The process
Proper correction and application take time, precision, and the right environment. Here's how we do it at J.R Detailing:
01
Decontamination Wash
We start with a thorough multi-stage wash to remove all surface dirt, grime, and loose contaminants. This includes a pre-wash, snow foam, and a careful hand wash using the two-bucket method to avoid inflicting any new scratches.
02
Chemical Decontamination
We apply iron fallout remover and tar remover to dissolve bonded contaminants that a wash alone cannot shift. These are the invisible particles — brake dust, industrial fallout, and road tar — that embed into your clear coat over time.
03
Clay Bar Treatment
After chemical decontamination, we clay-bar the entire vehicle. This physically removes any remaining embedded contaminants, leaving the paint surface completely smooth and ready for the next stage.
04
Paint Correction
If your paintwork has swirl marks, light scratches, or oxidation, we'll correct these with machine polishing before applying the coating. This step is critical — a ceramic coating amplifies whatever is underneath it, good or bad. We want to lock in perfection, not imperfections.
05
Panel Wipe & Inspection
We wipe down every panel with an IPA-based solution to remove any polishing oils or residue. The surface must be completely clean and bare for the ceramic coating to bond properly. We inspect the paint under high-intensity lighting to confirm it's ready.
06
Ceramic Coating Application
The coating is applied panel by panel, by hand, using a specialised applicator. Each panel is coated, allowed to flash, then carefully levelled to ensure even coverage with no high spots or streaks. Depending on the package, multiple layers are applied with curing time between each.
07
Curing
The coating needs time to cure and fully harden. We'll advise you on curing times and what to avoid during the initial curing window (typically no washing for 7 days and, where possible, avoiding rain exposure in the first 24
What Is Ceramic
Coating?
A ceramic coating is a professional, long-lasting paint protection that bonds to your car’s clear coat, creating a durable, transparent shield. It protects against light scratches, bird droppings, tree sap, chemical stains, road salt, grime, iron fallout, and UV fading, keeping paint glossier and cleaner for years.
At J.R Detailing, we use installer-only coatings requiring proper prep and controlled application — far more durable than consumer spray-ons. With options of 2, 3, 5 and 7 years!

FrequentlyAsked Questions
-
A ceramic coating creates a semi-permanent hardened shield over your paintwork that wax and sealants simply can't match. It repels water, dirt, road salt, bird droppings, tree sap, tar, and UV rays — all in one treatment. Your paint stays glossier, cleaner, and far better protected for years. On top of that, maintenance becomes significantly easier because contaminants can't bond to the surface the way they do on unprotected paint.
-
It depends on the package you choose. We offer ceramic coating packages from 1 year up to 7 years of protection. The longevity comes down to the number of layers applied, the quality of the surface preparation beforehand, and how the car is maintained after coating. With proper care, regular maintenance washes and avoiding harsh chemicals, your coating will perform at its best throughout its rated lifespan.
-
Yes, and the most common reason is poor surface preparation before application. If contaminants, oils, or imperfections are left in the paint, the coating can't bond correctly and will fail prematurely. This is exactly why our process includes a full multi-stage decontamination, clay bar treatment, and paint correction before any coating is applied. We also use professional installer-only products in a controlled environment, not consumer-grade sprays, which dramatically reduces the risk of failure.
