Time Investment: How Long Does Ceramic Coating Really Take?
If you're considering the magic of
ceramic coating for your vehicle, one of the burning questions on your mind might be, "How long does it take?" The answer, like many things in the world of auto detailing, is a bit nuanced. In some cases, like our recent encounter with a vintage Lotus Elise from 2006, the process of coating the car becomes more intricate. This beauty sported 18-year-old
paint protection film (PPF), requiring over 25 man-hours for its careful removal. Yes, you read that right—25 hours! Dealing with aged PPF is no walk in the park, but the results are undeniably worth the effort.


At superior detailer, we take pride in the meticulous application of ceramic coatings, ensuring your vehicle gets the royal treatment it deserves. Let's delve into the time investment and the factors that influence it.
The Basics:
On average, the application of ceramic coating can take anywhere from 4 to 11 hours. This includes thorough surface preparation, coating application, and curing time. However, the specific needs of each vehicle can significantly impact this timeframe.
Vehicle Size and Condition:
The size and current condition of your vehicle also play a role. Larger vehicles or those with extensive surfaces may require additional time to ensure every nook and cranny receives the attention it deserves.
Customization and Extras:
If you opt for additional services, such as wheel coating or intricate detailing, the clock continues to tick. Each added layer of customization contributes to the overall duration.
Patience Pays Off:
While the process may take a significant chunk of time, the benefits far outweigh the investment. Ceramic coatings provide long-lasting protection, enhancing your vehicle's appearance and shielding it from the elements.
So, the next time you're contemplating a ceramic coating for your prized possession, remember—it's not just a treatment; it's a dedication to perfection.
