Gloss coat how many CC ?

[sshazam]

Hello all,

Looking for some feedback for those that have used Gloss Coat, how many CC's did you use ?

The car is a Kia Optima with a pano sunroof and i'm not sure if I should go with the 10cc pack or 20cc pack?

I plan to do two coats.

Thanks everyone and have a great new year !

3-6cc depending on car size. 1 coat is all that's needed as long as you ensure even coverage. Anything more is pointless.

Some people indicate they coat an entire vehicle with 4cc, seems to be some debate on this, I have no idea, I have only used it once.

The full 10cc...


If you are "coating" a car with less you are doing yourself and your customer a dis-service.

I was able to do two coats on a two door Porsche with the 10cc tube and very little left. You should be able to get enough coverage from the 10cc and at least do a second coat on the horizontal panels.

I used 9 CCs of Gloss Coat on my minivan for one coat. Looking back in hindsight, I used too little because I was trying to avoid high spots.
I recommend that you buy the 20 cc syringe because you mentioned two coats, and you can use the extra that you might have for door jambs, wheels, etc.

So when doing coatings is it better to do 2 coats? Does it layer or does 2 coats just help to insure full coverage?

As reference I used 4cc for one coat (paint only). My car size is between a Kia Forte and Optima.

It layers - so it makes sense to do 2 coats if you have enough product. 3 or 4cc maybe way too thin if you ask me.

You will have plenty with 10cc on that kia. I just did a 2010 Camaro and used about 8cc's on it. That is with 2 coats on the car.
