Alkaline Strip Wash & Wheel Decontamination
Removes old waxes, traffic film and silicone dressings so the ceramic coating can bond directly to bare clear coat.
Part of our Mobile Auto Body Repair in Houston, TX network.

📍 Houston, TXA ceramic coating adds a hard, slick layer over prepared paint. In Houston it helps with UV, bug acids, tree pollen and rain spotting, and makes washing easier. It does not stop dents, rock chips or hail, so set expectations accordingly.
Proper prep is the biggest part of a coating job, because the coating locks in whatever is on the paint. Paint correction usually comes first.
In practice, Houston owners tend to book a coating in the cooler months when mornings are dry enough to cure well, or when a car is new and still has clean paint. Cars parked under live oaks or pines get the most out of it, since sap, pollen and bird droppings release more easily. Coastal humidity does not stop a coating from working, but we still prefer a dry garage or shaded driveway for the application and the first day of curing.
Every car ceramic coating is installed on site with strict surface preparation, flash-time monitoring and curing verification.
Removes old waxes, traffic film and silicone dressings so the ceramic coating can bond directly to bare clear coat.
Dissolves embedded metallic brake dust and road tar specks from horizontal and lower body panels.
Lifts stubborn bonded tree sap mist and industrial fallout until every painted surface feels smooth as glass.
Light refining polish (or full machine paint correction if booked) followed by an alcohol panel wipe to strip all polishing oils.
We work inside your residential garage, under a covered carport, or beneath our portable UV canopy to keep panels cool and dust-free.
Applied section-by-section with suede applicators, timed for proper rainbow flash (1–3 minutes), and leveled streak-free under LED inspection lights.
The coating cures tack-free within 2–4 hours on site; we apply a sacrificial hydrophobic topper to protect against moisture during the 12–24 hour dry cure.
Excellent mobile car repair, dent was fixed and looks good as new. Glad I called 😀
Excellent service, My dent looked new and the painting top notch. After I called them for my car detailing and I will use them again and again.
I had an excellent experience with their mobile car repair service fast, convenient, and very professional. The team provided great customer service and kept me informed throughout the process. I also tried their mobile car detailing, and my car looked amazing. Highly recommend for anyone needing reliable and excellent service!
Gabriel was in time, did a great job and picked up after himself so that it was as he found it. The photos do not do it justice, the scratches are clear in the first, but the 2nd looks like a picture of my yard, that is reflecting off the now perfect looking paint.
I had very good experience working with Car Doctors on fixing my car. The sign up process was simple. I got a quote and technician assigned for the very next day. Gabriel was very professional in carrying out the job. He arrived on time and completed the work by end of the day to my satisfaction. If I had approached conventional body shops for this work it would have taken me days or weeks to get my car back. And the price was not bad at all, in fact less than what body shops charge. I encourage you to try My Car Doctor for your needs.
Alex was great, very polite and efficient. Team answered right away, was very professional and accommodating!

Our mobile technicians travel to homes, townhomes and offices across all Houston neighborhoods and ZIP codes:
Yes, if you have a garage, carport or reliably shaded spot. The coating needs a dry, protected surface while it flashes and starts to cure, so we confirm the setup before booking.
Plan on most of a day for prep and application. After that, keep the car dry and out of the rain for 24 hours while the coating tacks and cures.
A coating locks in whatever the paint looks like underneath, including swirls. If the paint has visible defects, we recommend paint correction in Houston first.
Use a pH-neutral shampoo and a clean microfiber wash mitt. We walk you through aftercare when we hand the car back.
No. It protects the surface from chemical and environmental damage, not impacts.
Usually yes, because the coating locks in the finish underneath.
