Quite a few calls lately regarding dealership ceramic coating and how is it different to the Fireball ceramics we install.
A dealership "lifetime" paint protection packages do not include paint correction.
They only include a basic wash + clay bar + chemical decontamination, then straight into the coating.
• Why they doniạit include paint correction
Dealership paint protection is designed to be:
• Fast (45-90 minutes total)
• High-margin
• Low labour
• Applied by non-detailers
A brand-new car often arrives with
• Wash scratches
• Delivery swirls
• Marring from transport film
• Rotary holograms from pre-delivery buffing
The dealership coating is applied on top of all of this.
An independent detailer would normally perform:
• 1-2 stage correction
• Gloss enhancement
• Proper panel prep
• High-grade ceramic coating
DEALERSHIPS DONT DO ANY OF THIS.
• Your also required as per your dealership warranty to have the vehicle inspected every 6 months that you have to pay for.
