PPF and ceramic coating over a year ago and it still looks like the first day.
Excellent full detail, 2-stage polish, and ceramic coating. Fair prices, great work.
I went to the Etobicoke location for a ceramic coating on my new car. Milad and his coworker did an amazing job on the car, which improved on even the original way it looked. The work was very thorough and professional. They provide great customer service and, after my research, I feel that they are among the best, if not the best, in the GTA. I don't live that close to this location, but they are definitely worth the drive.
Just had my truck ceramic coating done and could not ask for a better job. The staff is amazing. They even worked with my schedule and allowed me to drop it off on Sunday, and started right on it. Thanks again. I will definitely continue to go back.
Great service at a fair price with good recommendations! Called on Sunday and was able to get ceramic coating done on the same day. Looks great.
Extremely friendly, responsible and flexible, and did a fantastic job applying ceramic coating to my car. Definitely will be my go-to shop!
Why Choose MNV for Ceramic Coating?
Toronto vehicle owners choose MNV Auto Detailing for certified installation options, condition-based paint preparation, clear starting prices and straightforward warranty guidance.
Certified Installation Options
MNV is certified to install professional coating systems from GYEON, IGL Coatings and Ceramic Pro, with product selection based on the package and vehicle.
Preparation Based on Paint Condition
Each vehicle is washed, decontaminated and inspected. Paint correction is completed only when selected, required and safe for the available paint thickness.
Clear Starting Prices
Ceramic coating options start at $399 CAD. Final pricing depends on vehicle size, paint condition, preparation and the selected protection package.
Documented Warranty Requirements
The GYEON Q² INFINITE lifetime-warranty option starts at $1,200 CAD. It requires registration and maintenance every 24 months or 24,000 km by a GYEON Certified Detailer, subject to the written warranty terms.
Which package is appropriate? The answer depends on paint condition, expected ownership period, desired coverage and maintenance preferences. We inspect the vehicle before confirming the recommendation and final price.
What Does Ceramic Coating Do for Vehicle Paint?
Ceramic coating bonds to properly prepared clear coat to create a durable, hydrophobic surface. It can improve appearance and make routine care easier, but its performance still depends on preparation, installation and maintenance.
Enhanced Gloss and Clarity
A properly installed coating can deepen gloss and improve colour clarity after the paint has been cleaned, decontaminated and corrected when required.
Easier Routine Cleaning
The slick, hydrophobic surface helps water, loose dirt and road film release more easily during safe hand washing and drying.
Contamination Resistance
Ceramic coating adds a sacrificial barrier between the clear coat and common contaminants such as road grime, bird droppings, tree sap and winter salt.
Support Against Oxidation
By adding a maintained protective surface, ceramic coating can help reduce environmental exposure that contributes to oxidation and premature fading.
Less Dependence on Wax
A ceramic-coated vehicle does not require traditional waxing for temporary protection, although regular washing and periodic care are still necessary.
Longer-Term Protection
Professional coating packages are designed to last longer than conventional waxes or sealants when the vehicle is washed safely and maintained as directed.
Bottom line: ceramic coating is best for gloss, easier maintenance and resistance to environmental contamination. The right package depends on paint condition, desired durability and maintenance expectations.
Compare PackagesProfessional Ceramic Coating vs. DIY Products
The main difference is not simply the bottle. Professional service includes paint inspection, surface preparation, controlled application and package-specific aftercare. DIY products can improve gloss and water behaviour, but they do not correct existing paint defects.
| Consideration | Professional Ceramic Coating | DIY Ceramic Products |
|---|---|---|
| Paint assessment | Paint condition and thickness are inspected before the preparation plan is confirmed. | Usually relies on the vehicle owner's visual assessment. |
| Surface preparation | Includes thorough washing, chemical and mechanical decontamination, and clay-bar treatment. | Preparation varies and may be limited to routine washing. |
| Paint defects | Paint correction can be completed when selected, required and safe for the available paint thickness. | Swirls, oxidation and scratches remain visible unless corrected separately. |
| Application | Applied indoors by trained installers with controlled lighting, levelling and curing checks. | Designed for easier consumer application, with results depending on preparation and technique. |
| Durability | Package-specific protection intended for multi-year performance when properly maintained. | Durability varies widely by product and is commonly shorter than professional coating packages. |
| Warranty options | Eligible packages may include documented registration, inspection and scheduled maintenance requirements. | Usually limited to the product manufacturer's consumer guarantee, if offered. |
| Best suited for | Drivers seeking professional preparation, longer-term protection and defined package support. | Drivers seeking temporary gloss, water beading or a lower-cost maintenance product. |
Which option should you choose?
