Protective Ceramic Coating Services Located In Kitsap County, WA
What Are Ceramic Coatings?
Ceramic coatings are the ideal choice for long-term protection of your car’s paint. Their function is straightforward: they create a tough, polymerized layer that firmly bonds with the paint. This layer acts as a robust barrier, shielding your car’s paint from water, dirt, bird droppings, and other elements that could make your car look less than its best. As a result, your vehicle stays cleaner for longer.
While typical paint protection often falls short in terms of longevity, ceramic coatings stand apart. They offer durability measured not in weeks or months, but in years, while continuously maintaining your car’s paint in peak condition. It’s not just about the protection though. These coatings also provide your car’s paint with a significant visual uplift – they deepen the paint’s color, especially on darker cars where every scratch or mark usually stands out more, and boost gloss levels to a mirror-like finish.

Professional-Grade Ceramic Coatings Ready To Elevate Your Finish
We live in the PNW, so naturally, we receive lots of rain. Picture this: You’re getting ready for another PNW rainy day, and you reach for your trusty raincoat to stay dry and protected. Similarly, when you apply layers of ceramic coatings to your car’s paintwork, it’s like outfitting it with a high-quality, durable, and water-resistant raincoat.
Just like a raincoat repels water, the flouromodified polysilazanes and graphene reinforcement in our ceramic coatings create a hydrophobic barrier on your car’s surface. Whenever it rains, water will simply bead up and roll off effortlessly, much like how raindrops slide off a well-treated raincoat. As a result, your car stays cleaner for longer, is easier to clean, and preserves its deeper gloss.
And just as a raincoat protects you from more than just water, our ceramic coatings provide additional safeguards for your car’s paint. It acts as a shield against other common contaminants like dirt, dust, bird bombs, and even resistance to UV rays. The coating forms a barrier that prevents these substances and natural phenomenon from bonding to the surface
FAQs About Ceramic Coatings – Answered By Apex1 Tint & Details
Regularly wash your car using a pH-neutral car wash soap and a soft microfiber wash mitt. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals, as they can diminish the coating’s effectiveness. Additionally, consider using a ceramic coating-specific spray detailer for added protection and shine between washes. Periodically inspect the coating for any signs of wear or damage, and address any issues promptly. Finally, consider scheduling professional maintenance sessions here at Apex1Detailing to ensure the coating remains in optimal condition over time.
Yes, after applying a ceramic coating, it’s important to allow for a curing period, ranging from 24 to 48 hours, depending on the ceramic coat package you choose with us. During this time, it’s best to keep the vehicle dry and avoid exposing it to harsh elements.
Our ceramic coating formulas are in liquid form, skillfully applied by our installation team onto meticulously cleaned and corrected exterior and interior surfaces. Regarding the paintwork, your vehicle’s clear coat contains tiny, sometimes microscopic, imperfections that our ceramic coating’s nanoparticles seamlessly fill. This creates a durable connection that remains steadfast even during routine maintenance washes.
While ceramic coatings offer impressive durability, potentially lasting up to a decade with proper care, it’s important to remember they aren’t a permanent solution. Over time, all coatings will require replacement. To ensure your ceramic coating remains effective, entrust its maintenance and monitoring to a professional detailing team like ours at Apex1Detailing.
With your ceramic coating in place, your vehicle’s exterior and interior surfaces stay cleaner for extended periods, preventing contaminants from penetrating or causing stains. When it comes to your exterior coating, the only artificial environment you should steer clear of is a public car wash. Ceramic coatings may incur scratches from improper, abrasive washing methods, and public car washes are frequently the primary source of such incidents.
