Our skilled ceramic coating installers in St. Louis will provide you with the best coating suitable for your car make and model. Take a closer look at our ceramic coating process:

1. Surface Preparation: The foundation of a successful ceramic coating application lies in thorough surface preparation. Professional installers start by meticulously washing and decontaminating the vehicle's surface to remove dirt, grease, and other impurities. This step often involves clay barring to eliminate embedded contaminants and ensure a clean canvas for the coating.

2. Paint Correction (Optional): For vehicles with imperfections such as swirl marks, scratches, or oxidation, paint correction may be necessary before applying the ceramic coating. Professional installers use polishing compounds and machine buffers to restore the paintwork to its optimal condition, enhancing the coating's adhesion and overall finish.

3. Application of Ceramic Coating: With the surface primed and perfected, it's time for the main event—the application of the ceramic coating. Using specialized applicator pads or spray guns, installers evenly distribute the coating onto the vehicle's surface, working in small sections to ensure thorough coverage. The formulation of the ceramic coating forms a chemical bond with the paintwork, creating a durable, hydrophobic barrier that repels water, dirt, and UV rays.

4. Buffing and Leveling: Once the ceramic coating is applied, installers meticulously buff and level the surface to remove any excess product or streaks, ensuring a flawless finish. This step requires precision and attention to detail to achieve optimal clarity and glossiness.

5. Final Curing: The last step in the ceramic coating application process is curing, allowing the coating to bond fully with the vehicle's surface. Depending on the product used, curing may involve air drying for a specified period or using infrared lamps to accelerate the process.
