Ceramic Coating
4 different levels of our XPEL coatings are the ultimate solution to protect your vehicle from Colorado’s harsh environment while delivering a stunning, high-gloss finish.
Why Choose Gloss?
- Up to 8 Years of Durability – Long-term ceramic protection backed by XPEL’s trusted warranty.
- Ultra-Gloss Finish – Amplifies paint color and delivers a mirror-like shine.
- Extreme Hydrophobic Properties – Water, mud, and grime bead and roll off with ease, reducing maintenance.
- UV Resistance – Shields your paint from fading and oxidation, perfect for Colorado’s high-altitude sun exposure.
- Chemical & Environmental Defense – Protects against road salts, mag chloride, bird droppings, tree sap, and more.
- Scratch Resistance – Resists minor scratches and swirl marks, keeping your vehicle’s finish looking its best.
Why You Need Ceramic Coating in Colorado
☀️ High UV Exposure: Intense year-round sun at altitude accelerates fading and clear coat breakdown.
🧂 Winter Road Treatments: Mag chloride and salt increase the risk of corrosion and surface damage.
🌲 Mountain Adventures: Gravel, sap, and dust from off-road excursions put your paint at risk.
🐶 Family & Pets: Day-to-day wear from kids, pets, and gear adds to the challenge of keeping your vehicle pristine.
XPEL ceramic coatings provide the first line of defense against these elements — so your vehicle stays protected and looks better, longer.

Car Detailing Made Easy
be ready for a clean car! Gloss makes it easy to schedule, comes on time and does a great job. And the worker that did the detail for me had a wonderful kind attitude.
Cleaning Mom's Car
I brought my mom’s car in for a surprise and did a full detailed clean. The 10 yr old car came back shiny and clean! Just like brand new! Full service shop. Has a great place inside to sit and wait for the clean to finish with a cute shop and delicious coffee!
Excellent Car Wash
Excellent experience. My car was DIRTY after many Subaru activities in Colorado. Gloss was quick, and did a wonderful job. I went inside for a coffee and surprisingly, it was one of the best cups I’ve had in Boulder. An unexpected nice surprise 10/10 experience.
