Why Ceramic Coating Makes Sense in Cape Town?
Cape Town vehicles are constantly exposed to harsh UV rays, coastal air, dust, and environmental fallout that gradually degrade paintwork. Over time, this leads to fading, oxidation, and surfaces that are difficult to keep clean using traditional protection methods alone.
Ceramic coating provides a durable protective layer that helps shield paint from these conditions while making routine washing easier and more efficient. For daily-driven and premium vehicles alike, ceramic coating helps maintain appearance, reduce long-term wear, and preserve value in Cape Town’s demanding environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Ceramic Coating Be Applied To a Brand New Vehicle?
Yes. New vehicles can benefit greatly from ceramic coating, as it protects fresh paint from early UV damage, contamination, and improper washing. A light preparation is still needed to ensure proper bonding and optimal results.
Does Ceramic Coating Remove Scratches or Swirl Marks?
Ceramic coating does not remove defects on its own. Any swirl marks, scratches, or imperfections must be corrected beforehand through polishing or paint correction. This ensures the coating locks in the best possible finish. We recommend our level 2 or level 3 paint correction service for swirls and scratched.
Is Ceramic Coating a Replacement for Paint Protection Film (PPF)?
No. Ceramic coating and PPF serve different purposes. Ceramic coating offers chemical resistance, gloss enhancement, and easier maintenance, while PPF provides physical impact protection against stone chips and scratches. In some cases, both are combined.
How Long Does Ceramic Coating Last?
Longevity depends on the coating selected, vehicle usage, and maintenance. With proper care, ceramic coatings can last several years. Final recommendations are made after inspecting the vehicle and understanding how it is driven and maintained.
Will My Dealership Approve Ceramic Coating?
In most cases, yes. Ceramic coating does not void vehicle warranties when applied correctly. If required, coating details and product documentation can be provided for dealership reference.
Is Ceramic Coating Applied At Home or in the Workshop?
Ceramic coating is applied in a dedicated, controlled workshop environment by appointment. This ensures proper preparation, application, and curing conditions required for professional ceramic coating performance.
