What is a ceramic coating maintenance detail?
A maintenance detail is where your car is taken to a professional detailer, usually the one that applied the coating, and it is carefully detailed, the coating checked, any issues rectified and perhaps a top-up coating applied.
Some companies may insist on this as part of the warranty. It does make sense to do it, it is of benefit, but yes of course, it is an up-sell. Any business is going to want you to keep coming back and spending more money.
This is one of the reasons we offer our own warranties, we don't want to hold your warranty to ransom to make you come back. If we really needed to re-apply a top-up every six months, that would negate many of the advantages of having a ceramic coating.
With that said, a maintenance detail is a good idea once in a while. The top-up products we use such as Matrix Recharge Plus are exceptionally good... although you can buy this and apply it yourself. Maintenance details are good for keeping on top of specific problems like iron particles and tar.
We may well give our customers a special offer to give your car a top-up for your coating, to encourage you to come back. But you can contact us any time if you have concerns, and we will happily advise you. Ask us questions or send us photos and video via Whatsapp.
Now that you have a ceramic coating, we do recommend that you keep an eye on it, and if there are rough, gritty patches, places where water isn't beading up, or any other concern, get in touch and let us help.
