CQuartz: What are peoples opinions?
« on: June 11, 2012, 02:30:58 pm »
I'll be getting the car detailed in the next 2 weeks and the detailer has suggested i get 2 coats of CQuartz put on the car after.

Has anybody past experience of it? It looks to be good from the various reviews on detailing world etc..

TIA

I'm using it on my wheels, but all the reports say if applied correctly with the correct curing time it's good stuff.

The product is only as good as the person applying it. Who is doing it?

As long as its done inside cured with UV and the humidity is right you'll be fine. Also make sure he uses cquartz finest rather than just cquartz. All the approved cquartz guys now have cquartz finest, including me ;)

If your happy with his work go for it ;)

I've done mine outside without any UV light and I used normal Cquartz not "finest"... finest is just marketing trick not worth to pay extra price for product which is just 2% stronger ... and my coating is 1 year old and look as was applied yesterday .

All I can say Cquartz is great coating You do not need to be pro to get this coating on Your car most important thing is that Your paintwork need to be as scratch free as possible and You can't get Your car wet for at least 12 hours.

I do not have any experience with finest and I don't need it to know is nothing more than bit stronger Cquartz.

And all talking how great it is is just typical marketing talk... Why not run test to compare Cquartz vs Finest

Nice attitude! good luck with that.

I love it how people like yourself advise people about detailing when let face it you don't have a clue. hahaha!

Just because someone do not make living from detailing do not mean it hasn't got any clue ...

I know someone who don lab test on Cquartz and few others coatings and is true Cquartz is best product on the market, just not sure about all Finest marketing...
