Stone strikes
Heavy truck traffic throws debris, and at interstate speed a small stone hits hard. By the time you notice a chip it has already gone through the clear layer into the color.
Conway commuters
A daily interstate commute is a film problem
Conway is the furthest town we cover, and the one with the clearest answer. An interstate run each way is the highest rock-chip exposure in our service area, and no amount of washing or coating does anything about it.

Being straight about the distance
Do not make the drive for a wash.
We are not going to pretend Conway is convenient. It is a real drive down the interstate and then east of downtown. For a maintenance wash that is a bad trade and you should find someone closer.
Film and coating are a different calculation. Those are jobs you do once and live with for years, so the drive is one afternoon against a decade of protection. That interstate is also where the chips come from, and film is the only thing that stops one.
What interstate miles do to a front end
Three things that compound over time.
Bugs on the front end
Bug splatter is acidic and a hot bumper bakes it on. On a daily interstate car that is a constant assault on the one panel you cannot easily protect any other way.
Sun, all of it
A commute means the vehicle is outside at both ends of the day and often parked outside in between. UV is slow, cumulative and it does not stop.
What Conway books
Film first. Coating second. Both once.
These two are worth the drive. If you want a maintenance wash schedule, find someone in Conway and we will not be offended.
Paint Protection Film
Highway rock chips are the fastest way to ruin a new finish. PPF is a virtually invisible shield over your hood, bumper and mirrors.
Ceramic Coating
Wax washes off and your paint is bare again in a few months. A ceramic coating bonds to your paint for years of gloss, easier washing and water that beads off.
A note on parts: we install products from our own qualified vendors and do not fit customer supplied parts. We warranty the product and the install together.
Conway
Local questions.
Conway is a bit of a drive. Is it worth the trip?
For a wash, no, and we will say so. For film or a coating it is a once-every-few-years trip for something that lasts years, and the Conway commute is exactly the mileage profile that makes film worth having.
Do you pick up in Conway?
Conway sits outside the towns on our standing pickup route, so ask rather than assume. For multi-day film and coating work we can sometimes make arrangements, and we would rather tell you honestly up front.
What should a Conway commuter do first?
Film on the front end, before anything else. A daily interstate commute is the highest chip-risk profile in our service area, and film is the only preventative that works. A coating over the rest is the sensible second step.
