Because we are detailers, we’re tempted to get extremely nerdy and dive into the chemistry of what a ceramic coating is, and why it’s the 9th wonder of our Murfreesboro auto detailing business, but we don’t want to bore you! A ceramic coating is like a thick winter coat you put on your kids before they go sledding! It’s a hyper-durable, and extremely hard layer of Silicon Dioxide(glass) that cures to the entire exterior of your vehicle’s paint, glass, and other surfaces. Not only do ceramic coatings give a rich, glossy appearance to the car paint that is unmatched, but a nano-ceramic coating is designed to last somewhere between 3 and 7+ years depending on the coating you choose. Ceramic coatings have 2 jobs:
1. Long term paint protection
2. And an irresistible, beautiful gloss and shine (and we mean IRRESISTIBLE)

It’s important to keep in mind that these are AVERAGE ceramic coating prices, and as we said, one of our favorite parts of the job is working with our clients 1 on 1 to find exactly what works for them.
1. First and foremost, ceramic coating application takes TIME. The average ceramic coating installation takes about 10 hours, and some ceramic coating jobs can take up to 2-3 days!
2. Automotive ceramic coatings are the hardest, most durable, and most advanced form of paint protection that exists! We’re talking YEARS of protection… not months like the traditional waxes and paint sealants provide.
3. And finally, to install ceramic coatings properly we put ourselves through some serious training. In fact, we spent about 3 months going through the most reputable online paint correction and ceramic coating training course there is today! Not to mention all of the time spent practicing that followed. So at the end of the day, we are also charging for our knowledge and expertise.
After the paint has been completely cleaned, decontaminated, and we’ve created a smooth surface through paint correction, a thin layer of the liquid ceramic coating is applied to the paint, left to cure, then carefully buffed off until all that remains is a thin ceramic layer that is left for 24 hours to cure.
After the ceramic coating has cured to the paint, it is as if your vehicle has an extra layer of ultra-durable, scratch-resistant, and hydrophobic skin. Ceramics are designed to protect against everything that touches the paint from the outside world: bird droppings, bugs, rain, pollen, surface scratches, and much more. While normal auto detailing services can help clean and protect the paint temporarily, ceramic coatings form a sort of shield that protects your investment until the day it’s traded in… which means MORE money in your pocket!
Washing and maintaining your car can be a hassle and time-consuming… So after we spend $50,000 on a vehicle, we slowly watch it degrade continuously over time because we refuse to keep up with it! Here at Kolo Detailing, we think it’s irrational to pay thousands of dollars for a car, drive it unprotected, and trade it in for pennies years later. We want to give our clients here in Murfreesboro, TN the value they deserve!
