“The service provided far exceeded my expectations from the beginning to end. I took my Kia Telluride to Matt for a ceramic coating and was extremely happy with the results. What I was most impressed with is the professionalism. Matt took the time to explain the details of the ceramic process and differences in the packages. He is very honest in his assessment of the vehicles paint condition and did not try to up sale me on the packages. He kept me updated on each phase of the process with pictures along the way. Once I picked up my vehicle he did a good job of explaining and demonstrating how to care for a ceramic coated vehicle. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting their car/truck ceramic coated or detailed.”

Our Killeen-area client came to Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings looking for a ceramic coating and some paint correction (polishing, buffing, paint enhancement) on a lightly swirled metallic black Dodge RAM 1500. If you see all of our YouTube Shorts on the subject as well as our main video, you’ll see we made a huge difference!

When we polish a black vehicle with swirls, we often see a massive change in paint color (from a faded black or gray, to a gloss black), which isn’t always readily apparent until you start comparing it to glossy, recently-polished paint.

We utilized SB3 Coatings Alpha five year ceramic coating, SB3 Vortex two year wheel ceramic coating, SB3 Optic one year windshield/glass ceramic coating, and we ceramic coated the plastic wheel wells and suspension parts with SB3 Coatings Alpha, as well.

The plastic pieces on Dodge RAMs tend to fade over time, and so now we know that this vehicle will be protected against that issue for years to come!

2011 Cadillac CTS-V Carbon Fiber Hood Polish & Ceramic Coating Near Temple, TX

By Matthew Jones • March 7, 2026

2011 Cadillac CTS-V Carbon Fiber Hood Polish & Ceramic Coating Near Temple, TX When a 2011 Cadillac CTS-V rolled into our shop at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings, located near Temple, TX , it already had something most cars never get: serious horsepower upgrades and a cam that made the whole building rumble when it fired up. But despite all the performance under the hood, the carbon fiber hood told a different story. It had just been freshly painted. Before that, it had been wrapped in blue vinyl, and once the vinyl came off, the black paint underneath showed heavy swirl marks and polishing haze . Carbon fiber panels—especially glossy ones—can look incredible… but they are brutally honest. Every imperfection shows. This job quickly turned into a great example of why proper paint correction and polishing matter before installing a ceramic coating.
