What happens if i damage my ceramic coating?
Quick answer: Don’t worry - if a ceramic coating is marked, etched or scuffed, it can be corrected. The usual fix is to machine-polish the affected area, which removes the coating there, then reapply; if the paint is scratched, that must be corrected first. Spot repairs are normally all that’s needed - a full strip and re-coat is only for widespread damage.
Depending on the extent of the damage.
If you get a slight scratch, we can try to polish out the damage and then reapply the coating. If it doesn't polish out, we may be able to reduce the visibility of the scratch and/or touch it in. Again, we would reapply the coating.
In the case of scuffs on bumpers or crash damage, you might need to have a smart repair or body shop repair, in which case we can re-apply the ceramic coating about a week later once the paint has had a chance to cure.
In either case, you would pay for the cost of re-application to the localized area, in addition to the cost of repair.
