Vilamoura cars spend extended hours under the Algarve sun — parked at the marina, at the casino, at the golf clubs. UV oxidation is cumulative and slow. A properly applied ceramic coating reduces that rate significantly and keeps paint looking sharp without constant polishing.
The Vilamoura lifestyle typically means the car is parked outdoors for longer periods than in an urban context. Cars at the marina may sit for days; villa cars left during travel may sit for weeks. Under Algarve UV — over 300 sunny days per year and intense summer irradiance — unprotected clear coat oxidises at a rate that becomes visible within two or three seasons.
The result is familiar: a car that looks dull, feels rough to the touch, and needs an expensive paint correction rather than just a wash. Ceramic coating, applied to properly prepared paint, creates a UV-resistant hydrophobic surface that significantly slows this degradation cycle.
“A Vilamoura car left at the marina for a week picks up more than most owners think — brake dust on the wheels, salt film on the glass. That's why I still recommend the glass and wheel ceramic in the top package for anyone parking dockside.”
Bodywork coated after gauge-guided correction. Protection up to 2 years.
The package most owners pick — deeper correction stage before coating.
Full treatment including glass and wheels. Long-life up to 8 years: +€500–600.
Final scope and price are confirmed at inspection — these are honest public anchors, not teaser rates.
Our ceramic packages start at €1,000 for an exterior polish and entry-level ceramic on cars in good condition. The €1,500 package — our most popular — adds interior cleaning, a more durable ceramic product, and air conditioning recharge on request. The €2,000 package extends ceramic protection to the glass and wheels.
For cars parked regularly in the Vilamoura marina environment, the glass ceramic in the top package is worth noting: glass coated with ceramic beads water sharply and visually clears faster, which matters in the autumn rain season after the dry summer. Wheel ceramic prevents the brake dust and salt residue that stains alloys in coastal parking conditions.
A ceramic coating applied over scratched, oxidised or poorly polished paint locks those conditions into the surface permanently. We assess the paint before every job and confirm what it needs. If correction is required first, we say so and price it separately — not hidden into the ceramic package without telling you.
Yes — it creates a UV-resistant hydrophobic surface that significantly slows the oxidation cycle salt air accelerates, keeping paint from developing the dull, rough finish that extended outdoor parking near the marina causes.

Vilamoura is inside the free 15 km collection radius of our Loulé studio, under ten minutes from the marina — we can collect, coat and return the car without you driving it.
Oleg & the team did a fantastic job restoring my 1995 Jeep Wrangler — on budget, on time and exactly as promised, with regular photos and updates throughout. Excellent job. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend and use again. 5*
A huge thank you to you and your team! My car has never looked so clean! Just Cars did an amazing job making my car look brand new. It was full of sand, dirt, food — everything the kids could possibly put in it, and years since its last proper detail. Just Cars was amazing. A huge thank you!!
My wife and I have been using Just Cars for a while now and always find the service fantastic — very professional and helpful. They've done numerous things for us, from valet to fitting stereos and mechanical work. Would highly recommend them.
I've had a great experience with JustCars — definitely a place I'll be coming back to! A professional team with friendly, down-to-earth people who clearly care about the quality of their work. Keep it up, guys — wishing you all the success!
The guys did work on the Ferrari and they did a great job — thank you!
Oleg is great. I bought a used BMW X5 from a private seller and the aluminium centre console had a few scratches. Oleg made it look brand new with a flawless wrap. Highly recommended.
So glad I found Just Cars. Oleg and his team sorted a small issue with my car's finish within 24 hours — and they're specialists in every kind of car maintenance. Highly recommended.
We had a tricky problem — removing dried-out vinyl lettering from our van that even the signage company couldn't manage. Alek quickly came up with a solution and the work was high-quality and super fast. Recommended for excellent professionalism.
When you love your car, go to Just Cars!!! What they do is truly amazing. When you collect your car it's better than picking it up from the Porsche dealership — and far better protected. Steven
