"The service provided far exceeded my expectations from the beginning to end. I took my Kia Telluride to Matt for a ceramic coating and was extremely happy with the results. What I was most impressed with is the professionalism. Matt took the time to explain the details of the ceramic process and differences in the packages. He is very honest in his assessment of the vehicles paint condition and did not try to up sale me on the packages. He kept me updated on each phase of the process with pictures along the way. Once I picked up my vehicle he did a good job of explaining and demonstrating how to care for a ceramic coated vehicle. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting their car/truck ceramic coated or detailed."

"I had Matthew come down to Austin from Harker Heights (1 hour drive) to do a paint correction and ceramic coating on my 2008 Corvette. He did an AMAZING job and the Ceramic Pro he put on my car makes it look 1000% better! I had some oxidation on a couple parts and alot of dirt embedded in the paint because I used to have to drive on a dirt road everyday with it. The car now looks like shes never seen dirt before. The difference between what I gave him and what he returned to me is night and day. He also has really amazing prices. You will definitely get more than you are paying for if you choose to give Matthew your business. I'll definitely be coming back."

"Matthew turned my daily driver that I thought was beyond help into something I barely even want to drive anymore it’s so nice looking. The paint correction and ceramic coating he did was perfect. It looks so good I might try to sell it to Carvana in this market. You wouldn’t know this car has sat outside in direct sunlight /Uv damage for 7+ years ever since I bought it from its original owner, and it looks like there’s a fresh new coat of paint on it , it’s crazy how good it came out."

"Thank you so much Matthew! When I dropped the car off the paint looked awful, it was full of scratches and bugs that wouldn’t come off. Matthew didn’t rush and treated me like family and my car like it was his own! On the day of pick up my car looked brand new! Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings made the process extremely easy and affordable. I cannot recommend Matthew enough. If you want your car to look brand new and have the best service possible - hit him up!"

SB3 Coatings PH NEUTRAL SOAP

Why do we suggest using a pH neutral soap from SB3 Coatings in your foam cannon/to clean your vehicle? We use pH neutral soaps as they are the safest type of soap that works on your ceramic coating and clear bra/paint protection film/PPF. However, Ceramic coatings in particular can become “clogged” over time (reducing their hydrophobic properties), but pH neutral soap is the least likely to do that.

Every auto detail, ceramic coating, or clear bra/paint protection film/PPF job we do starts with a decontamination/wash, and potentially clay bar, iron and fallout remover, and/or paint correction/paint enhancement. We do this to ensure the paint is in the best possible condition before we start our process.

For this, we use an MTM Hydro foam cannon, and we mix 2oz (60ml) of SB3 Coatings pH neutral soap per container of water. Ensure that you fill the foam cannon with water FIRST, or else the suds will overflow out of the container, making a quick job messy and take much longer to fill.

INstructions:

This is a very simple process, but these are the steps we use:

First, Fill the container with water and then 2oz of SB3 Coatings pH neutral soap. We have a measuring cup to measure out the soap, but you can eyeball it, or make a mark on the foam cannon container.
Secondly, Shake the container to mix the SB3 Coatings pH neutral soap and water.
Then, rinse the vehicle from top to bottom, side to side.
Adjust your spray pattern on your MTM Hydro foam cannon (or whatever brand you use).
Foam the vehicle using SB3 Coatings pH neutral soap.
Hand-wash the vehicle using an Autofiber (or similar) soft microfiber wash mitt, using the minimal amount of pressure necessary. Again, wash top to bottom, side to side, so the suds from the SB3 Coatings soap does not carry dirt from the top down to an already-cleaned area. Do not use the same mitt you use on the paint, on the wheels.
Rinse the vehicle off, again going top to bottom, side to side.
Dry the vehicle using an Autofiber or similar drying towel, or let it air dry if you have an Adam’s Deionized Spotless water system like we do.
