A professional SiO2 ceramic coating bonds directly to your paint and forms a hard, hydrophobic shell that repels water, blocks UV rays and resists chemicals for years — applied at your driveway.
Ceramic coating amplifies what's beneath it. We correct first.
Applied by hand, panel by panel, no shortcuts.
Wax lasts weeks. Ceramic lasts years.
Iron removal, clay bar, full wash prep before any correction.
We correct defects first — coating over swirls locks them in forever.
Isopropyl alcohol removes all polish oils for a clean bond surface.
Applied panel by panel, cured and inspected in natural light.
Our professional-grade coatings last 2–5 years depending on maintenance and the product selected.
Just regular washing with pH-neutral soap. No waxing ever again.
Yes. Proper prep includes decontamination and paint correction. We never coat over defects.
Yes — add-on coatings available for wheels, glass, trim and interior surfaces.
Oklahoma's intense UV, red dirt, hard water and temperature swings destroy wax fast. Ceramic holds up where wax fails.
Traditional car wax is a paste or liquid applied to paint that sits on the surface and provides temporary protection. In ideal conditions, a good carnauba wax lasts 6–8 weeks. In an Oklahoma summer — with intense UV, heat above 100°F, and regular dust and rain — it can be gone in 3–4 weeks. You're constantly reapplying, and in between applications your paint is largely unprotected.
Ceramic coating works differently. A professional SiO2 (silicon dioxide) coating forms a permanent covalent bond with your paint's clear coat at the molecular level. It doesn't sit on top — it becomes part of the surface. The result is a layer of extreme hardness (9H on the pencil hardness scale), hydrophobic water-beading, UV resistance, and chemical resistance that lasts 2–5 years with proper maintenance.
For vehicles in northwest Oklahoma, ceramic coating is particularly valuable. The UV protection prevents the paint oxidation and color fade that Oklahoma's sun accelerates. The hydrophobic surface sheds red dirt and mineral-heavy water before they can bond to the paint. Chemical resistance protects against agricultural drift, road chemicals and bird dropping etching. And because coated vehicles stay cleaner longer, maintenance washing becomes faster and easier.
Ceramic coating is a multi-step process — decontamination, paint correction, IPA wipe, then coating applied panel by panel. Stratton Mobile Detailing performs the full process at your location. No shop drop-off, no waiting days for your vehicle.
