15 businesses apply ceramic coating in Brea. Below is what they charge where they publish it, then the shops themselves. Film and correction have their own lists.
Not one of the 20 businesses here lists a rate on its own website, which is common and worth knowing before you start calling. Use the national figures as your reference and ask for the quote in writing: ceramic coating runs $599 to $1,399, paint correction $345 to $700.
Shops that publish a price come first, then manufacturer credentials, then how much of the business is protection work. Rating breaks ties and nothing more, because nearly every shop in this trade sits between 4.7 and 5.0. Prices shown are the ones each shop advertises on its own site.

A coating is optically clear and it seals whatever is underneath, so applying one over swirled paint preserves the swirls for the life of the coating. Paint correction runs $345 to $700 nationally. Ask any Brea shop whether correction is included in the coating price and how many stages.
No. Placement is not for sale on this site. The order below is set by what each shop publishes and what we can verify, and a shop that buys marketing from our parent company gets labeled as such rather than promoted.
Published rates are a range. What you pay comes down to size, paint condition and how much correction the finish needs first. Tell us the car and we will put it in front of shops that publish their pricing.
