No issues with single stage paint.
It won't last as long as it would on clear coat (single stage is very porous), but it will still last 1 year plus.

For clear bras and paint protection film I would recommend CRYSTAL SEAL by BLACKFIRE. This clear polymer will provide UV protection while minimizing dirt accumulation.
Crystal Coat is not recommended for clear bras and paint protection film.

Thanks Nick! I just got my Crystal coat yesterday with a few other goodies including the new Flex PE-8 kit. I have a 2008 E90 M3 that is pretty much ready to be coated so I will try to post a quick review once I am done, this will be my first coating so hope all goes well, thanks again!

Re: *NEW* BLACKFIRE Crystal Coat Paint Coating!
Does anybody know off hand know the shelf life of this product once the bottle is opened?
I was using CQuartz UK last summer, and found out before attempting to use it for this season from the U.S. Company site that even though the one year expiration date hasn't come yet, once I open the bottle, the coating protection properties greatly diminishes over time; in fact, some of the professional users on their site forum said I should toss the bottle six months after I open it.

We went with a different cap design for this product to ensure a long shelf life. It's not going to expire any time soon.

Re: *NEW* BLACKFIRE Crystal Coat Paint Coating!
I've always wanted a BF coating with that signature backfire look!
Back to the full-time grind.

Re: *NEW* BLACKFIRE Crystal Coat Paint Coating!
Nick, when you mention paint protection film, are you including OEM film along with the aftermarket stuff? I'm curious about whether this would be recommended over the film that comes on some of the newer Nissans at the trailing, lower edge of the doors and at the front of the rear fender flares.

Any kind of PPF (paint protection film) in general, whether it's installed from the factory or an aftermarket supplier.

Thanks! Wasn't sure if film is generic in nature, or if auto manufacturers have some proprietary film or application methods. Thanks for clearing that up!
