I had a corrction/protection detail this past weekend on a 2008' Pontiac G8.
The customer only drives this vehicle in the summer month's.He wanted a coating that had alot of shine and was easy to maintain.After discussing his option's,he settled with CQF.

Here are some before's:

Wheels were removed to clean them and the wheel wells:

CQuartz Finest.....Oh yeah it's like glossy glass :xyxthumbs:
 
Very nice. I also like the look with the tape on it. It would look sweet with gold trim.
 
Great work. I've only used regular CQ, but it is a great product as well.

Was a final wipe done with Reload?
 
Dayum!
Awesome work!
Looks like a different car, it even made the grass look greener...LOL!
I bet the customer was very Happy!
Major Reflection Injection!!

Mahalo for the pics...now I just need to get my hands on some.
 
Gotta give it to you. I have a G8 and it has some of the worst paint on the planet, chips easily, looks like crap, crazy thin and soft. Making a 4+ year old G8 look that nice aint easy.
 
Looks great Chris. What premium do you charge for this over OG? Is it as easy to apply as OG?

Funny that, my Holden Commodore SSV (same car) actually has rather hard paint, though I must admit it does chip easily.

I wonder if the G8's are painted over there, even though they're made here?
 
Nice, very nice. Man, that car was swirl city in the before pics!
 
Thank you ALL for the compliments.

I will be visiting the vehicle in the morning to apply the ReLoad.The CQF is curing on the vehicle,while its in his shop.
