CERAMIC COATING
Ceramic Coating in Madison, WI
Professional ceramic coating is the protection stage of the VDS process. The finish is assessed and prepared first; where restoration is required, Paint Enhancement or Paint Correction is completed before the coating is applied.
PREPARATION BEFORE PROTECTION
A Coating Is Only as Good as the Finish Beneath It.
Inspect
Review paint condition, defects, prior work and how the vehicle will be used.
Prepare
Clean and decontaminate the painted surfaces so protection is bonded to a properly prepared finish.
Restore When Needed
Use Paint Enhancement or Paint Correction only where the finish actually benefits from machine restoration.
Protect
Apply professional ceramic protection and provide realistic aftercare guidance for the finished vehicle.
WHAT CERAMIC PROTECTION DOES
