Ceramic Coating Advantages

3 Reasons You Should Invest in Ceramic Coating

Lasting Shine

Ceramic coating keeps your car looking freshly polished day after day. It locks in a deep, glossy finish so your paint really pops in the Little Rock sun. You’ll spend less time worrying about dull spots and more time enjoying a ride that looks incredible wherever you go.

Easy Cleaning

When your car’s coated, dirt and grime slide right off. That means washing is quicker, easier, and less of a chore. Even after a rainy day or a dusty drive, your vehicle stays looking cleaner, so you can spend your weekends on things you actually enjoy.

UV and Environmental Defense

Little Rock sun can be tough on paint, and the road brings its share of grime and debris. Ceramic coating helps your car handle the elements better, reducing fading and keeping the color vibrant. It helps your car look great no matter the weather or season. 

After Service Care

5 Ceramic Coating Car Care Tips

  • 1. Wait for Full Cure

    After your ceramic coating is applied, give it time to fully cure. Avoid washing, waxing, or exposing your car to harsh conditions for at least a week. This allows the coating to bond completely with the paint and ensures maximum shine and durability. 


    Note: Modesta is the only coating that is cured for water when it leaves us. No soap or chemicals on the coating for a week after the heat cure.

  • 2. Wash with Care

    Stick to gentle hand washes using pH-neutral soap and microfiber towels. Avoid automatic car washes with brushes, abrasive sponges, or strong chemicals. Regular, careful washing helps maintain gloss without compromising the coating. 

  • 3. Avoid Harsh Chemicals

    Skip aggressive cleaners, solvents, or acidic detailing sprays. Even common products like degreasers can break down the coating over time. Use products formulated for ceramic-coated vehicles to keep your finish looking flawless. 

  • 4. Dry Properly

    After washing, always dry your car with a soft microfiber towel or a quality drying system. Letting water air-dry can leave spots, while rubbing too hard can cause scratches. Proper drying keeps the coating smooth and streak-free. 

  • 5. Regular Inspections

    Take a moment every few weeks to check your vehicle for water spots, debris, or areas that need a quick rinse. Regular attention helps prevent buildup and keeps your ceramic coating performing its best for years to come.

Ceramic Coating FAQs

Answering Customers’ Top 5 Ceramic Coating Questions

  • 1. What is ceramic coating and how does it work?

    Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to your vehicle’s exterior that bonds with the paint. Once cured, it creates a glossy layer that makes dirt, water, and road grime easier to clean off. It enhances your car’s look while keeping it looking polished with minimal maintenance. 

  • 2. How long does ceramic coating last?

    The lifespan of ceramic coating depends on the package and how well you care for your vehicle. Our coatings can last anywhere from a few years up to 10 years with the right care. Regular washes and avoiding harsh chemicals help maintain the glossy finish and performance

  • 3. Can ceramic coating be applied to any vehicle?

    Yes, ceramic coating can be applied to nearly any car, truck, or SUV. We custom-fit the process based on the vehicle’s condition, including paint correction. Coating works well on new cars, older vehicles, and even custom or high-end finishes, helping them stay vibrant and polished. 

  • 4. How do I maintain a ceramic-coated vehicle?

    Maintenance is simple but important. Regular hand washes using pH-neutral soap and microfiber towels will keep your car looking great. Avoid harsh chemicals, automatic brushes, or abrasive materials that can dull the finish. A quick rinse or wash every couple of weeks is usually enough to maintain shine. 

  • 5. Is ceramic coating worth it in Little Rock?

    Absolutely. The combination of hot sun, humidity, and dust in the area can take a toll on your vehicle’s paint. Ceramic coating helps your car look cleaner, shinier, and well-cared-for, which helps your investment last longer. It’s a smart choice for anyone who wants to keep their car looking great without constant upkeep.
