    Cquartz vs mr fix 9h coatings

    That is the question isn't it? When we say "How long it lasts" what does that actually mean? If you mean it will bead water for 12 months or more, ok, but to me beading water doesn't mean jack squat. What impresses me is, how well does a product protect against real life issues like bug...

    Cquartz vs mr fix 9h coatings

    If you had issues taking off Mr Fix, you probably did not take it off correctly. I found it much easier to use than Cquartz Products I have used in the past. The trick with Mr Fix, as per the instructions, you have to first take off with a Damp Microfiber towel, then immediately wipe dry with...

    what is your opinion on car pro gliss as standalone product

    I understand where the OP is coming from. Here is the deal. Personally? I think SiO2 is way over hyped. Yes it's glossy, yes it's chemical resistant, but oddly a decent thunderstorm and not being able to detail your car immediately afterwards may cause water etching so badly on some paints...

    xzilon what to use after applied

    Xzilon is a carbon based polymer nano protectant. I actually really like the stuff. Leaves a super glossy and super slick surface and is easy to apply. Xzilon got a bad name from it being oversold at car dealerships for ridiculous prices. the product itself though is pretty good if you can...

    Please chime in on CarPro Gliss v2...

    I find it interesting how people are stating they get 1.5 to 2 yrs out of a product when they really aren't? If your continuedly applying products on top to "maintain" the coating then how do you really know its lasting you 2 yrs? NOBODY I know that has put a "coating" on their car leaves it...

    Is Anyone Else Tired of All the Ceramic Pile-Ons?

    Much respect to you my friend and I am sure your car looks great with that turtle wax and has for years, now that is awesome. If it ain't broke, don't fix it 👍

    Is Anyone Else Tired of All the Ceramic Pile-Ons?

    Anytime, don't get me wrong I am a car enthusiast and I want my cars to look great, but you take into the account, time, effort, longevity for the money? I just don't see it. There are so many good products these days that are less expensive, less time consuming and though have to be applied...

    Is Anyone Else Tired of All the Ceramic Pile-Ons?

    Ceramic Coatings to me are totally not worth it for a daily driven car. Yes, some will argue this point but I am going off my own experience. I had CQuartz UK 3.0 + Gliss applied to my wife's truck, and my car about a year ago. Now, there is SSOO much hype over these products of whatever...

    1500HP Project Cadillac CTS-V vs Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Paint Coating v2

    I have always been a fan of the CTS V series, 1500hp should be doable, but may be limited to tire size on the rear like in the earlier Corvettes. Traction is what will be that cars worst enemy. The Paint looks beautiful....would love to see this car when its done. Is he going with a Crate...

    VW Paint Help

    Hello Folks, I need some help here, the frustration is just getting to me so bad. Over the years I have owned numerous cars by various brands, mainly Asian cars and while some had great paint, others did not. So I moved away from Asian Cars and purchased a 2013 Shadow Blue VW GTI (rare color...
