About 716 Coatings

716 Coatings is a family-run Cheektowaga shop, Chris and Ally, that specializes in the protection Buffalo cars need most: rustproofing and undercoating, alongside ceramic coating, paint correction, and full auto detailing. With over fifteen years in coatings, the shop treats every vehicle, and even the occasional countertop, as if it were its own. Undercoating is the headline, and it is a genuinely different job from a wash. Road salt attacks a car from underneath, working into the seams, rockers, and frame where a pressure washer never reaches. 716 Coatings uses Fluid Film, a lanolin-based product that creeps into those seams and stays soft rather than drying to a brittle shell, so it keeps blocking moisture and can be re-coated each season instead of cracking and trapping salt against the metal. In a region where cars rust from the frame out, that under-body work often decides how long a vehicle lasts. Above the frame, the shop applies Pearl Nano and Ceramic Pro coatings over corrected paint, treats glass with a hydrophobic coating that sheds rain, refinishes wheels, and handles interior details, and it even coats home surfaces and countertops. Its headlight restoration sands the oxidized lens back and re-seals it rather than buffing a haze that returns in weeks, and the ceramic work follows a proper paint correction so the coating locks in a clean finish instead of the swirls. The Cheektowaga shop runs weekday and Saturday-morning hours by appointment.
