What is ceramic coating?
A hard, glossy protective layer bonded to prepared paintwork. It repels water and dirt, makes washing easier and keeps the finish looking new for longer. Usually quoted after the paint is assessed.
Signs you need it
- Paint looks dull even after washing
- Water no longer beads on the paint
- You want long-lasting protection on a new or freshly polished car
How it works
- Inspection of the paint and agreement on the level of correction
- Thorough wash and decontamination (tar, iron fallout)
- Paint correction if needed
- Application of the coating panel by panel
- Curing time before the car goes back on the road
You can choose a workshop visit or have a professional come to your home, work or depot.
How much does it cost?
The exact price depends on your vehicle and the job. On MYLES, each professional shows a fixed price, a starting price, a range, or sends a quote — so you can compare like for like before you book.
- Size of the vehicle
- Paint condition and how much correction is needed
- Product and number of layers
Tips
- Wash with a pH-neutral shampoo and avoid automatic brush washes
- Ask how long the coating needs to cure before washing
- Keep the aftercare sheet from your provider
Why it matters
A coating protects your paint from UV, bird droppings and grime, and makes every wash quicker — protecting the value of your vehicle.
