Default Water sheeting

After correcting countless other cars I finally had the time to throw mine some love. Cquartz plus Reload is no match for water.

That's incredible. How long does something like that last?

I usually don't see spray on applications lasting very long. I prefer Klasse sealant which gets me a few months of protection on an average vehicle. That stuff does look like it beads nicely though, I'll have to try it out.

The cquartz coating is good for 18-24 months or more depending on how you use and care for your car. I apply reload every 4-6 months when I do a maintenance wash consiting of ironx and washing with carpro iron x snow soap, and tar x as needed.

Cquartz is much longer lasting than klasse. Two different types of products. Kalsse is a sealant where as cquartz is a coating. Reload is sealant and can be used as a topper over cquartz. Reload is stated to have a durability of about 6 months as it has a little SiO2 in it.

Cquartz will outlast Klasse by a long shot.

Oh I know The Cquartz coating will definitely run laps around Klasse. I've like Klasse for average jobs since its a quick on and off and lasts a good amount of time. I think I'll invest in the Cquartz for the high end jobs.

Nice, I have been meaning to top my cquartz with reload spray. Been about 4 or so months since application of cquartz just haven't topped with reload. Still have it sitting on my shelf
