Have Ceramic Coating Installed

Now that you are the proud owner of the world’s first mid-engined Corvette, it’s important to protect your investment. Paint protection has been getting more popular over the last few years as the technology has advanced to ceramic coatings, which is essentially an invisible armor for your paint.

You can have a ceramic coating applied to your C8 by finding a recommended automotive detailer in your area. Professional detailers will perform a paint correction prior to applying ceramic coatings to ensure the paint is flawless. Once the paint correction is complete, your C8 is now ready for the ceramic coating which can provide up to 5 years of paint protection.
