How Long Does a Ceramic Coating Appointment Take?

Life is busy. it helps to know what to expect.

We're often asked how long it takes to apply a ceramic coating. The answer to this question depends on a few factors.


  1. How big is your vehicle? A full-size SUV will take significantly longer than a 2-door coupe. This also includes considerations such as modifications (extra details, jacked up height, etc) that may take a little longer to work around.
  2. Are we doing any paint correction? A ceramic coating appointment at Let's Roll, including just our preparatory steps and an enhancement polish, will take roughly 3-4 hours. However, if we add paint correction to that appointment, it could add anywhere from 2-6 additional hours. Again, this varies depending on severity of damage, vehicle size, and intended outcomes.
  3. Are you scheduled for any additional services? It's a fun day at the shop when a client chooses "the works" (like our All-In Package), and we are coating everything from body paint, to trim, to wheels, to glass, to interior surfaces. This does add some time to the appointment, most likely 1-3 additional hours.


An exciting update on appointment length: We now have the capability of sending your vehicle home with you same-day! Thanks to an innovative product which acts as a protective layer OVER your ceramic coating during cure time, you can safely take your vehicle home in as little as an hour after ceramic coating has been applied.


As a final note, we make it our goal to be flexible with drop-off and pick-up coordination. We know schedules get crazy, and we want working with us to be as stress-free as possible.
