Hi
from the pic i see kind of strips that roll , these strips are not bending right?
i dont see any problem to coat Cquartz on it, depends of what they made from.
in the thread lab test which a nice studant guy made in Poland he test it on plexiglass surface with very good hardness results , its almost same material i think .
ill try to find the video

Here is the video test :
[video=youtube_share;v2ADvrn9Pwo] - Cquartz adhesion by scalpel.MP4[/video]
2 or even 3 layers of cquartz on it will give more hardness even,
there wont any problems with flexibility since its very thin layer coat, each layer is round 1 micron

Thank you for your response:xyxthumbs:
The strips are not 'bending' per say, they're thinner spots in the polycarbonate to allow it to conform to the spiral(top pic) while retracted
Now that I'm taking a closer look at everything, I don't think flexibility of either products should be an issue as the bed cover's 'roll' is controlled, and nothing is 'stretched' or folded-
if that makes any sense
I have the one thats on my truck now- its a little beat up and cracking in some places, nothing major, and a new one waiting to go on(warrantied)
I think I might half and half the one thats on the truck now to see :idea:
