What Is Ceramic Coating?
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to your vehicle’s exterior surfaces. Once cured, it forms a protective layer that chemically bonds to your clear coat, offering superior resistance against:
UV rays
Chemical stains and etching
Water spots
Oxidation
Dirt and road grime
The result? Unmatched gloss, easier cleaning, and long-term protection.

Ceramic Coating FAQs
Common questions about ceramic coating at ChattLuxe Auto Spa in Chattanooga, TN.
What is ceramic coating and what does it protect against?
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to your vehicle's exterior that chemically bonds to the clear coat as it cures. Once cured it forms a hard, hydrophobic layer that resists UV rays, chemical stains and etching, water spots, oxidation, dirt, and road grime while adding deep gloss.
How long does ceramic coating last?
It depends on the package. Our Bronze coating is rated for 2 years, Silver for 5 years, and Luxe for 9 years. Proper washing and maintenance help every coating reach its full lifespan.
How much does ceramic coating cost in Chattanooga?
Bronze starts at $899, Silver starts at $1,399, and Luxe starts at $1,799. Every package includes paint prep and polishing before the coating goes on, and every install is reported to CARFAX to support your resale value.
Is paint correction included with ceramic coating?
Yes. Bronze includes a decontamination wash, clay bar, and 1 step polish. Silver includes a 2 stage correction, and Luxe includes a 3 stage correction. Correcting the paint first locks in a flawless finish under the coating instead of sealing in swirls and defects.
How long will my car be at the shop?
Bronze is a 1 to 2 day turnaround. Silver and Luxe are 2 to 3 days because of the multi stage paint correction and the cure time the coating needs before the vehicle goes back on the road.
How do I wash a ceramic coated car?
Hand wash with a pH neutral soap and the two bucket method, and avoid automatic brush washes and harsh degreasers. Coated paint releases dirt easily, so regular maintenance washes are quick and keep the hydrophobic effect strong. Ask us about a maintenance detail schedule.
Can you coat glass, wheels, or the interior too?
Yes. We offer windshield and glass coating, wheel coating, and interior ceramic coating as add ons. Silver and Luxe already include coating on trim and wheels, and Luxe adds lights as well.
