And as for the life of the coating I think they said 2 years. On my wife's. Car I saw about 15 months lots of driving and always parked outside.

It's the same prep process as every other coating. As for application you can use a foam pad or even the car pro method with the microsuede towel on the foam block. You do one section or panel at a time. Apply to surface thoroughly making to to cover it all. And then when it's starts to flash...

Water spots could be from hard water also. If they hosed them off and let them sit in the sun or possibly parked where a lawn sprinkler could hit them. The damage that can do to a car is nuts.

I clay mine whenever I polish it. So right now using cquartz I do it once every couple of years. The grades are just how aggressive they are. Medium will grab more off the surface and do it faster than fine but more aggressive clay has a better chance to mar or haze up the finish which is ok...

Also uber compound should be able to get the job done.

I would for sure give the microfiber a shot. As stated corvettes are usually super hard paint. Along with I think Cadillac xlr because they have the same paint process as the Vette. They are much more time consuming than meets the eye because of this. You can also shrink down your working...

This works. Also you could use a q tip with some compound or aio product like pinnacle xmt 360.

The DP coating is a great product and very forgiving. You are going to love it. Again I'll mention to for sure start least aggressive approach you have, but audi and VW will typically send you for the big guns on compounds and pads. 90% of the time I wind up with menzerna fg400 and a microfiber...

Cquartz is an amazing product but I feel as though I would prefer wax on a concours show vehicle. Cquartz is very glossy but coatings are made more for just long term and surviving the abuse of the roads. If you are truly looking to compete in high end shows you should be looking for someone to...

What I do for smaller boats, as long as it's on a roller trailer, just use adjustable tow straps on the back hooks of the boat and loosen them a little. Then slowly release the winch to let the boat roll down the trailer the 2 or 3 inches to clear the rolls. Polish those areas and the crank the...

Yea absolutely something that wouldn't just come off with a wash. Maybe show him videos of removal of film so he can see how it can't be an accident and agreed, yes check the other door.

Probably depends on your area. If you had it fully stripped ready to go and they only need to skim some areas with filler, in my area for a reputable great painter it would ballpark 5-6000 for nothing special. But there are lots of guys around here that do really good work around 2-3000. You...

Really it's not going to hurt to try getting through the spray paint, it's just a lot of time to sink into a project if it doesn't pan out at the end.

I've been looking to try some other offerings just for the experience. I've done about 20 vehicles with cquartz uk and can vouch for it not being the easiest. My first couple on my vehicle and my parents was quite the experience which was great because it helped me price the service accordingly...

And the inserts between the leather I just used light steam and 20:1 Apc and then did a quick 303 fabric guard mist on them.

It's very unfortunate they weren't interested in paying for the full leather care. The only reason I cleaned it so well is because my price considers being a sedan so the time saved there went into the seats since there were only two of them. So it got wiped down with mothers vlr instead of...

Yea the photo was taken in the exact same light car wasn't even moved. Such a layer of grime made it just look dull and faded.

Yea with it being painted over already you probably want to just start with a proper paint job. Are the jams and everything still the original color? If so a resprayed might not be overly expensive. Also have you considered getting a professional wrap job in the color you are looking for?

I'm really happy with inside. They've got a really nice product.

I noticed this myself with my pms
