Episode 4: Obsessed Ownership: Ceramic Coating

Written By Brent Mathieson

Ceramic coating isn’t about shine — it’s about protecting the work.

In this episode of Obsessed Ownership, the 2012 Volvo XC70 goes through a proper 2-step paint correction before any ceramic coating is applied. This is the part of the process that defines the final result — removing defects, refining the finish, and setting the stage for long-term protection.

This isn’t a rush job or a product showcase. It’s a deliberate, obsessed approach that respects the paint and the effort already invested.

We cover:

  • Why a 2-step correction is necessary before coating

  • Cutting vs refining and how each step contributes

  • Applying ceramic coating to lock in the results