Choose a DIY product for temporary appearance enhancement and routine upkeep. Choose professional ceramic coating when paint preparation, longer-term durability, trained application or a registered warranty option matters to you.
How Is Professional Ceramic Coating Applied?
Professional ceramic coating requires more than applying a product to the paint. The result depends on inspection, decontamination, appropriate correction, careful installation and controlled curing.
-
Inspect and Assess
We assess vehicle size, paint condition, visible defects and available paint thickness before confirming preparation needs, package suitability and final price.
-
Wash and Decontaminate
A careful wash is followed by chemical and mechanical decontamination and clay-bar treatment to remove bonded material that can interfere with coating adhesion.
-
Correct the Paint When Included
Correctable swirl marks, oxidation and scratches are reduced or removed when paint correction is included and can be performed safely. Deep defects may remain.
-
Prepare and Apply
Polishing residue is removed before the selected coating system is applied evenly to the surfaces and in the number of layers specified by the chosen package.
-
Cure, Inspect and Explain Aftercare
The coating is allowed to cure in a controlled environment, checked for consistent coverage and handed over with product-specific washing and maintenance instructions.
Does every package include paint correction?
No. Paint correction is included only when listed in the selected package or added after the paint assessment.
How long does installation and curing take?
Timing depends on vehicle size, paint condition, correction requirements, coating system and number of layers. Exact curing and first-wash instructions are provided for the product installed.
Before booking: choose a package based on paint condition, desired durability, included surfaces and maintenance requirements—not durability alone.
Request a Paint AssessmentCeramic Coating Maintenance, Wax Comparison and Value
Ceramic coating can provide longer-lasting gloss, hydrophobic behaviour and contamination resistance than traditional wax. It is not maintenance-free, and its value depends on the vehicle, ownership plans and willingness to wash it safely.
What is ceramic coating?
It is a liquid protective product applied to properly prepared surfaces. After curing, it creates a durable, hydrophobic layer that makes contamination easier to remove and reduces dependence on traditional wax.
Is ceramic coating worth it in Toronto?
It can be worthwhile for drivers who want easier cleaning and longer-term paint care through winter salt, road grime, summer insects and environmental fallout. Value depends on how long the vehicle will be kept and maintained.
Ceramic coating or paint protection film?
Choose ceramic coating for gloss, chemical resistance and easier maintenance. Choose paint protection film for physical impact areas exposed to stone chips and road debris. Some vehicles benefit from using both.
Ceramic Coating vs. Traditional Wax
| Feature | Ceramic Coating | Traditional Wax |
|---|---|---|
| Durability | Longer-term, package-specific protection when properly maintained | Shorter-term protection requiring more frequent reapplication |
| Bonding | Bonds to properly prepared surfaces as it cures | Sits temporarily on the surface |
| Water behaviour | Strong hydrophobic behaviour that can last with proper care | Water beading that normally weakens sooner |
| Contamination | Greater resistance to road film and environmental contamination | More easily weakened by detergents, weather and contamination |
| Ongoing care | Safe washing, periodic decontamination and package-specific maintenance | Safe washing plus frequent waxing or sealing |
Choosing a package: compare preparation, included surfaces, durability, warranty conditions and maintenance—not only the advertised lifespan.

Ceramic Coating Maintenance at a Glance
Consistent, gentle maintenance helps preserve gloss, slickness and water behaviour while reducing avoidable wash damage.
Wash Regularly
Wash every one to two weeks when practical. Work on cool panels and use a pH-neutral automotive shampoo suitable for coated vehicles.
Use Clean Wash Media
Use a clean microfiber wash mitt and separate dirty rinse water. Never scrub the paint with a brush, sponge or contaminated towel.
Dry the Vehicle Safely
Dry promptly with a soft microfiber towel or filtered air. Allowing hard water to evaporate can leave mineral deposits and water spots.
