16 businesses apply ceramic coating in Long Beach. Below is what they charge where they publish it, then the shops themselves. Film and correction have their own lists.
Not one of the 19 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.
