If you order from Carpro USA, use code 15off to get a 15% discount anytime on everything except Microfiber Madness towels, or Rupes products.

If your going with a coating, and your putting it on in temperatures below 60* F down to 40* F, the CQuartz UK is what you want.

There is a kit with the Cquartz UK and reload actually on sale @ Carpro Usa now for $47.

This video was made before Essence came out. So you don't need the Eraser after Essence, you go straight to C quartz now. I do like to wipe down with Eraser after compounding before I use Essence, just to be sure I'm getting the best possible bond. The IPA you use will work as well.



I'm 100% sure if you have any additional questions in regards to application, Corey @ Carpro USA will be more then happy to help you, he is a great, honest person to deal with.

It works for me.

Just tried the magic blend of reload/ech20. Too dark when finished for pics. I can say I will have to keep reload on the shelf. It is a really good mix. Thanks for the mixture tip.
