Ceramic Coating · Clive
Clive sits close to where three rivers meet the sea, and coastal air is hard on paint. Niah and Ben apply a professional ceramic coating at your home, adding a protective layer against salt and sun.
The Package
One professional coating, applied at your place and quoted for your car. If the paint needs correcting before it is sealed, Niah or Ben includes that in your quote so you know exactly what you are paying for.
Your paint sealed under a professional ceramic coating, so it stays glossier, washes easier and stands up to the Bay's sun and salt.

A hard, slick protective layer applied across every painted panel.
Worked in panel by panel, levelled off and left to cure.
The whole job is done where the car lives, anywhere in Hawke's Bay.
Niah or Ben explains the warranty on the phone before you book, so there are no surprises.
Why Bay For Ceramic Coating
A coating is protection you put on once and notice at every wash. Niah and Ben carefully prepare the paint, then apply a professional ceramic coating by hand on your Clive driveway. Afterwards, grime from SH51 and salt off the coast rinse away far more easily, and the paint keeps its gloss in the sun. The quote is set by the vehicle and how much preparation its paint needs.
Clive sits close to where the Ngaruroro, Tūtaekurī and Clive rivers meet the sea at the Waitangi estuary, and the salt air does not stop at the beach. With the strong Hawke's Bay sun on top, unprotected paint slowly loses its gloss. A professionally applied ceramic coating adds a protective layer against salt residue and UV, and keeps your paint slick and easy to wash.
How Clive Is Served
Niah and Ben come to you anywhere in Clive, from the streets along the Clive River to the homes out toward the coast. They set up on your driveway, and you hear back from Niah or Ben to arrange the day before anything is booked.
Between The Rivers And The Coast Road
The Coastal Route carries a lot of traffic between Napier and Hastings. Road grime builds up on the lower panels and wheels, and it gets tracked inside on every trip.
Hawke's Bay gets long, bright summers, and New Zealand UV is strong. Dark paint parked in it every day fades and loses its depth faster than paint kept under cover.
When the car is in use every day, washing tends to be quick: a brush wash on the way home or a wipe with whatever is in the boot. Both leave swirls that only machine polishing removes.
01
A coating is only as good as its application. It goes on panel by panel over properly prepared paint, then is levelled and left to cure.
02
Hawke's Bay is one of the sunniest parts of the country, and Napier sits right on the water. A coating gives the paint a buffer against both.
03
If the paint has swirls, Niah or Ben will tell you before it is coated and quote the correction, so you are not paying to seal defects in.
04
Niah and Ben apply it together at your place, with around five years of detailing experience each.
Hawke’s Bay Conditions
Four things cars here live with every day. Pick one.
On Unprotected Paint
Hawke's Bay is one of the sunniest regions in New Zealand, and summer UV is strong. Over time it fades and flattens paint, and dark colours show it first.
With A Ceramic Coating
A ceramic coating adds a protective layer over the clear coat, so the paint holds its depth and gloss for longer under a strong sun.
A coating does not stop stone chips or make paint scratch proof. It makes the paint far easier to keep, and far harder for the sun and the salt to wear down.
