The smartest thing you can do for your paintwork. A professional-grade ceramic coating bonds to the paint and protects it for years — not weeks.
Pick your coating tier and car size — your exact price appears instantly, right here on the page. No surprises, no waiting; we text you straight back to lock in a time.
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that chemically bonds to the paintwork — unlike wax or sealant, it can't be washed off. It creates a semi-permanent protective layer that repels water, dirt, UV rays, and chemical contaminants. The hydrophobic effect means water beads and rolls off, taking surface dirt with it. The paint looks deeper and glossier.
Every Velux ceramic package uses Performance PPL REIGN, a 10H nano ceramic coating that bonds to paint, glass and wheels and cures quickly, which makes it ideal for mobile work.
Prep is everything — the paint must be properly decontaminated and corrected before coating or you lock in any existing imperfections. This is why final pricing depends on your car's condition.
Paint depth measurement, iron fallout removal, clay bar, and thorough prep.
Machine polish to remove defects (where required) — essential before coating.
Applied in panels, buffed to a finish. Precision application throughout.
Vehicle left to cure 24–48 hours before getting wet. Full hardness: 7 days.
Every ceramic package includes full paint decontamination and a Stage 1 machine polish (worth £349 on its own) before the coating goes on — proper prep is what makes the coating last. Deeper multi-stage correction, if your paintwork needs it, is available as a fixed-price bundle below — no separate quote needed.
For cars with deeper swirls, scratches or oxidation that need more than the included Stage 1 polish. This bundles our full Stage 2 machine polish with your ceramic coating at one fixed price — no separate quote needed.
Factory-fresh paint means no correction needed — every penny goes straight into protection. See our new car protection package.
Lasts 2–5 years with proper care. Far longer than any wax or sealant.
Hydrophobic surface sheds dirt and water. Less frequent washing needed, less elbow grease.
Protected, well-maintained paint commands a better price when you sell.
