How does Ceramic Pro enhance vehicle appearance?

Ceramic Pro enhances vehicle appearance by creating a high-gloss, mirror-like finish that resists environmental contaminants and fading. The proprietary silicon dioxide network chemically bonds to automotive paint, delivering superior depth of color and wet-look clarity compared to wax or polymer sealants. City Wide Auto Spa applies these coatings in a controlled environment, ensuring uniform film thickness between 1.5–2.5 µm for optimal light refraction and surface leveling.

In comparative gloss meter readings (measured at a 60° angle), vehicles coated with Gtechniq ceramic layers exhibit an average gloss increase from 75 GU (gloss units) to 110 GU immediately post-application, maintaining over 95 GU after six monthly maintenance rides. This 47% gloss uplift persists even under UV exposure exceeding 1.2 W/m²/nm in the UV-A spectrum, preventing paint oxidation and dulling.

1. Color enhancement through microfillers that smooth paint surface irregularities

2. Hydrophobic surface reduces water spotting, preserving clarity after washing

3. Chemical resistance prevents etching from bird droppings and tree sap

4. Anti-static properties repel dust, keeping vehicles cleaner between washes

5. UV inhibitors block up to 99% of harmful rays to prevent clearcoat yellowing

By combining these optical and protective attributes, Ceramic Pro transforms automotive paint into a showroom-fresh surface with minimal upkeep. This aesthetic upgrade appeals to owners of luxury, exotic, and daily vehicles who demand both beauty and resilience in Minneapolis’s varying seasons.

What is Ceramic Pro’s application process and techniques?

Ceramic Pro’s application process begins with a comprehensive multi-stage surface preparation to ensure perfect adhesion and lasting performance. City Wide Auto Spa technicians meticulously perform iron decontamination, clay bar treatment with synthetic lubricants, and dual-stage mechanical polishing to remove scratches and swirl marks down to 1500 grit.

After masking trim and glass, a multi-layer ceramic system is applied in a temperature-controlled bay at 20–22 °C and 40–50% humidity for optimal curing. Initial prime layers of Gtechniq Panel Wipe are wiped onto paint, followed by 2–4 coats of ceramic coating, each flash-cured with halogen lamps for 2–3 minutes to crosslink the silica network. Stek paint protection film is squeegeed and heat-formed onto high-impact areas, with edge seals treated by a UV-curing primer to prevent lift.

 Surface Preparation and Application Steps

Stage	Process	Product/Tool	Duration
1	Iron Decontamination	Ferri-Clean Spray	10 minutes
2	Clay Bar Treatment	EP Clay Bar + Lube	15 minutes
3	Polishing	Rotary Polisher, 1500 grit	30–60 minutes
4	Ceramic Coating Application	Gtechniq C5, C6	10 minutes per layer
5	Heat Curing	LED/Halogen Lamp	3 minutes per section
6	Film Installation	Stek PPF	60–90 minutes per panel

The result of this meticulously engineered process is a factory-perfect finish that bonds at the molecular level, delivering unmatched durability and chemical resistance. Certified installers at City Wide Auto Spa adhere to manufacturer protocols, ensuring consistent performance rated to last 5–7 years under normal use and proper maintenance.
