Built for ceramic coating workflows
Everything Arkansas ceramic coating shops actually need.
Not a generic auto-shop tool with a ceramic mode — purpose-built for the way ceramic coating shops work.
Tier-based pricing
1yr / 3yr / 5yr / 10yr / lifetime — tier matrix with included services + recoat schedule auto-applied to the quote.
Digital prep checklist
Decon → clay → paint correction → IPA wipe → coat. Checklist signed off step-by-step. Audit trail per install.
Per-panel photo
Before / paint-correction / coated photos per panel. Customer sees the work, not just the bill.
Coating warranty
Staff registers the warranty with coverage tier, install date, and recoat dates, then sends a branded PDF certificate by email with a public verification link — customers file claims from that same page.
Recoating reminders
Auto-schedule recoat appointments by tier (e.g. 3yr coating → reminder at month 30). Drives repeat revenue.
Aftercare automation
Day-1, day-7, month-1 aftercare SMS sequence built in. Sets the customer up to maintain the coating right.
Arkansas state context
Arkansas VLT laws + market context.
Film laws: Arkansas requires 25% VLT on front side and rear side windows, but the rearmost back glass only needs 10% VLT - darker than the other windows, not the same figure. Windshield: non-reflective strip up to 5 inches from the top. Medical exemption (post-2013) allows 20% on side windows, 10% on rear, 50% on windshield, valid 3 years.
Market: Arkansas combines hot summers (tint + ceramic) with a meaningful fleet/commercial wrap market driven by Walmart, Tyson, and J.B. Hunt corporate footprints. Northwest Arkansas (Bentonville/Fayetteville) is a growing luxury market.
Operators: always verify current VLT statutes with the Arkansas DOT before quoting work. Laws and enforcement vary by county; medical exemptions usually require state-issued documentation.

FAQ
Arkansas ceramic coating shop FAQ.
- Is ceramic coating worth it in Arkansas?
- Hot summers + Walmart corporate fleet drive steady commercial work. A quality ceramic coating adds a sacrificial, UV-resistant layer that makes washing easier and slows swirl marks, water spotting, and road-salt or brine corrosion — protection that compounds over the vehicle's ownership, not just at delivery. Little Rock, Fayetteville, Fort Smith are primary markets for the work.
- How much does ceramic coating shop software cost in Arkansas?
- SalesThumb is $199/month per shop for Arkansas ceramic coating shops. Tier-based pricing matrix, digital prep checklist, photo documentation, and automated recoating reminders all included.
- What is the best software for a ceramic coating shop?
- SalesThumb is built for ceramic coating shops — tier-based pricing (1yr / 3yr / 5yr / 10yr), digital prep checklist with audit trail, per-panel photo documentation, automated recoating reminders, and warranty registration. The aftercare SMS sequence is designed to drive repeat business as coatings near end-of-warranty.
- Does it handle multi-stage paint correction?
- Yes — paint correction (1-stage / 2-stage / 3-stage) is its own line item, separately quoted and tracked, with separate before/after photo capture so customers see the correction value distinctly from the coating.
