C8 Corvette protected with PPF and Ceramic Coatings

Adam Lambert • December 11, 2024

With the release of the 2020 Chevrolet Corvette this became Chevrolet's first take on the mid-engine sports car. Though it was met with some slight fears it quickly became once again one of the best bang for the buck performance sports cars available and for good reason. With a naturally aspirated V8 pumping out 495 horsepower and a 0-60 time of 2.5 seconds this car is sure to stay on everyone's radar for years to come!

After waiting for decades to finally buy himself the car of his dreams we quickly became on of the first stops after purchase to help keep everything protected and looking pristine for years to come!

The Decontamination Wash

A sports car is covered in foam and sitting on the ground.

Every project begins with a very thorough decontamination wash. We want to make sure that any fallout, grime, tar, sap, overspray, etc. is all safely removed before any application of paint protection film or ceramic coatings can happen. We begin with washing the wheels and tires followed by an application of iron/ fallout remover and a foam bath. After dwelling for several minutes and rinsed off, another foam bath is applied and the hand wash process can begin. Once this is complete then the vehicle can finally be pulled in for a clay bar treatment and onto the lift for the start of the PPF application.

Ceramic Coating - Modesta BC04

This customer opted for one of my personal favorite - Modesta BC04 ceramic coating. Boasting a 5+ yr durability rating, this thick, durable, high gloss ceramic coating has been one of our customers favorites. This coating actually has a pretty unique application and reacts with water to start the curing process and is finished up with a session with the IR heat lamp. First though, a healthy mid level polish and a thick layer of Modesta's primer polish!
