Hello everyone

many customers ask me to update the user guide video we made long time ago for cquartz,
some customers also ask for more easy guide line visually , to make it more safe and easy application.

so here it is!

this video show the complete step by step, from the rinsing to finish coating.

great thanks to Orion from AutoBling.net to find some time and take this video steps .

any questions are welcome.
 
After he wiped it off, how long before you can wash it?
 
I have to say thank you for posting up an application video. The one thing that kind of messed up with me a bit was the whole redoing a step over and over again...also his cotton pad was falling apart all over the damn place.

Also thank god for the mute button.

and...Hangul salameh sayo?

thats why you can see there small pic with the suede+applicator. each customer can choose his way, the better way is with suede wrapped the app.

redoing step over and over??? you mean washing after polish?
this is the most pro way to do it.. if you want to cut the washing after polishing.. its your choice..
we need to show the complete thorough way to apply it.
 
I thought eraser was created to make it so that you don't have to wash after polishing?
 
So cquartz can give a darkening effect to the paint?
 
We pretty much followed the same process shown in the video except after machine polishing the paint we didn't re-wash the car but instead used Eraser to carefully wipe the paint down to remove any polishing residue.

The finish looks real liquid and glassy...

Thanks for posting the vid, Avi. It actually makes me feel like I can do the job. I know I can keep cotton from falling all over the vehicle. And was it just me or did he have water floating all over the place. Seems more forgiving than I thought. Can't wait to give it a try.

Mike, did you do just paint? How about wheels and glass? (I guess I could go to the original post but I'm lazy.)

yes its true..
as i said.. Orion in Taiwan is even more pedant in his work.. eraser after polishing would be ok as well.

Thank You for sharing the video Avi.

I thought you mentioned in another Thread I started that the little blue CarPro MF's were NOT used for CQuartz removal?
I guess to each their own,right.

Why not??
its the same suedes as the 20cm2 and 40cm2 that AG sell
the total opposite.. its perfect for cquartz removal!!
 
Written instructions are great but a video is over the top, watching someone apply it is just so much better. :props:

I thought you stated,that the small 20cm2 blue suedes(Post#27) are NOT for wipe-off?

"we use cquartz on Japs cars in the east, as you all know very soft paint.. no problem at all! , the small suedes supplied are not for wipe off!! they are for applying the cquartz, for wipe off you need short loops mf, not plush, or terry cloth MF."

I'm a little bit confused on your statements Avi?
 
I mean inside the kit, they should be used for the applying procedure.
to use these small size suedes for wiping the whole car will be hard work ...
sorry for the misunderstanding. but the are very good for cquartz wiping and reload.
if i would have insert them for wiping it should have been bigger size, the 20cm2 or the 40cm2.
 
Lint-free, soft, and smooth.

For some reason, it's very hard to wipe off after it cures. It catches my microfiber towels and I actually have to put some strength into wiping away Cquartz. I might've let it sit too long or maybe should I just use the suede microfiber towels?
