![Ceramic Coating Customer of Vivid Pro Auto Spa in San Diego, CA]()
"AMAZING! I recently got my 2018 Mazda 3 a five-star detailing service, and I'm beyond impressed. Mikey's attention to detail was impeccable! He restored my car to a condition that was better than the day I bought it, both inside and out. The exterior was flawless after Mikey completed the thorough detail and ceramic coating. Inside, the cabin felt brand new, with every surface meticulously cleaned and freshened. What sets this service apart is his use of premium products and a genuine passion for customer satisfaction. I can't recommend this detailing service enough for all car owners; it's a transformation that's well worth every penny!"

"I called Mikey to come detail my car since I had just taken it out the dealer, he was punctual to pick and drop off the car. When I saw the car after getting detailed and adding the ceramic coating it looked great, it was mind blowing how your car can turn into a mirror and show your reflection crystal clear! The shine on the car is amazing! I’m in love with the results! Thank you Mikey for making my car look great! I will keep bringing my q60 for monthly washes!"

"I reached out to Mikey on Instagram after learning about his services from a friend. He was prompt with his communication and transparent about his pricing. I was impressed by the work he shared online and thought his prices were extremely competitive for a 2 year ceramic coating and paint enhancement. He is extremely easy to work with and his work shows that he is dedicated to the craft. I can recommend Mikey and Vivid Pro Auto Spa without hesitation."

"Michael did an excellent job of removing paint from overspray that landed on my car when my building was painted, and did a thorough job to make my 11-year old SUV look good again. He was professional, courteous, and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Michael to anyone in need of his expertise and look forward to working with him again in the future."

"Michael reached out to promptly after I requested a quote. Explained to me the different packages he had and scheduling was quick and easy. The day of job he reached out to me before heading over and was on time. Job took about 3 1/2 hours which is typical for a car detailing and a ceramic coating. Overall he did a great job and the interior of my car did need some TLC and he was to provide that on the inside and outside of my car. Over all it was a great job and I intend to do either semi annually or quarterly light cleanings as needed. Would recommend Michael because he does good work and keeps it real when it comes to your needs. Don’t hesitate to schedule with him he’ll be there promptly and get the job done! Thanks again"

"Working with Michael was professional and quick. He was able to squeeze me in last minute. My wife had been hinting at getting the car detailed for months. Michael’s work is thorough and felt like we drove it off the lot. Highly recommend! Great guy too."

"Pleased with the interior detail and exterior wash. Our Jeep had seen one too many road trips with our dog (fur, slobber, and puppaccinno remnants). It was very easy to schedule an appointment, Mikey was an excellent communicator, showed up on time, and made it easy to fit the appointment in to my busy day. Will definitely use this service again!"

"I used Mikey’s detailing services and he did not disappoint. My wife’s car was the cleanest it’s been since before we had our child. We were impressed with how nice the car smelled after and how spotless the area around the car seat was. I definitely would use his services again for all future detailing."

"After being impressed with his work on a friend’s new car, I knew I had to be one of his customers. Went in for the initial detailing today and I am so impressed. I purchased the car about four weeks ago and it’s cleaner than when we left the dealership. My 2021 Trailblazer RS will be visiting for Mikey’s care monthly."

"Mikey's work is absolutely top-notch. He takes extreme care and no minute detail escapes his notice. All of the cars in our office are kept looking excellent, and he looks out for his clients. I didn't think my 2023 Camry would look better than it did driving off of the dealership lot ever again, but Vivid Pro proved me wrong. Thanks, Mikey!"

"Michael and his team are amazing! My car was so dirty since I've been neglecting it for the past couple of months. My car has been in construction zones, kids in the back seat, and lots of miles so it got to a point where it was almost embarrassing to drive... but after the vivid pro treatment my car looks brand new and ready for a photoshoot!! I can't thank Michael enough for his attention to detail and making my baby sparkle again and completely bring it back to life!! Thank you a bunch and I definitely will be using them again and refer them!"

Ceramic Coating FAQs
-
Ceramic Coatings are a liquid polymer that contain SiO2 (silica dioxide) which is the primary component of glass and is what gives glass its strength and hardness. This integrated SiO2 technology makes this product far more durable and hydrophobic than any wax or sealant.
-
Ceramic Coatings act as a Sacrifical Layer for your clear coat. Clear coats come out the Manufacturers pretty thin these days. Averaging about 1.5 to 2 mils. The average piece of paper is about 6 mils thick.
So the main purpose of a Ceramic Coating is to help prevent premature oxidation and fading of your clear coat.
They protect your vehicle’s paint from harmful UV Rays, weather corrosion, acid rain, industrial fallout, bird droppings, and tree sap. All these things, when left on the car, can damage your clear coat very quickly.
Imagine driving a brand new vehicle off the dealership lot, your car gets pooped on, and within a month that bird dropping has now etched itself into the clear coat because bird dropping become caustic in the sun.
A Ceramic Coating can fight that, and prolong the duration it takes to get through to your clear coat.
-
We offer Ceramic Coatings ranging from 1 year to 7 years.
Our 1 Year is our entry level ceramic coating. Best suited for car owners who want the great benefits of a ceramic coating but want to stay budget friendly.
Our most popular options are our 4 year ceramic coating. People who are leasing a car typically get the 3 year and people who are purchasing their car typically get the 5 year ceramic coating.
Our 7 year, 3 layer ceramic coating called Trinity, is reserved for those who want the absolute best protection and performance for their cars. We’ve sold quite a few of these packages and we’re not surprised.
The 3 Layer Coating combines the strength of our 5 year coating and the extreme slickness and hydrophobic properties of our 3 year ceramic coating.
-
Ceramic Coatings are considered Semi-Permanent. Hypothetically speaking, if you ceramic coated a car, then parked it in a climate-controlled garage forever, than yes, it could potentially last forever.
-
Ceramic Coatings help prevent Micro-Marring but they do not prevent damage from improper car wash techniques and running your car through a tunnel wash.
Following the 2 bucket method or a proper rinseless soap method for those living in an apartment, you can elicit amazing results without scratching the coating.
-
Ceramic Coatings need to be maintained with biweekly hand washes or touchless car washes with pressure jet sprayers to clean your car.
If you neglect your ceramic coating, it will clog up and lose its hydrophobic properties. Eventually if you never wash your car, the ceramic coating will become damaged from harmful substances such as bird droppings, tree sap and other contaminants such as industrial fallout.
Ceramic Coatings can take a beating far more than a clear coat can, but if you want it to last the 1, 3, 5 or 7 years, you still have to take care of it.
-
Biweekly hand washes using the 2 bucket method with ph neutral soap with no additives, Rinseless style washes or Touchless car washes.
Every 12 months we will need to perform a exterior decontamination wash to keep your Ceramic Coating healthy and breathing.
If you neglect to do this, your coating will more than likely fail prematurely.
-

-
The short answer is no. Sure, yes you can try it out but you would be playing with fire. When a ceramic coating is left unleveled, the solvent that carries the coating to keep it in liquid form until it is installed could potentially be left on the paint for too long, causing it to cure along with the Ceramic Coating.
This would leave rainbow-like streaks all over the car, and the only way to remove these are via wetsanding.
This is where it could become very dangerous, with an untrained hand, you could sand right through your clear coat in a matter of seconds.. and now you have to do this to the entire car.
So to answer your question, no, I highly suggest you don't try this at home.
