Ceramic Coating Experts in Mississauga

Long-lasting protection, gloss, and simplicity for Canadian drivers

A Smarter Way to Keep Your Vehicle Protected

Looking for a way to keep your car looking glossy and make it easier to clean? A ceramic coating could be exactly what your vehicle needs. It adds a slick, protective layer over your paint that resists water, dirt, dust, and more—making regular maintenance fast and easy.

With the ever-changing weather in Mississauga—cold winters, road salt, rain, sun exposure, and everything in between—your car goes through a lot. A ceramic coating shields your vehicle against all of it. From UV rays to bird droppings and tree sap, this coating helps keep your paint in better shape for much longer.

Once the coating is applied, washing becomes a whole lot easier. Dirt and grime won’t bond to the paint the same way, so all it usually takes is a simple hand wash and rinse to get that shine back. No constant waxing, no scrubbing for hours—just less effort for better results.

Unlike waxes or sealants that fade in a matter of weeks and months, ceramic coatings deliver protection that lasts years. More and more drivers across the GTA are making the switch because of the durability, shine, and low-maintenance benefits. And to get the absolute best results, we start with a paint correction process to eliminate swirls, oxidation, and minor scratches before applying the coating.

Why Ceramic Coating Is Worth It

Built for Harsh Canadian Conditions
Mississauga weather brings everything from snow to salt to summer sun. A ceramic coating forms a strong, long-lasting shield over your paint that holds up through all four seasons

Repels Dirt, Water, and Contaminants
The hydrophobic surface repels water and prevents grime from clinging to your paint. Rain beads and rolls off, often carrying dust and light debris with it. That means fewer swirl marks and much easier cleaning.

Enhances Gloss and Depth
One of the most noticeable benefits is the deep, reflective finish. A properly coated vehicle looks glossier, richer in colour, and has a clarity that really pops in direct sunlight.

Coating Goes Beyond Paint
At Bustami’s Customs, we can apply ceramic to more than just your painted panels. We also coat wheels, plastic trim, glass, headlights, and even interior materials like leather and fabric. If it needs protection, we can likely coat it.

Ceramic coating is a long-term investment in your vehicle’s appearance. Whether you’re protecting a brand-new car or preserving a vehicle you’ve had for years, this coating helps keep it looking sharp.

Our 4-Step Ceramic Coating Process

Ceramic coating isn’t a quick or random spray-on treatment—it’s a precise and time-intensive process that delivers lasting results. Here’s how we handle each job:

Step 1: Exterior Wash and Decontamination
We start with a full cleaning of your wheels and tires, followed by a detailed hand wash of the entire exterior. This removes loose dirt, old wax, and road grime. Then we use iron removers and a clay bar to pull out embedded contaminants from the paint. The goal is a perfectly smooth, clean surface to help the coating bond properly.

Step 2: Paint Correction (When Needed)
If your paint has swirls, water spots, or scratches, we take care of that before applying any coating. Using machine polishers and high-quality compounds, we correct the defects and restore a clean, glossy surface. Depending on the condition of your paint, this step might take a couple of hours—or up to two days for more extensive work.

Step 3: Coating Application
Once the paint is corrected, we wipe it down with isopropyl alcohol to remove residue. Then we apply the ceramic coating one section at a time. It’s a hands-on, controlled process. As the coating flashes, we level it evenly to ensure no high spots or streaks.

Step 4: Curing and Final Inspection
After application, the coating needs 24 to 48 hours to cure. Once it bonds with the surface, it becomes your vehicle’s first line of defense against the elements. We perform a full final inspection to make sure everything looks flawless before handing it back.

Ceramic Coating: Facts vs. Myths

As great as ceramic coatings are, they’re not a magic solution to infinite protection and gloss, especially if not taken care of properly. Here’s a few myths we hear about using a ceramic coating: 

Myth: Ceramic Coating Makes Paint Scratch-Proof
The coating does provide minor resistance against very light swirls and marring, but it’s not bulletproof. Deep scratches and rock chips will still happen without protection like paint protection film.

Myth: You’ll Never Need to Wash Your Car Again
Ceramic coating makes your car easier to wash, but it doesn’t replace regular maintenance. You’ll still want to hand wash it every so often—but now the process is faster and much more effective.

Myth: Coatings Hide Scratches
Ceramic coating won’t fill or hide deep damage. That’s why we always recommend correcting the paint first, so the coating enhances a flawless finish instead of locking in imperfections.

Ceramic Coating FAQs

  • Most ceramic coatings last anywhere from two to five years depending on the product used and how well you maintain it. If it’s parked away from the outside elements, it’ll naturally last longer than a vehicle that is always getting beaten up by the sun, cold, and rain. 

  • No, the coating enhances the condition of your paint but doesn’t fix paint damage like swirls or deep scratches. That’s why we start with correction before applying the coating.

  • In terms of longevity, protection, and ease of cleaning—absolutely. Wax wears off quickly, while ceramic coating stays locked in for years. That being said, there’s a purpose for each type of protection. In some cases, a coating is better suited for your situation and other times, a wax or sealant is the better choice. 

  • Nope! As long as we have access to the vehicle and space to work, we can take care of everything while you’re busy.
