Preparation
- First wash the car thoroughly and make sure it is well prepared by cleaning and decontaminating the surface. This can be done with CARPRO Iron X, TarX and, if necessary, a clay product.
- If desired, then polish the paint for optimal results (for example, with CARPRO ClearCut, Reflect and/or Essence).
- Degrease the entire surface with CARPRO Eraser (best 2 times with a clean microfiber cloth), this step is extremely important for optimal adhesion of the coating.
Coating application
- Do not shake before use! Open bottle slowly, contents are under pressure. Aim away from your face and others and wear gloves when opening.
- Apply 1 to 2 lines of product along the length of the supplied suede applicator or an MF applicator.
- Apply the ceramic coating evenly to the surface. Both in horizontal and vertical strips, over a section of about 60x60cm. Work in overlapping strokes.
- Then add more product to the applicator as needed to maintain a wet, even application.
- Wipe off the residue after about 5 minutes when it looks less wet but still not difficult to wipe off. (1~10 minutes depending on temperature and humidity). Use a quality microfiber cloth for this purpose.
- Finally, use a second microfiber cloth to wipe again and remove any residue.
- A second coat can then be applied after 45-60 minutes. Wait until the next day if you cannot apply it after 60 minutes.
Additional tips
- For best performance, apply 2 coats, maximum 3.
- Keep surface dry for at least 3 hours after application (for best results keep dry for 24 hours).
- To avoid possible water stains, water droplets should be carefully wiped off for the next 24 hours.
- Wait at least 7 days to wash the car again. During these days, avoid chemicals and friction with the paintwork.
- It is not necessary to apply Reload after installing SiC. Reload may damage the layer if used for the first few days.
CARPRO CQuartz SiC maintained
- Wash the car regularly with CARPRO Reset. Other car shampoos may leave unwanted residue that can reduce the performance of the nano coating.
- Use a quality microfiber or wool wash mitt.
- To dry the car, use a dedicated microfiber drying cloth such as CARPRO DHydrate XL, for example.
- Every 3 to 6 months, decontaminate the paintwork with IronX. Spray on first, then let it soak in for 5 minutes, then hose off. IronX removes stubborn contaminants such as fly rust that can reduce coating performance.
- After drying the car, apply additional protection such as CARPRO Reload. This is essential to optimize the life of the ceramic coating.
Caution
- Do not apply in direct sunlight or on a hot surface.
- Do not reuse suede applicators.
- Do not reuse the microfiber cloths you used to remove the coating.
- Wear nitrile gloves when applying the coating.
- Wear respiratory protection, such as a mouth mask.
- Always read the accompanying documentation first.
