Questions on Gyeon CanCoat Evo and its application

[MrOneEyedBoh]

Those towels should be fine. Be sure to demote them after use though.

I wonder if I can throw them in a strong APC bucket and then wash immediately? Will they be salvage-able?

I stop ruining towels with spray coatings by using a microfiber brick, it works just as well, and then the after wipe with a normal microfiber doesn’t harm the towel. The plastic layer bricks that are above somewhere are the hot ticket.

On a slightly different subject, I really wish the chemists that come up with these coatings, could do something like the spray blue aerosol that I use to clean my sinks, it comes out blue, and you know it has its effect after it turns white so you can rinse it down. I wish that you could spray on a coating like CanCoat, and have it be slightly chalky or something and then as it wipes down with a microfiber that would disappear. Then you could see if you had any hi spots or spots where you just missed it all together.

You can, but I don't personally risk it. I generally demote them to the rag pile/oil changes/machine maintenance ect.

Ive used wipe off coating towels many times, including can coat.

Pure evo however has left hard spots on my towels. But after i realized that i soaked them right away in towel kleen, washed at a later date. No issues since.

I bet an apc would serve the same result.

You just have to like always...inspect your towels after every wash.

Whats your thoughts on a wipe between coats? There is going to inevitably have some pollen settling on the paint between the first coat and second coat. Should I just leave it as is and just roll with another coat?

Adam's has some coating that reacts to UV light and then you can see if there's a spot you still have to wipe off. I haven't tried it so I can't say how well that really works.

Only 1 layer is needed. If it’s going to get pollen then wait until the first wash. Pollen is abrasive.

No harsh chemicals should be used on a fresh layer including a panel wipe.

Stupid question but I also live near you Guz and what does our pollen look like? I have a fresh dark redish dust all over after a day of siting. 3 days. Forgetaboutit!

I’m in LA and I’m not sure if I’ve ever experienced pollen. But I can show you what smog & refineries do to contaminate some paint. Lol.
