    First time using CQUK - On Black!

    SO I have a regular customer who saw a uTube vid on CQUK and HAD to have it. No worries, ordered some up on AG, set up a appointment on a sunny day ( rare here this time of year). Gave the truck a good wash, Iron X, clayed and a good polish with 205. Wipe down with Eraser and went to it. The CQ went on easy enough and seemed to be very even. Buff off was easy with few high spots and they were easy to knock down with the suede MF wipers. Gave it an hour, finial wipe with Reload, mixed 2:1 with DI Water.....customer could not believe his eyes! I've used GTechniq in the past, but I think I may move to CQ - (UK for the Northwest climate).

    That looks really good. 2 thumbs up! I might be a little partial to Black Rams though.

    I went with GlossCoat for my first coating. I'll be doing my car soon.

    I initially had CQUK in my basket but then reread some threads.
    How long did you wait before the buff off?

    The truck looks fantastic.
    You must be a natural, considering the size of the panels you had to work with.

    Dang Mike! Nicely done! Looks incredible.

    If you are going to move to CQUK I would also move on with Essence to compliment it.

    I haven't used it yet but it makes sense to use as a prep for CQUK and eliminate the need for an Eraser wipedown.

    Of course just my .02
