Default Ceramic Pro or not

Hi Friends--

Normally I detail my car myself, however my Polisher was no longer working. Decided to bring my car to my local detailer. Here is the results on a 2003 Sc430 with Ceramic Pro product.

I did mine after a fresh paint job. It provides a beautiful high gloss coating that repels water to bugs. But I have to admit that afterabout ten months, the trunk lid and top needs another coat.

Ceramic pro comes in many varieties of protection packages-----The product that was use on this car was Ceramic Pro Sport, the least expensive spray coating.
YouTube it and you will see how they apply the product. The other Ceramic Pro coatings are very expensive, depends on what level/years you would like it to last.

The reason the car also shines is the polishing of the car and wipe down before applying the Ceramic Pro Sport.
