Ceramic Coatings Explained

Ceramic coatings for Cars have been available for close on 30 years now. Originally, they were invented in South Korea and have spread on from there worldwide. 


Here at Tiki Details, we have been accredited with Autobead and Coating Farm Ceramics . 


Essentially Ceramic coatings are designed to give high gloss levels, be extremely hydrophobic and offer a sacrificial layer that will take the brunt of scratches and protect your paintwork. There are a lot of misconceptions about ceramic coatings and mistruths spread across the internet. Some show videos of the car’s paintwork being set on fire and then extinguished quickly and many other tricks. 

The simple fact is that ceramic coatings are designed to bond to the paintwork with a 1–5-micron layer that is tough and shines. It will generally wear away over a period dictated by the longevity of the specific coating. Such as our 23 and 5 year ceramic coatings.


Many companies buy from the same sources from China, India, etc and re-label and sell at inflated prices. Most of these ceramics tend to be low quality and use a very basic formula. These tend not to have strong bonding agents and have very low Si02 (Silicon Dioxide), which is the main ingredient that gives the durability and strength to the coatings. With Autobead ceramic coatings which are proven ceramic coatings that give extreme levels of gloss and durability they also come with a warranty. 


The next part of the puzzle is professional application. There are many valeting companies that offer a plethora of ceramic coating solutions, some ranging from a £100 to £3,000. In some cases, it tends to be based on the value of your car, so it will be higher if you say you have a 2024 Porsche 911 vs a 2015 Ford Fiesta. Here at Tiki Details our pricing is by size – not by the price of car. We keep it simple.

Ceramic Coating FAQ's

  • What is Ceramic Coating?

    This is a question that we get asked by many car owners here at Tiki Details. There are various reasons to have your vehicle ceramic coating professionally applied and some are more important than others for different people. We will list some of them below and you can judge for yourself.


    • Long term protection
    • High Gloss
    • Highly Hydrophobic
    • Protection from environmental pollution
    • Stays cleaner for longer between washes
    • Easier to clean without using corrosive chemicals
  • What is most important for me?

    Whatever your answer, rest assured we have the solution from our extensive range and our experience of ceramic coating so many vehicles.

  • Easy Maintenance or Extreme Gloss?

    Some car owners are looking for a high shine above all else and for others it might be the easier maintenance angle. Here at Tiki Details, we can recommend the correct car ceramic coating based on your needs. For instance, if you have a weekend car that stays in the garage most of the time doing under 5k miles a year, then your requirements will be different to a daily driver doing 20k miles a year. Based on your requirements we can recommend the correct ceramic coating from our range of options. 

  • Why Ceramic Coat a New Car?

    We often get asked, is there any point to prepping and ceramic coating a brand-new car. The simple fact is that in most cases the preparation from the dealership leaves a lot to be desired. Most are under pressure to get cars out quickly with the minimum of cost. This leads to poor preparation and in a lot of cases inflicting wash induced swirl marks and scratches. The Tesla Model 3 in the video above is a prime example of this. We were contacted by the owner of the car to see if he could rectify and protect the car for long term protection.


    A two-stage paint correction was carried out, 1st stage to remove all the scratches and 2nd stage to bring the paintwork up to a high shine before the ceramic coating was applied. We treated with the Tesla Model 3 to Coating Farm Ceramics Alphacoat Hybrid, 5 Year, Dual Layer ceramic coating to the paintwork. Watch the video below to see all the steps taken by us to make it into ‘showroom condition’.
