Level 3 Ceramic Coating: 10-Year and Lifetime Protection
Level 3 is the top of our three ceramic tiers, and the only one that goes beyond a decade. It uses the same System X coating as Level 1 and Level 2, applied to a higher standard and backed for longer.
How the three tiers compare
Level 2 is the tier most Stanislaus County customers pick. Level 3 is for owners keeping the car long term, or for a finish that has to stay showroom rather than merely protected.
Who Level 3 is actually for
If you are keeping the vehicle five years or more, the longer coating usually costs less per year than replacing a shorter one part way through. If the car is a weekend or collector vehicle that spends most of its life covered, Level 2 is often the more sensible spend, and we will tell you so.
We fit ceramic coating in Oakdale and customers come to us from Modesto, Turlock, Riverbank, Ripon, Manteca and across Stanislaus County.
Pricing and warranty terms
Level 3 is $1,750. Paint condition on arrival still decides how much correction the car needs before any coating goes on, so we confirm the figure and the exact warranty terms in writing before any work starts.

Common questions
Is the top tier a 10 year warranty or a lifetime one?
There is one top tier, not two. Level 3 is $1,750 and the warranty on it is lifetime. The 10 year and lifetime options the old pricing showed as separate choices were always the same tier, and Evan confirmed that on 8 September 2026.
Is it worth going past Level 2?
It depends how long you are keeping the car. Level 2 at six years suits most owners. Level 3 makes sense when the vehicle is staying with you longer than that.
Do you correct the paint first?
Always. A ceramic coating locks in whatever is underneath it, so the correction stage is what decides how the finish actually looks. Level 1 is single stage, Level 2 is two stage, and Level 3 is specified per car.
How long will my car be with you?
Longer than a detail, because the correction work is what takes the time. We will give you a realistic collection time when we quote.
