CERAMIC COATING PITMAN, NJ

Ceramic coating safeguards your vehicle’s paint by forming a resilient, shell-like layer that bonds to the top coat. This protective barrier not only preserves the paint but also imparts a glossy, hydrophobic layer that effectively repels water, dirt, and debris, ensuring your car remains stunning and well-protected.

When a surface is described as “hydrophobic,” it typically refers to the state of a vehicle’s paint that exhibits exceptional water-repellent properties. When water comes into contact with such a surface, it forms beads that effortlessly slide off the vehicle, leaving little to no residual moisture. This characteristic is highly advantageous in preventing unsightly water spots.

Yes! CDC Detailing will warranty your ceramic coating for up to the year coating you have received. However, in order to be eligible for the warranty, you must subscribe to one of our Ceramic Coating Maintenance Plans, which has us come on either a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly basis to service your ceramic coated vehicle. Alternatively, hand washing your vehicle on your own can be completed. No automated car washes are permitted.

At CDC Detailing LLC, we offer ceramic coating packages with 3-year, 5-year, and 8-year protection options. The actual longevity depends on the package selected, how the vehicle is maintained, and environmental factors. With proper care — including hand washing and annual inspections — your coating can last the full duration of your warranty.

Our ceramic coating packages start at $1,000. Pricing is determined by vehicle size (cars, SUVs, and pickup trucks) and the coating formula selected (3-year, 5-year, or 8-year). All packages include paint correction, wheel coating, trim/vinyl coating, and glass/windshield coating (5yr and 8yr only). Contact us at 856-979-8460 for a personalized quote.

The ceramic coating process typically takes 1–4 days depending on the package selected and the condition of your vehicle’s paint. This timeframe includes paint correction, pre-application inspection, ceramic coating application, and the curing/bonding period before delivery.

Yes — but hand washing only. Automated car washes with abrasive brushes will void your ceramic coating warranty. We strongly recommend enrolling in one of our maintenance wash plans (weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly) to keep your coating in optimal condition and preserve your warranty coverage.

Absolutely. Ceramic coating provides long-term paint protection that far outlasts traditional wax or sealants. It protects against UV rays, chemical contaminants, bird droppings, and road grime while keeping your vehicle looking freshly detailed for years. The investment pays for itself through reduced detailing costs and preserved resale value.

Traditional car wax sits on top of the paint and lasts 1–3 months. Ceramic coating chemically bonds to your paint surface, providing semi-permanent protection for 3–8 years. Ceramic coating also offers far superior hydrophobic properties, UV resistance, and chemical protection compared to wax — and it doesn’t require repeated application.

Yes — and at CDC Detailing, we include it in all our ceramic coating packages! Paint correction removes swirl marks, scratches, water spots, and surface imperfections before the coating is applied. This ensures the ceramic coating bonds to a flawless surface, maximizing both the protection and the gloss of the final result.
