Apply for Certification

Coating shops and applicators can apply for Certification through a 3-step process to gain Featured Applicator status. 

  1. Contact Aegis staff and request access to purchase the coupon testing kit 
  2. Once received, apply coatings to the included testing coupons and send coupons directly to the Aegis lab.
  3. Coatings will be tested for quality, purity and consistency of coating to determine proficiency.

Results of Testing

If tests do not pass, Aegis will provide recommendations on improving quality of coating and give direct feedback on areas needing improvement. Additional testing coupons will be mailed to you if you'd like to re-apply for certification.

For applicators that pass all aspects of testing, you will be sent a certificate of proficiency, given access to exclusive opportunities and listed among our featured applicator recommendation list.
