When choosing which package might be best for you and your vehicle, there are a few things to keep in mind.
*The Truck in the video to the right was left unattended in a Shipyard for 2-weeks while the owner was in France working. Upon his return, he noticed they had painted some ships resulting in his truck being covered in Paint Overspray. The windows, the Trim, the Paint; it was EVERYWHERE. The truck felt like sandpaper. The Video is the Result of a 2-Day Paint Correction on the truck. We spent 7hours Claybarring to remove all the Overspray. which is 4-5x longer than a normal vehicle takes. After getting 95% of the Overspray removed from the paint, we polished it out to correct for a lot of the small scratches and swirls. Then, we finished it off with a 7-Year Graphene Paint Protection Coating. We can't fix everything, but we can fix a lot! Notice in the video how smooth, and clean everything is now.
"Decontamination" - If your vehicle is more than a few years old, more than likely you have paint contamination... actually, I guarantee it. 'The Decontamination Package' will result in a very smooth, clean finish. You'll know if you need this package by first washing your car. With a clean car, run the BACK of your hand over a section of hood, roof, or fender. If it's anything but absolutely glass smooth, you have contaminants embedded in the paint. Clean paint should be smooth. The more contaminated it is, the grittier it will feel. Using a Claybar (literally Clay, but automotive Grade), we will rub it across the surface pulling embedded contaminants from your paint. Removing all these contaminants brings your surface back to smooth! Once we've removed all these intrusive contaminants, it's time to protect it! Now is when we apply a 12-Month Ceramic Spray to keep everything shiny, smooth, hydrophobic, and easy to clean for the next several months to come!
"Paint Correction" - If your vehicle has scratches you'd like removed, you will need to opt for 'The Paint Correction' package. This package includes the Decontamination Package but ALSO includes Polishing out the scratches (aka, Correcting the paint). We cannot remove all scratches; I'd let to set that expectation early. We can polish out a huge majority of Fine-Medium depth scratches. If you can feel the scratch with your fingernail, it's too deep to fix without body filler (Auto Body Shop). It's also important to note the condition and age of the paint when Polishing. Everytime a vehicle is polished, a small amount of material is 'sanded' from the clear coat, or paint. You have a finite number of times you can do this before you're through the clearcoat, or on 1-stage paints, through the paint onto the substrate. Modern Dual-Action Orbital Polishers, and diminishing abrasive compounds make ruining paint much more difficult, but I still happen to see it nearly every time I drive down the road. This is a GREAT way to bring back that original shine, depth, and color to your paint. Often times, it will actually look better than it did when it was new, as most vehicles ship with paint defects.
"Paint Protection" - Paint Protection is the final coat applied to your vehicle. I essentially offer 2 different forms of paint protection, Hand Applied (Graphene, 9+ Years of Protection), and a spray-on Ceramic Coating (1 year of Protection). Both forms of protection are very effective and work very well. However, the Hand Applied Graphene will last 9+ years with proper maintenance (according to the Manufacturer). This coating was built and engineered off the backbone of modern day Ceramic Coatings, but with infused Graphite Oxide resulting in an even more durable, slicker, hydrophibic formula. The spray-on Ceramic Coating will last about a year with proper maintenance, but can simply be sprayed on again after a Maintenance Wash to be 'revived'. I have personally been running the Spray-On coating for the last 4-Years, and it's amazing. I simply apply this each time I wash, and it lasts forever!
"Graphene" - This is a relatively new product to the market, along with Ceramic Paint Protection coatings in general (think last 10 years). However, they have taken the market by storm and have proven to be a very robust, long-lasting form of paint protection. I personally use Adam's Graphene Advanced, Adam's claims 9+ years of protection. Graphene will seal the paint in its current condition, so I ALWAYS recommend a Paint Correction prior to Graphene, or any scratches will be sealed in for the next 9 years. I currently have customers on Year 3-4 of their Graphene coating, and it's still going strong! Graphene keeps the vehicle cleaner, it's much easier to wash, and water beads beautifully. You may have heard of Ceramic Coating your paint, Graphene is the next evolution in ceramics.
