The three shops, briefly
Skylab Ceramic Details carries the most history here at 4.9 stars across 76 reviews, and it handles oxidation along with ceramic, wash and wax. Veras Auto Detail sits at 5.0 with 4 reviews and lists roof work, which matters on a rig with a dirty cap and a streaked roof. Veras Detailing Academy is the mobile one of the group, 5.0 on 3 reviews, so it can come to your driveway or storage lot. Small review counts mean small sample sizes. Read the reviews anyway, and ask each shop for photos of an RV they coated, not a sedan.
Prep is the whole job
A ceramic coat locks in whatever is under it. If your front cap is chalky and faded, that comes off first, and oxidation removal is its own line item. Ask how they decontaminate, whether they clay and polish, and how many hours of correction are in the quote. A shop that quotes coating without mentioning prep is selling you a short-lived shine. Also ask about the roof: only one of the three local shops lists roof work, so if yours needs cleaning, say so up front and confirm it is included or priced separately.
Questions worth asking
Get the price per foot rather than a flat number, since a 24 foot trailer and a 40 foot diesel pusher are not the same job. Ask whether they bring their own water and power, especially for the mobile option, and where the runoff goes. Ask what coating brand they use, how many coats, and what the cure time is before you can drive or wash it. Then ask what upkeep looks like: a coated rig still wants a gentle wash and no harsh soaps. And check your storage or HOA rules on washing at home before you plan a mobile visit there.

Questions people ask
How many ceramic coating shops are in Modesto?
Three shops in Modesto list ceramic coating, and all three show a 5.0 average rating. Six more are nearby if you are willing to drive. One of the three is mobile and one lists roof cleaning, so match the shop to what your rig actually needs.
How much does RV ceramic coating cost here?
Prices are not listed, so ask each shop for a quote per foot of RV length. Length, paint condition and how much oxidation removal is needed all move the number. Get the prep steps itemized so you can compare quotes fairly.
Does a ceramic coat stop oxidation?
No. It protects paint that is already clean and corrected. Faded, chalky fiberglass needs oxidation removal and polishing before any coating goes on, or the coating seals in the dullness. Skylab Ceramic Details lists oxidation work, so start that conversation there.
Can a mobile detailer coat my RV at home?
Veras Detailing Academy is the mobile option among the three Modesto shops. Confirm they bring their own water and power, and check HOA or storage lot rules on washing and coating on site before you book. Coating work takes time, so ask how long they need.
