See how it works →What to charge for ceramic coatings and how to build a quote that covers the real work. These are the coating-pricing questions customers and detailers search for.
U.S. ceramic coating prices typically run from about $500 for an entry, single-stage coating on a small car to $1,500–$3,000+ for multi-year coatings with full paint correction on larger vehicles.
The price should cover prep and paint-correction hours (the bulk of the work), the coating product, consumables (pads, compound, tape), and your margin. The calculator above adds those up and suggests a quote at your target margin.
A proper quote covers four things:
Bigger or more swirled vehicles need more correction time, which is why quotes vary. Set the vehicle size, correction level, and product cost in the tool so the price reflects the actual job.
Because the coating bottle is a small part of the cost — labor is the driver. A car that needs two-stage correction can take 8–15+ hours before the coating even goes on. Coating longevity (1-year vs 5-year vs 9H professional) and vehicle size also move the price. That's why a real quote is built from hours plus products, never a flat number.
Track your correction time honestly — it's the number-one place coating jobs blow the budget. Charge for the vehicle's actual condition, not a flat rate, and always add consumables, because pads and compound add up fast. Enter the numbers here before you quote so the price clears your margin.
