Interesting this Jay, I'm thinking of doing my merc with this, minus the pano roof
How much cquartz did you use?
How easy was it to apply & work with?
Did you top it off with reload?
And given that you've used a good few LSP's what would you score it out of 10?

Thank you mate.
Yeah it's fairly easy to use all things considered.

Used about 25ml for the whole car 2 coats.
You can either buy 30ML or 50ML kits.
The key is perfect surface preparation everything needs to be polished to a high standard and then you MUST wipe down with Eraser. Sure you can use similar products like IPA, but Eraser is a really good one to work with.
Application is long more than difficult. It's important to use multiple light sources to check for smears or they look like holograms. Carpro say to use Suede Microfibres but what Nick and I found is that after initial application and a few further minutes to cure that a plush Microfibre towel will result in better product removal.
You seem to know a lot about this :happy2:
Yup, the car was topped off with Reload , I coated the car over 2 days, so I did half of the car up to the rear wings (minus the roof) and then after 6 hrs (including half an hour or so under the Infared lights to speed curing, this was topped with Reload before I went home for the night and then the next day the rest of the car got coated, and after another 6 hours or so the rest of the car was topped with Reload.
Makes a super slick surface. I am not going to be applying any other LSPs or reloading until I see a drop off in beading. Wanting to see how long it works.

Looks good Jay! :happy2:
Once my wallet recovers I think I'll treat my motor to some Cquartz... :wink:
