# Is ceramic coating worth it in Florida?

> For a car parked outside in Florida, a ceramic coating is worth it if you want washing to be easy and the shine to last. It does not stop rock chips or scratches.

## What a ceramic coating does

A ceramic coating is a hard, clear layer bonded to the paint. Water beads and runs off, dirt, pollen and bugs let go more easily, and it helps against fading from the sun.

## What it does not do

It is not armor. It does not stop rock chips, door dings or deep scratches, and the car still needs washing.

## Why Florida is hard on paint

Strong sun all year, afternoon storms, spring pollen and two lovebug seasons all wear on paint. A protected surface handles all of them better.

## Do it right

A coating must go on clean, smooth paint. That means a full wash, a clay bar to lift bonded grit, and a polish first. A coating over dirty or swirled paint locks the flaws in.

## Our way

The Full Package does all of it in one visit at your home: the full detail inside and out, clay bar, polish and a 1-year ceramic coating, $550, any size. To keep it, the wash plan every 2 weeks is $90 a month.
