I just purchased a 2019 Corvette and want to ceramic coat her. I am looking for the best shine/gloss the car is garage kept. I have used Wolfgang Uber ceramic coating with good results in the past but wanted to know if their is anything better for a white car.

Car is white, there's only so much you can do to make it shine, it will never show much. Wolfgang is good. Get any coating from a reputable brand and you'll be good. I'm a fan of Cquartz UK 3.0 topped with either Gliss V2 or SiC.

Polishing is going to give you the most gloss. The coating just the icing on the cake.

Cquartz is a good option.

The two glossiest coatings that I have used are Kenzo Graphene which you can not get as it’s authorized installer only and the other would be 22ple Insanity.

Just thinking aloud…

•Are you going to have any paint
protection film (PPF) applied to at
least the most vulnerable areas?
-If so, I’d get that done first.


•Then, let’s see: what ‘Ceramic’?
-IMO: There are a number of good
ideas for your consideration in this

i have a white ZR2, 2 weeks ago I used Cquartz SIC.

Once a year I coat my vehicles, in the past I've use Black Fire and Wolfgang. While those products worked well, with the Cquartz (to me) looks a lot more "glossy".

IMO, polishing with Essence will help give white some pop or glow that many other polishes don’t. Also, topping with UK3.0 has yielded me many happy white vehicle customers. Matter of fact, I just detailed a white ZR2 this past weekend.

I have a Summit white Camaro and decided on Nova Evo just cuz I wanted something different. I’ll throw my vote into the CqUK3 hat just because I’ve used it before and the gloss was off the charts.
