Professional SiO₂ nano-ceramic coatings bonded permanently to your paint — delivering hydrophobic protection, UV resistance, self-cleaning capability, and mirror-like depth for years. Both packages include a full 2-step paint correction at our Glendale Heights studio, serving Carol Stream, Bloomingdale, Wheaton, and the Chicago suburbs.
Water, rain, mud, and road grime bead up and roll off the surface. Self-cleaning effect dramatically reduces how often your car needs washing.
UV rays are the leading cause of clear coat breakdown and color fading. The ceramic layer blocks UV penetration, keeping paint vibrant and clear for years.
Road salt, bird droppings, tree sap, and industrial fallout bond less aggressively to ceramic-coated surfaces — and wipe off before they etch the clear coat.
The nano-ceramic layer fills microscopic surface imperfections and dramatically enhances gloss, color depth, and reflectivity beyond what wax or sealant can achieve.
Every ceramic coating package at Hersheys Detailing includes a full 2-step paint correction. The coating goes on a defect-free surface — always.
Professional-grade ceramic coatings outlast consumer products by years. Maintained properly, your coating will perform and protect for the full duration of its warranty.
Our ceramic coating studio is at 2017 Bloomingdale Rd in Glendale Heights, IL. Clients drive to us from across DuPage and Cook County. Chicago-area winters — road salt, freeze-thaw cycles, and UV exposure — make ceramic coating one of the best investments you can make for your vehicle.
At Hersheys Detailing, our 5-year ceramic coating package starts at $999 for a sedan and our 8-year package starts at $1,099. Both include a full 2-step paint correction — which some shops charge separately. SUV and truck pricing is higher. No payment is collected at the time of booking.
A complete ceramic coating service — including the 2-step paint correction, decontamination, and coating application — typically takes 1–2 full days depending on the vehicle's size and paint condition. We'll give you a specific timeline when we confirm your booking.
Our 5-year coating lasts up to 5 years and our 8-year coating lasts up to 8 years with proper maintenance. This means annual maintenance details and safe washing practices (no automatic car washes). The coating does not peel or wear off like wax — it chemically bonds to your paint.
Absolutely. Road salt, freeze-thaw cycles, and UV exposure in the Chicago suburbs accelerate paint oxidation and clear coat failure faster than most climates. A ceramic coating creates a chemical barrier against salt, UV, bird droppings, and industrial fallout. It also makes winter washing far easier — contamination rinses off instead of bonding to the paint.
Yes — always. Ceramic coating amplifies everything underneath it. Swirl marks, water spots, and haze will be locked in and magnified by the coating's gloss. That's why every ceramic package at Hersheys Detailing includes a full 2-step paint correction. You get a flawless surface, then we seal it in.
