Ceramic Coating in Davie, FL

Ceramic Coating for Davie drivers, installed in Davie

The Ceramic Pro Elite Dealer for this part of Broward is in Davie itself: 5150 SW 48th Way, Unit 614, south of I-595 near Griffin Road, a few blocks off State Road 7 with the Hard Rock next door. If you live near Nova Southeastern, downtown Davie or Pine Island Ridge, you are minutes away, and you can walk in Monday to Saturday and look at a car mid-coating before you book anything.

A ceramic coating is a hard, glossy layer that bonds to the clear coat and makes it slick. In practice that means water, bird droppings, lovebug residue and iron from the sprinklers sit on the coating instead of bonding to the paint, and they rinse off instead of needing to be polished off. The gloss is the part people notice; the easier washes are the part they keep noticing for years.

Ceramic Pro packages start at $499. Bronze carries a 2-year warranty, Silver 5 years, Gold and Ultimate ION a lifetime, and every one is applied over corrected paint, logged with Ceramic Pro and reported to CARFAX. Financing is 0% for 12 months and the inspection that decides what your paint needs first is free.

How the coating goes on

Two to three days for most cars. The coating needs a stable, dust-free room to flash and cure, which is why it happens in a closed bay and not a driveway.

• Free inspection. Under lights, with you standing there. Swirls, water spots and oxidation get named, because a coating locks in whatever is under it.
• Decontamination and correction. Iron fallout and tar removal, clay, then machine polishing. One stage is included in every package; heavier correction is quoted when the paint calls for it.
• Layering by hand. 9H base coats build the thickness, Top Coat brings the gloss and slickness. Each layer flashes before the next, panel by panel, in a climate-controlled room.
• Cure and documentation. The car sits indoors while the coating hardens, then the package is registered with Ceramic Pro and reported to CARFAX against the VIN, with the annual inspection date on your paperwork.

Why a coating earns its keep in Davie

Davie water is the case for a coating. The town's supply comes out of the Biscayne Aquifer through limestone, and even treated it leaves mineral behind when it dries on hot paint. The private wells that irrigate a lot of Davie lots are worse: iron in that water oxidizes on the surface and leaves the same orange stain you see on driveways and stucco. On bare clear coat that means polishing. On a coated car it rinses off, and that is the difference you feel every weekend for years.

Then there is what the roads add. Grit off the 595 and Griffin Road, lime rock from the western shoulders, lovebugs twice a year that turn acidic within a day, and a summer UV index that does not drop below 7. A coating does not stop a rock. It does stop the dulling, the water spots and the etching that a Davie car parked outside collects between washes.
