For Tesla owners and those who value appearance and resale value, XPEL Ceramic Coating has long become an essential protective choice. It can create a high-density nano-protective layer on the car paint surface, significantly enhancing scratch resistance, stain resistance and oxidation resistance. This ensures that the vehicle maintains its luster and texture even after many years of use.

Unlike traditional waxing or sealing, XPEL Ceramic Coating boasts greater durability and chemical stability. A single application can provide continuous protection for several years. For car owners seeking a professional XPEL ceramic coating installer in NYC, choosing an officially certified store is of utmost importance. T-House, as an XPEL authorized installation center in the heart of New York City, offers an original factory-level coating experience for Teslas and luxury vehicles with its professional construction environment and technical capabilities.




XPEL Ceramic Coating
XPEL Ceramic Coating

XPEL is a globally leading brand for car protection. Its flagship product, the FUSION PLUS™ series, employs nano ceramic technology. This coating forms a molecularly dense protective layer on the car paint surface, effectively resisting external pollutants, ultraviolet rays, and oxidation reactions. This ceramic protective layer can fill the micro-pores on the surface at the microscopic level, making the surface smoother. Water, dust, and oil stains are less likely to adhere, thus achieving excellent hydrophobic and anti-contamination properties.


Core Function

  • Ultraviolet Protection: Effectively blocks over 99% of UV radiation, preventing the fading and aging of the paint surface.

  • Chemical Resistance: Resists common corrosive substances such as acid rain, salt, and resins.

  • Enhanced Glossiness: The coating has a high refractive index, which can increase the glossiness of the paint surface by 25–30%.

  • Self-Cleaning Feature: Stains and water droplets slide off easily, reducing the frequency of car washing.

Multi-scenario Applications

XPEL Ceramic Coating is not only suitable for car paint, but can also be applied to various surfaces:

  • Paint finish: Prevent oxidation and enhance brightness;

  • Glass: Improve visibility and prevent water marks;

  • Wheel hub: Prevent brake dust from adhering;

  • Interior leather: Form a stain-resistant layer and delay aging.


Why is it suitable for Tesla and high-end vehicles?

The original water-based paint of Tesla is relatively soft and prone to minor scratches and oxidation. The XPEL FUSION PLUS coating can significantly increase the hardness of the paint surface (up to the 9H grade) without altering the appearance. This enables the vehicle to maintain excellent appearance and protection even during urban commutes and high-speed driving.

XPEL ceramic coating is a high-end protection solution that combines technological sophistication with practicality. It not only extends the lifespan of the paint surface but also ensures that every cleaning and every light reflection presents a perfect texture similar to that of the original factory finish.



Why Choose a Certified XPEL Ceramic Coating Installer?

In the highly competitive automotive detailing market of New York, choosing an XPEL official authorized installation center (Certified Installer) means not only getting a coating application, but also providing a guarantee for the long-term quality and safety of your vehicle.


① Official certification = Technical guarantee

All XPEL certified technicians must undergo strict training and assessment by the headquarters, mastering the standardized process of FUSION PLUS™ coating. From surface preparation, thickness control to zone coating, each step has clear technical standards and quality inspection requirements. This ensures the consistency of the construction effect and enables the vehicle to receive the same maintenance experience during later maintenance.


② Original materials + Official warranty

Only the certified installation centers can directly obtain the original FUSION PLUS film materials and matching tools from the XPEL headquarters. While ordinary beauty salons often use fake films or expired materials due to unclear purchasing channels, which can affect the durability of the film layer. After the construction is done by the XPEL authorized stores, customers can enjoy:

  • 4-year official warranty (including guarantees for fading, loss of luster, and peeling);

  • Global database registration (the warranty remains valid even if the product is moved to other cities);

  • Original factory inspection report (record of thickness and adhesion data).



③ Significant Differences in Environment And Process

XPEL requires that the authorized installation center must have:

  • Cleanroom with constant temperature and dust-free environment (Class 1000);

  • Standard lighting inspection system;

  • Special curing area and humidity control equipment.

These conditions determine the uniformity of the coating film formation and its adhesion. In non-certified stores, if there is excessive dust in the air or if the temperature and humidity do not meet the standards, problems such as "fogging" and "deformation" of the film surface will occur.


