At August Precision, we treat every vehicle as a work of art—but some projects stand out, like the recent ceramic coating service we performed on a 2018 Porsche 718 Cayman. This sleek mid-engine sports car arrived at our Raleigh facility already turning heads, but the owner wanted more than just showroom shine—they wanted lasting protection and enhanced aesthetics. That’s where our premium ceramic coating service came in.
Why Ceramic Coating for the Porsche 718 Cayman?
The Porsche 718 Cayman is known for its precise handling, balanced performance, and elegant design. However, even the finest vehicles are vulnerable to environmental damage. North Carolina’s mix of sun, rain, pollen, and road debris can take a toll on factory paint. Traditional waxing methods offer temporary gloss but break down quickly under these elements.
Our professional-grade ceramic coating provides a long-lasting shield against UV rays, oxidation, bird droppings, bug splatter, and road grime. For high-performance cars like the Cayman, ceramic coating isn’t just an upgrade—it’s a necessity to preserve value and performance appeal.
Preparation Is Everything
Before any ceramic coating application, meticulous preparation is key. Our team began with a multi-stage decontamination wash to strip away dirt, road film, and any prior waxes or sealants. Once clean, we conducted a full paint correction to remove micro-scratches and swirl marks that can dull the finish.
Paint correction is especially important on sports cars like the Cayman, where every curve and contour deserves mirror-like clarity. Once the paint was perfected, the surface was wiped down with a panel prep solution to ensure maximum bonding of the ceramic coating.
Premium Ceramic Coating Application
With the surface fully prepped, our technicians applied a multi-layer professional ceramic coating formulated for extreme durability and hydrophobic performance. As the coating bonded with the paint, it created a glossy, candy-like finish that instantly enhanced the depth and color of the Porsche’s bodywork.
Beyond aesthetics, the ceramic coating will provide years of protection. Water beads off effortlessly, dirt and grime have a harder time sticking, and routine washing becomes faster and safer with minimal scratching risk.
The Results: Showroom Shine, Long-Term Defense
The 2018 Porsche 718 Cayman looked nothing short of spectacular. The ceramic coating amplified the already eye-catching design, making it shimmer with a high-gloss finish that turned heads as it rolled out of our bay. More importantly, the coating will continue to protect the paint for years to come, keeping this investment in peak condition.
Ceramic coating not only improves visual appeal but also helps preserve resale value by maintaining the exterior’s like-new condition. For sports car owners in Raleigh and the surrounding areas, it’s one of the smartest investments you can make.
