“I just used Shawn again to ceramic coat my car… what an awesome job he did! My car looks better than when I picked it up from the dealership. I have used other detailers in the past, but no one as knowledgeable and as “detail oriented’” ( no pun intended) as Shawn. This guy is the real deal. He will not disappoint. Shawn’s work is top notch and meticulous. He’s now my go to guy for anything detailing."
When I started Tedrow’s Mobile Detailing here in New Rochelle and the surrounding areas, it wasn’t just about clean cars — it was about preserving vehicles the way they deserve to be cared for. After seeing too many beautiful cars damaged by harsh washes, neglect, or quick fixes, I began offering ceramic coatings not as an upsell — but as a long-term investment in your paint, finish, and pride of ownership.
This service is designed for those who want their vehicle to turn heads not just today, but for years. Every application is done by hand — by me — with the same attention I’d give to my own.
Your vehicle deserves more than just a basic wax. At Tedrow’s Mobile Detailing, we provide a high-end ceramic coating service designed to protect, preserve, and enhance your vehicle’s finish for years to come. Learn more about all of our paint protection options here.
What Is Ceramic Coating?
We offer professional ceramic coating in Westchester County, bringing advanced protection directly to your driveway in towns like Scarsdale, Larchmont, Pelham, and New Rochelle.
Ceramic coating is an advanced, liquid-applied protection that bonds to your car's surface to create a durable, glossy shield. It offers long-term defense against UV rays, water spots, oxidation, and environmental contaminants—far beyond what waxes or sealants can offer. The result? A deep, reflective shine and much easier maintenance.
Our Ceramic Coating Process
Step 1: Exterior Wash & Decontamination
We begin with a comprehensive hand wash, including wheels, tires, wheel wells, and jambs. This is followed by an iron fallout treatment and clay bar decontamination to remove bonded contaminants and leave the surface silky smooth.
Step 2: Surface Preparation
The vehicle is wiped down with a high-grade isopropyl solution to eliminate any polishing oils or residue, ensuring proper ceramic bonding.
Step 3: Ceramic Coating Application
We apply a premium ceramic coating by hand, carefully panel by panel. This creates a semi-permanent layer of protection and enhanced gloss that lasts years—not weeks.
Step 4: Curing & Final Inspection
The vehicle undergoes a safe curing period, followed by a thorough inspection to ensure even coverage and a flawless finish.
Recommended Add-On: Paint Correction & Enhancement
While ceramic coatings add protection and shine, they don’t fix paint imperfections. For vehicles that are not brand new, we strongly recommend our Paint Correction & Enhancement service to remove swirls, hazing, and light scratches before coating is applied. This step dramatically enhances the clarity and depth of your paint.
Choosing the right ceramic coating provider can be difficult — especially when so many companies promise similar results. At Tedrow’s Mobile Detailing, we don’t just apply product — we provide protection, presentation, and personalized service. Every vehicle we coat is treated with the same level of precision and pride we’d offer to a show car. We’ve worked with high-end daily drivers, classics, and everything in between. No matter your car’s purpose, it deserves to look its best and stay protected — effortlessly.

Maintenance After Coating
Protecting your investment doesn’t stop after the coating is applied. While ceramic coatings provide exceptional durability, they still benefit from regular, gentle care. Routine maintenance helps preserve the hydrophobic properties, deep gloss, and overall effectiveness of the coating. We recommend a monthly maintenance schedule using pH-neutral products and soft materials to avoid any unnecessary wear on your finish. Tedrow’s Mobile Detailing offers customized maintenance plans that are ceramic-safe and designed to keep your vehicle looking flawless year-round.
Bundle With a Full Reset
If your vehicle needs more than just exterior protection, consider bundling this service with our Full Reset Premium Interior & Exterior Detail. This package restores both the inside and outside of your car to like-new condition — making it the ideal time to lock in that fresh finish with a professional ceramic coating. Bundling services not only saves time, but ensures complete transformation and long-term preservation inside and out.
How long does ceramic coating last?
Our coatings typically last 2 to 5 years, depending on maintenance, environmental exposure, and driving habits.
Will it make my car scratch-proof?
Not quite. While ceramic coatings are highly resistant to minor scratches and marring, they don’t make your vehicle impervious. That said, they greatly reduce the risk of damage and make washing far safer.
How do I maintain a coated vehicle?
Avoid automatic car washes. Use a gentle pH-neutral soap and soft microfiber towels. We’re happy to recommend products and offer ongoing maintenance.
