At August Precision, we believe every vehicle deserves the highest level of care and protection—especially a workhorse like the 2017 RAM 1500. Known for its rugged build, powerful performance, and bold styling, the RAM 1500 is a truck that turns heads and works hard. That’s why our team recently completed a professional ceramic coating application on a beautifully maintained 2017 RAM 1500, enhancing its aesthetics and adding long-term surface protection.
Why Ceramic Coating is Perfect for the RAM 1500
The RAM 1500 is built for tough tasks, whether it’s towing, off-roading, or daily driving. But that heavy use can take a toll on the truck’s exterior over time. Dirt, mud, road salt, UV rays, and harsh weather all contribute to paint degradation and loss of gloss. That’s where ceramic coating makes a huge difference.
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to the exterior surfaces of the vehicle. Once cured, it forms a durable, protective layer that chemically bonds with the factory paint. This provides superior resistance to environmental contaminants and enhances the vehicle’s shine far beyond what a wax or sealant can offer.
Our Professional Application Process
Every ceramic coating job at August Precision starts with meticulous preparation. For this RAM 1500, we began with a deep clean to remove surface dirt and decontaminants. Next came a paint correction process to eliminate minor swirls, scratches, and oxidation—ensuring the surface was flawless before the coating was applied.
Once the paint was perfected, we applied a high-grade professional ceramic coating, ensuring complete and even coverage on all painted surfaces. The result? A mirror-like finish and a layer of protection that will last for years—not weeks or months like traditional waxes.
Benefits the Owner Will Enjoy
After the coating, the RAM 1500 owner can expect a wide range of benefits, including:
- Hydrophobic surface: Water beads and rolls off the paint, taking dirt and grime with it. This makes the truck significantly easier to wash and maintain.
- UV protection: Ceramic coating protects the clear coat and base paint from fading and oxidation caused by prolonged sun exposure.
- Chemical resistance: Road salts, bird droppings, bug splatter, and other contaminants are less likely to etch into the paint.
- Enhanced gloss: The coating boosts the truck’s deep, rich paint color and delivers a consistently polished look.
- Long-term value: By maintaining the truck’s appearance and minimizing damage, ceramic coating helps preserve its resale value.
Ceramic Coating vs. Wax for Trucks
Many truck owners still rely on wax as their go-to protection. While wax offers a temporary gloss and some water beading, it simply can’t compete with the durability of ceramic coatings. A properly applied ceramic coating can last two to five years or more, depending on maintenance, compared to just a few weeks for wax. For a vehicle like the RAM 1500 that’s built to be used and enjoyed, ceramic coating is the smart, long-term investment.
