is no different.

For information on the correct hand wash method, please refer to our PDF guide.

5-STAR customer ReVIEWS

DEALERSHIP PAINT PROTECTION, IS IT WORTH IT?

When it comes to car care, many people think that the dealership is the best option. After all, they are the experts, right?  Well, not always. The focus of car dealerships is more often the sale of the vehicle than the quality of the paintwork.

 

A new car can sit on a ship for weeks before being delivered by a truck, handled by the dealership and then washed. Remember one careless wash is all it takes to begin marring paintwork, and because a ceramic coating cannot be washed off, it’s best to let industry experts handle it.

If you book the ceramic coating with the car dealership, they are unlikely to offer pre-application services like polishing or paint correction. That’s where we come in. We inspect each vehicle with powerful lights and provide recommendations to improve the paintwork.

A poorly prepared or coated vehicle can result in a streaky finish. That’s why many people trust us to inspect, prepare, and apply ceramic coatings. Plus, at Advanced Detail, you’ll get a better deal than at a car dealership!

It’s worth noting that car dealerships know most customers sell or trade in their cars within five years. If the warranty isn’t transferable, dealerships may overstate the coating’s lifespan. So, if you’re a second owner, your warranty claim might not be honoured. Remember, ceramic coatings don’t last forever and car care and maintenance are still necessary.
