    Re: Can CarPro's leather coating be applied over Gtechniq's leather guard?

    Thanks! I gave it the water test, and well its certainly still doing something, just not sure it is protecting much as it tended to initially bead right up but than be semi absorbed, pretty sure if I hadn't wiped it off quickly it would of spotted... I have about 2 more weeks here in the Florida heat. While I would love something to do I may just wait till I home and have access to a cooler garage and a full line of supplies before tackling it...

    I could not have said the above any better.

    Here's the BIG PICTURE

    Do NOT look for a product that claims to last forever. It's simply not going to happen - especially for the DRIVER'S SEAT.

    Instead - look for a product YOU LIKE and develop the discipline to use it often. For example - for the driver's seat, clean and reapply once a month. If you do this, your seat will always look great and feel great.

    I agree with this too. And - leads back to find something that is quick, simple and easy to RE-APPLY.

    Re: Can CarPro's leather coating be applied over Gtechniq's leather guard?

    Neither has been overly hard to apply, I started with Gtechniq's based of Mike's reviews and it was everything he indicated...

    Cquartz was slightly more time consuming, but nothing that couldn't be done every few weeks if need be, without hassle...

    It mostly in my head, as I haven't had either product on my cars for very long, just seems life the Cquartz has a more protective type of feel to it...
