Luxury Car Detailing was called to detail a stunning matte black Aston Martin at a coastal property in Narragansett, Rhode Island. The client, an auto enthusiast and local resident, requested two major services: a ceramic coating application and a full interior detail. This vehicle wasn’t just a luxury daily driver — it was a precision-built performance car with delicate surfaces that required advanced care and the right product knowledge. Our mobile detailing team came fully equipped to perform the job on-site with zero compromise in quality.
The Aston Martin was in excellent condition overall but needed protection. Being parked frequently near Narragansett’s oceanfront meant the vehicle was exposed to salt air, moisture, UV rays, and sand — all of which accelerate wear and corrosion. The matte black paint, while visually striking, is extremely sensitive and can’t be corrected like standard clear coats.
Inside, the tan leather upholstery had minor buildup from use, with visible dust and oils on the seating surfaces, along with some light grime in the cupholders, dash trim, and door panels.
We started with a safe, matte-specific hand wash to ensure no glossing or uneven finish. Then we performed a full decontamination to remove embedded contaminants:
Once the paint was prepped, we applied a matte-safe ceramic coating. This coating offered:
Ceramic coatings for matte paint are more about preservation than enhancement — and our product did just that, adding protection without artificial shine.
After completing the exterior, we turned our attention to the interior, focusing on a deep clean and soft-surface restoration.
Interior steps included:
Extra care was taken with the lighter interior trim to avoid staining or slick finishes. Every button, edge, and air vent was cleaned with soft tools and brushes.
The transformation was immediate. The client was especially impressed by the rich, even appearance of the matte coating and how clean the interior felt without any heavy scent or oily residue. Every panel, vent, and seam had been addressed. The paint looked completely refreshed, yet still retained the factory satin look — exactly what a proper ceramic job on a matte finish should deliver.
Vehicles located in Rhode Island’s coastal towns face unique environmental stressors. Ocean air contributes to premature oxidation and rust, while year-round road salt can compromise clear coat and paint integrity. Add sand from beach trips and humidity, and it becomes clear why frequent protection and interior care is essential.
Ceramic coatings add a permanent layer of defense, but they only perform well when applied to properly prepped paint. Paired with full interior detailing, it not only protects your investment but drastically improves comfort and presentation.
