Ceramic coating application at APS in Austin, TX

Ceramic Coating

Your vehicle’s paint faces constant exposure to sun, dirt, bird droppings, and road grime. Our XPEL Fusion Plus Ceramic Coating gives it a durable, long-lasting layer of protection so it keeps looking its best for years.

Once applied, the coating bonds to your vehicle’s surface and creates a slick, hydrophobic finish. Water, dirt, and contaminants have a harder time sticking, which makes washing your car faster and easier. It also deepens your paint’s color and boosts gloss, bringing back that rich, showroom shine.

At APS, every ceramic coating installation starts with careful surface preparation, because a flawless finish depends on a clean, properly prepared surface. Our team takes the time to do it right, so you get a smooth, even result that lasts.

Whether you drive a daily commuter, a luxury vehicle, or a weekend showpiece, ceramic coating is one of the smartest ways to protect your investment and simplify maintenance. For even more complete protection, it pairs well with paint protection film.

Paint Protection Film

Rocks, gravel, road debris, and everyday wear can leave your car’s paint covered in chips and scratches. Our XPEL paint protection film (PPF), installed right here in Austin, creates a nearly invisible barrier that absorbs the damage so your paint doesn’t have to.

PPF is a clear, durable film applied directly to your vehicle’s painted surfaces. It guards against scratches, stone chips, bug splatter, and light abrasions while preserving your car’s original look. Because it’s transparent, your color and finish stay front and center, just better protected.

Our experienced installers use precise techniques to ensure clean edges, a seamless appearance, and a perfect fit for your vehicle’s make and model. You can choose full-body coverage for maximum protection or focus on high-impact areas like the hood, bumper, fenders, and mirrors.

Protecting your paint with PPF also helps maintain your vehicle’s appearance and resale value over time, saving you the cost and hassle of future paint repairs.

Windshield Protection Film

Your windshield takes a beating every time you drive. Flying gravel, road debris, and highway traffic can lead to chips, cracks, and pitting that not only look bad but also compromise your safety and visibility.

Our windshield protection film adds a tough, optically clear layer over the glass that absorbs impact and helps prevent damage before it starts. It reduces the risk of costly chips and cracks, and it helps keep your view clear and distraction-free, especially during long drives on Texas highways.

We work with XPEL, the top manufacturer in the States, so you can count on quality materials designed to perform. The film is installed with care and precision, so it blends in without affecting how you see the road.

Replacing a windshield can be expensive and time-consuming, and protection film is a smart, affordable way to avoid that headache. It’s a simple upgrade that adds lasting peace of mind every time you get behind the wheel.

Window Tint

Austin sunshine is great, but not when it’s beating down on you during your commute. The ceramic window tint we install at APS is designed to keep your vehicle cooler, more comfortable, and more private.

Our ceramic tint reduces glare, so driving into the sun is easier on your eyes. It also blocks harmful UV rays, helping protect your skin and preventing your car’s interior from fading, cracking, or wearing out too soon. You’ll notice a more comfortable cabin, especially during those hot Texas summers.

Beyond comfort, window tint adds privacy and a sleek, polished look to any vehicle. It keeps prying eyes away from your belongings while giving your car a clean, custom appearance.

Our team installs every tint with attention to detail, so you get a smooth, bubble-free finish that looks great and performs well. Whether you drive a sedan, SUV, or truck, we’ll help you choose the right option for your needs and style.

Absolutely amazing service! I brought an BMW in with a very difficult stain that nobody else had been able to remove, and they completely took care of it. The car looks incredible and the stain is completely gone! You can really tell they know what they’re doing and take pride in their work. Highly professional, friendly, and detail-oriented. I’m extremely happy with the results and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for high-quality car detailing. 5 stars all the way! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I just had the pleasure of getting my windows tinted at APS and their team was just phenomenal!! Scheduling was super easy, they were straight forward and honest, and the owner is a great quality guy, but most importantly my windows look amazing and the quality of the install was great! I was looking for a ceramic tint to keep my son from over heating in the back seat, and I have noticed an immediate improvement from the past week after switching to their ceramic tint! I highly recommend, especially in this Texas heat!!!

The team at APS did amazing job on my cyber truck tint job! Once I pick out a wrap, I plan on using them to do it. I’m also using them to do my f450 our F350 My wife had a small blemish on her new AT4 ultimate and they took care of it right away! The whole team is great. The owner is super genuine and just a very nice person. I would highly recommend this group to take care of any of your window tinting or PPF needs. Thank you, APS.
