Is A Ceramic Coating Right For Me?

At The Detail Shop, we believe every vehicle on the road should be ceramic coated. The reality is, not everyone cares enough about their vehicle to ceramic coat it. If you are someone who enjoys washing and waxing their vehicle on the weekends or your just someone who likes a clean, protected vehicle, than a ceramic coating is for you.

Ceramic coatings offer incredible gloss and protection from the elements. Ceramic coatings form a hard, durable, extremely hydrophobic layer of protection on your vehicle’s paint, glass and wheels.

Good Investment.

The coating will permanently protect the vehicle’s exterior and interior from deteriorating. The resale market value of your vehicle will be higher as not only will the coating have tangible benefits for the new owner, but the warranty is transferrable too.

Looking New All The Time.

Once the coating is applied you will see ultimate gloss and color depth, incomparable to any other wax, sealant or coating. Properly maintained, the vehicle’s finish will hold its unmatched gloss for years to come.

Less Maintenance.

The slickness of the coated surface does not allow dirt, brake dust and tar to stick to your vehicle’s paint, wheels or glass. The coating is so slick and resistant to chemicals that contaminates can be removed with less aggressive and damaging wash methods. Washing the vehicle becomes less labor intensive and needed less frequently. Waxing is now obsolete.

The Labocosmetica coating collection offers plenty more advantages than traditional waxes:

  • Strong resistance to chemical agents and detergents
  • Strong resistance to scratches
  • Strong resistance to extreme temperatures: 280°C
  • Impressive Gloss Effect
  • Gives the bodywork a brighter, intenser, three dimensional colour
    Water-repellent effect
