Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about ceramic coating, auto detailing, paint protection, and vehicle care from Eagle Star Detail's experts.
What is ceramic coating and how does it protect my vehicle?
Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to your vehicle's paint that creates a protective layer. It provides UV protection, reduces oxidation, repels water and contaminants, and makes your vehicle easier to maintain. Our ceramic coatings are USA-manufactured with warranty coverage reported to Carfax.
How long does a ceramic coating last?
Professional ceramic coatings can last 2-5 years depending on maintenance and environmental conditions. We use premium-grade coatings designed for durability. With proper care and regular maintenance, you'll maximize the lifespan of your coating.
What's the difference between ceramic coating and wax?
Ceramic coating provides longer-lasting protection (2-5 years vs. 3-6 months), superior paint adhesion, better UV protection, and greater water beading. While wax is more affordable, ceramic coating is a more comprehensive long-term protection solution for serious car enthusiasts.
Do you offer mobile detailing services?
Yes! We provide mobile detailing services throughout Boise and surrounding areas including Eagle, Meridian, Garden City, and Middleton. We bring professional-grade equipment and products directly to your home or business for convenience.
What types of vehicles do you service?

How often should I have my vehicle detailed?
We recommend detailing every 6-12 months depending on your vehicle's condition and environment. RVs and boats may need more frequent detailing due to exposure. Regular detailing, combined with ceramic coating protection, maximizes your vehicle's longevity and appearance.
What is paint correction and when do I need it?
Paint correction removes swirl marks, scratches, and oxidation to restore your paint's clarity and shine. We recommend it before applying ceramic coating for optimal results, or whenever your vehicle shows signs of paint imperfection.
Do your ceramic coatings come with a warranty?
Yes! All our ceramic coating services include warranty coverage reported to Carfax. We stand behind our work with professional-grade coatings and expert installation to ensure your vehicle receives the highest level of protection.
