Paint Protection Problems in Calgary

YOUR FACTORY DEFENSE IS
COMPROMISED.

Standard clear coat is only 2-3 microns thick. In Calgary's hostile climate, it is not a matter of "if" it fails, but "when".

Chemical Warfare

CRITICAL

Magnesium Chloride (road salt) is not "dirt". It is a corrosive agent that eats into porous factory clear coat, causing permanent oxidation within 48 hours of exposure.

Physical Abrasion

HIGH RISK

Automatic car washes use nylon bristles that act like sandpaper. Each wash introduces millions of micro-scratches (swirl marks) that dull your paint's refractive index.

UV Radiation

CONSTANT

High-altitude UV rays in Calgary degrade the clear coat's resin binders, leading to "clear coat failure" (peeling) which requires a total panel repaint.

Ceramic Coating Quality Comparison

NOT ALL COATINGS ARE EQUAL.

A $500 coating job isn't a "deal"-it's a liability. Cheap shops act as volume based assembly lines. We operate as a sterile laboratory.

We fix "cheap" jobs every single week.

High Risk / Volume

  • 01
    1 Layer "Spray & Wipe"Thin protection (less than 0.5 micron). Fails in 6 months.
  • 02
    4-Hour Rush JobNo cure time. Vehicle handed back wet. Bonding fails immediately.
  • 03
    Zero CorrectionCoating applied directly over scratches, dirt, and swirls.

Technical Analysis

UNDERSTANDING SIO2 TECHNOLOGY

Before making an investment, it is critical to understand the difference between traditional waxes and modern ceramic technology.

What is Ceramic Coating?

Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer derived from silica (SiO2). When applied to your vehicle's paint, it chemically bonds with the factory clear coat on a molecular level. Unlike wax, which sits on top of the paint, ceramic coating becomes a permanent part of the surface.

Why is it "Hydrophobic"?

The chemical bond creates an incredibly smooth surface tension. Water, mud, and Calgary road grime cannot find a foothold to stick to. Instead, they bead up and slide off. This is the "self-cleaning" effect that keeps your car cleaner, longer.

LIFETIME ASSURANCE.

We don't hide behind fine print. Your ceramic coating is backed by XPEL's Nationwide Warranty AND our in-house Craftsmanship Guarantee.

Retention Guarantee

If your coating stops hydrophobic beading before the warranty period executes (and you've maintained it), we won't make excuses. We will re-apply it. Free.

Craftsmanship Guarantee

Don't like the finish? See a high spot? We inspect every vehicle before release, but if you find a flaw, we fix it immediately. No questions asked.

The Foundation of Gloss

Perfect The Canvas.

Ceramic coating is not a filler—it is a magnifier. It locks in the condition of your paint for years. If you coat swirls, you lock in swirls forever.

Paint Enhancement

Highly Recommended

Even new cars come from the dealership with transport marring and wash scratches. A single-stage polish amplifies gloss by removing these micro-defects, creating a mirror-like finish that represents the true potential of your vehicle.

  • Removes dealership wash marring
  • Amplifies metallic flake pop
  • Required for maximum gloss reading
  • Ensures perfectly flat bonding surface

Restoration Correction

Mandatory for Damaged Paint

We operate on a standard of excellence. Wewill notapply our ceramic coatings over heavily swirled, oxidized, or damaged paint. Locking in damage compromises the finish and our reputation.

NOTE: If your vehicle is older or has visible "spiderweb" swirls in direct sunlight,Restorative Paint Correction is a mandatory prerequisite for this service.

  • Removes deep swirls & holograms
  • Resurfaces oxidized clear coat
  • Restores depth to faded color
  • Prerequisite for warranty validation

* Paint correction is a labor-intensive process billed separately or as an add-on package. It is not included in the base ceramic coating price.

Ceramic Coating Application Process

SURGICAL PRECISION.

We do not "wax" cars. We perform a multi-stage restoration and encapsulation process.// 90% of the result is the prep

01
STERILIZING...

Decontamination

Chemical Stripping

Specialized ferric oxide removers dissolve embedded rail dust and industrial fallout. We strip the clear coat down to its naked molecular state.

02
PURIFYING...

Exfoliation

Mechanical Clay Bar

Nano-abrasive clay treatment manually extracts microscopic bonded contaminants. The surface becomes smoother than glass to the touch.

03
RESTORING...

Correction

Paint Surgery

Machine polishing levels the clear coat to remove swirls, scratches, and oxidation. We restore the 'wet' reflectiveness before sealing it forever.

04
ANALYZING...

Sterilization

Iso-Propyl Wipe

One final panel wipe with pure pharmaceutical-grade alcohol removes polishing oils. The surface must be surgically clean for bonding.

05
CURING: 24HR

Crystal Fusion

SiO2 Application

The ceramic is applied in a cross-hatch pattern. It dwells, flashes, and bonds. The vehicle is then IR cured in our climate-controlled studio.

Knowledge Base

Answers.

The truth about ceramic coating maintenance, capabilities, and what to expect in Calgary's climate.

Yes! New cars are ideal candidates for ceramic coating. The paint is pristine, requiring minimal prep work. Apply ceramic coating immediately to lock in the factory finish and protect it from day one. For ultimate protection, combine with PPF on high-impact areas.
