Ceramic Coating & Paint Correction
A ceramic coating is a hard, slick layer which chemically bonds with the vehicle's clear coat, forming a semi-permanent protective layer. Water beads and sheets off, dirt has less to grip onto, and washing is quicker. A coating does not remove existing defects — it seals the paint as it is.
The decision is how much correction happens before it goes on: none, a single-step polish, or a full multi-stage correction. All three packages include fully insured, complimentary pick up and drop off across Tauranga.
All three begin with a full decontamination of the vehicle, so the coating bonds to clean paint. They differ in the correction that comes before it.
Most popular
From $999.00 NZD
Our most popular package. A single-step machine polish lifts light swirls, scratches and water spots, then the coating is applied over the corrected paint.
From $1,499.00 NZD
For brand-new vehicles with delivery kilometres only. A full exterior detail and decontamination, then an eight-year ceramic coating — with the wheels and glass coated as well.
From $2,999.00 NZD
The most comprehensive package we offer. A multi-stage machine correction over several days — upwards of 50 hours — removing swirls, scratches and oxidation rather than hiding them, then sealed under a coating.

New Vehicle Paint Correction
Straight from the dealer, this one still carried wash marring and light defects that only show under inspection lighting. A multi-stage correction removed them, then an eight year coating went over the paint, wheels and glass.
Cut, Polish & Ceramic Coating
Came in with heavily swirled and scratched black paint, worst across the doors and bonnet. A cut and polish worked through the damage to restore depth and gloss, then a ceramic coating was applied to protect the finish.
Cut, Polish & Ceramic Coating
Heavy swirling had dulled the black paint, worst around the badges and door edges where years of wiping had ground it in. A cut and polish worked back through the marring, then a three year coating was applied.
