Gtechniq Ceramic Coating

A ceramic coating chemically bonds to your paintwork, creating a microscopic layer of nanostructured silanes and siloxanes which are as smooth as glass. This ceramic coating repels water and dirt, protects the paint from chemical and UV damage as well as creating a hard barrier which offers a level of scratch resistance.  If you want to find out all about them, please see our Definitive Guide to  Ceramic Coatings. 

Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light
The Pinnacle of Paint Protection

Crystal Serum Light slots into Gtechniq's professional range as their 5-year ceramic coating. 

GTechniq bullet

EASY CLEAN - SUPERIOR SHINE - Crystal Serum Light adds gloss to your paintwork, making it slick, so the dirt can't stick.  Water just beads up and rolls off, taking the grime with it. 

GTechniq bullet

SWIRL RESISTANT - This ceramic coating has a hardness of 9H, so it resists those washing marks which quickly age your car and dull the shine.

GTechniq bullet

5-YEAR DURABILITY - Once applied, gloss levels will remain in the upper 90th percentile for significantly longer when compared to traditional paint protection products. This product is backed by our own no-fuss, transferable guarantee. See our full guarantee.

GTechniq bullet

SUPERIOR PROTECTION - Unlike traditional waxes and sealants which burn off within a few months, Gtechniq Ceramic Coatings  can resist temperatures of 250°c, and because ceramic is an inorganic compound, bonded to your paintwork, it can resist corrosive substances of pH2 – pH12, making contaminants such as tree sap, tar, and hard water spots, far easier to remove.

Ceramic Coating FAQs

Are you a Gtechniq Accredited Detailer?

No, we aren’t. We missed out on the franchise for this area, but we are authorised to apply Crystal Serum Light. While you don’t get the official Gtechniq guarantee, we back it with our own 5-year guarantee. We are acreddited by Fireball, AutoSmart and Siramik, so you can trust us, we know how to apply ceramic coatings.

How long do ceramic coatings take to dry?

By the time you collect your car, it will be dry. Most manufacturers advise not to wash it for a week while it cures. We’ve noticed the finish even improves during that week, so yes — curing takes about seven days before it’s completely hardened.

If it lasts 5 years, what happens after?

The coating is permanent — it will still be on your car after five years. But constant exposure to the elements means it won’t be at peak performance forever. A garaged car lasts longer, and you can always top it up or even re-coat if you plan to keep your car for life.

Is it literally like a sheet of glass?

Not quite. Ceramic coatings are glass-like on a microscopic level, but they’re not thick like a lacquer finish on vintage cars. They’re nano-coatings, only molecules thick — yet you can definitely see and feel the difference.

Can I polish it?

No — we don’t recommend polishing a ceramic coating. Polishes are abrasive and meant to remove paint, which will damage the protective layer. With ceramic, your paint is sealed under a silica shield, so there’s no need for polish.
