Nobody in a Randolph Avenue flat garages their car. It sits out through every season, under trees for much of the street, and the owner has no tap to give it a quick rescue rinse after a bad week. That is precisely the car a ceramic layer was invented for: the fallout lands on the coating, not the lacquer, and waits harmlessly for the next wash instead of quietly etching in.
Coated paint also stays cleaner between visits. Road film wants a surface with some bite to cling to; a slick ceramic surface gives it nothing, so the car parked outside the block simply looks washed for longer than its neighbours.
The rider arrives at the bay with everything on the bike. The paint is washed, decontaminated and machine corrected until the swirls and old etching are gone, wiped back to bare clean lacquer, then coated and left to cure. You keep the space, the building stays out of it, and the car does not move all day.
We treat correction and coating as one job because doing them separately shortchanges both. Sealing uncorrected paint preserves its defects beautifully; correcting without sealing hands the fresh finish straight back to the trees. The £270 covers the pair, and the price never grows after booking.
