Graphene and titanium in Fireball's dual-bonded SiO2 formula. The graphene produces liquid depth and vivid lustre; the titanium adds hardness and UV resistance beyond a standard ceramic. 8-year warranty.
Talk to us Talk to usCeramic with graphene and 2%+ titanium - the titanium is the key addition. It reacts with UV light to break down organic contaminants before they can etch the surface; bird muck, pollen and tree sap start degrading before you reach for a cloth. Gary rates the finish as one of the best he has seen. 8-year warranty.
Scores are our team’s subjective assessments, based on direct workshop experience. They reflect how each coating compares against the others in our range — not against any external standard.
The dual-bonded SiO2 base is what most ceramics offer. Butterfly goes further: graphene produces liquid depth and vivid lustre in a way standard ceramics don’t, and titanium dioxide runs through the formula adding hardness and UV resistance. On dark colours and metallics, the result is striking -- there's a wetness to the finish you don’t get from a standard ceramic.
The hydrophobic surface means water beads and rolls away, carrying dirt with it. Your car stays cleaner for longer and is much easier to wash, without the need for constant waxing or polishing.

Butterfly suits customers who want something beyond a standard ceramic -- the graphene and titanium formula produces vivid lustre and liquid depth, particularly on dark colours and metallics. If you want a coating that does something with your paint’s depth and saturation rather than just sealing it, this is the product. The 8-year warranty places it one step below Dok Do in our range; the finish character is its own.
Butterfly started as a standard Fireball SiO2 ceramic and was developed into something different. The current formula adds graphene and titanium dioxide to the dual-bonded SiO2 base -- Fireball market it at over 90% solids, which is unusually high. We apply it as certified Fireball installers; the protocol is controlled and the results consistent.
Prices split by preparation. New cars under 400 miles need detailing and panel prep only. Used cars need at minimum a two-stage machine polish first -- that preparation is included and reflected in the price.
For used cars. Price includes double machine polish, clay bar decontamination, exterior detail, panel preparation, and a durable coat of Fireball.

I had the following products / services in Nov 24; Graphene coating, Hallo flex film coating on front nose, Wheel / glass coating, Leather coating. The added protection works amazing and after 4months the car still looks brand new after a clean. Great service and products from Gary and his team.

Fireball Butterfly carries an 8-year warranty. In practice, permanent coatings regularly outlast their official guarantees -- we’ve seen earlier Fireball products still performing well beyond the original estimate. With reasonable care, you can expect the coating to cover a full ownership cycle and more.
There has been hype, and some products that amount to sprinkling raw graphene into a wax. We were sceptical too. Butterfly uses graphene in a controlled formula -- we’ve tested it and seen consistent results. If you’re interested in the science, watch this explainer.
It depends what you mean by better. From our experience, Butterfly’s graphene formula produces depth and colour saturation in a way standard ceramics don’t, and the titanium addition improves hardness and chemical resistance. Whether that’s worth the step up from a standard ceramic depends on your paint and your expectations -- we’re happy to talk it through.
No coating makes paint scratch-proof. Graphene resins toughen paintwork, making it more scratch-resistant. Think “resistant”, not “proof” -- it sits on top of paint, which is still relatively soft.
Yes, and it’s included. Every Butterfly application starts with a 2-stage machine polish and clay-bar decontamination. Ceramic coatings seal whatever is beneath them, so applying one over swirl marks or light scratches locks them in permanently. If your car’s paintwork needs more attention, we offer 4-stage and 6-stage correction upgrades.
All our ceramic coating and paint sealant packages include a thorough 2-stage machine polish, along with a clay-bar treatment and panel preparation to ensure the surface is clean and smooth. This is ideal for newer cars or well-maintained paintwork. If your car needs a bit more attention, upgrading to a 4-stage or even a full 6-stage correction is easy -- we’ll guide you through the best option for your vehicle’s condition.
| Machine Polish Upgrade | Prices |
|---|---|
| 4-Stage Machine Polish Upgrade | £195.00 |
| For moderately aged cars showing signs of age or moderate neglect. Our 4-stage system removes deeper swirl marks, oxidation, light scratches, and dullness. It restores depth and clarity to tired paintwork without the full intensity of a complete restoration. | |
| 6-Stage Machine Polish Upgrade | £345.00 |
| For older or neglected cars with heavily weathered, scratched, or oxidised paint. Starting with a heavy compound to level down deep scratches and heavy swirling, we progressively refine the finish through six stages to restore colour, depth, and mirror-like clarity. |
