    Ceramic coating: years of protection and shine.

    A premium, long-lasting ceramic layer that bonds to your paint, guarding against UV, contaminants, and minor scratches while delivering a deep gloss and hydrophobic, easy-clean finish.

    What's Included

    Comprehensive ceramic protection

    Multi-year ceramic protection (1 to 5 year options)
    Full paint prep & decontamination
    Optional paint correction first (recommended)
    Hydrophobic water-beading finish
    UV & contaminant resistance
    Coating available for paint, glass & wheels

    Give your car long-lasting shine and protection.

    Ceramic coating repels dirt, resists light scratches, and makes every wash easier. Unlike traditional wax that washes away in weeks, ceramic coating creates a semi-permanent bond with your vehicle's surfaces.

    Included prep: exterior wash, claybar treatment, rims and tires cleaned and dressed, and professional ceramic application by certified technicians.

    Why Empire for Ceramic Coating

    Coating is only as good as the prep beneath it.

    We properly correct and prep the surface so the coating locks in a flawless, lasting finish. Rushed prep means locked-in imperfections. We don't cut corners because your coating should be perfect from day one.

    Ceramic Coating FAQs

    Questions about ceramic coating?

    How long does ceramic coating last?+

    Our ceramic coatings last 1 to 5+ years depending on the package selected and how well the vehicle is maintained. We'll match the right package to your budget and expectations.

    Do I need paint correction before coating?+

    Highly recommended. Correcting paint first ensures the coating locks in a flawless finish rather than sealing in swirls and defects. We always inspect and advise before any coating application.

    How do I maintain a coated car?+

    Ceramic-coated vehicles are much easier to maintain. We recommend using pH-neutral soap, avoiding automatic car washes with harsh brushes, and bringing it in annually for a maintenance check. We provide full care instructions.

    What affects the cost of ceramic coating?+

    Factors include vehicle size, paint condition (whether correction is needed), number of surfaces being coated (paint, wheels, glass), and the specific coating product selected. Contact us for a tailored quote.

    Is ceramic coating worth it for a daily driver?+

    Absolutely. Daily drivers benefit enormously from ceramic coating: easier washing, better protection against UV and contaminants, and a lasting gloss that holds up to regular use.
