$1,795sample
Three layers, wheels off, calipers, trim and glass.
What the warranty needsHand washes as above. Studio check-up every 12 months; miss two and cover ends.
Warranty terms (sample)
A coating is not armor. It keeps gloss, makes washing easier and resists UV and water spots. It won't stop rock chips, door dings or deep scratches; that's what paint protection film is for. The warranty covers coating failure under normal care, not damage.
Every handover ends with a walkaround under the same light.Aftercare
Keep the warranty, keep the gloss.
Arizona is hard on paint: UV, hard water and fine dust. These four habits are what the coating warranty asks of you.
Hand wash
Every 2–3 weeks, two buckets, pH-neutral soap. Rinse dust off before you touch the paint.
No brush tunnels
Touchless washes are fine in a pinch. Brush tunnels put the swirls straight back.
Dry in the shade
Phoenix tap water spots fast in the sun. Dry with a clean towel or blower.
Yearly check-up
We decontaminate, test the beading and top up. We text you a reminder.
The studio
Two correctors. Three bays. No rush jobs.
We book one car per bay, so nobody is polishing against a clock. Water from our wash bay runs to a reclaim drain, not the street.
Bay 2, with overhead light bars. Photo slot.

They put my black SUV under the light bar before quoting and showed me exactly which marks would go and which wouldn't. That honesty sold me.
Truck was a swirl mess from the dealer wash. One-step was enough, and they told me so instead of upselling the three-step.
Year-one check-up was booked by text, took an hour, and the beading looks like day one. Clear about what the warranty needs.
Questions
Straight answers.
Do I need correction before a coating?
A coating locks in whatever is under it, swirls included. Every coating here includes a one-step polish. If your inspection shows heavier marks, we'll recommend a two-step and tell you why.
How long will I be without my car?
One-step plus a coating is usually one day. Two-step plus coating is two days. Three-step can be three. Coatings need 24 hours indoors to cure before you drive in rain or dust.
What does the coating warranty not cover?
Rock chips, scratches, collision damage, and etching from bird droppings or hard water left to sit. It covers the coating itself failing under normal care with the yearly check-ups done. Full terms are on each tier (sample).
Do you come to me?
No. Correction and coatings need clean, shaded, controlled bays, so all work is done at the studio. We offer drop-off from 7:30 am.
