ADVANCED MARINE CERAMIC APPLICATION TRAINING
ADVANCED MARINE CERAMIC APPLICATION TRAINING
Learn how to properly prep, install, inspect, and sell marine ceramic coating services with a professional process.
Advanced Marine Ceramic Application Training is an in-person hands-on course built for marine detailers, shop owners, technicians, and auto detailers moving into marine coating work. This training focuses on the real-world process behind ceramic application on boats, including surface inspection, prep standards, polishing requirements, wipe-down procedure, coating technique, high spot prevention, curing, maintenance education, and client expectation management.
Ceramic coating is not just “wipe on, wipe off.” If the prep is wrong, the coating fails. If the application is rushed, high spots show. If the client is not educated properly, maintenance problems become your problem.
This course is built to help you install marine ceramic coatings with more confidence, consistency, and professionalism.
