Ceramic coatings are made of nanoceramic particles, which are ultra-fine particles that form a bond with your car’s paint. The ceramic nanoparticle is so small it basically has no flaws, giving cars a mirror finish with a radiant gloss that reaches 9H on the hardness scale, offering the ultimate durability in paint and vehicle surface protection.
Ceramic coatings are designed to defend the painted surface against contaminants and prevent them from bonding to the surface by making the surface very hydrophobic, which means it repels water and dirt. Additionally, they create a very hard shield to protect against minor scuffs and abrasions and are extremely durable in terms of protection.
-
The process of a ceramic coating detail can take 2 - 3 days. This can vary, depending on the condition of the vehicle.
-
A ceramic coating will protect any car’s paint from oxidization, UV Damage, fading, and wearing a dull look. This is important if you park your car outside in Guam. PROTECTING ANY CAR THAT IS OLDER OR NEW TO LAST LONGER!

We use SystemX Ceramic Coating line of products. Our premium Ceramic Coating services use SystemX Crystal, PRO, and Max.
SystemX causes a highly durable, glass-like coating to form that is responsible for greatly increased durability, chemical and mar resistance, UV stability, and hydrophobic properties. Ceramic coatings allow for an easier-to-maintain automotive finish that is more maintenance-friendly.
-
Not entirely. The 9h hardness of SystemX coating, will make your vehicle much more resistant to minor scratches and abrasions. This does not mean it’s completely scratch proof. The Ceramic Coating acts as a sacrificial layer, protecting your vehicle’s paint from those scratches, however. And removing a scratch from the coating is much easier than removing one from paint.
-
Yes, this will increase the longevity of the protective film and help prevent it from discoloring.
-
SystemX cannot be chemically stripped and require mechanical abrasions such as compounding or wet sanding.
-
SystemX ceramic coatings will never delaminate, crack, flake, peel or change color during the lifetime of the coating.
-
Yes, however waxes and sealants won’t have their typical levels of durability. A ceramic coating will try to shed the waxes and sealants instead of letting them bond. Never apply ceramic coating over the top of a previous wax or sealant, ensure that the ceramic coating is applied directly to the prepared substrate or clear coat.
-
Over time, like typical topcoat, contaminants and pollutants will find a way to bind to the ceramic coating and will begin to affect the hydrophobic effect that is a hallmark of a ceramic coating.
We recommend coming in for quarterly maintenance washes where we will do a detox wash and refresh on your vehicle to help remove the contaminants, apply a refresh spray to return the coating back to its original, hydrophobic state, and help extend the life of your coating.

Yes, SystemX PRO & Max come with a warranty
Element 119 warrants that with the proper application of System X™ Paint Protection by an Element 119 approved installer; your vehicle’s paint finish will remain protected against:
Oxidation
Loss of gloss
UV Damage
Acid rain
Paint chalking
If any treated paint is shown to be adversely affected from exposure to these conditions or through normal use, as evidenced by a visible loss of paint gloss and providing that all of the terms of this warranty have been met, then such conditions will be remedied free of charge by Element 119, regional distributor and / or its authorized installers, who reserve the right to attempt repairs through professional surface reconditioning / polishing before repainting the damaged area.
