Ceramic Coating · Napier
Salt off Marine Parade and strong Hawke's Bay sun are hard on paint. Niah and Ben apply a ceramic coating by hand at your Napier home or workplace, quoted for your car and the state of its paint.
The Package
One professional coating, applied at your place and quoted for your car. If the paint needs correcting before it is sealed, Niah or Ben includes that in your quote so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Your paint sealed under a professional ceramic coating, so it stays glossier, washes easier and stands up to the Bay's sun and salt.
Custom Quote
Set by your vehicle and paint condition, quoted by Niah or Ben.
Related Add-Ons
Extras are quoted by Niah or Ben for your car and done at the same visit where it makes sense.
What’s Included
The paint is washed and prepared so the coating bonds to the surface, not to the dirt on it.
A hard, slick protective layer applied across every painted panel.
Worked in panel by panel, levelled off and left to cure.
The whole job is done where the car lives, anywhere in Hawke's Bay.
Niah or Ben explains the warranty on the phone before you book, so there are no surprises.
Why Bay For Ceramic Coating
Napier was rebuilt in Art Deco after the 1931 earthquake, and the city still lives outdoors, with cars parked along the Parade, up on Bluff Hill and on the street all day. That exposure is what a coating is for. Niah and Ben wash and carefully prepare the paint, then apply the coating by hand at your home or workplace. The quote is set by the car and how much preparation its paint needs, and Niah or Ben will be in touch.
Marine Parade runs right along the sea, and on an onshore day the salt in the air settles on every car parked within reach of it. Add the strong summer UV of one of New Zealand's sunniest regions and bare clear coat dulls faster than most owners expect. A professionally applied ceramic coating gives the paint a hard, slick protective layer that helps it resist salt residue and UV, and it rinses clean.
How Napier Is Served
Niah and Ben come to you anywhere in Napier, from a driveway on Bluff Hill to the car park at your work in the CBD. Send an enquiry, you hear back from Niah or Ben to set a time, and the work is done where the car already sits.
What Napier Puts On Your Car
Stones, sand and salt water from the beach below Marine Parade end up in carpets, seat rails and boot liners. A quick vacuum leaves the fine grit behind, and it keeps wearing the carpet every time you get in.
Onshore wind lifts fine salt off the surf and leaves it on paint, glass and wheels. Left to sit in the sun, it dries into a dull film that gets harder to shift each time.
Napier Port is one of the North Island's biggest export ports, and the heavy traffic heading to it kicks up road grit. Wiped off dry, that grit leaves the fine swirls a polish later has to remove.
01
A coating is only as good as its application. It goes on panel by panel over properly prepared paint, then is levelled and left to cure.
02
Hawke's Bay is one of the sunniest parts of the country, and Napier sits right on the water. A coating gives the paint a buffer against both.
03
If the paint has swirls, Niah or Ben will tell you before it is coated and quote the correction, so you are not paying to seal defects in.
04
Niah and Ben apply it together at your place, with around five years of detailing experience each.
Hawke’s Bay Conditions
Four things cars here live with every day. Pick one.
On Unprotected Paint
Hawke's Bay is one of the sunniest regions in New Zealand, and summer UV is strong. Over time it fades and flattens paint, and dark colours show it first.
With A Ceramic Coating
A ceramic coating adds a protective layer over the clear coat, so the paint holds its depth and gloss for longer under a strong sun.
A coating does not stop stone chips or make paint scratch proof. It makes the paint far easier to keep, and far harder for the sun and the salt to wear down.
