The short answer
A professional ceramic coating at Elite Coatings and Films costs $1,200 to $2,700 for a car, truck or SUV. That price includes the paint prep and a System X coating, done at our shop on US 80 in Statesboro, or at your place if there is a covered spot to work in.
Where you land in that range comes down to three things: how big the vehicle is, whether the paint needs a full correction or a lighter enhancement, and which coating you pick. You get the final number after we see the paint, before any work starts.

What moves the price
The paint prep. A coating seals in whatever is in the paint, so the paint is polished first. New vehicles usually need only a light enhancement. Paint with swirls and haze needs a full correction, which is why the correction packages start at $1,500. On its own, paint correction is $600 for a 1-step and $900 for a 2-step, and it is included in every coating package.
The size of the vehicle. A coupe and a full-size truck are different jobs. Bigger vehicles take more product and more hours, which is why each package is a range.
The coating. Max G+ is rated 10 years and Phantom 15 years. At the same prep, Phantom is $400 more.
What it works out to per year
A coating costs more up front than wax, but the cost is spread over years. At the starting prices, a $1,200 Max G+ package comes to about $120 a year over its 10-year rating, and a $1,900 Phantom package with a full correction comes to about $127 a year over its 15-year rating.
Real life depends on how the car is washed and stored. A garaged car that is hand washed gets the most out of a coating. The yearly inspection keeps the warranty in force and is the best time to catch anything early.
Coating, film or both
A ceramic coating keeps paint glossy and easy to wash. It does not stop rock chips. Paint protection film does: partial front from $1,200, full front from $2,200, track package from $3,000 and full body from $6,000, each topped with a ceramic coating priced in addition.
Many owners put film on the front and a coating over the rest. The ceramic coating vs PPF guide puts the two side by side.

★★★★★Bryant and crew did a great job on my 21 year old F150. It was very dirty and they brought it back to life. Great job.
