Detailing restores your vehicle to like-new condition inside and out.

Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that bonds to your vehicle's paint at a molecular level, creating a durable protective layer. This 9H nano-ceramic coating provides long-lasting gloss, hydrophobic properties, and protection against environmental contaminants, UV rays, and minor scratches.
When properly maintained, our professional ceramic coating can provide protection for up to 7 years. The longevity depends on factors such as maintenance, environmental conditions, and how the vehicle is cared for after application.
Ceramic coating provides multiple benefits: long-lasting gloss and shine, hydrophobic properties (water beads and slides off), protection against UV damage and oxidation, resistance to chemical stains and etching, easier cleaning and maintenance, enhanced paint clarity, and protection against minor scratches and swirl marks.
Yes, ceramic coating replaces traditional wax and sealants. Unlike wax, which needs to be reapplied every few months, ceramic coating provides years of protection with a single application. It also offers superior durability, hydrophobic properties, and UV protection compared to conventional wax products.
Many vehicle owners find ceramic coating to be a worthwhile investment for several reasons: it protects your vehicle's paint long-term, reduces the need for regular waxing, makes cleaning easier, maintains your vehicle's appearance and value, and provides professional-grade protection that lasts years rather than months.
Ceramic coating is ideal for all types of vehicles including daily drivers, luxury vehicles, sports cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, boats, and RVs. It's particularly beneficial for vehicles that are regularly exposed to harsh weather, road salt, bird droppings, tree sap, or intense sun.
Paint correction is a multi-stage process that removes or significantly reduces surface imperfections in your vehicle's paint. These imperfections include swirl marks, scratches, oxidation, water spots, etching from bird droppings or acid rain, and other defects that dull the paint's appearance.
Paint correction can significantly reduce or eliminate light to moderate scratches and swirl marks. However, deep scratches that have penetrated through the clear coat may not be completely removable. We'll assess your vehicle's condition and provide an honest evaluation of expected results before proceeding.
Single-stage paint correction uses one compound and pad combination to remove minor defects. Multi-stage correction uses multiple steps (compounding, polishing, finishing) to address more severe imperfections and achieve a higher level of clarity and reflectivity. The appropriate method depends on your vehicle's condition and your goals.
Paint correction is a time-intensive process that typically takes anywhere from several hours to multiple days, depending on the severity of defects, the size of the vehicle, and the level of correction desired. We'll provide an estimate when you schedule your consultation.
Yes! Paint correction before ceramic coating is highly recommended. Ceramic coating locks in whatever finish is beneath it, so you want the paint to be as perfect as possible first. Correction removes defects so the coating can bond to a clean, smooth surface, maximizing both appearance and protection.
Sparkle NC offers four comprehensive detailing packages: Bronze (starting at $150 for cars, $175 for SUVs), Silver (starting at $250 for cars, $275 for SUVs), Gold (custom pricing based on vehicle condition), and Diamond (exclusive for Gold Members). Each package includes progressively more services and protection.
Pricing varies based on vehicle size (sedans vs. SUVs vs. trucks), the condition of the vehicle, and the level of cleaning or correction required. Heavily soiled vehicles or those with significant paint defects require more time and effort, which is reflected in the pricing.
