How to get it

Comes with these packages

Ceramic coatings aren’t sold on their own. A coating needs properly prepared paint to bond, so it always comes as part of one of these.

Questions

Good to know

Why is the longest coating 3 years, when others sell 7 or 9?

Because that’s what a coating really lasts on UK roads. Road salt, fallout and traffic film wear every coating down, and the long warranties depend on upkeep most people can’t keep up. Gyeon Q² Mohs EVO is an honest 3-year coating that keeps performing.

Why are polishing and coating sold together?

A coating over swirled paint locks the swirls in, and freshly polished paint left bare starts to dull straight away. Doing both in one visit gets the finish right and keeps it that way, at one clear price.

How do I book, and when do I pay?

Send a message with your car and location and you’ll get a price and a date. A £50 deposit secures the slot and comes off the final bill. The rest is paid when the job is finished. The final price is confirmed once Buff Details has seen the car.
