Interesting process - I like the foam ----

C Quartz ceramic coating is an auto "wax." It has received good reviews on Amazon.

How much did the whole process cost?

Did they clean:

The fender wells?
Door hing area?
Inside the wheels (ie behind the spokes)?
Undercarriage?
Engine compartment?
Trunk seal area?

It protects the paint, also it is very hydrophobic, water washes off easily, it gives a glossy look to the car and it repels a lot of dirt. As for any other benefits, I suggest you read on them via their website or contact a company that performs these services.

I will PM you the cost.

As for the foam, that is a method used by many to wash their cars. You need a foam cannon, a pressure washer and soap (I use Chemical Guys' Mr. Pink, I tried it once and I am not fully satisfied, will give it another chance when I wash my car again). The car has to be cleaned before applying the coating so no dirt is trapped under it. They did clean the door hinges but the rest I am pretty sure they didn't, the coating is only applied to the paint/glass/leather interior.

Cquartz is great. I recently had my buddy stack four layers on the exterior and also did the trim on the interior. It brings a lot of depth to the color and keeps your car clean longer. Also cleaning my car is a breeze now, everything just comes right off.

Thanks for sharing. There is nothing like a clean look. She looks fantastic.
I ordered mine with the red interior and it keeps growing on me more every time I see it. Our cars would be twins except I ordered mine with the black wheels.

Looks nice will this go over the dealership coating that also protects the paint?

Great video!! That's basically how I wash my car on a daily basis. The only I would suggest is to let the foam sit on the car and let virtually all the soap come off. Then rinse the car off and then wash it using a two bucket system. That's the point of a foam bath. Did he use Sonax Sealant on the Wheels?

Thank you for posting Nelson.

As you guys can see on the video we used CQUARTZ UK + Reload Soap on the exterior and wheels. The interior received a CQUARTZ Leather.

Car looks amazing in person! We can't wait to start adding some CF parts!

Thanks JP.

You wash your car on a daily basis? That is the definition of absolute car care.

They used a CQuartz product for the wheels.
