What is Covered

This warranty covers your vehicle's painted surfaces that have been treated with MACH-10 Paint Protection by an authorized MACH-10 installer. When properly applied and maintained, your vehicle's paint finish will be protected against:

1. Oxidation

2. Loss of gloss

3. UV Damage

4. Acid rain

5. Paint chalking

6. Loss of hydrophobic properties

During annual inspections, the coating's condition, gloss, and hydrophobic properties will be measured as an indicator of coating condition and performance.

How Long Coverage Lasts

Coverage terms are up to Lifetime, when annual service requirements are met. Coverage terminates permanently if annual service requirements are not met.

Coverage Limitations

1. Warranty coverage is limited to the cost of the original ceramic coating application service, excluding any add-ons related to interiors or non-painted exterior services.

2. This limitation applies to all warranty claims, including reapplication after accident repairs

What MACH-10 Will Do

If any treated paint is shown to be adversely affected from exposure to the covered conditions through normal use, as evidenced by a visible loss of paint gloss, MACH-10, regional distributor and/or its authorized installers will attempt to remedy such conditions through reapplication of MACH-10 ceramic coating.

Paint Correction and Pre-Installation Process

Prior to coating installation, we perform a standard one-step polish to enhance gloss and remove minor scratches or swirls. This process typically removes approximately 70% of surface imperfections. For vehicles with more severe paint conditions or for customers desiring higher correction levels, we offer an optional upgrade to a two-step polish that removes approximately 90% of scratches and swirls. A one-step polish at a minimum is required to initiate warranty coverage.

Annual Inspection Requirements

1. Annual Inspections must be performed by an authorized applicator within 30 days before or after the anniversary date of the last service.

2. Annual inspections must be recorded within 30 days.

3. An annual inspection fee will be charged, which includes:

- Interior and exterior service

- Exterior Wash

- Decontamination

- Topcoat application if needed

- Inspection

4. All fees are subject to change and will be determined by the authorized applicator at the time of service.

Evidence of Improper Maintenance

MACH-10 and its authorized installers have sole discretion in determining if a coating has been improperly maintained. Evidence of improper maintenance may include, but is not limited to:
