Our Process To Protect your New or Used Vehicle
The first thing we do is a full foam wash so that the heavy debris dirt and grime come off your vehicle. Then we move into our clay bar treatment which picks up all the micro composites in the paint that you can’t see with your eyes. Next we do what is called an “iron decontamination” wash which takes off all the brake dust, road grime, and any other metal composites off the paint.
Then we will compound and polish your paint to ensure that we remove as many scratches as we can while preparing the surface of your paint to properly bond with our advanced coating. Finally, we install our Icon Rocklear coating to all the paint surfaces of your vehicle. After Icon Rocklear has been applied to the paint we like to let the vehicle sit in our shop overnight. You can expect a turnaround time of 1.5 to 2.5 days depending on the size of the vehicle.
What's the difference between a wax, ceramic coating, and Icon Rocklear?
So, the difference between a wax, a ceramic coating, and Icon Rocklear! A wax just sits on the surface of your clear coat and requires a lot of maintenance and is a short term solution. A Ceramic Coating chemically bonds to the surface creating a semi-permanent sacrificial layer of protection, and requires reapplications, and detailed maintenance. Icon Rocklear however is a permanent bond that permanently eliminates swirling and imperfections, it is a no-maintenance and no reapplication required coating. Additionally Icon Rocklear is the only coating on the market that offers rock chip, and scratch resistance up to 40% which is on par with Paint Protection Film
FAQs about Icon Rocklear
Can I apply Icon Rocklear to my own vehicle?
No, Icon is only applied at licensed facilities that have undergone installation training.

This ensures the quality and longevity of the finish on your car or boat.

Yes, and if you want the ultimate protection, this can always be added to your vehicle afterward.
Can I paint over Icon Rocklear?
Yes, Icon is body shop safe and can be painted over later.
Is Icon Rocklear a ceramic coating?
No. Ceramic coatings were developed in the early 2000s and have pretty much remained the same since. Relying on mostly water beading and easier to cleanse vehicles. Icon Rocklear was originally engineered in 2016 and has been advanced several times with the most recent formulation in 2023. Designed for protection, brilliance, and ease of cleaning.
My car has scratches and other pre-existing damage. Can Icon Rocklear be applied to this?
Yes, and that is the great thing about Icon. We can apply Icon over damaged paint, and it will cover swirls and scratches and help build up an already thin, clear coat. It is the only corrective and protective coating on the market.
My car has oxidation. Can Icon Rocklear be applied to this?
Yes, and that is the great thing about Icon. We can apply Icon Rocklear over damaged paint to help cover oxidation and help build up an already thin, clear coat. It is the only corrective and protective coating on the market.
How strong is this coating?
In tests of tensile strength Icon Rocklear resists heavy damage when compared to any other coating on the market. Its up to 63 Microns of a hard protected surface brings you over 75x the strength when compared to other coatings in the world. Making it the only coating to help with resistance to heavy damage such as real world perils, rock chips, & actual car key scratches.
How thick is an Icon Coating?
Icon Rocklear is the most depth efficient coating on the market today. Certified Icon Rocklear technicians can achieve a 2.5 mil or 63 micron depth in a single application. Or for easy math, 35+ times thicker than a Ceramic or Graphene Coating. This eliminates the need for counterproductive paint correction / grind off of your precious protective clear coat as is necessary with Ceramic and Graphene Coatings. Icon Rocklear only adds protection! Ceramic Coatings are 1-3 microns thick.
After Care
Can I use an automatic car wash to wash my vehicle?
Never use a soft-touch automatic car wash or the foam brush at the DIY car wash, as these can still scratch your vehicle’s coating even when fully cured. Contaminants can be on these brushes from the previous vehicles that were washed there. We always recommend washing the vehicle by hand (mitt & bucket method), but you can use a touchless car wash. Nothing is harder than Icon Rocklear, but you can still scratch it; nothing is scratch-proof!
What do I use to maintain my Icon coating?
That’s the great thing about Icon Rocklear. Just wash with any soap and say goodbye to harsh chemicals, clay bars, etc.
I just had my vehicle coated with Icon Rocklear. How long can it take until I can wash it?
We ask that after 10 days you only wash your vehicle by way of touch less car washes. After 30 days the coating has cured, you may begin to incorporate hand washing. After washing, always dry off the water by using a blower device or a large microfiber towel
