The difference it makes
Common questions
How long does the protection last?
This package uses Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light, rated for 5 years of protection with sensible washing. Regular maintenance extends it further.
How do I look after it?
Just wash it normally — no waxing needed. For best results we offer ceramic maintenance washes at £50 every two months, which keep the coating performing like day one.
Where does the work happen?
Coatings are prepped, applied and cured overnight at our unit in Bridgend. We serve the whole of South Wales — Bridgend, Porthcawl, Cardiff, Swansea, Cowbridge and surrounding areas.
My paint is quite badly swirled — is stage 1 enough?
Stage 1 handles light swirls and is included in the price. Heavier defects may need stage 2 (£450) or stage 3 (£600) correction first — send us a photo on WhatsApp and we'll tell you straight what it needs.
