Gtechniq Ceramic Coating in Dubai
Apex Detail Studio is a Gtechniq-accredited ceramic coating studio in Al Quoz, Dubai. A Gtechniq ceramic coating is a liquid coating that bonds to your car’s clear coat and cures into a hard, glossy, water-repellent layer. It gives a deep wet-look shine, makes dust and grime easier to wash off, and helps protect paint from UV, bird droppings and water spots. Gtechniq’s flagship coating, Crystal Serum Ultra, is rated for up to 9 years of protection when applied by an accredited installer and maintained correctly.

What does a Gtechniq coating do for your car?
- Deep, wet-look gloss that lasts far longer than wax.
- Hydrophobic surface: water beads and rolls off, taking dust with it.
- Easier washing: sand and grime release with less rubbing, which means fewer swirls.
- UV and chemical resistance to slow fading and etching.
- Long life: years of protection rather than weeks.
A ceramic coating does not stop stone chips. For impact protection, combine it with PPF. See PPF vs ceramic coating.
