Professional Ceramic Coating Brisbane, Ipswich & Surrounds

Keep Your Car Looking New with Long-Lasting Paint Protection

Paint Protection: Preserve Your Car’s Shine with Advanced Ceramic Coatings

If you want your car to look newer for longer, a professionally applied ceramic coating is one of the smartest upgrades you can make. At Matt Bull Window Tinting, we use premium Always Dry ceramic coatings to give vehicles in the Brisbane, Ipswich and surrounding suburbs long-lasting protection, deep gloss, and effortless maintenance.

Your car’s paint deals with daily punishment: UV rays, bird droppings, dirt, tree sap, and harsh weather. Over time, these cause fading, dullness, and swirl marks. A ceramic coating creates a durable silica-based nano-glass layer that bonds to the paint, helps resist minor scratches, and locks in that showroom shine.

It also makes washing your car a breeze. Water beads, dirt slides off, and contaminants have a much harder time sticking to the paint. The result? A cleaner, glossier, easier-to-maintain car… every day of the year.

What Is a Ceramic Coating?

A ceramic coating is a silica-based nano-glass protective layer applied to your car’s paint. Once cured, it chemically bonds to the clear coat to create a hard, hydrophobic surface that:

  • protects against UV damage, fading and oxidation
  • reduces visible swirl marks and minor scratches
  • improves gloss and colour depth
  • repels water, dirt and road grime
  • keeps your car cleaner for longer
  • makes maintenance much easier

Professional installation ensures proper paint preparation and maximum durability… something dealership add-ons often skip.

Ceramic Protection for Your Car

Ceramic coatings protect your ride and preserve its beauty. Look at that deep glossy finish… and that reflection! Dirt and debris are easy to clean off and practically slide off with water. 

Always Dry 9H LDC Pro was used to protect this blue car.

Professional Ceramic Coating vs. Dealer “Ceramic” Add-On

Thinking about taking the dealer’s ceramic coating upsell?

Most new car buyers assume it’s the safest option… but it’s usually the most expensive and least effective. Dealership coatings are often rushed, low-quality, and applied with minimal preparation, which means you don’t get the protection you paid for.

Here’s how a professional ceramic coating compares:

Pro vs Dealer: What You Actually Get

1300 Get Tint
Professional Ceramic Coating

Dealer Add-On Coating

Coating Type

Silica-based nano-glass ceramic coating chemically bonded to the paint

Often a basic paint sealant or entry-level ceramic with minimal silica content.

Proper Paint Preparation

Full paint decontamination + machine polishing before coating for a flawless surface.

Applied quickly without proper prep; micro-scratches and contaminants remain underneath.

Finish & Gloss

Creates a deep, glossy, hydrophobic finish that visually enhances the paint.

No correction done first. Gloss is limited to whatever the factory clear coat already shows.

Scratch Resistance

Always Dry coatings form a hardened layer designed to reduce visible swirls and minor marks.

Little to no improvement in scratch resistance due to thin application and weak bonding.

Durability

Long-lasting performance when maintained — Always Dry claims up to 7 microns of coating for 9H-LDC Extreme.

Often lasts months to 1–2 years; often requires yearly dealer inspections to stay “validated.”

Bonding

True chemical bond to the paint for better longevity (manufacturer’s claim).

Many dealer products are sprayed/wiped on like wax and do not chemically bond.

Water Behaviour

Strong hydrophobic beading and self-cleaning properties, according to Always Dry specs.

Basic sealants lose water behaviour quickly as they degrade.

Warranty Transparency

Clear terms from a specialist who actually applies the product.

“Lifetime” warranties usually contain strict conditions, exclusions, and required annual servicing.

Value for Money

Premium results at a lower cost than most dealer add-ons.

Often $1,000–$3,000 added to finance, it may be unclear what’s actually included.

Who Applies It

Skilled professionals with experience in paint correction and coating systems.

