Ceramic Coating in Naples

XPEL Fusion Plus Ceramic Coating

A long‑lasting nano‑ceramic layer that adds extreme gloss, hydrophobic protection, and easier maintenance for years.

About this service

A liquid glass shield with a deeper, wetter gloss.

XPEL FUSION PLUS bonds at the molecular level to your clear coat, sealing the surface under a transparent ceramic shell that resists chemical etching, UV oxidation, and the swirl marks that come from automatic car washes. The finish you get back is dramatically deeper, sharper, and easier to maintain than wax or sealant could ever deliver.

Wax wears off in weeks. Sealants last a few months. Ceramic coating bonds at the molecular level and protects your finish for years. We install XPEL FUSION PLUS, an advanced ceramic system designed to outlast Florida humidity and year-round UV.

Before any coating goes on, we wash, decontaminate, and (if needed) paint correct your finish, removing swirl marks and oxidation so the coating locks in a flawless surface. The result is a deeper, glossier reflection and a slick, hydrophobic top layer that makes future washes faster and gentler.

Ceramic pairs perfectly with XPEL paint protection film. Coat the PPF and the unwrapped panels for one continuous, easy‑to‑clean shield over your entire vehicle.

Available add‑ons

Layer on extra protection where it matters.

Wheel, Rim & Caliper Coating

Ceramic coating applied to wheel faces, barrels, and brake calipers so brake dust wipes off easier and wheels stay cleaner longer.

Glass Coating

Hydrophobic treatment for windshield and side glass that improves visibility in rain and makes water sheet off at speed.

Interior Coating

Protective coating for leather, vinyl, plastic, and fabric surfaces to guard against spills, UV fading, and daily wear.

Visual guide

What ceramic coating actually adds to your paint.

A ceramic coating is not paint, wax, or polish. It is a transparent nano ceramic layer that bonds on top of your factory clear coat, sealing the surface in a glass like shell that is harder, slicker, and dramatically more chemical resistant than the original finish.

Ceramic Coating Stack

Hydrophobic Top

Slick surface that repels water, dirt, and grime.

Nano Ceramic Layer

Cross linked SiO2 matrix that delivers chemical resistance and depth of gloss.

Bonding Resin

Mechanical and chemical bond to your factory clear coat.

Factory Clear Coat

Your vehicle's existing UV protection and gloss layer.

Base Color

Pigmented paint layer.

Primer + Steel

Vehicle body and primer.

Harder than your clear coat

The cross linked nano ceramic layer adds measurable hardness on top of your factory clear coat, resisting the micro scratching that comes from regular contact washes.

Hydrophobic for years, not weeks

The top layer keeps water sheeting off the surface. Washes are faster, water spots are reduced, and contaminants release with low pressure rinsing.

Stays optically clear

Unlike wax or sealant, the coating does not yellow or shift over time. It stays transparent, so the gloss you lock in is the gloss you live with.

Why it matters

The difference you will actually see and feel.

Years of protection in one install

Ceramic coating is rated in years, not weeks. One properly prepped install protects your paint through multiple Florida summers with zero re‑application needed.

Extreme hydrophobic behavior

Water beads up and rolls off, taking dirt and contaminants with it. Many washes become a quick rinse, and water spots are dramatically reduced.

UV and chemical resistance

Sun fade, bird etching, bug acid, tree sap, and salt spray meet a slick ceramic surface instead of your paint. Damage that used to be permanent now wipes off.

A visibly deeper, glossier finish

Ceramic adds a glass‑like reflective layer over your color. Metallic flake pops, blacks look wet, and the entire vehicle reads as a fresh delivery.

What it protects against

Every threat your finish faces, neutralized.

A breakdown of the real-world damage we shield your vehicle from, every season, every commute.

UV oxidation and fade

Sun is the slow killer of paint. The ceramic layer absorbs UV before it can break down your clear coat or fade your color.

Bird droppings and bug acid

Both are highly acidic. On bare paint they etch within hours. On a coated surface, you have time to wipe them away with no damage.

Tree sap and pollen

Sap and seasonal pollen release cleanly off a coated surface instead of binding to bare clear coat.

Hard water spots

Water sheets off instead of beading and drying. The minerals that cause spots have far less surface to grab onto.

Brake dust and road grime

Iron particles and grime release with a low pressure rinse, dramatically reducing wash time and contact with the paint.

Light wash induced swirls

The harder ceramic surface resists the micro scratching that comes from regular contact washing.

Our process

How a ceramic coating install goes down.

  1. 1

    Decontamination and inspection

    We strip every previous wax, sealant, and bonded contaminant so the coating bonds directly to your clear coat.

  2. 2

    Paint correction

    Single or multi‑stage machine polishing removes swirl marks, light scratches, and oxidation. The coating preserves whatever surface we lock in, so this step matters most.

  3. 3

    Surface prep wipe

    Panel‑by‑panel isopropyl wipe down to remove polishing oils and ensure a flawless ceramic bond.

  4. 4

    FUSION PLUS application

    Coating is applied panel by panel and leveled by hand under controlled lighting, then allowed to flash and bond.

  5. 5

    Cure and aftercare brief

    Vehicle stays indoors during initial cure. We brief you on the first 7 days of care so the coating reaches full hardness.

Is this for me

Perfect for the way you actually drive.

Brand new vehicles

Lock in factory paint at its peak the moment you take delivery. The single best long term investment in your finish.

Cars that already have PPF

A ceramic top layer over film unifies gloss, adds hydrophobic behavior to both the film and the unwrapped panels, and makes washes effortless.

Daily drivers in Florida humidity

Salt air, pollen, and love bugs release cleanly off a coated surface. Less time washing, less wear on the paint.

Show cars and weekend drivers

Multi layer FUSION packages add the kind of mirror like depth that wins shows and survives years of garage time.

Warranty

Multi year coating, professionally registered.

Every FUSION PLUS install is registered directly with XPEL. The coating is warrantied against failure such as loss of hydrophobic behavior, hazing, or premature wear, when maintained per the included care guide. Our installer warranty backs the application itself.

  • Multi year XPEL coating warranty depending on package
  • Workmanship warranty on application and leveling
  • Annual inspection included to keep the warranty valid
  • Care guide and aftercare kit delivered with your vehicle
Aftercare

Keep it looking like the day we delivered it.

First 7 days

Keep the vehicle dry if possible while the coating reaches full hardness. Skip the car wash and avoid washing at home.

Routine washing

Hand wash every two to four weeks with a pH neutral ceramic safe shampoo and microfiber mitt. Two bucket method preferred.

Boost spray quarterly

Apply a dedicated ceramic boost spray every quarter to refresh the hydrophobic top layer and extend the coating life.

Drying

Use a clean microfiber drying towel or a touchless car dryer. Never towel a dirty surface.

Avoid brush automatic washes

Brushes scratch even ceramic surfaces over time. Stick to touchless or hand washing.

Annual inspection

Bring the vehicle in once a year for a coating inspection. We confirm performance and refresh anything that needs it.
