You have quite a few options. You could always try a graphene coating if you want to try something a bit different than an SiO2 coating. Are you looking for an actual coating, coating lite or a spray on coating? What is your budget for a coating? Meaning is there a price range you want to stay under.

If you want to step it up a level from that, this might be of interest ...
GTechniq EXO and CSL Kit
I agree, Ive got Cquartz on my Saturn and it has been on there since 2017 still sheeting water like crazy. It is garaged but it is driven at least 200 miles a week.

My friend wants to do a coating, money isn't an issue - unless it's crazy expensive. Ease of application (not looking for a finicky one) and longevity are top priorities.

It's so easy and inexpensive...why not use it every 3 months, so easy

But is that the 303 performing or your Tac Systems coating underneath?

I will be putting one of your recommended combo coatings on the Santa Fe and before fall and on the MDX. I will have to say though the CanCoat is still going strong on the MDX at almost 4 months.

CanCoat will out perform 303 and the Meg’s HC in every facet.

…and I love the CanCoat on my MDX so I may keep it. You have to be within 3 feet of it to even be able to tell it’s dusty…not dirty but dusty. I was thinking about the Megs or 303 for my daughter’s Santa Fe. Something easy!

Similar experience with CQuartz UK 2.0 on my daughter's car. I coated that car in spring of 2018 and when I saw it three weeks ago, it was still sheeting and beading like it was a fresh application.
For a traditional, multi-year coating, CQuartz UK is hard to beat.

Re: Going to help a friend detail their new SUV
Thanks guys, I still haven't decided, but I'm considering CQUARTZ UK 3.0, Glassparency Graphene as well as the last one I used on my CX-5 - Fictech- which is so very easy to apply.

I looked at the 303 website and saw where it stated the 303 Graphene durability was 12 months. That is a pretty good duration even if it can get 6 months that would be pretty good.
