Smoked Vinyl by East Coast Pride Wraps

Long-Lasting Protection for Paint and Vinyl

Whether your vehicle is freshly wrapped or factory painted, ceramic coating is one of the best ways to protect your finish from the elements. At East Coast Pride Wraps, we offer professional ceramic coating services in Columbia SC designed to shield your vehicle from UV damage, road grime, water spots, and minor scratches — all while making it easier to clean and maintain.

Applied by hand and cured with precision, our ceramic coatings form an invisible, durable layer that bonds with the surface of your wrap or paint. This not only extends the life of your vehicle’s finish but also keeps it looking glossy, smooth, and showroom-ready.

What Is Ceramic Coating?

Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer made from silica and other nanotechnology-based compounds. Once applied and cured, it chemically bonds to the surface of your vehicle, creating a hard, slick layer that repels water, dirt, and contaminants.

Ceramic coating isn’t a substitute for a wrap or paint job — it’s a premium upgrade that protects whatever’s underneath.

Why Coat a Vinyl Wrap?

Many clients think ceramic coating is only for painted cars, but it’s equally beneficial for wrapped vehicles. In fact, it helps preserve the finish and flexibility of your vinyl wrap by reducing contamination and making cleaning safer.
