Default Ceramic Coating

A detailer quoted a cost of $800 to buff, polish and ceramic coat for $800. I find online information that ceramic coating is in the several thousands of $$$. Any opinions will be appreciated.

That's more than I'm willing to pay but that's up to you. You can do it yourself for a lot less. there might be someting on YouTube about that.

An $800 quote for buffing, polishing, and ceramic coating is on the low end. High-quality professional ceramic coatings can cost several thousand dollars, especially with full paint correction. At $800, they are likely using a lower-tier coating or a simpler process. Make sure to ask what brand of coating they use, how many layers are applied, and whether the paint correction is thorough. Check reviews or before-and-after photos of their work to ensure the results meet your expectations.
