    Can I apply wax after I applied ceramic coating?

    There are only a few hybrid waxes that play well with coatings. Most of them are very expensive and contain coating elements, blended with carnuba. The one I use is .ore or less a coating in itself. Most other products will not work well and look like a lazy wax job in a few day after...

    Detailing Van Advice! Transit Connect vs Transit - 150

    The Sprinter version was in our fleet for almost 10 years. The biggest drawback was servicing costs, and we were averaging 25,000 mies + a year. The office complained each time we took then in for the 10,000 mile service to the dealer. We took them.there because they gave us a loaner Glk, or C...

    Detailing Van Advice! Transit Connect vs Transit - 150

    We have used the Mercedes Sprinter and the new Ford transit ecoboost which is currently in our service fleet. The Mercedes has expensive service costs but it is a better built rig and much much better fuel mileage. We were getting 18-24 mpg depending on the driver and load. The Ford ecoboost...

    Giveaway! "The Belt"

    I agree to a review. This is the first time I have seen this product and it looks like exactly what I need to stay clean and organized. I have a cart but that is more of a main station, and this looks to be a great product to keep on task without returning to the cart all the time to fetch...

    No time, lazy, need advice...

    I would stay far far far away from the delaership detail department. They will hide the problems for a bit, but ultimately do much more harm than good.

    Gyeon Now Available @ Autogeek + 15% Off Sale through Friday Night!

    The coating is rated @ 80% of the hydrophobic properties from initial appliction of 12 months. Topped off with cure, or overcoat every few months extends this waaaaay beyond that. I don't think the coating will need to be stripped and reappled every 12 months. Refreshing it with cure will take...

    How to wash a coated car - The Gentle Approach for Washing a Car by Mike Phillips

    I have found Meguires D114 to be the best waterless/ rinseless product for coated cars. Everything else has left something behind that did not play well with coatings.

    What is the best ceramic/nano glass coating for a first timer?

    Fool proof and no high spot issues are worth an arm and a leg if it saves having to repolish a panel to remove high spots. I have used gtech C1 and exo, blackfire, kamikaze, and polish angel. Polish Angel followed by Kamikaze were by far the easiest.

    What is the best ceramic/nano glass coating for a first timer?

    The easiest fool proof to use for a first timer is sold over at AG's sister company Autopia. Polish Angel. Applies like a wax, removes like a wax. No timeframe, or high spot stresses.

    Spray bottles & waterless wash

    2 towels yes but were talking very little dust. Were talking a car that was washed, then put in the garage for a week. Most normal people would say it was clean. Honestly if I cant get the car clean with two of the waterless wash towels, it is time to.go rinsless. I usually can get the hood...

    Spray bottles & waterless wash

    I use this kit and it works well. Never rinsed the sprayer and no issues. You would probably want to add a few more of the water less wash micros to the order just to make sure you have enough on hand. I can get away with 2 if the car just has garage dust only. The blackfire waterless is a great...

    PA Cosmic Spritz = IMPRESSIVE

    I have not had any issues with it yet, must have got the good bottle. I will give the cosmic a shot though. I liked the overcoat, but it seems expensive for the quantity, so.I wanted to try something new. Once used up I will give the Cosmic a shot, looks really good. Here is mine coated with...

    Can someone explain like i'm 5 the difference between carpro Reload VS Hydro2

    You may want to reach out to car pro. Reload is the recommended product to use over Cquartz. I have no experience with Hydro, so have no input there. My bet it it will work just fine as they are both somewhat based the same. If it were me I would ask Car Pro unless someone else here has input.

    Can someone explain like i'm 5 the difference between carpro Reload VS Hydro2

    I have no issues with reload, maybe it is the old formula that gave streaking issues. I have used it mostly as a drying aid on top of coatings, as well as a stand alone product sealant. I think you should try a smaller bottle, or I can send you a small sample to try to see how you get along with...

    More CQuartz Questions

    The cool thing about Reset is you need very little, it goes a long way. I just use a cap full for 3 gallons. I use Reload as I dry. I spray per panel, maybe a couple on larger panels like a hood, and the water just falls off, it hates water. Then you have dried the car and applied the detail in...
