PREP WASH & SURFACE DECONTAMINATION

We started with a comprehensive preparation wash designed for vehicles receiving paint correction and coating treatments. Using the double-bucket method and pH-neutral soaps, we gently but thoroughly removed surface dirt, grime, and any waxes or fillers applied at the factory or dealership. We then followed up with a clay bar treatment to extract embedded contaminants from the clear coat, leaving behind a clean surface ready for the steps to follow.

LEVEL 1 PAINT CORRECTION

Next, we addressed the light swirl marks and minor holograms commonly found on new factory paint. Our Level 1 Paint Correction process is a two-stage polish using a dual-action machine and a light-cut polishing compound. This approach smooths the paint’s surface, increases gloss, and removes faint imperfections—without completely shaving off the clear coat.

Proper correction is critical before installing paint protection film (PPF) or applying a ceramic coating. Any flaws left in the paint will be permanently sealed underneath, so this step ensures we’re working with a perfectly even, high-gloss foundation.



Full Front PPF + Rocker Panels USING SunTek Ultra Gloss

With the paint now flawless, we moved into protection mode. For this car we used SunTek Ultra Gloss PPF across all high-impact zones:

• Full Hood
• Full Fenders
• Front Bumper
• Headlights & Fog Lights
• Mirrors
• Rocker Panels
• 
  

As a certified PPF installer, our installation process goes beyond standard coverage. We use custom-cut patterns and edge-wrapping techniques to achieve seamless transitions and minimize visible lines. This ultra-clear film offers self-healing technology, excellent stain resistance, and optical clarity—making it nearly invisible to the eye while offering robust protection against rock chips, road rash, and insect acid. For Model 3 owners in Florida (or anywhere with unpredictable road conditions for that matter), high-quality PPF is non-negotiable if you want long-term results.

MODESTA BC-08 & BC-06 COATINGS

Once the film was in place, we applied Modesta BC-08 - one of the best ceramic coating options available for vehicles like the Model 3 - to the body. This isn’t your average DIY coating—BC-08 uses a Neosilica Matrix infused with zirconium, forming a thick, glass-like layer that enhances gloss, improves UVA/UVB resistance, and delivers excellent hydrophobic performance allows water droplets to roll off with ease. This auto ceramic coating is essential because it acts as a self-sacrificing barrier, helping to prevent swirl marks, chemical staining, and oxidation. And thanks to its water-repelling surface tension, the Tesla will now stay cleaner for longer and require less effort/time when washing.

Afterward, we removed all four wheels and applied Modesta BC-06, a high-temperature glass coating designed to endure heat up to 1,300 degrees Celsius. This is important since oftentimes when you're breaking hard at the last minute, it can kick up unwanted dirt and gravel onto your car. Brake dust is one of the most aggressive contaminants your wheels will face—and on EVs like the Tesla Model 3, regenerative braking doesn’t eliminate the problem entirely.

Using a precision spray gun, we coated the wheels and calipers with this ultra-durable, nano-thin layer that prevents brake dust from sticking to the finish. The result? Easier maintenance, longer life, and a much cleaner appearance between washes that will leave you worry-free.

Gtechniq G1 Smart Glass Coating on Windshield + Glass Roof

To round out the protection package, we treated both the front windshield and expansive glass roof with Gtechniq G1 Clear Vision Smart Glass. This advanced coating forms a hydrophobic barrier on exterior glass, helping to provide unparalleled water repellency and improve visibility/clarity. For the windshield, this is especially crucial as it offers improved visibility during Florida rainstorms, reduced glare from oncoming headlights at night, and faster clearing of fog or dew. It’s also helpful during early morning commutes or when passing trucks throw mist and road grime your way.

On the glass roof, G1 amplifies the Tesla Model 3’s panoramic experience. With the surface crystal clear, passengers can enjoy unobstructed views of cotton candy sunsets and starlit skies—without the haze or streaks that untreated glass can accumulate over time. It's a subtle upgrade that makes every evening drive feel more cinematic and luxurious. Why not get the most out of every feature your vehicle has to offer?

Both surfaces received two coats for maximum durability - this protection can last up to two years under normal driving conditions. By adding this coating, you car can enjoy less maintenance overall, keeping the glass surfaces cleaner for longer.

THE FINAL RESULT

With only the best ceramic coatings and durable glass and wheel protection applied by experienced professionals, this Model 3 now boasts luxe protection that matches its modern technology. Even with brand-new luxury cars, they often only come with the basic, standard features and finishes that come with routine manufacturing - and can certainly benefit from upgrades that enhance its cutting-edge performance.
