What it costs
Ceramic Coating & PPF Pricing in Rockford
Paint correction starts around $299, ceramic coating starts around $1,499, and paint protection film runs from around $1,500 for partial-front coverage to $4,500+ for full-vehicle coverage.
Final price depends on vehicle size, paint condition, coating tier, or how much of the car is wrapped in film. Get a firm number before anything is scheduled.
What moves the number
- Vehicle size: coupes and sedans cost less than trucks and SUVs
- Paint condition: more swirling and oxidation means more correction time
- Coating tier: multi-year coatings cost more than single-year products
- PPF coverage: partial-front vs. full-vehicle film
- Bundling: coating after correction, or PPF plus coating, often costs less than booking separately
What does not change it
The price for the work agreed doesn't change once it starts. If something about the paint's actual condition changes the scope, that gets discussed before continuing, not added to the bill afterward.
Common questions
Pricing questions
Is a quote free?
A quote based on photos or an in-person look at the car is free, and the number is confirmed before any work begins.
Does bundling services save money?
Often, yes. Correction before coating and PPF-plus-coating packages are common combinations that typically cost less together than booked as separate appointments.
Why does coating cost so much more than a regular detail?
A basic detail is a wash and clean. Coating requires full decontamination, correction where needed, and a multi-hour cured application process, plus a product that has to actually hold up for years.
Do larger vehicles cost more?
Yes, for coating and PPF specifically, since both are priced by surface area. A truck or SUV takes more material and more labor than a coupe.
