Why owners in Oakville choose it.
Protection that holds up
ICON Rocklear sits between a ceramic coating and paint protection film, and it takes the best of both. It goes on thick, it bonds permanently, and when life happens it can be repaired. A damaged panel gets corrected or re-coated on the spot, with no stripping the car back and no starting over. Our I.C.E. technology, Interlocking Coating Enforcement, is what makes that possible.
One inspection, not an annual bill
Most ceramic coatings sold with warranty coverage want an annual inspection back from you every year, and skipping it ends the coverage. What you get for that money is a decontamination wash and a spray-on booster, a sacrificial layer on top of a sacrificial layer.
ICON Rocklear works differently. Your coating needs one inspection within 18 months of the install to keep the warranty active. After that there are no yearly re-coats to buy. You drive it.
Scratches can be repaired
Most scratches caused by life cut straight through a ceramic coating. Paint protection film is thick, but a serious scratch damages the film beyond repair. With ICON Rocklear, serious scratches from road debris or vandalism can be repaired, and our technicians can often do it on site.
Minor swirl marks from washing usually come out with a one-step paint correction.
Where the money goes
Full-body paint protection film on a standard coupe or sedan often runs past $6,000. A ten-year ceramic coating can still cost more than $2,000 and it is a thin sacrificial layer.
ICON Rocklear sits between them. Protection that stands up to Ontario roads season after season, a coating that can be repaired instead of removed, and one application instead of a yearly bill.
Wraps, film and decals go on top
ICON Rocklear takes vinyl wrap, paint protection film and decals over the top. Film installed over ICON Rocklear picks up the brilliance underneath, and the coating keeps acting as a barrier for your paint if that film is ever removed. It can also be painted over, so it is body shop safe.
