Ceramic Coatings

Ceramic Coatings

ColorAuto Detailing, Colorado’s expert in GYEON Quartz Ceramic Coatings. Our products, developed directly by GYEON, offer unrivaled protection, increased gloss, superior water behavior, and effortless wash maintenance. Experience the ultimate driving pleasure. *ColorAuto Detailing is Western Colorado’s only certified installer of Gyeon Quartz products.

What are Ceramic Coatings?

Ceramic Coatings, also called Glass Coatings or Quartz Coatings, are the most capable form of protection from UV and Chemical Damage we can utilize. The bonding molecule that provides the protection is SiO2, or Silica Dioxide. A solvent carrier is used to apply the SiO2 to the paint and other surfaces.

The solvent evaporates out and leaves the SiO2 behind to cure and bond to the surface. The Ceramic Paint Coating is then cured with an Infrared Curing Lamp to force dry the coating and speed up the solvent release.

Why Are Ceramic Coatings Better Than Waxes or Sealants? Are Ceramic Coatings Scratch Proof? How Long Do Ceramic Coatings Last?

The Protective Benefits of Ceramic Coating

ColorAuto Detailing offers highly durable, transparent ceramic coatings, which are mud repellent, scratch resistant, hydrophobic and much more.

  • UV Rays and Oxidation
  • Weather Erosion and Resistance to Water Droplet
  • Scratches and Abrasions
  • Bird Droppings
  • Tree Gunk or Sap
  • Bugs
  • Acid Rain
  • Dirt and Chemical Contaminants
 
 

Level 2 Gyeon Quartz Ceramic Coating System

5 YEAR + DURABILITY | EXTREME GLOSS | EFFECTIVE SELF-CLEANING AND WATER BEADING | EXTREME CHEMICAL RESISTANCE

For level 2, we use the Q2 Infinite Base Type 2, a ceramic coating that guarantees outstanding results. With its thick and glossy formula, this coating offers unparalleled hydrophobicity. While it may provide slightly less slickness compared to Type 1, it more than compensates with its visually enhancing properties, elevating the vibrancy of every color to new heights.

Perfect for hot and humid climates, it grants installers extended wipe off time and vehicle owners exceptional water mark resistance. For optimal performance, we can pair it with the Q2 Infinite TopCoat Type 1. Experience the power of ceramic coating with Q2 Infinite Base Type 2.

In the Level 2 System we also protect the wheel faces with GYEON Q2 Rim. Q2 Rim will protect the wheels from damaging brake dust as well as road contaminants such as salt and mag chloride while making the wheels significantly easier to clean.

We also coat the windshield in GYEON Q2 View. This glass-specific coating is designed to repel water and debris during inclement weather and significantly improve visibility.

This package includes a Single Stage Paint Correction that will correct any light to medium paint defects to prepare for the Coating. If severe paint defects are present, we will need to adjust accordingly.

Level 1 Gyeon Quartz Ceramic Coating System

3 YEAR+ DURABILITY | PH TOLERANCE: 2-11 | HARDNESS: 9H RATING

Q² Pure EVO is a remarkable ceramic coating that delivers an unbeatable combination of gloss and durability. With its high level of gloss and exceptional durability, this coating provides ultimate protection against environmental factors. It is highly resistant to chemicals, ensuring that your vehicle stays shielded from any potential damage.

NO GARAGE? NO PROBLEM!

All EVO formulas can be applied outdoors. Ensure stable conditions, never use in direct sunlight and check the weather forecast! The coating should not get wet in the first 12 hours after application.

EASY TO APPLY

Q² Pure EVO stands for pure ceramic protection. It builds a very thick layer, therefore requires only this single layer to be fully functional and durable. The now extended wipe off time makes it even easier to work with. The Q² Pure EVO kit includes an ergonomic applicator, which allows fast and effective application of the product.

In the Level 1 GYEON quartz Ceramic Coating System we use a single layer of GYEON Q2 PURE EVO. This is an extremely high performing ceramic coating for all vehicle types and is designed to provide high gloss and capable protection from environmental contamination that will damage the vehicles paint.

 

The gloss is intense and regular maintenance washing is also very fast and easy. We use the same Decontamination and Single Stage Paint Correction process as the Level 2 Coating System to enhance and prepare the paint. The Wheels and Glass are not addressed in the Level 1 Package but can be added separately.
