Thanks to all for the info!! I really appreciate the great info. That helps me tremendously!!

Unfortunately I recently hit a deer and damaged my front quarter panel and busted out the grill on my 2020 Chevy Colorado. in June I put a coat of Gtechniq crystal serum light, and 2 coats of EXO-V4. Just got it back from the body shop today (2-12-21). They told me they feathered the paint on...

I can handle the mini light!! On my short list. Thanks Mike!!

Whew!!! I dogged a bullet on this one. So according to the email response from GTechniq, they told me to try another layer of EXOv4 let it sit for 20 seconds and then wipe it down. I did it tonight and it worked like a charm. It acted a little like a solvent and picked up all the swirl marks...

Once again I just want to thank you. I imagine you are a very busy guy and taking your time to help me is awesome!! I know it will be a live and learn lesson. Based on the temperature that day the EXO product recommended a 2 min delay for the wipe. I did one area at a time each using a...

So I also emailed GTechniq and here is their response: Jim, No worries at all. If it is exo, my first move would to apply a little bit of exo to the spot and wipe after 20 seconds. The solvent in the product may break down the spot. Worse case, a light polish and reapplication of exo is al...

Ok thanks to all!! So I slept on this and now I don't feel any better than finding it yesterday...LOL. So another question. If I do the entire door, how do you know when you have all of the CSL and EXO removed?? I thought the CSL info said it has to be sanded off if you need to remove it? I...

Here is my mess up!! Still makes me ill just seeing it. Still can't believe I missed it too!!

There are so many polishes.. How do I know which one to use? Also will it remove the ceramic coating also? I thought I could maybe get just the exo off?

Hey Mike!! One more thing. I all my glory, I was showing off my finish to my brother in law tonight. I discovered a small area on my driver door(probably about the size of my hand) where I must have missed wiping down the Gtechniq EXOv4 coating. Huge face plant...LOL. I wanted to puke...

Ok so I am a little challenged on this forum. But even sideways you get the shine quality!! I kept having to resize my pic because I couldn't seem to find the file size limit. Somehow in the process it rotated on me?? Doesn't rotate on my PC. Weird. But thanks again!! Jim

Well guys, thanks to all of your help and advice, my truck has an amazing ceramic coating and 2 layers of EXO4!! It shines like a mirror now. I really don't want to take it out of the garage now! I ruined my desire to haul stuff in the bed and get it dirty now...LOL So thanks again for...

Great info Guz! Thank you for the reply. I will do as you recommend. So much to learn...but having the extra knowledge makes things much easier!

Thank you Mike. I have learned much more thanks to your help! I feel confident my coating will come out fantastic!!
