Premium Protection
Ceramic Coating
McKinney, TX
Professional-grade titanium ceramic coatings that provide 3–10 years of paint protection with a permanent hydrophobic finish. Applied by a Marine veteran with product-chemistry expertise.
What Is Ceramic Coating?
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to a vehicle's exterior surfaces that chemically bonds with the factory clear coat, creating a permanent or semi-permanent layer of protection. Unlike traditional wax or sealant that sits on top of the paint and washes away over weeks, ceramic coating becomes part of the paint surface itself.
At AquaLux Auto Detailing, we use professional-grade titanium ceramic coatings that are not available to consumers. These coatings provide superior hardness (9H rated), deeper gloss, and significantly longer protection than anything you can buy at an auto parts store. Our coating options range from 3-year to 10-year protection tiers.
Every ceramic coating application at AquaLux includes full paint correction as a prerequisite. Applying ceramic coating over swirl marks, scratches, or oxidation would permanently seal those imperfections under the coating. That's why we correct the paint first, then lock in that perfect finish with ceramic protection.
Benefits of Professional Ceramic Coating
Hydrophobic Finish
Water beads and sheets off the surface, carrying dirt and contaminants with it. Your car stays cleaner longer between washes.
Environmental Protection
Shields against environmental contaminants, oxidation, fading, and clear coat failure — especially critical in the harsh Texas climate.
Chemical Resistance
Protects against bird droppings, tree sap, bug splatter, road salt, and industrial fallout that would otherwise etch into unprotected paint.
Enhanced Gloss
Creates a deep, wet-look gloss that makes your paint look better than factory new. The depth and clarity are immediately noticeable.
Easier Maintenance
Dirt and grime don't bond to the coated surface, making regular washes faster and more effective. No more waxing every few weeks.
Long-Term Value
Protects your vehicle's paint and resale value for 3–10 years. The cost per month is significantly less than regular waxing or sealant applications.
