Precision Care, from Prep to Finish 

A Step-by-Step Approach to Our Ceramic Coating Process 

At Vivid Detailing & Customs in Oconomowoc, WI, we sweat the small stuff, because the details matter. Ceramic coating isn’t your average car wash add-on, it’s a performance finish. Here’s how we get it done.


  • Thorough Wash: We start by scrubbing down your car to get rid of any dirt or old residue, prepping it for the next steps. 
  • Paint Correction: Got swirl marks or scratches? No problem. We’ll smooth out those imperfections for a flawless base. Ceramic coating works best on a near-perfect paint job. 
  • Application: Ceramic coating is hand-applied for full, even coverage, making sure we don’t miss a spot. 
  • Curing: We give the coating time to settle in with the paint, resulting in a durable, glossy finish that’s here to stay. 


We use only high-quality products and trusted methods for every vehicle in Oconomowoc, ensuring top results from start to finish. It’s not just a job, it’s a transformation.

What a Ceramic Coating Actually Does for Your Car

What It Achieves:

  • Intense Gloss and Shine: It brings out a deep, rich gloss that makes your paint look better than new. The surface becomes highly reflective, giving your car that sought after wet look.
  • Easier Cleaning: The slick, water repelling surface means dirt, mud, and grime have a hard time sticking. A simple rinse is often enough to wash away most messes, making your car washes quicker and less frequent.
  • Resistance to Contaminants: It provides a strong barrier against things like bird droppings, bug splatters, and tree sap. These contaminants will sit on top of the coating, giving you more time to clean them off before they can harm the paint underneath.

What It Does Not Achieve:

  • It’s Not Bulletproof: A ceramic coating will not stop rock chips, deep scratches, or dings from parking lot mishaps. While it offers some scratch resistance against very light swirls from washing, it's not an impenetrable shield.
  • Water Spots Are Still Possible: The water beading effect is impressive, but if you let water sit and evaporate on the surface, the mineral deposits left behind can still create water spots. It's always best to dry your car after a wash.
  • Washing Is Still Required: Your car won’t clean itself, even with a ceramic coating. You'll still need to wash it regularly to keep it looking its best. The good news is that the process will be much faster and easier. Think of it as having a really good non stick pan; you still have to wash it, but nothing sticks.

Ceramic coating provides an extra layer of protection for your vehicle, but proper care and maintenance are essential to keep it looking its best.

Truth vs. Misconceptions 

Debunking the Myths About Ceramic Coating

You’ve probably heard a lot about ceramic coating. Let’s separate fact from fiction. At Vivid Detailing & Customs in Oconomowoc, WI, we keep it real about what ceramic coating can (and can't) do. No false promises, just honest advice.   

  • Myth 1: Ceramic Coating Is Scratch-Proof

    Truth: Ceramic coating makes it tougher for minor scratches to show, but it’s not magic, big scrapes can still happen. It helps reduce small blemishes but isn’t bulletproof. 

  • Myth 2: Ceramic Coating Means No More Car Washes

    Truth: You’ll still need to wash your car, but good news, it’ll take way less effort. Dirt doesn’t grip the surface like before.  

  • Myth 3: It’s Just Fancy Wax

    Truth: Wax sits on top; ceramic coating bonds to your paint. That’s why it lasts much longer, and keeps working, wash after wash.

  • Myth 4: Only for Brand-New Cars

    Truth: Any car can benefit. For older vehicles, a little prep might be needed first, but the results are worth it.
