    I have a 2015 ACLB which has been garaged all of it's life, now living out in the sun right near the coast.

    I'm thinking of having it detailed and then ceramic coated to keep the paint alive. Any ideas as to cost in the south Orange county area?

    Thanks...

    I'm interested in this as well. Even better if they're mobile.

    Visual Detail in Escondido, if you are down this way. More directed towards PPF there but they are solid.

    What does quality work like this cost? I'm interested in perhaps getting some service done as well.

    one of the best shops in the general SD area is adonis detail. he does great work.

    dont go to LA, not necessary and itll just be 1000+ higher than what you pay in SD, heh.

    Since you’re asking about having it done, it may not be the solution you want to hear, but for the same thousand to $1500 minimum you’re gonna pay to have someone do paint correction and ceramic coating, you can learn how to do this and buy all the materials and equipment for less than half that cost.

    It’s not that complicated, it just takes a little time and patience. Once you own the stuff you own it, and maintaining it is easy.
