How to apply cquartz? - complete video guide!

[Avi@CarPro]

I thought eraser was created to make it so that you don't have to wash after polishing?

yes its true..
as i said.. Orion in Taiwan is even more pedant in his work.. eraser after polishing would be ok as well.

So cquartz can give a darkening effect to the paint?

yes, very little as you see.
you can actualy see the thickness in this video for the coat.

Thanks for posting the vid, Avi. It actually makes me feel like I can do the job. I know I can keep cotton from falling all over the vehicle. And was it just me or did he have water floating all over the place. Seems more forgiving than I thought. Can't wait to give it a try.

the cotton way is this detailer choose..
i would advise the suede MF + applicator, as i show a pic there ..

Mike, did you do just paint? How about wheels and glass? (I guess I could go to the original post but I'm lazy.)

I cleaned the wheels and tires but we did not coat the wheels or dress the tires yet... I'll probably let Sam do that on his own...

Thank You for sharing the video Avi.

I thought you mentioned in another Thread I started that the little blue CarPro MF's were NOT used for CQuartz removal?
I guess to each their own,right.

Why not??
its the same suedes as the 20cm2 and 40cm2 that AG sell

Written instructions are great but a video is over the top, watching someone apply it is just so much better.

I thought you stated,that the small 20cm2 blue suedes(Post#27) are NOT for wipe-off?

"we use cquartz on Japs cars in the east, as you all know very soft paint.. no problem at all! , the small suedes supplied are not for wipe off!! they are for applying the cquartz, for wipe off you need short loops mf, not plush, or terry cloth MF."

I'm a little bit confused on your statements Avi?

[Avi@CarPro]

I mean inside the kit, they should be used for the applying procedure.
to use these small size suedes for wiping the whole car will be hard work ...
sorry for the misunderstanding. but the are very good for cquartz wiping and reload.
if i would have insert them for wiping it should have been bigger size, the 20cm2 or the 40cm2.

For some reason, it's very hard to wipe off after it cures. It catches my microfiber towels and I actually have to put some strength into wiping away Cquartz. I might've let it sit too long or maybe should I just use the suede microfiber towels?
