Abbotsford, BC’s #1 Car Detailing Services - Mobile Option Available to Come to You!

This is not only a requirement, but it is common sense in the automotive detailing industry. X-Kote is the same as a factory clear coat, which not only corrects the issues with your paintwork but is a permanent application. Here at Diamond Shine Detail & Ceramic Coatings, I will decontaminate your finish before hand applying X-Kote. 

I get this question quite a bit, and always have the same answer. Public car washes do NOT compare to a professional exterior detailing service for two major reasons. Firstly, professional exterior detailing is safer than a public car wash, cleaning your ride without scratching it. Secondly, an exterior detailing package reaches all the unique crevasses and hidden areas of your ride that need to be cleaned completely, while a public car wash simply sprays a bit of soap and water haphazardly. 

With every interior detailing package and any vehicle restoration service in the industry, there certainly is a threshold of what can be corrected and what might need higher-end vehicle work. Most stains can be remedied by professional shampooing and conditioning; however, some that were caused by a tremendous spill may take more effort or need to be remedied in other ways.

Yes! When you come to Diamond Shine Detail & Ceramic Coatings of Abbotsford, your interior gets a complete decontamination treatment, including your windshield, driver and passenger side windows, and rear windshield. From the inside out, all surface grime will be safely eradicated from all glass areas.

Perfect paintwork is certainly a subjective concept. However, the short answer is ‘yes’ - I only install ceramic coatings on vehicles whose paintwork has been perfected by way of paint correction or X-Kote installation. This is backed by the reality of how intense your surface details become beneath a ceramic coating, showing off every single speck of dirt or scratch that has not been corrected.  

This is a great pairing! By first having any of the paint protection film packages here at Diamond Shine Detail & Ceramic Coatings applied to your high impact areas of your ride, you can then cover those films with a hydrophobic ceramic coating. This effort ultimately enhances both the protection and the shine of your ride.

When it pertains to ceramic coating packages here at Diamond Shine Detail & Ceramic Coatings of Abbotsford, British Columbia, cost is a good indicator of how protective your coating will be. Higher priced ceramic coating packages generally offer thicker layers of protection, meaning the ultraviolet resistance will be greater than an entry level counterpart.

This too is contingent on the amount of layers that the coating package provides your car, truck, or SUV. Generally, the shorter term ceramic coating packages are ones that cost less and only feature one layer of ceramic coating, while the more expensive and multi-layer packages can last upwards of 10 years!
