Ohio’s weather is unpredictable, but your vehicle’s finish doesn’t have to be. Our ceramic coatings provide long-lasting shine and superior protection against the elements. At Shep’s Automotive Detailing, we go beyond traditional waxes and sealants—our advanced ceramic coatings create a durable, molecular-level bond with your paint, shielding it from UV rays, chemical stains, and road grime. With unmatched durability and dirt resistance, your car will stay cleaner and look better for years to come.
What we'll do:
Wheels & tires will be sprayed down with a non-acidic wheel cleaner, and scrubbed thoroughly.
Tires will have a radiant dressing applied to them that will not fade, sling or stain with multiple washes.
We will spray the entire undercarriage of the vehicle.
We will remove bugs from windows, mirrors, grille, hood & cowl panel and roof.
Wash vehicle with 2-Buckets and industry methods.
We spray an iron remover on the entire surface of your vehicle to help remove and loosen set-in contaminants.
Using synthetic clay, we will remove tar and other tacky debris from your paint leaving it silky smooth.
Adhesive residue and most overspray will be removed.
We will dry the vehicle with a combination of towels and compressed air.
We accurately measure clearcoat on panels.
Trim, headlights, plastic door handles and any other sensitive materials will be masked off to prevent polishing compounds from coming into contact with them.
We will go over the vehicle with at least a single-step polish to remove swirls and light defects, If you believe you may need more than a light polish, please view our paint correction services.
Masking tape is removed from the vehicle and an alcohol solution will be used to leave a completely clean surface and remove any oils on the surface
Coating will be applied panel by panel to ensure even coverage, and to all trim, glass and wheels.
Performing a two-step leveling process, we will use a combination of towels.
Your vehicle must stay shielded from the elements for the first twenty-four to forty-eight hours after a ceramic coating has been applied, this is to allow the coating to adhere to your paint and be effective through it's advertised life.
