Is paint correction included?
No. Paint correction (removing swirls and scratches before coating) is sold separately. A coating locks in whatever is underneath, so many owners pair the two. We’ll look at your paint and recommend what it needs.

Why shop-only?
Coatings need a clean, controlled space to cure properly, so we never install them in a driveway.
Coatings come with Gtechniq’s standard product warranty. See what it covers.
Common questions
Which coating should I get?
Keeping the car 1–2 years: GT1 or EXO. Keeping it long-term: Crystal Serum Light or Ultra.
Is ceramic coating worth it in Kentucky?
It makes pollen, road salt, bugs and bird droppings easier to wash off and protects gloss against UV.
