Well, I've come to realize my eclipses paint is extremely soft, :awman:even my new carpro lambs wool mitt scratches it (very lightly). It's a good wash mitt nonetheless, I don't know why it did what it did, since my car was fairly clean to begin with, I might have picked up something in the mitt while washing :confused:

Anyways I'm looking into buying some sort of coating to use on my car that will be "harder" than the paint right now. I don't know if I should get opti coat 2.0, cquartz, or Exo. I would greatly appreciate any I input in how these coating behave in terms of hardness or softness.
 
Based on hardness, I would go OC, especially OG if you have access.
On looks, EXO and CQ have a very small advantage over OC

In terms of slickness, EXO beats them all, but C1 would be a more apple-to-apples comparison.

You gotta be extra carful applying the coatings if your paint is "super soft", otherwise apply the coating itself can leave some marring.
