    Last Thurs I started with a full decon wash with 3D Super Pre-Soak, McKee's 37 Xtreme Iron Remover, McKee's 37 Coating Prep Auto Wash. and Iron X Snow Soap. Today I finally started to polish off the existing coating in preparation of a new coating. I figure it will take me a week or more since...

    GTechniq CSL + C2V3 vs CSL + EXO + C2V3 - EXO worth it?

    If I were you I would do the decon wash but forget about the clay to not chance marring the paint. I would then coat it with can coat and apply that like every spring and fall. I would not try to do CSL on CSL without removing the coating 1st. Can Coat is quite hydrophobic and would to me be a...

    Salty roads leading to rust specks on freshly ceramic coated car... Normal?

    I have a few pictures of my car from last year when I did a RW/WW on it when I had CSL with EXO v3 at 9 months. It was quite cold then too and it hit a high of 2f that day. I first sprayed it down twice with N914 at WW strength and then did a RW with N914 at RW concentration. We can have some...

    Salty roads leading to rust specks on freshly ceramic coated car... Normal?

    With CSL being a apply and wipe off with no wait for flash I would guess humidity would have very little to do with it either. I have done about 10 vehicles with CSL in the last year or two with quite different conditions and it always seemed to act the same. I will say EXO was different...

    Salty roads leading to rust specks on freshly ceramic coated car... Normal?

    Temp would have very little to do with CSL since it can be applied in temps as low as 5c.
