coating (cquartz or opti-coat) durability/capability question

[IID]

the truth is that we thought about it already, self healing coat.
it already exist in Infiniti cars paint...but to make it anti scratch and self healing ... this is new...
i have few projects before that.. but definitely will work on it in near future..!!!

Sounds Awsome.
If you need a beta tester in the states or a review done in the future(once developed)you can count me in
Sounds like another game changer in the wonderful world of automotive detailing.

Ok, I want to wrap my wife's truck in the self healing film. Awesome!

LineX will prevent bullets from penatrating the surface. lol

Makes me think of this:

I checked out that Xpel film while I was at SEMA and it was amazing stuff! I'm sure if the scratches were really deep you'd be SOL, but watching them take a wire brush to it and then repair itself with hot water, I was sold!

I've been using XPel products for several years...I think it's the best PPF out there!
The XPel self-healing PPF is definitely going on the Wife's Jeep.

So now I found a new claim on one of the Jeep forums, Rustproofing help for you guys....PLASTIDIP - Jeep Wrangler Forum The guy is claiming you can safely spray this rubber-like Plastidip stuff on the paint and then peel it off later with no damage. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Seems logical except if the stuff has any nasty compounds before drying that might eat at the paint. If it works I guess it could be a great $7 solution to keep out the nasty scratchy brush when going off road, then just peel it off when you get back home.

I've seen it used for emblems, and even rims but it's more of a semi permanent application.

Might not be feasible to apply and remove every time you want to go offroading...

I have seen several people use this on cars with no ill effects (usually to "black out" their grill, ala an Evo X style look).

Yeah, later in the thread he mentions needing to slit it with a knife to be able to get a hold of it to start peeling. Knife + paint underneath makes that sound like a bad idea lol. Maybe put a couple of microfiber strips at the edge of a panel or something and spray over it to start it like a pull tab for removal lol. Anyway, spraying anything like this on the paint that is not intended to be permanent just really doesn't sound like a good idea to me either. I just thought I'd see what others thought.
