The process of ceramic coating will take between 1-3 days depending on the condition of your paint, the size of the vehicle and the packages you select. The 1st step is to wash and prep the vehicle. The 2nd step is to correct all the imperfections in the paint such as swirls and scratches. Once the vehicle is properly prepped, a body shop safe prep solvent will be applied to the entire vehicle to get to bare paint. At this stage the coating process will begin, and each panel of the vehicle will have ceramic applied, leveled, and stacked to achieve the package you have selected.
No, our trained and certified professionals are experts in the art of surface correction. Our professionals will restore your vehicle to the absolute best condition they can prior to ceramic application.
That’s the great thing about ceramic products. Water and a mild soap or dish soap will do the trick. Good bye harsh chemicals, clay bars, etc. Even glass cleaner or a No Rinse lubricant/wash will work to quickly and easily maintain your coating.
No, ceramic products are the permanent replacement to wax and sealants. You can throw those products in the trash!
Yes. To maintain your warranty, you need to attend an annual service. This is to ensure ceramic performs properly for the entire length of the warranty. If an annual inspection is missed, the warranty could be voided.
You should wait 14 days before the 1st wash to allow the solvents to outgas and fully cure. If you notice that your car gets water spots, bird droppings, tree sap etc. during these two weeks immediately remove it following our care instructions. Keep in mind the coating is softer during the 14 days so work on the paint very gently.
Give your beloved car a fresh start! Detail it with a new ceramic coating by the best of the best in town! But what exactly is a ceramic coat? A nano-ceramic coating system is an ultra-durable layer of glass covering every inch of your vehicle’s surface. This acts as a barrier between your paint and harmful elements on the road.
Think of it as a sacrificial layer on your car’s surface to safeguard the paint and clear coat underneath. If you live in an area where winter ice and snow are prominent, this protective layer will make those harsh chemicals easier to remove due to the coating’s hydrophobic properties. Moreover, it acts as an extra shield from environmental pollutants, tree sap, scratches from road salt, grime, dirt, industrial fallout dust, binding brake dust, and anything else that tries to ruin your car’s paint job. Overall, it helps your beloved ride stay cleaner longer!
While we know that you sit on the interior most of the time, the exterior also requires extra care. Our Ceramic coatings last up to a Lifetime with proper maintenance and care. We use the finest pro-grade 9H professional ceramic coatings by SunCoat Ceramics. This nano-technology will add incredible levels of depth to the paint along with reliable water repellency. Island Detail will apply the coating to the vehicle’s paint, glass, plastic trim, glass windows, rims and can even interior leather and fabrics if asked for.
The application process can be very tedious to do without help, that is why Island Detail is here to take care of that for you! Island Detail also knows that adequate preparation is critical for a long-lasting coating on top of having the right equipment. That is why before every application, we make sure to understand everything about your car.
The first step is to resolve the car’s paint. We spend a lot of time correcting a vehicle’s exterior before applying the ceramic coat. When needed, we perform paint correction and address any minor scratches, unwanted marks, and faded paint on the surface before applying. The vehicle’s surface must be perfect before applying the base coat as the imperfections will be very hard to correct after the application of the first layer.
We use the finest pro-grade 9H professional ceramic coatings by by SunCoat Ceramics. This nano ceramic coating product will add incredible levels of depth to the paint along with unbelievable water and dirt repellency and a rugged durability measured in years and is the best ceramic coating we have found and is comparable to ceramic pro. Ceramic coatings will last 3 Years, 6 Years, or a Lifetime depending on choosen package and having proper maintenance. The price of the coating will vary depending on the condition of the vehicle’s paint, color of vehicle, and the size of vehicle. You can spend anywhere from $1,200-$2,500 depending on the scope of the project. We also offer a more affordable 14-18 month ceramic coating for cars starting at $599.
For maintaining ceramic coatings we recommend you wash their car regularly utilizing a hand wash. Ceramic coatings on your vihicle require at least once a month maintenance for maximum protection and an enhanced gloss finish. We do not recommend you take your car through a tunnel car wash system as it will put swirl marks in the ceramic coating and ruin the paint job as well as integrity of the coating itself. We offer one free monthly maintenance cleaning for all of our customers who get a ceramic coating applied by Island Detail to get you started.

We do not recommend you take your car through a tunnel car wash system as it will put swirl marks on the coating and void the warranty. We offer one free monthly maintenance cleaning for all customers who get a ceramic coating applied by Island Detail.
When we finalize the correction process, our Island Detail technicians apply the by SunCoat ceramic coating by hand with a one-inch soft foam applicator. We top off this coat with a special nano-ceramic sealant composed of silicon dioxide and titanium dioxide to give your car an extra layer of immunity. The last step is to ensure the ceramic coat cures for 6 hours to achieve a hydrophobic surface and a permanent bond.
A properly applied ceramic coat will show water beads (a phenomenon that occurs on the body paint when water droplets form on top of the painted surface instead of sticking). We make sure the coating is maintained in a controlled environment during the curing time to ensure proper bonding to the car’s paint.
Annual Inspections must be carried out by an approved applicator, within 30 days before or after the anniversary date of the last service to maintain the warranty. Failure to undertake an annual inspection within the required period will void the warranty. A fee of $150 will be charged for the Annual Inspection, which includes – Exterior Wash, Decontamination, Application of Topcoat, and Inspection. Warranty terms can be found here (Click Here).
