Ceramic coating near me: Gtechniq protection that comes to you

Mint corrects the paint, then bonds a Gtechniq ceramic coating to it. Water beads, pollen rinses off, and the car stays glossy for years. Pickup and delivery included.

The problem

You love the car and hate watching the finish fade. Wax wears off in weeks, and every wash adds tiny scratches.

You shouldn't have to baby your car to keep it looking new.

When you need ceramic coating

New cars

Lock in the factory finish before it takes its first scratch.

Cars you plan to keep

Protect the paint for the long haul.

Dark paint

Black and dark colors show every swirl; a coating helps prevent them.

Street and outdoor parking

Sun, sap and birds are harder on unprotected paint.

Hate washing the car

Coated paint stays cleaner and washes faster.

After paint correction

Seal in the work so it lasts.

Our ceramic coating process

Certified technicians, professional products, and the same care in every driveway.

1. Decontamination

Hand wash, clay bar, then Gtechniq iron and fallout remover to strip the paint bare.

2. Paint correction

Plastics and trim taped off, then a two-step polish removes swirls, marring and light scratches.

3. Gtechniq application

Panel wipe to remove residue, then the coating applied panel by panel. Five-year coatings get a two-year layer on top.

4. Protection

The coating cures, then we add a ceramic sealant on top, a step manufacturers recommend and many installers skip.

Ceramic coating cost

Ceramic coating pricing depends on two things: how many years of protection you want, and how much paint correction the car needs first. A new car needs a light polish; a daily driver with swirl marks needs more. Send a few photos and we'll quote your car exactly, with no surprises on drop-off day. Mint Elite members get $250 off a coating once a year.

Ceramic coating vs. car wax

We sell both, so here's the honest comparison.

How long it lasts

Wax: weeks. Ceramic sealant: about six months. Ceramic coating: two or five years.

How it bonds

Wax sits on top of the paint. A coating chemically bonds to the clear coat.

Water and dirt

Both bead water. A coating keeps sheeting water and shedding dirt for years.

Chemical resistance

Coatings hold up far better to bird droppings, sap and harsh soaps.

Upfront cost

Wax is the cheapest per visit. A coating costs more once and replaces years of waxing.

Prep required

Wax goes on after a wash. A coating needs decontamination and paint correction first.

Ceramic coating for new cars

New car paint protection is the best time to coat. The paint has the fewest defects, so correction is quick and the coating locks in the factory finish before the first Atlanta pollen season.

Tesla, BMW and Porsche ceramic coating

Tesla paint is famously soft and shows swirls quickly; BMW and Porsche owners tend to keep their cars and want them perfect. We coat all three regularly, handle the screens and vegan leather with care, and include pickup and delivery so the car never sits at a shop you don't know.

I had struggled to get responses from other detailing businesses in town, but Mint's online booking portal and communication were top notch.”

Why not wait?

Unprotected paint oxidizes, swirls and fades. Once the clear coat is damaged, no coating can put it back.

FAQ

Ceramic Coating questions

What is ceramic coating?

A semi-permanent, invisible layer that chemically bonds to your paint. Unlike wax or sealant, it doesn't wash off, so it keeps repelling water, dirt and contaminants for years.

Is ceramic coating worth it?

If you plan to keep the car for more than a couple of years, yes. It replaces years of waxing, makes every wash faster, protects against UV and oxidation, and helps resale value.

How long does ceramic coating last?

Our Gtechniq coatings come in 2-year and 5-year options. With the washing routine we give you at pickup, they last the full term.

Does ceramic coating prevent scratches?

It resists light marring from washing and adds some hardness, but it won't stop a rock chip or a key. For impact protection, pair it with paint protection film.

Can ceramic coating go over PPF?

Yes. A coating on top of paint protection film makes the film easier to clean and more resistant to staining.

Can ceramic coating be applied to new vehicles?

Yes, and it's the best time: the paint needs the least correction and you protect it from day one.

Why does it take days?

Paint correction comes first, and the coating needs time to cure before the car goes back outside.
