Ceramic Spray Sealant

Up to six months of hydrophobic protection applied over decontaminated paint — added gloss, a slicker surface, and water that beads and rolls off.

What this service is

A ceramic spray sealant is a protective layer applied over clean, decontaminated paint. It is not a multi-year ceramic coating and we do not market it as one — it is a realistic middle ground that delivers genuine hydrophobic performance for months at a time without the cost and prep of a coating install. We apply it panel by panel and level it with fresh microfiber, which adds gloss and makes the surface noticeably slicker to the touch.

The benefit shows up the next time it rains or the next time you rinse the vehicle: water beads and sheets off instead of clinging, so less dirt stays behind as the vehicle dries and washing gets faster. Because a sealant can only bond to what is underneath it, we apply it after an exterior detail with clay bar — laying it over bonded contamination seals the contamination in and cuts the lifespan short.

What's included

  • Applied over freshly washed and clay-barred paint
  • Panel-by-panel application, leveled with clean microfiber
  • Up to 6 months of hydrophobic protection
  • Added gloss and a slick, easier-to-clean surface
  • Aftercare guidance so the sealant lasts

Who it's for

  • Vehicles parked outside that you would rather not wash as often
  • Drivers who want protection without committing to a coating install
  • Paint that has just been washed and decontaminated
  • Anyone who wants easier rinse-offs between details

What you need to have ready

  • An accessible outdoor water spigot at the service location.
  • A standard 120V exterior outlet we can reach.
  • Room to work around the whole vehicle, ideally out of direct traffic.
  • Personal belongings, valuables, and child seats removed from the vehicle beforehand.

Honest limitations

  • This is a spray sealant, not a professional ceramic coating — expect months of protection, not years.
  • It does not fill scratches, remove swirls, or correct paint defects; it sits on top of whatever is underneath.
  • It will not prevent rock chips, dings, or damage from contact.
  • It requires the exterior detail with clay bar first; applying it over contaminated paint shortens its life.

Ceramic Spray Sealant FAQ

How long does the ceramic spray sealant last?

Up to about six months, depending on how the vehicle is stored, how often it is washed, and what it is exposed to. A garage-kept commuter holds up longer than a vehicle parked outside year-round.

Is this the same as a ceramic coating?

No. A professional ceramic coating is a thicker, longer-lasting layer with a much more involved prep and cure process. A spray sealant delivers similar hydrophobic behavior for months instead of years.

Do I need the exterior detail first?

Yes. Sealant bonds to clean paint, so it is applied after a wash and clay bar decontamination.

Can I wash the vehicle normally afterward?

Yes. We give you aftercare guidance at the walk-around — gentle hand washing keeps the sealant performing longest.
