Ceramic Coatings Denver, Colorado| What Do They Cost?

How much money should you spend on a ceramic coating, and how much do ceramic coatings cost? I like simple answers, so here are our average ceramic coating prices:

Sedan: $1,200

Small SUV: $1,200 - $1,500

Large Vehicle: $1,500+



It’s important to keep in mind…. these are AVERAGE ceramic coating prices, and like we said, one of our favorite parts of the job is working one on one to find out exactly what works for them.

Now let’s answer the burning question :Why are Ceramic Coatings So Expensive?

Well there are 3 Reasons:

  1. First and foremost, ceramic coating application takes TIME. The average ceramic coating installation takes about 10 hours… crazy right?

  2. Automotive ceramic coatings are the hardest, most durable and advanced form of paint protection that exists! We are talking YEARS of protection…. not months!

  3. And finally, in order to install ceramic coatings properly we put ourselves through some serious training. In fact, we spent about 90 days going through the most reputable online paint correction and ceramic coating training there is, as well as in-person training and seminars, and many years of hands on experience….. so at the end of the day, we are also charging for our expertise.

 
 

What Is A Ceramic Coating?

Because we are detailers, we're tempted to get into the nitty gritty of what a ceramic coating is and why it’s the 9th wonder of our Denver auto detailing business, but we don't want to bore you! A ceramic coating is like a thick winter coat you put on your kids before they go sledding! It's a hyper durable, and extremely hard layer of Silicon Dioxide (glass) that cures to the entire exterior of your vehicle's paint, glass, and other surfaces. Not only do ceramic coatings give you a rich, glossy appearance to the car paint that is absolutely unmatched, but a nano ceramic coating is designed to last somewhere between 2 and 7+ years depending on the coating you choose.

Ceramic Coatings Have 2 Jobs:

  1. Long term paint protection

  2. Beautiful gloss and shine (and we mean BEAUTIFUL)

How Does A Ceramic Coating Work?

After the ceramic coating is applied to the paint, it is as if your vehicle has an extra layer of ultra durable, scratch resistant, hydrophobic skin. Ceramics are designed to protect against everything that touches the paint from the outside world: bird droppings, bugs, rain, pollen, surface scratches, and much more. While normal auto detailing services can help clean and protect your investment until the day it's traded in which means more money in your pocket! Washing and maintaining your car is inconvenient and tiresome... So after we spend an average of $50,000 on a vehicle we slowly watch it degrade more and more over time because we just don't want to keep up with it. We think it's crazy to pay thousands of dollars for a car, drive it unprotected, and trade it in for pennies years later.

After the paint has been completely cleaned, decontaminated, and we've created a smooth surface through paint correction, a thin layer of the liquid ceramic coating is applied to the paint, left to cure, then carefully buffed off until all that remains is a thin ceramic layer that is left for 24 hours in order to cure. It's that simple.
