Machine polishing & Ceramic Coatings
Professional paint correction and long-term ceramic protection, tailored to your vehicle through consultation-led detailing.
Every vehicle’s paintwork is different. While the packages below provide a clear guide, a consultation is required to assess your vehicle’s condition and recommend the most suitable level of correction.
This ensures the best possible results, protects your paintwork, and means you only pay for what your vehicle genuinely needs.
Machine polishing removes defects such as swirl marks, light scratches, and oxidation. When paired with a ceramic coating, the result is a deep gloss finish with long-lasting protection.

Ceramic coating - Consultation led protection
Ceramic coatings form a durable, hydrophobic layer that bonds to your vehicle’s paintwork, protecting it from environmental contaminants while enhancing gloss and ease of maintenance.
​
Because every vehicle and owner’s expectations are different, all ceramic coating services at Valerius Detailing are consultation led.
Why is this necessary?
Ceramic coatings are not a one-size-fits-all product.
There are multiple professional-grade coating brands available, each offering different levels of durability, gloss, chemical resistance, and maintenance requirements.
​
Because of this, there are no fixed prices for ceramic coatings.
The final cost depends on:
​
-
The coating brand selected.
-
The level of durability required.
-
The condition of the vehicle’s paintwork.
-
The preparation and correction needed before application
Proper preparation and correct aftercare are essential for ceramic coatings to perform as intended.
Incorrect washing techniques, harsh chemicals, or lack of maintenance can significantly reduce the lifespan and effectiveness of a coating — regardless of brand or claimed durability.
