A full decontamination wash and paint enhancement prep the clear coat so the coating bonds evenly and lasts.

Tier 1 — Paint Enhancement + 5-Year Ceramic
Paint enhancement and a 5-year ceramic coating that locks in gloss.
Why it matters
Protection that lasts for years, not months.
A ceramic coating bonds to your clear coat to create a durable, hydrophobic surface that repels water, dirt and UV. Tier 1 pairs paint enhancement prep with a 5-year coating — real, lasting protection applied on-site.
The process
How it's done.
02
Paint enhancement
Light machine enhancement revives gloss and clarity, giving the coating a flawless surface to bond to.
03
Coating application
The 5-year ceramic is applied panel-by-panel and levelled, then left to cure for lasting hydrophobic protection.
The SB difference
More than a wash.
A cleaner finish,
with protection.
Every ceramic coating from DetailedbySB ends with a surface that doesn't just look better — it stays better. Pro-grade products, careful technique, and a finish you can feel.

Customer reviews
Trusted by Bay Area drivers.
Booked online, SB showed up with his own water and power, and my Model 3 looked better than the day I drove it off the showroom floor. Effortless process.

DetailedbySB is a top-tier business that has my highest recommendation! My Audi Q7 looks brand new even though it's seven years old. SB is a true perfectionist.

If I could give more stars I would! Reached out to ask if he could remove light paint scratches while I was working from home. Honest, prompt, and flawless finish.
