The process
How we do it.
Paint-depth inspection
We measure clear-coat thickness across every panel before a single pad touches your paint - maximum correction, zero risk.
Decontamination
Iron remover, clay bar, and a foam wash strip embedded contaminants from the surface and pores.
Paint correction
Multi-stage rotary and dual-action polishing under LED inspection lamps eliminates swirls, oxidation, and holograms.
Coating application
The ceramic system is hand-applied panel-by-panel, leveled, and buffed to a liquid-gloss finish.
Cure & warranty
The coating bonds over 24 hours. Your warranty is registered and documented to the vehicle.

Ceramic Coatings - questions
Good to know.
How long does a ceramic coating last?
We offer 1-3, 3-5, and 5-7 year systems. Each is a manufacturer-backed warranty, documented to your vehicle's VIN so it transfers to future owners and adds resale value.
Will it protect against Arizona sun and hard water?
Yes. The coating resists UV oxidation and prevents mineral water from etching into the clear coat. Water beads and sheets off, carrying dust with it - no more water spots.
Can you coat a matte or satin finish?
Absolutely. We use matte-safe ceramics that preserve the factory satin sheen - no gloss, no polishing, just protected.
Do I need paint correction first?
Most vehicles benefit from at least a single-stage correction - a coating locks in whatever's underneath. We measure and advise before starting.
The founder · Gilbert, AZ
The hands behind the finish.
Szine Detailing didn't start in a boardroom - it started in a Gilbert driveway, with a twenty-year-old local who refused to cut corners. He turned a relentless work ethic and a deep pride in his craft into the Valley's go-to mobile detail operation.
Client reviews from Google.
Scottsdale, AZ
"Thomas did an amazing job on my 911. Spent over 8 hours perfecting every panel under inspection lights before laying the ceramic down. The gloss is like looking into liquid glass. Highly recommend Szine to anyone who actually cares about their paint."
Chandler, AZ
"Best mobile detailer in Arizona without question. Thomas showed up with an unbranded, immaculate mobile rig carrying his own generator and deionized water. Zero mineral spots, zero swirls left behind. My car looks better than delivery day."
Paradise Valley, AZ
"Two young kids and light tan leather meant stains everywhere. Thomas extracted every mark, sanitized all seams, and left a factory matte finish with no sticky greasy residue. White-glove service right in our driveway."
Gilbert, AZ
"Factory Tesla paint is soft and full of imperfections from transport. Szine measured the clear coat depth to the micron and leveled all the haze before ceramic coating. Rain and desert dust literally sheet right off. 10/10."
Phoenix, AZ
"Over 300 five-star reviews on Google gave me total confidence and Tomas exceeded every expectation. Punctual, polite, meticulously thorough with iron decontamination and steam extraction. Worth every single penny."
Tempe, AZ
"Took out 95%+ of swirl marks created by previous automated washes. Under direct sunlight the metallic flake sparkles without a single hologram. Thomas is an artist at what he does."
