I think this is a natural marketing progression for YouTube detailers and personalities in general. First, you have to build an audience and establish your credibility and reputation. Then you introduce a product line. I think they do it for a few reasons. 1) so they don't solely have to...

If mostly removing dust, do you need something as strong as Power clean? I'd go with your pre treat and then traditional rinse less wash and save the Power clean for any spots you need to hit. Then you can give those areas an extra hit of ONR to remove the PC. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

I use the solution from the wash bucket also. The standard 1:256. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Autogeekonline mobile app

Re: Removing CQuartz UK & SiC high spots Still have to correct the high spots but looks pretty good. Biggest lesson learned, I should have just done one coat at a time instead of rushing to hit the 60 minute windows. Also, switch applicators and towels more frequently. overall. Sent...

Should I use Essence instead of the polishes listed above? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Autogeekonline mobile app

Re: Removing CQuartz UK & SiC high spots Yes, I remember your reply from the other thread. I figured the 2nd coat would help even it out if I missed any spots going fast. Frankly, I could probably have justed used SiC or a sealant\carnuba since the car doesn't see the elements. But l like...

Re: Removing CQuartz UK & SiC high spots Yes, I did 2 coats of UK and one of SiC. It definitely was a learning experience with the time window. The combo does look really good! I think my plan should be to wait a week, catalog all the spots I want to correct and then knock them out at one...

Thanks Guz. I'm going to inspect tomorrow. My lighting wasn't the greatest and I felt rushed frankly since I had to apply the second coat and SiC in 1 hour intervals. The Viper has a lots of scoops and ducts. I do think I will have polish residue in one area. If I have to repolish, what I...

I coated my vehicle today with 2 coats of UK 3.0 and a topper coat of SiC. I noticed some spots were there was left over wax residue even with a double panel wipe and I expect I will have some high spots to correct. A couple of questions: 1) Should I knock out any areas that need to be done...

That is the plan. I've never applied CQuartz before but have used other coatings. Hopefully I can work fast enough for the hour window between coats. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Thanks all for confirming. I figured it would be removed but wanted to double check since I'm putting on CQ UK and SiC next week. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

I'm coating my vehicle next week and plan to do a quick rinse less wash before panel prep wipe down. Will a double wipe down remove the ONR in rinse less wash strength? Thanks, Rick Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Really, I'm about coat my car next week with this combo and thought I only had an hour between the 2nd coat of UK and the coat of SiC. I would like the benefit of more time. Sent from my SHT-W09 using Tapatalk

Glad to see the favorable review of that combo. I'm putting it on my Viper in the near future (polishing old coating off as we speak). How many coats of each product did you do? Also, did you coat plastic, trim, etc? Thanks, Rick Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

I've coated 4 - 5 cars and never have been able to end up without a high spot. Thankfully, they are no too bad to deal with and I'm extremely picky. Rick Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk
