What affects ceramic coating pricing in Houston

Vehicle Size

Sedans are typically the base price. SUVs and trucks cost 20–40% more due to larger surface area requiring more product and labor time.

Paint Condition

Paint correction (removing swirl marks, scratches, oxidation) is usually required before coating. Single-stage correction adds $200–$500, multi-stage adds $500–$800+.

Coating Brand & Layers

Professional coatings (Ceramic Pro, Gtechniq Crystal Serum) cost more than consumer-grade products. Multiple layers increase durability and cost.

Coverage Area

Full exterior coating costs the most. Some owners opt for high-impact areas only (hood, bumper, fenders) at 40–60% of full price. Interior surfaces and wheels can be coated separately.
