Just purchased a bottle and did watch the video on how to apply this product.

1. I'm applying the coating on a white car. Will I not see the "rainbow flash" mentioned in the video?

2. What happens if I want to remove the ceramic coating?

3. What is the feel after this product is applied? When I touch it, it doesn't feel that much different from the clear coat that was on the factory paint. In the past, when I used the Wolfgang Deepgloss Paint Sealant. It leaves a very slick feeling. Is this not the case with Ceramic?

4. Can I apply Wolfgang DeepGlass Paint Sealant on top of the ProFi Ceramic coating? Or is that not really necessary and over kill?

Thanks!!

You should be able to see it, you just have to look and usually view from different angels depending upon the light in your garage.






2. What happens if I want to remove the ceramic coating?



You'll need to polish the paint - in other words, use an abrasive polish and polish the car to abrade it off.





3. What is the feel after this product is applied? When I touch it, it doesn't feel that much different from the clear coat that was on the factory paint. In the past, when I used the Wolfgang Deepgloss Paint Sealant. It leaves a very slick feeling. Is this not the case with Ceramic?



Most coatings do not make paint feel slippery like waxes and sealants. I only know of a few that do.

Because your question comes up all the time - I wrote a brand new article for this topic.


Can I apply a wax over the top of a ceramic coating? (https://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/how-to-articles-by-mike-phillips/127005-can-i-apply-wax-over-top-ceramic-coating.html)

On white there probably isn't much to be gained by topping the Wolfgang Profi coating. White lacks a certain degree of depth and shine compared to a darker color.

My advice based on owning a white car and coating it is to get yourself a good light. The rainbow effect can still be seen as Mike mentioned but lighting is key.



2. What happens if I want to remove the ceramic coating?


Any abrasive polish on a polishing pad will remove a coating.




3. What is the feel after this product is applied? When I touch it, it doesn't feel that much different from the clear coat that was on the factory paint. In the past, when I used the Wolfgang Deepgloss Paint Sealant. It leaves a very slick feeling. Is this not the case with Ceramic?



Most coating leave a tacky feeling. It’s not a bad thing. Just something to get used to. I can’t speak to this coating as I have not used it.



4. Can I apply Wolfgang DeepGlass Paint Sealant on top of the ProFi Ceramic coating? Or is that not really necessary and over kill?



You can. There is no law against doing so. Just know you will negate all of the befits from having a coating. I would stick with a maintenance topper if you have the desire to put something on. I believe Wolfgang has their own coating maintenance products.
