GTechniq professional ceramic coatings, applied with proper preparation — at your home or workplace, anywhere in Warwickshire.
The Honest Explanation
What a Ceramic Coating Actually Is
A ceramic coating is a liquid polymer — typically silica-based — that chemically bonds to your paintwork and cures into a hard, transparent layer. Once cured, it becomes the surface that takes the everyday punishment instead of your clear coat: UV exposure, bird droppings, road salts, tree sap and winter grime.
The result is paint that stays cleaner for longer, washes more easily, resists chemical etching and holds its gloss for years rather than the weeks a wax manages. Water beads and sheets off the hydrophobic surface, taking much of the dirt with it.
What it isn't: a force field. A coating won't stop stone chips or scratches, and it doesn't replace careful washing. We've written honestly about what coatings can and can't do in our guide, Ceramic Coatings: The Truth, and compared them with traditional waxes in Ceramic Coating vs Wax.
Preparation Is Everything
Why Professional Application Matters
A ceramic coating is only as good as the surface it bonds to. The coating itself takes an hour or two — the preparation is where the real work happens.
Full Decontamination
Iron fallout treatment, tar removal, snow foam and a safe hand wash, followed by clay bar where needed. The coating must bond to bare, clean paint — not to a layer of bonded contamination.
Machine Polish
A light machine polish refines the paint and removes oxidation and light marring, so the coating locks in a sharp, glossy surface — not dull or defected paint.
IPA Wipe-Down
Every panel is wiped with isopropyl alcohol to strip polish oils and residues. Skip this and the coating bonds to oils instead of paint — and fails early.
Controlled Application
The GTechniq coating is applied panel by panel, levelled within its working window and inspected under lighting for high spots, then left to cure properly. Temperature, humidity and timing all matter.

GTechniq Professional Products We Use
Honest Durability
How Long Does a Ceramic Coating Last?
The honest answer: it depends on the product tier and how the car is cared for afterwards. Here's what to realistically expect.
Entry-Level Coatings
1–2 years
Lighter silica coatings give genuine hydrophobic performance and easier washing, but with a shorter service life. A sensible option for lease cars or shorter ownership.
GTechniq Crystal Serum Light
Up to 5 years
Our standard professional coating. Properly maintained with pH-neutral washing, Crystal Serum Light realistically delivers up to five years of protection.
The Caveat
Care matters
No coating survives automated car washes or harsh chemicals. Neglect the aftercare and even the best coating will underperform — we tell every customer this upfront.
Straight Talk
Is a Ceramic Coating Right for Your Car?
A coating locks in whatever is underneath it — good or bad. So the honest answer depends on your paint's condition.
A Good Fit
New or Recently Corrected Paint
If your car is new, nearly new, or has recently had paint correction, a standalone ceramic coating is excellent value — it preserves that condition for years and makes every wash easier. For brand-new vehicles, our New Car Protection Package pairs the coating with removal of dealer marring.
Correction First
Swirled or Tired Paint
If your paint carries heavy swirl marks or scratches, coating it would simply seal those defects in — permanently glossy swirls aren't what you're paying for. In that case the right route is machine correction first, then the coating. Our Refined Correction Package covers exactly this, and we'll always advise honestly on which your car needs.
