I decided to take off the first application of Cquartz I put down over a year and a half ago and reapply Cquarts UK 3.0 and layer with Gliss on top. The process was:

Wash with Reset, use Tar-X to decontaminate tar and remove Reload, wash to neutralize
Clay bar, Polish with Reflect and Honey Spider Pad to ensure coating was removed.
Eraser wipe down
Primer with Essence and red polishing pad
Apply Cquartz to paint and wheels 20200712_143245.jpg 20200712_144635.jpg
24 hours later, Applied Gliss.
Applied Mckees Glass Coating to windows

Third time applying Cquartz UK 3.0. It is a little grabby, particularly if you apply it light. I have found better success with applying it heavier than you would sealants or other coatings. Gliss applies and removes like a dream though. Really like that stuff. We will see on longevity this go around. The prior coating had only failed on the hood, but I re-did the entire truck so I could put Gliss on top of a fresh coat.

It looks fantastic I love the way the metallic looks. it’s a good idea to protect an investment like that and to make it look that good. It’s unfortunate that I’m too lazy to take the time and effort to do what you’ve done! I paid someon.
