Services
Window Tinting
Our 3M Window Tinting solutions provide superior heat rejection, UV protection, and glare reduction while maintaining optical clarity. This service enhances vehicle comfort by blocking up to 66% of solar heat and 99% of harmful UV rays. The advanced ceramic technology ensures durability and preserves interior materials from sun damage.
Paint Protection Film
Stek and 3M Paint Protection Films create a durable barrier against rock chips, scratches, and environmental contaminants. Our custom installations use self-healing technology to maintain showroom finishes. This service preserves resale value while protecting vulnerable paint surfaces from daily wear and tear.
Ceramic Coatings
Gtechniq Ceramic Coatings chemically bond to surfaces, providing hydrophobic properties, chemical resistance, and enhanced gloss. This service creates a protective layer that repels contaminants while making maintenance easier. The multi-year protection extends beyond paint to wheels, glass, and interior surfaces.
New Car Prep
Our comprehensive new car prep process removes manufacturing contaminants and corrects paint imperfections before protection applications. This service includes multi-stage washing, clay barring, and paint enhancement to create a flawless foundation. Proper preparation ensures optimal adhesion and longevity of protective films and coatings.
