Ceramic Coating
A ceramic coating gives your car a deep, lasting shine and a tough layer of protection that ordinary wax cannot match. At Doyen Voss we apply Titan ceramic coatings at our Plympton studio, serving Plymouth and the South Hams.
Experience ultimate protection and a stunning shine with our ceramic coating service. Our advanced ceramic coatings provide a durable layer of protection against scratches, UV rays and contaminants, keeping your car looking new for longer. Say goodbye to frequent waxing and hello to long-lasting brilliance with our ceramic coating solutions.
What a ceramic coating does
A ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that bonds chemically to your paint and cures into a hard, glossy layer. It is hydrophobic, so water and dirt struggle to cling on, the car stays cleaner for longer and washing becomes quicker and gentler. It also protects against UV, bird lime and the light chemical staining that dulls paint over time.
The coating only looks as good as the paint underneath, so we prepare and, where needed, correct the paintwork first, then seal that finish in. That is the difference between a coating applied over tired paint and one that locks in a flawless shine.
Information about dealership coating
If you were offered a ceramic coating when you bought your car, it is worth knowing it is rarely the same thing. Dealership coatings are usually applied quickly at handover, over paint that has not been properly prepared or corrected, which means any swirls and marks are simply sealed underneath.
They are often not a true professional ceramic coating, they do not tend to last, and there is usually no proper aftercare once you drive away, yet they are frequently expensive for what they are. A professional coating is a different thing entirely: the paint is decontaminated and corrected first, a genuine Titan coating is applied by hand, and you are supported afterwards. If you are weighing up a dealer add-on, it is worth talking to us first.
Our ceramic coating packages
Three set packages, so you can choose the level of protection and finish that suits your car. Every package begins with a full decontamination and the paint prepared before coating.
Single Layer Coating
Titan PX10 + Ultra V5
All prices are excluding VAT
- Full decontamination & prep
- Single layer of Titan PX10

Single Layer Coating
Our entry-level ceramic package. After a full decontamination and surface preparation, we apply a single layer of Titan PX10, sealed with an Ultra V5 water-based top coat, giving your paintwork a glossy, hydrophobic, easy-clean finish and lasting protection well beyond what wax can offer.
From £350 plus VAT.
Dual Layer Coating
Our most popular choice. We apply two layers for a harder, deeper finish, a Titan PX10 base topped with an Apollo ceramic top coat. The result is noticeably greater depth and gloss and stronger, longer-lasting protection than a single layer.

Complete Coating
Our most thorough package, protecting far more than the paint. It combines our dual layer coating on the bodywork with the wheels removed and coated inside and out, including calipers and hubs, the glass machine polished and coated, and the exterior plastics coated too, so every surface sheds water and stays easier to clean. The complete, cohesive finish for a car you really care about.
From £1,020 plus VAT.

Ceramic coating FAQs
A professional Titan ceramic coating lasts from four years up to ten years, depending on the package and how the car is maintained.
If you want lasting gloss, easier cleaning and protection from UV and contaminants, yes. It costs more than wax but lasts far longer and keeps your car looking its best for years.
It depends on the package and your vehicle. We offer three options, from a four year coating up to a ten year coating, and give a free quote after seeing the car.
It adds hardness and resists light swirl marks, but it is not scratch proof. For protection against stone chips, paint protection film is the better choice, and the two work well together.
Yes, and a new car is an ideal candidate. We prepare and lightly correct the factory paint first, then coat it so it stays protected from day one.
Yes. A coating locks in whatever is underneath, so we remove swirls and defects first, which is why the finish looks so good once it is sealed.
Use a pH neutral shampoo and the two bucket method. The hydrophobic surface releases dirt easily, so washing is quicker and gentler than on uncoated paint.
Yes. Depending on the package, we coat the wheel faces or remove the wheels and coat them inside and out, and our top package coats the glass and exterior plastics too.
