FAQ
Ceramic Coating Pricing Questions
Pricing varies by vehicle size, paint condition, and package selected. Contact us for a personalised quote.
Three variables drive price: (1) Product quality — professional-grade coatings with manufacturer warranties cost more than "ceramic spray" products. (2) Paint preparation — correction adds labour hours. (3) Coverage area — paint only vs paint, glass, and wheels. A budget "ceramic coating" is a spray sealant product, not a cured professional ceramic system. The gap in durability and protection is substantial.
Every package includes full decontamination wash, iron fallout removal, and clay bar treatment as standard prep. The Essential package does not include glass or wheels. Protection covers all three exterior surfaces. Elite adds stage 1 paint correction. Signature adds multi-stage correction and interior protection. Warranty documentation is included on all packages. No hidden fees.
They protect against different threats and are priced differently. Ceramic does not stop rock chips. PPF does not add the same chemical resistance or hydrophobic performance as ceramic. Most serious protection setups use both: PPF on the high-chip zones, ceramic over the full car including the PPF. Contact us to compare packages.
Yes. Paint correction is a separate labour step quoted after inspection. The cost depends on vehicle size and paint condition. Multi-stage correction (for heavier oxidation, scratches, or buffer trails) adds more. We assess every car at reception and advise on what is needed before any work begins — no surprise invoices at pickup.
The Essential package covers exterior paint only. It is a genuine professional-grade ceramic application with a 12-month warranty — not a spray product. If budget is a firm constraint, start with the Essential and add glass and wheels at a later date. The coating products are compatible across service intervals.
Contact Next LVL Protection with your vehicle make, model, year, colour, and the package you're considering. We'll provide a specific quote within 2 business hours. For vehicles where paint condition is uncertain, a brief inspection at our Acacia Ridge studio allows us to confirm whether correction is needed before committing to a price.
