Ideal when you plan to keep the vehicle longer and want extended Ceramic Coating durability, gloss retention, UV support, and easier maintenance. Gtechniq Accredited, family owned and operated — Paint Correction is included on this package before the Ceramic Coating ever touches the panel. No shortcuts on prep, no rushed application.
Verified Google reviews from ST6 customers — the same trust that backs every service, including ceramic coating.
★★★★★They explained why Paint Correction mattered before Ceramic Coating on my black Ford Raptor. No pressure, just showed me what was in the paint under the light.
★★★★★Water beading after the Ceramic Coating was exactly what I wanted. Washing is faster and my BMW M5 does not hold contaminants like it used to.
★★★★★ST6 caught water spots on my Grand Cherokee that I had stopped noticing. They did the Paint Correction first and the Ceramic Coating finish came out deep and clean.
★★★★★Scheduled the Platinum Exterior on my Porsche 911 GT4 before Ceramic Coating. They explained what Paint Correction was needed before starting and did not just guess.
★★★★★The quote made sense, the crew showed up with the right setup, and my F-150 came back cleaner than expected.
★★★★★They did not oversell the service. They explained what the Raptor needed and what could wait.
Every package includes wash, decontamination, Paint Correction, panel prep, and Ceramic Coating application before the vehicle leaves.
5-Year Ceramic Coating steps up to Gtechniq's Crystal Serum Light system, built for owners who plan to keep the vehicle several years and want gloss retention well beyond a standard 3-year coating's lifespan — the package we recommend for a long-term car, not a lease. Like every ceramic package, the coating only goes on after full decontamination and correction.
Ideal when you plan to keep the vehicle longer and want extended Ceramic Coating durability, gloss retention, UV support, and easier maintenance.
Gtechniq's extended-durability system, engineered for stronger UV resistance and longer-lasting gloss than the standard 3-year coating.
Bonded contamination is stripped from every panel before correction, ensuring the coating goes on genuinely clean paint.
All panels are machine-polished to remove swirls and oxidation — the whole vehicle is corrected, not just the visible high spots.
Windshield glass coating is bundled in at no extra charge, improving visibility in rain and making bug and road grime easier to remove.
Crystal Serum Light is a stronger, more durable Gtechniq system than the EXO v5 used in the 3-Year package, built to hold gloss and hydrophobic performance for longer with less maintenance.
G1 ClearVision makes rain bead and roll off the windshield instead of smearing, improving visibility in wet weather and making bugs and grime easier to wipe away.
If you plan to keep the vehicle 5 or more years, the extended durability and gloss retention typically pay off. For shorter ownership windows, 3-Year offers the same core protection at a lower price.
Starting prices shown are for a standard sedan. Larger vehicles are quoted after inspection.
Real work from the Cooper Avenue studio — not stock photography. Every vehicle goes through the same decontamination and correction process before coating ever touches the panel.

ST6 Technician At WorkAccreditation is earned through Gtechniq's own training program. The warranty is registered directly with Gtechniq, not a promise we made up ourselves.
Gtechniq Accreditation isn't a certificate you can buy off a shelf. It requires a minimum of 2 years running a detailing business, then hands-on training directly with Gtechniq covering coating preparation, correction discipline, and proper installation of Crystal Serum Ultra and EXO v5. Accreditation also comes with protected territory, which is why ST6 is an accredited installer serving Colorado Springs and El Paso County.
Crystal Serum Ultra carries a genuine 9-year guarantee, registered directly with Gtechniq within 30 days of application — not just a service promise from ST6. It covers repair or retreatment at no cost if the finish is damaged by tree sap, bug splatter, bird or bat droppings, or UV exposure. Every package carries a manufacturer-backed guarantee for its term, the same way the 9-Year package does.
Clear answers on how the process works, what's included, and what the coating can and can't do.
The 5-Year uses Crystal Serum Light instead of EXO v5, rated for longer durability, and includes G1 ClearVision Smart Glass at no extra cost — a hydrophobic windshield coating that is not included on the 3-Year tier.
