Ceramic Coating & Paint Protection
Wax lasts weeks. This lasts as long as you keep the car.
We apply Williams Racing licensed ceramic coatings, made by Ultimotive, at your home or at the studio at Brighton City Airport. Three levels: 8H at £350 +VAT, 10H at £450 +VAT, and the UK’s first true self healing ceramic at £750 +VAT. Every one bonds to the paint, beads water off, and makes the car easier to clean for years.

The entry point
Williams Ceramic Coat 8H
14% solid content cured to 8H hardness, with strong SiO2 bonding and an 89% mirror shine. It carries a lifetime guarantee for as long as you own the car.
This is the one for the everyday driver. The paint is sealed against UV and grime, water beads off instead of drying on, and the Sunday wash takes half the time it used to.
The step up
Williams Ceramic Coat Plus 10H
Nearly double the solids at 26%, applied as a dual layer system and cured to 10H. The Si‑N backbone gives it a harder shell, more gloss and more chemical resistance.
The extra solid content means a thicker, harder coating that shrugs off road grime, acids and salt. Same lifetime guarantee as the 8H, with a deeper shine that keeps it longer.
The flagship
Williams Self Healing Ceramic
The UK’s first true self healing ceramic. Fine scratches heal themselves above 60°C, or slowly at room temperature, and the swirl marks a wash brush leaves simply do not stay.
32% solid content laid up to 8 microns thick, with Dura500 magnetic technology underneath the gloss. It is the thickest and hardest wearing coating we apply, and it comes with a five year warranty on the self healing itself.
Side by side
The three coatings compared
| Feature | 8H | 10H | Self Healing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Solid content | 14% | 26% | 32% |
| Hardness | 8H | 10H | Flexible + self healing |
| Self healing | No | No | Yes |
| Warranty | Lifetime | Lifetime | 5 years |
| Price | £350 +VAT | £450 +VAT | £750 +VAT |
All three cover more than paint. Fabric, alloys, glass, leather, rubber, vinyl and plastics can all be protected, and every package comes with an aftercare kit.
The honest bit
A coating keeps whatever is under it
Ceramic locks the finish in. Coat over swirl marks and you have a lifetime warranty on swirl marks. That is why every package needs the paint cleaned, decontaminated and polished first, and why preparation usually means proper paintwork correction.
Preparation is priced separately because every car needs a different amount of it. Stone chips and scratches are best repaired before the coating goes on too. Tell us what you drive and we’ll give you one quote covering the lot.

Machine polishing that removes swirl marks and scratches before the ceramic locks the finish in. Most coatings start here.
Scuffed and kerbed alloys refurbished before the wheels are sealed, so the whole car matches the paint.
Door dings and small dents massaged out without paint, best done before the coating goes on.
Regular maintenance washes that keep the coating performing and the warranty meaningful, on a plan that suits you.
