Cquartz Finest, Gtechniq Exo V2 are my favorites. They have the slickest surfaces amongst the coating industry with water beading angles of 110 degrees. Modesta glass coatings is more of a boutique product and has a longer lifetime than the other coatings. I saw some pictures of a cure block of Modesta coating and it looked like a block of glass.

5 star shine works!
I have used it on my 650i. Leaves a deep shine that makes the paint feel and look like glass.
In order to keep it working don't use soap (the soap film will just stick to the paint even after rinsing), just running water and a sponge; the key is to keep the dirt from scratching the clear coat. Also, for those bugs, let the water soak the bug spot, then wipe away! You will also need to buy the PPS cleaner which you can apply at anytime you feel the slickness of the paint decrease due to oxidation and impurities getting into imperfections in the paint. It is well worth the $70 it costs! Does it last 5 years? If you take really good care of your car it will get pretty close. |