Typically applied by dealership prep staff under time pressure.

The dealer option might sound convenient, but a professional ceramic coating gives you a deeper shine, longer protection, and a much higher standard of application. It’s simply the smarter choice for your car and your wallet.

Two Choices of Professional Ceramic Coatings

Shield your car from scratches and maintain that high gloss look. Both the products we use will give your car a lovely shine. The Pro resists light scratches. Your choice will be how heavy duty you need your protection. Ask us and we’ll help you make the right decision for you.

Unbeatable Gloss: Pro-Level Ceramic Coating Shine That Lasts

When you’re after an unbeatable glossy shine to your car, we recommend Always Dry’s 9H LDC Pro.

It offers advanced protection with a nano-ceramic barrier that shields against UV damage, chemical exposure, and minor scratches. With a brilliant shine, you’ll find that water and dirt slide off effortlessly. 

This coating provides your car with a beautiful waterproof finish, has an excellent beading effect which creates a self-cleaning effect. With Always Dry coatings, you use 80% less water to clean your car over its lifetime while maintaining an as-new appearance.

Extreme Protection: Buff Out Scratches, Keep the Shine

When you expect more out of your car because of what you put it through, we recommend Always Dry’s 9H LDC Extreme

This top line product provides even stronger protection, particularly for harsher environments, boasting superior durability, chemical resistance, and an ultra-thick coat that increases longevity. 

It is a dual composite ceramic nano glass coating applied by way of a permanent chemical bond. It is an anti-static, hydrophobic, ultra-hard coat of armour with self-healing properties, that shines and protects.

Ceramic Paint Protection FAQs

We often are asked the following questions about how to maintain that new car glossy shine. If you have any other questions, just contact us. We're always happy to help.

Yes. Ceramic coating protects new paint from UV damage, fading, oxidation and light scratches. It keeps the car looking newer for longer and preserves resale value.

We use premium Always Dry coatings, including 9H-LDC Extreme, known for gloss, hydrophobic performance, and durable protection.

Always Dry coatings can last years when maintained properly. They form a bonded layer that is far more durable than waxes or sealants.

It helps reduce the appearance of swirl marks and minor scratches thanks to the hardened nano-glass layer, but it won’t stop deep impacts or rock chips.

Yes. Dealership coatings are often basic sealants applied with minimal prep. Professional coatings involve paint decontamination, polishing, and expert application of a high-quality product.

Yes it does. It’s time sensitive and depends on when the product is applied, and the condition of your car.

If you’re protecting your new car, then you will get a LIFETIME WARRANTY, if your ceramic protection happens within 30 days of your car’s first registration.

Outside of that first 30 days, your new car will get a 5-year warranty.

Older cars will receive a 2-year warranty.

The 9H LDC Pro is a nano-ceramic barrier which shields against UV damage, chemical exposure, and minor scratches. Water and dirt slide off when you clean the car. You car will have a waterproof finish with an excellent beading effect.

9H LDC Extreme is an ultra thick layer of dual composite ceramic nano glass coating applied by way of a permanent chemical bond which provides even stronger protection than the Pro. It is designed to withstand harsher treatment or environments. It boasts superior durability, chemical resistance.  It is an anti-static, hydrophobic, ultra-hard coat of armour with self-healing properties, that shines and protects.

No, you do not. Both the Pro and Extreme products are applied once.

After your auto ceramic protection is applied, it’s important to not use any wash and wax products.

It’s recommended to use car washing products that are pH neutral and have no silicone.

Absolutely. Older paint can look dramatically better after correction and coating, often better than new.

Typically 1–2 days, depending on paint condition and whether paint correction is required. In damp weather, we may need to keep your car until the following day to ensure perfect curing of the coating.

Yes. We provide ceramic coating services for customers from Brisbane, Ipswich and all surrounding suburbs.

Many of our customers travel to us because they want a high-quality professional application, and our workshop is fully set up for proper preparation and coating.
