Instllation Instructions

Here are the instructions:


  1. Step one: prepare the surface for coating, either by conducting a full auto detail, iron and fallout remover, any wheel polishing as required, and panel prep spray, or, at a minimum, wash/dry/panel prep spray (we recommend using SB3 Coatings pH Neutral Soap in a foam cannon & SB3 Decon).
  2. Step two: load the applicator (we use Autofiber Saver applicators and Quadrant Wipe towels for leveling) with a few drops, working in the same fashion on each wheel, for the same amount of time. Do not be concerned about the direction of application, or cross-hatching the application of the ceramic coating – just ensure that you have coverage on all areas.
  3. Step three: wait approximately one minute to level the product, adjusting for humidity/heat in your conditions. Watching for a rainbow in worse conditions is a good indication of the ceramic coating being ready to be leveled. Use the one minute window or the rainbow, whichever comes first, again adjusted for your situation.


Tip: if you get a high spot that you notice after a couple panels that does not seem to wipe off, you can attempt to put the ceramic coating back on top of that spot, wait, and level. If it is close enough to the original application, it should allow you to repeat the process successfully. You can also use a little bit of SB3 Coatings Flyover (six-month ceramic coating), which is a water-based product that contains silica.

Note:

SB3 Coatings (sb3coating.com) are great coatings, and are similar to other offerings we have had in the past. You may be more familiar with other brands’ offerings, so here is a quick reference to help you understand our transition.


 – The SB3 Coatings Solo is similar to Ceramic Pro Sport (although SB3 Solo has a one-year warranty whereas Ceramic Pro Sport has a six-month warranty)


– Their SB3 Coatings Omega is similar to Ceramic Pro Bronze (Ceramic Pro Top Coat) two year coating


– The SB3 Coatings Thirty3 is a three-year ceramic coating, which is a warranty period we have not had in the past.


– Their SB3 Coatings Omega is a Two-year coating, similar to the Ceramic Pro Silver (Two-year) package, which uses Ceramic Pro 9H (one layer) and Ceramic Pro Top Coat (one layer). SB3 Coatings Omega utilizes a single coating system which helps us get your vehicle back to you faster without sacrificing quality.


– The SB3 Coatings Trinity is a seven-year coating, which we did not offer previously with Ceramic Pro.


– Their SB3 Coatings Vortex is a two-year ceramic coating similar to Ceramic Pro Wheel & Caliper or Ceramic Pro 9H (when used on wheels).


– The SB3 Coatings Optic is a one-year ceramic coating similar to Ceramic Pro Glass, and is used on your windshield/glass surfaces.


We have access to many brands of ceramic coatings, and we always choose what is best for the client in their particular situation.

April 16th - 30th Paint Protection Film, Window Tint, Hail Repair Projects in Killeen TX
By Matthew Jones May 18, 2025
As we moved through the second half of April 2025, it became clear that hail damage repair, paint protection film (PPF), and window tint were the major drivers of business at Harker Heights Ceramic Coatings. The hail season in Central Texas has refused to take a break, and neither have we. It’s hard to believe that we’re still repairing vehicles damaged in the Mother’s Day 2024 hailstorm, but that’s the nature of hail season in Texas—there’s never really an “off” season. Even with the more modest hailstorms that struck the Killeen and Harker Heights areas in late April and early May 2025, the damage still warranted insurance claims for many vehicle owners. (See our guide on hail damage insurance supplements). Within just a few days of the latest storms, our waiting list for hail damage repair services grew to over 30 cars. Why? Because our clients are car lovers—people who care about their vehicles and don’t want to live with dings, dents, or scratches caused by unpredictable Texas weather.
