Differences in ceramic coatings

The photo above: The V6 Amarok in the shop is our ceramic coating. The black car to the right has a ceramic coating installed by someone else. 

We do have prices on this page, but we have a lot to share first.

Our Prices vs the Cheaper Guys

 Cheap detailers ceramic coatings $800
Mid Range: $1,000 - $1,700
Dealership: $3000

Our pricing is based on 10 to 16 hours of labour from two or three skilled workers, while cheaper detailers often work solo and finish in less than a day.
 
Even if it is new we polish (paint correction) before we ceramic coating. Ceramic coatings applied over existing defects, makes them more noticeable and impossible to remove without removing the coating. Cheaper detailers tend to skip proper paint correction.
 
Gtechniq backs our ceramic coatings, and you'll receive confirmation and documentation from them (and us). We encourage you to return to us for future needs; for example, if you get in an accident and need a panel recoated, we often do this for free. 
 
Our coatings are from a top-tier company, typically costing $300 to $500, and we apply two layers. All-in-one ceramic coatings are cheap and inferior. Many detailers have opted for a single layer to cut costs, but we believe in providing the best performance.

Example of a bad ceramic coating

Photo above: Today, the customer picked up their car from the dealership after it had been ceramic coated. However, they noticed it didn't look right and brought it to us. We informed them that the car hadn't been properly polished, and the ceramic coating was applied over scratch marks, which were now encased under the coating. It would have taken at least 50 labours hours to repair and recoat. 

CRYSTAL SERUM LIGHT + EXO V5 - Hardness, Extreme Gloss and Hydrophobic properties 

(Our Recommended Coating)

Total price with the booking fee and GST
$1,123.10  for most cars ($100 discount on small vehicles like Mazda 2)
None Refundable Booking Fee $380.00

This is our recommended coating for daily driven cars. It offers a hard protective layer of Crystal Serum Light and the Hydrophobic layer of ExoV5. The two layers outmatch most ceramic or graphene coating on the market. Also, the two layers offer more depth than any single layer. Depth is thickness, the thicker the coating the more glass-like the clear coat will look.  We are always looking for the best products; currently, this is it.

COMMON QUESTIONS

  • Question: How long will we need the car?

  • Answer: If you drop off your car before 9 am we should have it returned to you the following day by 9 am. Sometimes it can take three days. In the worst case possible; you drop off the car Monday afternoon. We would have the car ready by 7:45 am Wednesday.

  • Question: Should I wash the car before bringing it in?

  • Answer: No. No one will wash it better than us. Their washing methods might cause us more work.

  • Question: Why is there a non-refundable booking fee?

  • Answer: It covers the cost of the products. Since it is a guaranteed product it can only be installed by us. We cannot use or resale the product. Once it's ordered it's tied to your car. 

  • Question: Can you explain the booking fee a bit more?

  • Answer: Once we receive the booking fee we order the product and normally arrives overnight or in two days. 

  • Question: When you say for most cars what do you mean?

  • Answer: Our prices include a one stage paint correction which takes about 6 - 8 hours to complete. If your car has oxidation or is in bad condition it might need wet sanding or a two-step paint correction. Those additional steps can take days to complete. See photo of the yellow car below.
