How Do We Apply Our Revivify Self Healing Coating?

Surface Prep is Everything

Before any coating touches the paint, we spend serious time on prep. That means a full decontamination wash — removing tar, iron particles, and anything else clinging to the clear coat. Once that’s complete, we move on to clay barring the surface to ensure a glass-smooth finish.

After drying, we inspect the paint under proper lighting. Any imperfections, swirls, or marring need to be corrected through a multi-stage paint correction process. Coatings like Revivify are semi-permanent — so anything underneath gets sealed in if it's not dealt with properly.

Panel by Panel Precision

When it’s time to apply Revivify, we go one panel at a time. We apply a thin, even layer using a dedicated applicator, ensuring full coverage without overlap or streaking. Timing is key here — the coating needs a short flash time before it’s leveled and buffed with a premium microfiber towel.

Each section is carefully inspected before moving on. We’re not rushing this — we’re aiming for perfection.

Self-Healing Activation

What sets Revivify apart is its heat-activated self-healing properties. That means minor swirl marks and surface-level scratches can actually disappear with heat exposure — like sunlight or warm water.

After the full car is coated, we give it time to cure and settle. At this stage, it’s already glossy and slick, but the protection will continue to harden over the next 24–48 hours. No water contact during this time is crucial to allow proper bonding.

Final Inspection & Client Handoff

Once cured, we do a final inspection in multiple lighting conditions. The goal? A deep, reflective finish with zero high spots or haze. We walk clients through the care instructions and maintenance schedule to help them get the most out of the coating.

The result on the Lotus Emira? Showroom gloss, self-healing protection, and a layer of defense that’ll last years — not months.

Conclusion

Applying Revivify isn’t just about slapping on a product — it’s a process of precision, patience, and proven technique. From the prep work to the final inspection, every step plays a role in delivering the premium results this coating promises.

If you're considering a self-healing solution for your vehicle, make sure the installer knows their craft. Because even the best coating in the world won’t perform if it’s applied without care.
