Thanks the review!
I applied 2 coats of C Quartz Lite on Monday evening and the car has been tucked away in my garage.
We've been experiencing really heavy rainfall in Durban(South Africa) over the last couple of days.
I've read numerous posts regarding water spots on coatings. Is it absolutely necessary for me to top with reload to avoid this?.

This is a fantastic review too by the way, thanks The Guz.

I have been doing a bunch of CQuartz Lite installations in the shop. I know this is a consumer based coating but it is a great entry level coating & a fantastic introduction into the ceramic coating world for customers.
Super easy to up sell & a great performer too. Enjoy working with it.
... my last CQuartz Lite - New Mazda 2.

It is a 2019 Chevrolet Blazer RS in Nightfall Gray Metallic that came in for a semi new car prep.

Thanks. It is really a nice coating to work with.
The color on this Mazda looks great.

For those curious what is inside the applicator. I soaked it in strong dose of microfiber cleaner after use. It was not salvageable. Turned crispy.
There is a thin foam inner liner with a thin layer of plastic on one side of the foam.
Up close of the liner.
The other side is just foam
The design works and it does keep the coating from being absorbed into the foam core. But I have to give it to the Autofiber coating saver applicators for having the better design.
Not to mention the foam core can be utilized for other applicators.
Thanks Tony. I did 2 layers on this blazer.

Thanks. To correct them is compound polish strong enough or wet sanding required?

For those that doubt Cquartz Lite and don’t consider it a true coating this should debunk that myth.
This is my original bottle that Avi sent me prior to the release of this coat. Just shy of a year it became unusable and started to gel up. It has a 1 year shelf life.
I emptied this bottle out last year and that product turned to glass in another container. Today I was moving my empty coating bottles to a cabinet in the garage and I heard a rattling sound in this bottle.
Low and behold a crystallized ring formed at the bottom of the bottle from whatever product was left.

Was 1 year with the bottle opened?
Is there any other applicators you would recommend other than the Auto fibre?
