9-Year Ceramic Coating in Oregon City & Surrounding Portland Metro
What we see in Portland garages
Full mobile service across Oregon City - McLoughlin Boulevard storefronts, hillside driveways, and quiet residential streets all on the same routes.
How we approach it
Our flagship coating. Maximum hardness, maximum gloss, maximum longevity. A 9-year professional ceramic coating that, frankly, will outlast most people's interest in their current car. Built for show cars, garage queens, exotics, restored classics, and forever-cars where the goal is paint that looks pristine for the next decade.
What to expect on the day
This tier uses the highest-solids ceramic chemistry we offer - a hard, glassy cure that resists swirls, etching from water spots, bird droppings, and even mild brake dust transfer. Combined with proper prep (often a 2 or 3-stage paint correction first), the result is a finish that genuinely looks better than the day the car left the factory.
Where Tidy is different
Multi-day project. We assess paint, do full correction, decontaminate, apply two layers of coating with a topper, then cure for 24+ hours in a controlled environment. Mobile pickup and drop-off available throughout the Portland metro for vehicles where you can't bring them to us.
What's included
Every job comes with the same checklist. No surprises.
- Multi-stage paint correction (1, 2 or 3-stage as needed)
- Full decontamination and IPA wipe
- 9-year flagship ceramic coating - two layers + topper
- Wheel face and barrel coating
- Glass coat (highly recommended, included on this tier)
- Plastic trim, chrome and exhaust tip coating
- Controlled-environment cure (24–48 hours)
- Annual maintenance washes included for life of coating
- Coating registered with manufacturer for full warranty
How it works
Walk and quote
Detailed paint inspection under inspection lighting. Defects mapped, correction stages agreed, total scope locked in.
Correct paint
Whatever stage of correction the paint needs to reach a swirl-free, defect-minimized state - typically 1-3 days.
Decontaminate and prep
Final wash, IPA wipe, panel-wipe to leave perfectly clean paint for coating.
Coat in layers
Two layers of base coating with proper flash time between, then topper for slickness and gloss.
Long cure
24–48 hours in controlled environment. No driving, no exposure during cure.
Why this matters in the Pacific Northwest
The PNW is brutal on paint
Nine years means you're looking at a coating that stays through most or all of your ownership of a flagship vehicle. Resale value of a coated, well-maintained car is dramatically higher than its uncoated counterpart.
Why technique actually matters
PNW weather demands the toughest available coatings. Year-round rain, road grit, and intense low-angle summer sun all wear paint over time - the 9-year is built specifically to outlast that.
City vs. backroad realities
Show, concours, and high-end private collections in the area routinely use this tier. We work on everything from air-cooled 911s to modern hypercars at this level.
Resale & long-term value
Oregon City's mix of older homes with long driveways and modern subdivisions means we see everything from classics that need careful single-stage paint work to modern vehicles ready for ceramic.
What affects the price
Every property is different. These are the things we look at when we quote.
- Vehicle size, color, and paint condition
- Number of correction stages required
- Specialty trim, chrome, satin/matte paint, PPF
- Whether stored at our partner facility for the full project or done at owner's location
