What ceramic coating is and what it does

Ceramic coating is a liquid applied to the paint that hardens over a few hours into a very thin, clear layer bonded to the surface. That layer makes the paint smoother, so dust and sand do not stick as easily, and water runs off in beads.

In Abu Dhabi, where dust is daily and washing is frequent, that means a car that stays clean longer, faster washes, and paint that suffers less from the sun and bird droppings.

  • Deep gloss that brings out the colour
  • Sheds water and dust, so washing is easier
  • Protection against UV and fading
  • Protection against bird and bug marks if they are removed quickly

Preparation is half the result

A coating locks in whatever is underneath. Put it on paint with swirl marks or dullness, and those faults stay visible under the shine. So we foam-wash the car, remove contamination bonded to the paint, then machine polish out light scratches before any coating goes on.

Polishing time depends on the paint. A new car needs a light polish, while a used car may need two stages.

How we apply ceramic coating

  1. Dark car panel covered in thick white snow foam

    Step 1

    Foam wash

    A full foam wash lifts dust and sand before anything touches the paint.

  2. Machine polisher with an orange pad on a black bonnet

    Step 2

    Machine polish

    The paint is polished to remove light scratches and dullness, so the surface is completely clean.

  3. Applicator block and small bottle on a towel on a glossy car roof

    Step 3

    Apply the coating

    Applied panel by panel with a special applicator, then levelled off at the right moment.

  4. Round water beads on ceramic-coated dark paint

    Step 4

    Cure and hand over

    The layer is left to cure, the gloss is checked and you get the car back with care instructions.

What decides the price of ceramic coating

Ceramic coating at our shop starts from AED 400. The price goes up with the size of the car, the condition of the paint and how much polishing it needs, the number of layers, the product and its warranty, and whether you also want the glass, wheels or interior coated.

Ceramic coating or PPF?

Ceramic coating will not stop a stone chip. It is a very thin layer. If your main problem is chips on the front from the highway, the answer is PPF. If you want gloss, easy washing and daily protection from sun and dust, ceramic is the right fit.

What many customers choose: PPF on the front, ceramic coating on the whole car.

Warranty and aftercare

Ceramic coating comes with a warranty from 1 year, depending on the product and number of layers. We explain what it covers and the care needed to keep it valid.

The coating needs time to fully cure. For the first days, keep the car away from water where you can, and do not use wax or strong cleaners.

How long ceramic coating lasts in the UAE

Ceramic coating lifespans in brochures are often based on mild climates. In the UAE, strong UV, high summer temperatures, sand and frequent washing all wear a coating faster. So the honest answer is that it depends on three things: the product and number of layers, how the car is parked, and how it is washed.

A car parked under shade or in a covered car park keeps its coating noticeably longer than one parked in the open sun all day. Hand washing with a pH-neutral shampoo keeps the coating working, while automatic washes with hard brushes and strong chemicals wear it down quickly. A quick top-up spray every few months helps keep the water beading strong.

We explain the warranty for each product before you choose, and what care keeps it valid. If you want the coating to last, the simplest steps are shade where possible, gentle washing, and removing bird droppings quickly. You will see it working every time you wash: water and dust slide off instead of sticking.

Looking after a ceramic-coated car

  • Do not wash the car for about a week after coating
  • Wash with a pH-neutral shampoo and a microfiber mitt
  • Avoid automatic washes with hard brushes
  • Dry with a microfiber towel instead of letting it dry in the sun

Frequently asked questions

How long does ceramic coating last?

It depends on the product, the number of layers and how the car is washed. We explain the warranty for each option, which starts from 1 year.

Does ceramic coating prevent scratches?

It reduces very fine wash marks, but it does not stop deep scratches or stone chips. PPF is the answer for chips.

How long does it take?

It depends on the paint condition and how much polishing is needed. We give you a time once we have seen the car or photos of it.

Can I coat a new car?

Yes. A new car is the best time, because the paint is at its best and only needs a light polish.

Can ceramic coating go on top of PPF?

Yes. It makes the film easier to wash, adds gloss and helps it shed water.

Do you coat glass and wheels?

Yes. A glass coating helps rain and water run off, and a wheel coating cuts down brake dust build-up. Ask us when you book.
