Why Colorado's Climate Demands More Than a Basic Car Wash
Colorado's climate is one of the most demanding on a vehicle's finish intense UV rays at high altitude, hail storms, road de icers and dramatic temperature swings can fade paint, degrade trim and strip waxes faster than almost anywhere else in the country. At Colorado Auto Spa our exterior detailing goes far beyond a standard car wash. We perform a thorough hand wash and dry followed by a decontamination of your paint using professional clay bar and iron removal treatments that reaches every panel, badge, grille and wheel well. Whether your protecting a daily driver from Colorado's harsh elements or preserving the flawless finish of an exotic we apply professional grade ceramic based sealants and ceramic coatings that create a durable shield against whatever the Front Range weather brings next. With over 30 years of experience, our team has the expertise to perfect every vehicle because here in Colorado, protection isn't optional, it's essential.
What is Paint Decontamination?
Paint decontamination is the process of removing embedded contaminants from your vehicle's paint and clear coat that regular washing cannot eliminate. Over time microscopic particles of iron fallout, brake dust, pollution, tar, tree sap and road grime work their way into and bond with your vehicles clear coat leaving the surface feeling rough, looking dull and preventing waxes, sealants, and ceramic coatings from bonding properly.
Professional paint decontamination at Colorado Auto Spa involves two key steps. First a chemical iron remover is applied to the paint which reacts with and dissolves metallic contamination embedded in the clear coat you can actually see it working as the product turns purple on contact with iron particles. This is followed by a clay bar treatment that physically lifts and removes any remaining tar, sap, industrial fallout and surface bonded contamination that the chemical step loosened. The result is a perfectly smooth genuinely clean surface that you can feel when you run your hand across the paint.
Paint decontamination is a critical step before any paint protection application including wax, sealant or ceramic coating because applying protection over contaminated paint seals those contaminants in rather than keeping them out. For Castle Rock and Denver Front Range drivers dealing with brake dust, road salt, and Colorado's variable weather conditions, regular paint decontamination is one of the most important steps in maintaining your vehicle's finish and long term value.
