At August Precision, we recently had the pleasure of performing a full ceramic coating treatment on a 2021 Toyota 4Runner, right here in Raleigh, North Carolina. Known for its rugged capability and bold presence, this 4Runner deserved a protective finish that would enhance its appearance while standing up to the elements. Our premium ceramic coating service provided the perfect solution.
Why Ceramic Coating for the 4Runner?
The 2021 Toyota 4Runner is built for adventure, whether it’s cruising city streets or tackling backcountry trails. But constant exposure to UV rays, rain, road debris, and environmental contaminants can wear down even the toughest paint jobs over time. That’s where ceramic coating steps in.
Unlike traditional waxes or sealants, ceramic coatings create a durable, semi-permanent bond with the vehicle’s clear coat. This invisible layer delivers superior protection from oxidation, bird droppings, tree sap, bug splatter, and harmful UV rays—all while enhancing the deep, glossy look of the paint.
The August Precision Process
Our ceramic coating process is meticulous, designed to ensure every inch of the 4Runner receives attention and care. Here’s a breakdown of how we prepared and protected this client’s vehicle:
- Thorough Wash & DecontaminationWe began with a multi-stage wash using pH-balanced soaps and iron removers to eliminate surface contaminants. A clay bar treatment followed, ensuring the surface was smooth and contaminant-free.
- Paint CorrectionEven new or well-maintained vehicles like this 2021 4Runner can benefit from paint correction. We performed a light polish to remove micro-swirls and bring out the full depth and clarity of the paint.
- Ceramic Coating ApplicationWith the surface prepped, we applied our professional-grade ceramic coating by hand, panel by panel. This ensures even coverage and a perfect bond between the coating and the clear coat.
- Curing & Final InspectionAfter application, the vehicle was left to cure in our controlled environment to lock in the protection. We finished with a detailed inspection to ensure flawless results.

- Hydrophobic Finish – Water, dirt, and grime now bead and slide right off the surface.
