Скачать или смотреть Detailing After Dark: The Professional Ceramic Coating Process (Why Prep Matters)

Ceramic coating isn’t just a product — it’s a process.
And without that process, the coating doesn’t perform the way it’s supposed to.

In this episode of Detailing After Dark, I walk through why ceramic coating requires professional-level preparation, what happens before, during, and after the service, and why skipping steps leads to poor results and false expectations.

This episode covers:

Why paint correction is required before ceramic coating

How light swirls and surface defects are removed safely

Why deep scratches and gouges are sometimes left alone

The dangers of over-cutting paint just to chase perfection

What happens during the ceramic coating application

Why the curing period matters and why customers must wait about a week

What ceramic coating is designed to protect against — and its limitations

Why professionals sell process, not promises

Ceramic coating is about surface integrity, chemical resistance, and long-term maintenance, not invincibility.
A professional detailer’s job is to prepare the surface correctly, apply protection responsibly, and educate the customer — not oversell the service.

If you want to understand why ceramic coating costs what it does, and why shortcuts don’t belong in professional detailing, this episode is for you.
