Before we apply any ceramic coating, your vehicle’s paint must be surgically clean. We use specialized panel wipe solutions to strip away all remaining oils, residues, or polishing compounds from the surface. This step ensures the ceramic coating bonds directly to the paint at a molecular level—maximizing durability, longevity, and hydrophobic performance. Think of it as priming the canvas before sealing in perfection. Skipping this step? Not an option in our shop.