④ Long-term Value of Authoritative Certification

According to the 2024 XPEL global network data statistics: Less than 5% of the automotive detailing stores worldwide have obtained the official FUSION PLUS authorization. In the center of New York City, only a few stores including T-House have passed the dual certification of Tesla and XPEL.

This not only demonstrates the manufacturing capabilities, but also guarantees the safety of construction, the authenticity of the products, and the customer service system.

How to Maintain Your XPEL Ceramic Coating for Long-Term Protection

The correct maintenance method is the key to determining whether the XPEL FUSION PLUS™ ceramic coating can maintain its best performance. Even if using the top-quality coating material, neglecting daily maintenance will affect the glossiness and protective properties. The following are the professional maintenance suggestions summarized by the T-House New York Official Authorized Technician Team.


a. Avoid cleaning or waxing within one week after installation

After the coating application is completed, it takes time for the molecular structure to fully solidify. During this period, avoid using high-pressure water guns or strong cleaning agents to clean the vehicle. Also, do not apply wax or use any products containing silicon or oil.

The experts suggest: Wait for at least 7 days after the construction before conducting the first cleaning.


b. Clean only with neutral detergent

Using pH-neutral car wash fluid is crucial for maintaining the stability of the coating layer. Acidic or alkaline cleaning solutions can damage the molecular bond structure of the ceramic layer, resulting in a decrease in hydrophobic properties. It is recommended to use microfiber cloths or flexible sponges to reduce the risk of minor scratches.


c. Regularly use XPEL Ceramic Boost

To maintain the mirror-like shine and anti-fouling properties, it is recommended to use XPEL Ceramic Boost every 2-3 months. This product replenishes the surface-active molecules on the coating layer, enhancing hydrophobicity and anti-fouling capabilities. At the same time, it significantly improves the brightness of the paint surface, ensuring that the vehicle remains in a pristine condition at all times.


d. Conduct professional inspections and maintenance every six months

T-House suggests conducting a professional coating inspection service every six months:

  • Check the adhesion and thickness of the coating layer;

  • Re-clean and perform surface re-polishing treatment;

  • Ensure that the quality assurance records remain valid.

This service can significantly enhance the lifespan and texture performance of the coating, and it is also one of the necessary steps to maintain the official 4-year warranty of XPEL.



FAQ — Ceramic Coating for Tesla & Luxury Cars


Q1: How long does XPEL ceramic coating last?

The effective protection period of XPEL FUSION PLUS™ is approximately 3–4 years, depending on the usage environment and maintenance frequency. Under the climate conditions of New York, if combined with regular maintenance (such as using XPEL Ceramic Boost), the coating lifespan can be extended to more than 4 years.


Q2: Is ceramic coating safe for Tesla paint?

Yes. The original water-based paint of Tesla is quite soft. The ceramic coating not only does not damage the paint surface, but also provides additional protection against ultraviolet rays and chemical corrosion. The XPEL FUSION PLUS has been tested and verified on Tesla vehicles, and it is proven to effectively reduce damage to the paint surface caused by acid rain, water stains and oxidation.


Sure, and it's recommended. XPEL FUSION PLUS can be directly applied to the surface of XPEL PPF to form a "double-layer protective structure" - the outer layer is anti-stain and waterproof, while the inner layer is scratch-resistant and resistant to stone strikes. This combination makes it easier to clean the vehicle body and extends the lifespan of the invisible car coating.


Q4: What’s the difference between wax and ceramic coating?

Polishing is a short-term cosmetic treatment that mainly provides temporary gloss. On the other hand, ceramic coating is a molecular-level chemical bonding that can form a long-lasting protective layer on the paint surface. The effect of polishing lasts for about 1-2 months, while the lifespan of ceramic coating can reach several years. Moreover, the anti-fouling and UV protection effects of XPEL coating are much better than those of traditional wax.


Q5: Does ceramic coating require maintenance?

Yes. Although ceramic coatings have high durability, it is still recommended to perform regular maintenance. Clean with a neutral cleaner, avoid strong acid or alkali detergents, and use XPEL Ceramic Boost regularly. T-House suggests conducting a professional inspection and brightening maintenance at the store every 6 months to maintain optimal shine and protection.
