Default Ceramic Pro Price Estimates

Has anybody gotten ceramic pro done to their cars? What's the approximate cost?

I was quoted $1600 for a lifetime warranty.

Don't think so. It was Berardi's. Wonder if anybody has done it over there in the Philadelphia area.

Default Pricing will vary ....

I'm sure it will be different from state to state. NJ price for Opticoat Plus is 1300.00

How many coats for $1600? Unless the vehicle is brand new paint correction is essential

I have a 2014 I bought in July of 2016.

The place I went to in Houston Texas, Grand Designs Armor, had a price list on their website of $1200 for their lifetime warranty Gold Package.

With Paint Correction, adding calipers, convertible top, wheels, and possibly other things (don't remember everything) the total cost came to $3000 minus a 4% discount for paying cash.

Plus, they recommend an annual renewal coating for an additional $300.

I would be very surprised if you get away with the the initial quote unless the vehicle goes from the show room floor to the coating facility and then only if it was at the dealer for only a couple of days and was delivered by a covered carrier -

Even when brand new, paint correction is essential. Every new car that I have taken delivery on has had dealer installed swirls.

OP I would call Oakes as well to get a quote.

Berardi's and Oakes seem to have a big presence in the Philly and surrounding areas.

Thanks guys! Don't think it included anything (paint correction etc.) other than just ceramic pro. It does seem a little bit on the higher side, but they seem pretty reputable in the Philly area.

I'll try to get a couple other quotes.

I just paid $1200 for OptiCoat Pro. That included acid wash, paint correction, clay bar, polish, and one coat. I asked them about more coats and they said that it wouldn't help...

My car was done at Berardi's. Basic paint correction and sealant (Griots). Decided not to do Ceramic, but he quoted far less than the number you are giving, however I have some connections there which gave a discount and no warranty.
