On Hilton Head Island, salt air is non-negotiable. Whether your vehicle is parked oceanfront in Sea Pines, under live oaks in Palmetto Dunes, or near the water off Squire Pope Road, the 365-day coastal climate means accelerated clear-coat oxidation, swirl marks from improper hand-washing, and constant re-contamination from salt spray and bridge traffic. A ceramic coating from Lux Detailer creates a sacrificial hydrophobic barrier — UV-resistant, chemically stable, and easier to maintain than any wax or sealant.

9H ceramic coating over decontaminated paint — 2 to 3 years of gloss and protection with proper care.
Ceramic coating protects and enhances the paint you have. It does not remove existing swirls or scratches — to correct the paint first, choose the package below.
Our most popular coating — the paint is corrected first, then sealed under 9H ceramic. 3 to 5 years of protection with proper care.
Correcting before coating is what makes the finish last. The coating locks in corrected paint rather than sealing swirls underneath it.
Our most protective package — corrected paint, a 9H base coat, and a specialty ceramic top coat. 5 to 7 years of protection with proper care.
The top coat adds depth, slickness and durability over the base layer.
A large vehicle means a 3-row SUV, van, lifted or dually truck, or anything oversized. The fee is shown on each package above. Glass and wheel coating can be added as a $399 bundle. Heavy pet hair, embedded stains or sand may need Custom Work at $120 per hour, always quoted on-site before we start.
Our ceramic coating process begins with a multi-stage paint correction to remove swirl marks, scratches. And oxidation — because ceramic coating locks in whatever condition your paint is in.Once the surface is perfected, we apply professional-grade SiO2 ceramic coating in controlled conditions using infrared curing technology. The result is a permanent hydrophobic shield that repels water, UV rays, bird droppings, tree sap, and road chemicals. Every application includes full paint decontamination, clay bar treatment, and multiple inspection passes under LED lighting to ensure flawless coverage.

Yes. Golf carts are a primary mode of transportation on Hilton Head, especially in Sea Pines, Palmetto Dunes, and Shipyard. We clean, protect, and restore golf cart interiors, exteriors, and vinyl seats. Salt air and sun exposure are particularly harsh on golf cart surfaces.
A professional ceramic coating is the best long-term protection against Hilton Head’s salt air. It creates a hydrophobic barrier that repels salt moisture, UV rays, and environmental contaminants. Combined with regular washing every 2-3 weeks, your vehicle will resist the island’s corrosive environment much better than wax or sealant alone.
Absolutely. We service vehicles at rental homes, resort villas, and vacation properties across the island. Whether you’re a full-time resident in Hilton Head Plantation or visiting for the week, we bring our full mobile detailing setup directly to your location.
Hilton Head Island’s ocean-front exposure creates one of the harshest ceramic coating environments on the East Coast. Salt spray from the Atlantic carries mineral deposits that etch into unprotected paint within weeks, while the intense coastal UV — amplified by reflection off the beach and lagoon surfaces — fades and oxidizes clear coat faster than inland areas. Vehicles in Sea Pines, Palmetto Dunes, Hilton Head Plantation, Port Royal, and Shipyard face round-the-clock salt and UV exposure. A professional ceramic coating from Lux Detailer creates a semi-permanent hydrophobic barrier that locks out salt, water spots, and UV damage — keeping your car protected through the full island season without constant detailing. We install Gtechniq and IGL coatings on-site at your villa, home, or resort.
