This KIA EV3 came into the workshop fresh, and its owner wanted to protect that Lithium Silver Metallic paintwork from day one with my New Car Ceramic Coating Detail. Getting a new car coated early — before it's picked up any swirl marks, road grime, or environmental damage — is the best way to keep it looking as good as the day it left the showroom.
How Long Does It Take, and What Does It Cost?
A New Car Ceramic Coating Detail typically takes 2 to 3 days to complete correctly — there are no shortcuts if you want the coating to bond and perform properly. Pricing starts from £460, depending on the size and condition of the vehicle.
With the right aftercare, our ceramic coatings provide anywhere from 2 to 5 years of protection, giving your new car a genuine head start against the elements.
Why Protect a New Car Straight Away?
New paintwork is at its most vulnerable in the first few months — before waxes, sealants, or coatings have had a chance to build up any defence. Coating the car early means:
- Contaminants, bird droppings, and road grime are far easier to remove
- The paint stays glossier for longer with less maintenance effort
- Minor swirl marks from future washing are reduced, since the coating adds a sacrificial protective layer
- You protect your investment from day one rather than playing catch-up later
The Result
This KIA EV3 left the workshop with its Lithium Silver Metallic paintwork fully protected and looking its best, ready to stay that way for years to come with the right care.
