Professional Ceramic Coating Installer

Hey guys,

Title really says it all, looking for a good Ceramic Coater in the area. I have an appointment with SigmaKore on November 4th, but wanted to hear feedback as their service will be $1300.

Thanks,

Jack

I had Denver Auto Shield do their Level 2 paint correction & ceramic coating, followed by installation of their “Driver’s Package” paint protection film.

Very, VERY impressed-- they were actually wearing anti-scratch suits while working on the cars.

I had SigmaKore do a ceramic coating on my wife's RDX. It was fine for a daily that lives outside, but I thought that the Denver Auto Shield guys just did a better job and the shine seems to be better.

For comparison purposes: The Driver's package at Denver Auto Shield included: front bumper, headlamps, full hod, full front fenders, rocker panels, lower door strip, A pillars, roof strip, mirrors, door cups and rear quarter panel for $2470 (with a 5% discount for military). Door edges, enlarged rear area (where the M2C gets wide) and a strip under the gas cap were included at no charge.

The Level 2 ceramic coating was $1425 (with a 5% discount for military).

I had the wheels removed and the wheels, interior barrel and brake calipers ceramic coated as well for $285 (again, with a 5% discount for military).

Total was $4180 out the door.

SigmaKore was $1250 for ceramic coating.

Fwiw, in the spring, I'll be bringing my wife's Miata to Denver Auto Shield instead of SigmaKore. Make of that what you will.

I'm in Littleton if you'd like to look at the M2C or the RDX.

This is the kind of feedback I'm looking for - thank you very much!

Not sure how active you are in this forum, but do you have a 6 month review on the work done here? Is it holding up well? I jumped in and am just entering production now so I'm researching paint protection and local shops. The last time I had anything done was in Boulder, but that shop is long gone now. A friend had some Xpel work done in Loveland and although quality of work was okay, level of protection didn't live up to his standards. I25 isn't a friendly highway to paint.

Getting on jet, so this'll be quick.

Denver Auto Shield? Yes, yes, oh God YES!

SigmaKore? Meh.

I'm in Littleton if you want to see their work.

Appreciate the recommendation. Ended up with scheduling Denver Auto Shield too after reading this.

I guess I should follow up and say "ditto". Though I chose to just have them do ppf and tint. I still like to do the polish and coating myself. I did order Gyeon coating products based on their recommendation. My appointment is scheduled for mid July. I'll post pics.

I too had a great experience with them. Washing the car is so brilliantly easy to bring it back to that great shine.
