Why Tesla Ceramic Coating Matters

Here’s what matters. A Tesla ceramic coating in Meridian and Boise, ID gives you:

  • High gloss that makes color look deeper and reflections sharper
  • Hydrophobic behavior so water beads and sheets off easily
  • UV resistance to help preserve paint and trim appearance
  • Easier wash days with less towel drag and quicker rinses
  • All season support for hot summers and slushy winter commutes

Bottom line, coating saves time and keeps your EV looking dialed in.

What Ceramic Coating Actually Does

Let’s break it down. A coating bonds to the clear coat as a thin, durable layer. It does not replace PPF and it is not paint. It changes surface behavior so maintenance is simple.

  • Hydrophobic surface: Water and grime have a harder time sticking
  • Slick feel: Towels glide, reducing the chance of wash-induced marks
  • Gloss boost: Paint looks richer under sun and street lights
  • Chemical resistance: Bugs and road film remove easier when cleaned promptly

Now here’s the thing. Coating still needs proper washing and good towels. We will show you how.

Our Tesla-Specific Coating Process

Clean, consistent results come from process, not shortcuts.

  1. Check-in and goals
    We confirm coverage for paint, wheels, and glass and discuss your driving and parking routine.
  2. Safe wash and decontamination
    Pre-foam, two-bucket wash, and paint-safe decon clear the surface. Wheels and barrels get dedicated tools.
  3. Paint inspection and test spot
    Under color-matched lights we evaluate swirls and haze. If needed, we demonstrate a small area of Paint Correction.
  4. Masking and panel prep
    Trim is taped and panels are wiped to remove oils for reliable bonding.
  5. Coating application
    We apply and level the coating panel by panel, checking edges, jambs, and tight zones.
  6. Glass, wheels, and trim add-ons
    Optional hydrophobic layers for panoramic glass, side glass, and wheel faces.
  7. Final inspection and handoff
    We review results, share aftercare steps, and outline your first-wash window.

Model Tips: 3, Y, S, and X

Model 3
Compact panels respond well to a light refinement. Add side glass and wheel faces for maximum maintenance savings.

Model Y
Hatch and rear bumper collect road film quickly. Pair coating with targeted Tesla PPF on front impact zones.

Model S
Long panels can show swirls. A refining pass before coating deepens gloss, especially on darker colors.

Model X
Large glass and unique doors need precise edge work. Glass coating improves visibility in rain and winter.

Paint Prep: When to Add Correction

The real question is whether to polish first. Choose paint correction when:

  • Sunlight shows spider-webbing or haze
  • Delivery or dealer washes left marring or holograms
  • You want the deepest possible gloss before sealing the finish

We start with a small test spot so you see the value before deciding. Learn more on Paint Correction.
