CARPRO CQUARTZ UK 3.0 ceramic coating kit with Reload 2.0 — 50 ml + 100 ml

CARPRO CQUARTZ UK 3.0 ceramic coating kit with Reload 2.0 — 50 ml + 100 ml

This complete set combines CARPRO CQUARTZ UK 3.0 ceramic quartz coating with Reload 2.0 spray sealant for the initial protection and maintenance of the coated vehicle. CQUARTZ UK 3.0 creates a deep glossy and strongly hydrophobic surface with resistance to salt, chemical contamination, UV exposure, traffic film and wash-induced marring. The current CARPRO Global specification gives a real-world durability claim of 18–24 months and an application range from 3 to 40 °C.

The set contains one 50 ml bottle of CQUARTZ UK 3.0, one 100 ml bottle of Reload 2.0, four 4-inch microfibre suede applicators, one CQUARTZ applicator block and one 16 × 16 inch orange suede leveling towel.

Application of CQUARTZ UK 3.0

1. Wash and fully decontaminate the vehicle. Remove bonded contamination, polish defects if required and wipe the paint with a suitable panel-preparation product to remove polishing oils.
2. Do not apply in direct sun or on a hot surface. Shake the bottle, wrap a fresh 4-inch suede around the applicator block and apply one or two lines of coating.
3. Spread the coating in a cross-hatch pattern over approximately 60 × 60 cm or 2 square feet at a time. Test the flash on a small section first and keep the working area under control.
4. When the coating flashes, normally within about 1–2 minutes depending on temperature and humidity, level and buff it off with a clean towel. Inspect from different angles and remove every high spot.
5. A second coat may be applied after 45–60 minutes; if that window is missed, wait until the following day. Follow the current application protocol for the number of coats.

Reload 2.0 and curing

Apply Reload 2.0 over the finished coating within the recommended post-application window to help protect it during the initial cure and add slickness and hydrophobic maintenance. Keep the surface dry for at least 1 hour, preferably 24 hours, wipe away water during the first day and avoid detergents and chemicals for 5 days after coating.

Suitable surfaces and safety

CQUARTZ UK 3.0 is suitable for automotive paint and, after a compatibility test, suitable wheels, plastics, glass and metal. Work in a well-ventilated area and use hand and respiratory protection. Do not reuse suede applicators or coating-removal towels on paint. Avoid skin and eye contact, heat and ignition sources; keep out of reach of children and follow the current safety documentation for both products.
