Sonax Net Shield over Cquartz?

**Mike lambert** · 04-30-2014, 06:03 PM

Sonax designed pns to go over the coating they have in Europe . I have talked to them and you can put it on coatings. You can put anything over coatings as long as you realize you will be looking at the characteristics of the top coat. I have ammo skin over c quartz finest with no problems.

How is the CQUK "2014 Edition" differentiated from any previous CQUK Editions?

Does the "2014 Edition's"-label reflect the changes in the formula's ingredients---and their newest %s?
-SiO2......70% (total)
-Fluorine...5% (more)

ANSWER: To Why?
I guess we can't leave our cars alone, and like to wax to cover the already shiny coating (ceramic, glass, whatever). With any quality coating then we know what is going to happen a few weeks or months after, the wax is going to wash off (well it is just going to slide off).

I hate ceramic/glass coatings, all you have to do is wash and dry, that is no fun at all.

From this thread:
Has anyone topped Sonax PNS with a wax?

IMHO:
Now is as good as time as any, to try to convince me that your decisions regarding:
"topping/layering" Coatings...weren't already
pre-determined.

Not sure what your getting at, but those are two different threads, that one i commented on after i made this one... no link between..

Thats what I figured and was kinda the whole thing I was going for in this thread. Thanks for the reply..

Yea...
If the analogy holds true...
Then the below is simply hilarious as well:

Having said that, I've tried two coatings and would never touch my car with anything else at this point. The car practically washes itself when it rains or driving in rain. It sheds dust and water like crazy.

However these advantages are realized only when you leave the coating alone! That's been my experience. Most can't resist the conventional thinking process. Washing and drying time are cut in half for me. I even took it through touchless car washes all winter long and the car still looks like I just detailed it.

Reload seems to be an effective topping if you simply can't leave the coating alone however its an additional step and expense but few here don't concern themselves with that. The average car owner would probably appreciate a coating more.

I'm not going to say this is fact...it's something I read. An individual said he did a lot of research on Net Shield because there wasn't much information available. He claimed what he found out was Net Shield was designed to go over toppings to eliminate water spotting issues that occur with some coatings.
I use EXO and love it. I haven't noticed any water spotting issues with that but I have it on a garage queen that is washed quite often.

On the other side of the coin. I just bought CG Citrus clear shampoo because I believe that if you do put something on top of a coating, whether it's wax or gloss enhancers in shampoo or something else I believe that the surface is going to take on the properties of the last item put on. So water beading, sheeting, shine, slickness will all be the last product put on...
