At Kartal Auto, we specialize in providing advanced vehicle care solutions for luxury cars, including the prestigious Rolls Royce Silver Shadow. Recently, we had the privilege of completing a Ceramic Coating service for this iconic vehicle in Dubai, ensuring its stunning appearance stays protected for years to come. During our in-depth assessment, we identified a few issues that required immediate attention to ensure the ceramic coating would perform at its best and deliver long-lasting protection.
Here’s a breakdown of the issues we found and the solutions we implemented to ensure the Rolls Royce Silver Shadow’s paint is fully protected, while maintaining its luxurious shine and smoothness:
Key Issues Identified During the Rolls Royce Silver Shadow Ceramic Coating Service:
1. Surface Contaminants and Paint Impurities
- Issue: The vehicle’s paint was covered with surface contaminants, such as tar, tree sap, and iron fallout, which had adhered to the paint over time. These impurities were compromising the smoothness of the surface, making it challenging to apply an effective ceramic coating.
- Solution: We performed an intensive clay bar treatment, which removed all surface contaminants and impurities. This pre-coating stage ensured that the paint was clean and smooth, creating the perfect foundation for the ceramic coating to adhere and provide the highest level of protection.
2. Light Scratches and Swirl Marks
- Issue: The Rolls Royce Silver Shadow’s paint had several light scratches and swirl marks, often caused by improper washing techniques or general wear over time. These imperfections can affect the overall appearance and reduce the effectiveness of the ceramic coating.
- Solution: Before applying the ceramic coating, our experts performed a paint correction process, using professional-grade polishing machines to carefully eliminate surface scratches and swirl marks. By restoring the paint’s clarity and gloss, we ensured that the ceramic coating would be applied to a flawless surface, enhancing its visual appeal.
3. Faded or Dull Paintwork
- Issue: The paint on the Rolls Royce had faded slightly due to sun exposure and environmental factors. While the vehicle’s overall appearance was still luxurious, the paint lacked the vibrant depth and gloss that the owner desired.
- Solution: We used advanced polishing techniques to bring back the vibrancy and shine of the paintwork, restoring its rich color and depth. Once the paint was restored, the ceramic coating was carefully applied, locking in the glossy finish and providing a protective layer against future UV damage.
4. Water Spots and Mineral Deposits
- Issue: Over time, the vehicle had accumulated water spots and mineral deposits on the paint, especially in areas where water had dried after washing. These spots can be stubborn to remove and affect the final finish of the vehicle.
- Solution: Our team used a specialized water spot remover and acid-based cleaner to safely remove any mineral deposits and water stains from the paint. This process ensured that no residue would remain, allowing the ceramic coating to bond more effectively to the paint surface.
5. Lack of Proper Paint Protection
- Issue: The Rolls Royce Silver Shadow had not previously been treated with a protective coating, leaving the paint vulnerable to contaminants, scratches, and fading caused by the harsh sun and environmental conditions in Dubai.
- Solution: After the vehicle’s surface was prepared, we applied a high-quality ceramic coating that provides long-lasting protection against water, dirt, UV rays, and chemical contaminants. This coating forms a hydrophobic layer that repels water, making washing easier and preventing water spots. Additionally, it adds a layer of scratch resistance, helping to maintain the vehicle’s pristine appearance for longer.