Avoid Harmful Shortcuts
Avoid dish soap, automatic brush washes, harsh chemicals and abrasive polishing. Remove bird droppings, insects and tree sap promptly.
Important: Follow your installer's curing instructions before the first wash. Reduced water beading may indicate surface contamination rather than coating failure, so arrange an inspection before assuming the coating is gone.
Request a Coating InspectionWho Is Ceramic Coating Best For?
Ceramic coating is best suited to owners who value gloss, contamination resistance and easier washing—and who are willing to follow safe maintenance practices. Vehicle type matters less than paint condition, preparation and ownership goals.
New or Professionally Corrected Vehicles
New paint can benefit from early protection, but it should still be inspected for transport contamination or defects. Corrected paint benefits from a coating that helps preserve the refined finish and makes ongoing cleaning easier.
Daily Drivers, SUVs and Trucks
Frequently used vehicles encounter road film, salt, insects and regular washing. A hydrophobic coated surface can release contamination more easily, although it does not prevent stone chips or impact damage.
Luxury, Sports and Electric Vehicles
Ceramic coating can enhance gloss and support long-term finish care on premium vehicles. The same preparation standards apply to electric and combustion vehicles; recommendations are based on paint and intended use.
Owners Keeping Their Vehicle Longer
Multi-year coating packages are most valuable when the vehicle will be retained, washed safely and maintained as directed. Owners seeking only short-term shine may find wax or a sealant more appropriate.
Still unsure? An appropriate recommendation considers current paint condition, vehicle use, ownership period, desired coverage, budget and maintenance expectations.
Ceramic Coating FAQs
Straightforward answers about ceramic coating prices, paint correction, protection, installation, maintenance and the GYEON Q² INFINITE warranty.
How much does ceramic coating cost?
MNV Auto Detailing's ceramic coating options currently start at $399 CAD for the 2-year package. The 3-year package starts at $699, the 5-year package at $799, and the GYEON Q² INFINITE lifetime-warranty option at $1,200. Final pricing depends on vehicle size, paint condition, required preparation or correction, and areas being coated.
Does every ceramic coating package include paint correction?
No. The 2-year package does not include paint correction. The 3-year and 5-year packages include a two-stage correction. Preparation for the GYEON Q² INFINITE option is tailored to the paint's condition and measured thickness. Deep defects may remain when complete removal would be unsafe.
What does ceramic coating help protect against?
A professionally installed coating adds a durable, hydrophobic layer that helps the surface resist road grime, salt, bird droppings, tree sap, environmental fallout and exposure that contributes to oxidation and fading. It also makes routine cleaning easier, but it does not make a vehicle maintenance-free.
Will ceramic coating prevent scratches and stone chips?
No. Ceramic coating is not an impact-protection film and cannot prevent stone chips, dents or deep scratches. Improper washing can still create fine swirls. For protection against physical road impacts, consider paint protection film (PPF) on vulnerable panels.
How long does ceramic coating last?
MNV offers coating options identified as 2-year, 3-year and 5-year packages, plus a GYEON Q² INFINITE lifetime-warranty option. Real-world performance depends on preparation, application, driving, storage, washing and ongoing care. A lifetime warranty is coverage subject to its written terms; it does not mean the vehicle never needs washing or maintenance.
How should a ceramic-coated vehicle be maintained?
Follow the supplied curing and first-wash instructions, use a pH-neutral car shampoo, clean wash media and a safe drying method. Avoid automatic brush washes, remove contamination promptly, and schedule inspections or decontamination when needed to maintain gloss and water behaviour.
What is required for the GYEON Q² INFINITE lifetime warranty?
The system uses GYEON Q² INFINITE Base Type 2 followed by INFINITE TopCoat Type 1. Warranty eligibility requires official registration and maintenance every 24 months or 24,000 km, whichever comes first, completed by a GYEON Certified Detailer. Coverage is always subject to the current written warranty terms and routine care is still required. Visit the official GYEON warranty portal
How long do installation and curing take?
Timing varies with vehicle size, paint condition, correction requirements, coating system and number of layers. After inspecting the vehicle, MNV can provide a realistic completion estimate. Product-specific curing and no-wash instructions are provided when the vehicle is collected.
