Fill (1) bucket with clean water, about 2 gals, fill (1) bucket with the Optimum No Rinse (per label).
Take one microfiber towel and place in the ONR bucket. Wash each panel with a side-to-side motion, no circles, after each panel, clean out the microfiber towel in clean water. Use the clean water bucket like a washing machine.
Wash from the top, down using very light pressure.

Same as above, however use CarPro RESET shampoo in the (1) bucket.
Continue with wash process, rinse with stream of water in between each panel, washing in a conventional manner
Drying
Use: CarPro EcH2o and Meguiars Drying Towel

Spray EcH2o lightly across one entire panel, controlling the area of spray
Lightly wipe with microfiber towel flipping towel to fresh sides often
Spray once more across panel surface
Using a fresh microfiber towel wipe surface removing remainder of dust and dirt
Move to next panel, repeat steps 2-5, and continue around vehicle
Final step – wipe entire vehicle with a fresh clean towel as needed

Spray 303 Aerospace Protectant on clean microfiber liberally
Out of direct sun, wipe surface with 303® Aerospace Protectant and WIPE COMPLETELY DRY.

CQUARTZ FAQs
How long until my car can get wet?
12-24 hours after your vehicle was coated it can be exposed to water. If wet before that time water should be blown off or safely wiped off before it dries on the surface. No water should touch your vehicle period for at least 2 hours in optimal temperatures.
How long should I wait before washing my car with soap?
You should wait a minimum of 5 days before washing with soap or using cleaners however bugs or bird bombs can be removed asap as directed below.
Should I use a drive through car wash?
Not if you care about your perfect finish! Drive through car washes have sharp, hard, dirty bristles that can severely swirl your paint.
Should I let the dealership wash it?
Never allow a car dealership to wash your vehicle. They do not understand how to, nor do they have the time or equipment to do so without introducing swirls into your perfect finish.
Will CQuartz Coatings prevent rock chips?
No, no coating can prevent rock chips however it will protect the paint from road rash caused by tiny sand fragments at high speed. For rock chips ask your Finest Installer about application of a ppf film after polishing and before application of Finest.
How long will it realistically last past the 2-3 years?
This depends on how you care for your vehicle.
What is the difference between CQuartz Pro and CQuartz Finest Reserve?
The short answer is just about everything. There are many differences between CQuartz and CQ Finest. While both are glass coatings Finest offers greater gloss, dust and dirt resistance, fine swirl resistance, a slick to the touch feel, more resistance to water spots and the environment, and FINEST is offered only through Authorized Installers who have developed their skills and take the utmost pride in their work.
