Why a coating, not a wax
It's a protection job, not a wash
A coating is only as good as the paint under it. Every job runs in the same order.
1
Prep
Safe wash, then we pull out iron fallout, tar, overspray and sap. Anything left in the clear coat just gets sealed in.
2
Correction
Machine polishing to cut back swirls and dullness. This is where the gloss comes from — it's in every coating package.
3
Protection
Ceramic or graphene, panel by panel, levelled off and cured. Water beads off and washing takes half the time.
Every coating includes the prep and the correction
Plenty of places quote a coating as a bottle and an hour. We don't. The correction work is the expensive part of what we do, and it's already in the price you see — because a coating over swirled paint just gives you shiny swirls.
The bit most places skip Where the gloss comes from
Swirls, wash marks and bad-polish holograms, machined out. On its own or under a coating.
Single-stage and two-stage
Single-stage is one machine pass — enough for lighter swirls and a car that's been looked after. Two-stage is a cut and then a refine, for deeper marks, older paint, or anything that's had a rough life.

Correction is priced after we've seen the paint — we'll tell you honestly what's worth doing and what isn't.

“I just picked up my car from these guys. What a fantastic job. My 10 year old car looks brand new! It sparkles. I highly recommend them. We had the paint restoration and ceramic coating completed. Outstanding service, communication and finish quality.”

“Well I can't say enough about the superior finish they gave to my new car, it looks amazing and the car almost cleans it's self. I would highly recommend infinity customs to all of my friends and anybody who is looking for ceramic detailing.”
“Recently had my 2020 honda hrv ceramic coated by them. I am very happy with the results. My car looks brand new with paint protection now. I recommend dont buy a new car yet, let them have it paint corrected and protected, the results will make you refrain from buying a new car.”

Coatings and paint correction happen at the workshop, where we've got the light and a clean space to do them properly. Detailing and interiors we'll happily bring to your place.
How much does a ceramic coating cost in Wellington?
Our ceramic coating starts from $899, the premium ceramic from $1,099 and the graphene from $1,499. Every one of those includes the paint preparation and correction work — that's the part that actually decides how the coating looks. The final price depends on how big the car is, what condition the paint is in, and how much correction it needs, so we confirm the number after we've had a proper look at it.
What's the difference between ceramic and graphene?
Both are liquid coatings that cure into a hard, slick layer over your paint. Graphene holds up longer and handles heat and water spotting better — the manufacturer rates it for up to five years when it is professionally applied and maintained. If you're keeping the car a long time, graphene is the one. If you want serious gloss and protection at a lower spend, ceramic does the job.
Do I have to drop the car off?
Yes — every job is done at our Taita workshop. Working indoors is what makes the difference: controlled lighting to find every swirl, and a clean, still space for a coating to cure in. Drop the car in between 9:00am and 10:00am and we'll take it from there. We look after customers from right across Lower Hutt, Upper Hutt, Wellington and Porirua.
How long does a coating take?
Every coating is a full day's work — ceramic, premium ceramic or graphene, it makes no difference to the time. Most of it is prep and correction, not the coating itself. The car then stays overnight to cure, and you collect it the next day at a time we'll arrange with you. A coating takes the workshop for the whole day, so nothing else goes through alongside it.
Is it worth coating an older car?
Often it's the best money you can spend on one. We correct the paint first, so an older car usually comes out looking better than it has in years — and then the coating keeps it that way. A lot of our best results have been on cars over ten years old.
