Ceramic Pro 9H Ceramic Coating — Manchester's Certified Installer
Ceramic Pro 9H is a professional-grade SiO2 ceramic coating that bonds permanently with your vehicle's clear coat, delivering 9H hardness, UV protection, hydrophobic water-beading, and chemical resistance. Ceramic Pro Manchester is a certified Ceramic Pro installer — every application is registered with the manufacturer for full warranty coverage.
What Ceramic Pro 9H Does for Your Car
9H Hardness
The hardest ceramic coating available — 9H on the Mohs scale — protecting against light scratches, swirl marks, and surface abrasion.
UV Oxidation Protection
Permanently blocks UV radiation that causes paint to fade, oxidise, and lose depth over time. Essential for cars parked outdoors.
Hydrophobic Water Beading
Water beads and rolls off the surface, taking dirt and grime with it. Washing becomes faster and easier.
Chemical Resistance
Resists bird lime, tree sap, road salt, brake dust, and industrial fallout — common threats on Greater Manchester roads.
Deep Gloss Enhancement
Adds a wet, mirror-like depth to paintwork that wax and sealants cannot replicate. Your car looks better after coating than the day it was delivered.
Manufacturer Warranty
Certified installations are registered with Ceramic Pro. Top-tier packages include a manufacturer warranty of up to 9 years.

How We Apply Ceramic Coating in Manchester
Every ceramic coating application at Ceramic Pro Manchester follows this 6-step professional process — no shortcuts.
Pre-wash and foam decontamination
Two-bucket hand wash with pH-neutral snow foam pre-soak removes road grime and traffic film without causing micro-scratches.
Clay bar and chemical decontamination
Clay bar removes bonded surface contaminants — tar, iron deposits, tree sap. Iron fallout remover dissolves brake dust embedded in the clear coat.
Paint depth measurement
Every panel is measured with a paint depth gauge before polishing. This protects the clear coat and documents the vehicle's condition.
Machine polish / paint correction
We remove swirl marks, light scratches, water spots, and buffer trails using a dual-action or rotary polisher. Level depends on your chosen package.
IPA panel prep (wipe-down)
All polishing oils are removed with an isopropyl alcohol wipe-down, ensuring the ceramic coating bonds directly to clean clear coat.
Ceramic Pro 9H application and cure
Ceramic Pro 9H is applied panel by panel, levelled before curing, and left to cross-link. Vehicle remains in our studio for a minimum of 12 hours.

Ceramic Pro 9H applied by a certified installer typically lasts 2 to 5 years with correct maintenance. A single-layer application lasts 2–3 years; a multi-layer professional package lasts 4–5 years or more. Ceramic Pro's certified packages include a manufacturer warranty of up to 9 years. Longevity depends on wash technique, parking (indoor vs outdoor), and exposure to harsh chemicals.
Yes — paint correction is essential before ceramic coating. Ceramic Pro 9H bonds permanently to your clear coat and locks in the paint's condition at the time of application. If swirl marks, scratches, or water spots are present before coating, they will be permanently sealed beneath it. At Ceramic Pro Manchester, every package includes at least a single-stage polish. We measure paint depth before polishing to protect your clear coat.
A full ceramic coating appointment at Ceramic Pro Manchester takes 1 to 3 days depending on the package. A single-stage polish plus single-layer coating takes approximately 1 day. A full multi-stage paint correction plus multi-layer Ceramic Pro 9H application takes 2–3 days. The vehicle must remain dry for 24 hours after delivery to allow full curing.
Ceramic coating adds significant hardness (9H) to your vehicle's surface, which improves resistance to light scratches, swirl marks from washing, and fine stone chips. However, it does not provide complete protection against deep scratches or stone chips from high-speed impacts — that is the role of Paint Protection Film (PPF). Many customers choose to combine PPF on high-impact areas with ceramic coating over the entire vehicle for comprehensive protection.
