Unleash Long-Lasting Shine: Spotless Detailing Group's Entry-Level Protection with Gtechniq EXOv5

At Spotless Detailing, when customers book in for ceramic coating, one of the most common surprises is how much prep goes into the process before the coating even touches the paintwork. Why? Because ceramic coating is only as good as the surface it bonds to. You can have the best coating in the world, but if it’s applied over embedded contaminants or minor paint defects, it won’t perform or last the way it should. That’s why our team puts such a huge focus on prep work and paint decontamination before every ceramic job. Here’s a breakdown of how we make sure your car’s paint is in prime condition before protection begins.

When it comes to protecting your car’s paint, there are two standout options: ceramic coating and paint protection film (PPF). Both are designed to help preserve your vehicle’s finish, but they work in very different ways and choosing the right one depends on your car, your driving habits, and your long term goals. At Spotless Detailing, we offer both options at our Perth and Elgin studios, and we’re often asked which is “better.” The truth is, it depends. Here's what you need to know.

As the nights draw in and the temperatures drop, it’s easy to forget what’s happening to your car’s paintwork under the surface. But if there’s ever a time to protect your vehicle, it’s right now, before the salt, grime and winter abuse kicks in. ❄️ Why Protect Now, Not Mid Winter Once the roads are covered in grit, mud and salt, your car is already on the back foot. Applying protection before exposure helps seal the paintwork while it’s still in good condition, not after the damage is done. Salt and grit wear down gloss and increase the risk of corrosion Cold temperatures make contaminants harder to remove once embedded Rain, sleet and frost reduce the visibility of fine scratches until the sun comes out again in spring, and all is revealed

Wee cars get the Spotless treatment too

There’s nothing quite like that new car feeling. Glossy paint, spotless wheels, and a fresh interior make every drive feel special. The challenge, of course, is keeping that look and feel long after the day you pick it up. The good news? With a few simple habits, you can keep your car looking sharp week after week, preserve its value, and maintain that sense of pride every time you walk up to it.

Car care has come a long way from the days of hand waxes and polishing. Today, technology is reshaping how we protect, maintain, and enjoy our vehicles, and it’s only accelerating. At Spotless Detailing, we see these innovations first hand in our Perth and Elgin studios, and it’s clear that the future of car protection is smarter, more durable, and more sustainable than ever before. So, where is detailing headed in the years to come?
