Maintain It

All claims of durability depend on proper maintenance. Our maintenance service is needed every six months to keep your warranty valid. First, we wash your vehicle thoroughly. Next, we decontaminate it, like prepping for polishing, to remove any contaminants. We then check the paint to ensure the coating is working properly. If there’s any damage, such as a scuff from a shopping cart, we can polish that area and reapply the coating if requested. Before we return your vehicle, we apply Ceramic Sealant by Armour Detail Supply (ADS) to boost the current coating and prolong its protection. We advise against washing your car only every six months; a wash every two weeks or at least once a month is best for the coating's longevity. Fortunately, if you enjoy washing your car, the coating makes it easier, as dirt doesn’t stick to the paint as much and is simpler to clean off compared to unprotected cars.

If you click here it’ll redirect you the ADS online store, we recommend these products to maintain your freshly coated car. You can use code ZEALOUS for 10% off. There will be quite a few products on that list but I will tell you about the few must haves in that collection.

To start, use a pH-balanced soap, ideally between 6-8, to avoid harsh chemicals that could harm your vehicle's coating, plastics, and rubbers. The ceramic coating's properties mean strong chemicals aren't necessary. I recommend ADS’ Shampoo+, which contains high-quality surfactants that provide excellent lubrication to prevent swirls on freshly corrected paint. Pair it with their soft wash pad, designed with microfiber strands to safely lift dirt without scratching.

After washing and rinsing, dry the car with a good microfiber Drying Towel. The microfiber will capture any missed dirt, ensuring a thorough clean. I also suggest using Amplify Quick Detailer after each wash to enhance gloss and improve the drying process. Spray it on while the car is still wet and dry with the towel for the best results.

If you'd rather not detail your vehicle yourself, our mobile detailing service is a great alternative. Our popular maintenance detail includes a thorough exterior clean using these high-quality products to prevent swirl marks, followed by vacuuming and wiping down the interior. We finish with a coat of Amplify for a polished look. Contact us to schedule your service.

  • No they are not. While a coating is harder than the clear coat the paint is still prone to scratching. In the long run there will be less scratches because you won’t have to touch the paint as much.

  • Technically you can. It is not always recommended. It won’t harm the coating in any way but the coatings’ properties are superior and would just mask the coating. Both Amplify and Ceramic Sealant are on the other hand compatible with your coating.

  • Ceramic coated or not express car washes are not good for the paint. There are risks of scratching on the paint. At the very least if needed please use a self serve car wash.
