Professional Ceramic Coating in Washington, MI

Premium ceramic coatings professionally applied by trusted installers. We protect your paint from UV, chemicals, swirls, and the Michigan weather — and it lasts.

What is ceramic coating?

In short, ceramic coating is what wax wishes it could be. 

Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that chemically bonds to your vehicle's clear coat, creating a transparent, hardened shield over your factory paint. Unlike wax or sealants that wash off in a few months, a properly applied coating becomes part of the surface, protecting your car for years.

Once cured, ceramic coating gives your paint a deep, glass-like gloss, makes water bead and roll off, and shields against bird droppings, tree sap, road salt, brake dust, and harmful UV rays that fade your finish. It's the difference between protecting your car and just polishing it.

What ceramic coating does for your vehicle

9H Surface Hardness

Industry-grade hardness rating means everyday contaminants, light scratches, and swirl marks from washing don't stand a chance against your finish.

Hydrophobic Water Repellency

Water beads up and rolls off, taking dirt with it. Your car stays cleaner longer, and washes faster when it does need one.

UV & Chemical Resistance

Stops oxidation, fading, and acid etching from bird droppings, tree sap, and Michigan road salt before they damage your clear coat.

Years of Protection

Depending on the package, our coatings last 2 to 7+ years, backed by manufacturer warranties from the brands we trust.

Why washington trusts us with their coatings

Most coating failures aren't about bad product, they're about skipped prep. Every vehicle gets full decontamination and paint correction before coating goes on, because putting a five-year coating over swirl marks just locks defects in.

Ceramic chemistry isn't forgiving either. Wrong conditions or timing means streaking, hazing, or coating that fails in months, which is why our team is trained and certified by the brands we install. We only use top-shelf SiO₂ formulas from Gtechniq, Ceramic Pro, and other brands backed by real manufacturer warranties. Cheaper coatings last less. Ours perform.

We recommend based on your car and your goals, not on what costs the most. And because Ben's Auto Spa is right here on Van Dyke Avenue in Washington, the same person who quoted your job is the one applying the coating, and the one who'll pick up the phone six months down the road.

Good ceramic coating doesn't happen by accident. It happens because someone took the time to do it right, the first time.

Common questions about ceramic coating

How long does ceramic coating last?

Depending on the package and how you care for it, our coatings last anywhere from 2 to 7+ years. Quality coating plus proper maintenance gives the longest life.

Is ceramic coating the same as paint protection film (PPF)?

No, but they work well together. Ceramic coating is a chemical shield against UV, water spots, and contaminants. PPF is a physical film that absorbs rock chips. Many customers do both.

Will ceramic coating prevent scratches?

It significantly reduces light scratches and swirl marks from washing and everyday use. It won't stop deep scratches or rock chips. For that, you want PPF.

Can I wash my car right after the coating is applied?

No. Wait at least 7 days before washing, and avoid rain for the first 24 to 48 hours if possible. The coating needs time to fully cure. Full aftercare instructions come with every install.

How long does the installation take?

For most vehicles, 1 to 3 days depending on the package and how much paint correction is needed. We'll quote an exact timeframe when you bring the vehicle in.

Will it change the color of my car?

It deepens and enhances your existing paint color, giving it a noticeably wetter, glossier look. It won't change the actual color of your vehicle.
