First time Cquartz UK application. Feeling sticky
I preppped a portion of my car. To get a hang of the coating. When I applied it, it was feeling very sticky. The applicator was sticking to the paint. I read in one of a thread that it does not need to flash before wiping. Wiping was easy. No stickiness in that.
Am I doing anything wrong?
Re: First time Cquartz UK application. Feeling sticky
what's the temp and humidity like where you're applying?
Re: First time Cquartz UK application. Feeling sticky
Temperature must have been around 30 degrees C. Humidity not sure. But must not be on higher side.
Re: First time Cquartz UK application. Feeling sticky
That's what, 86 degrees F? Sort of high for CQUK

What did you do to prep the paint?
Re: First time Cquartz UK application. Feeling sticky
Washed the area. Used Meg Compound. Washed again. Used Carpro Essence. And then coating.

Your prep sounds ok. Maybe thinner coats. Sometimes I even get heavy handed which will cause the coating to get grabby.

May be due to small area I poured kess cquk. Will check again when i will be sure about coatingthe whole car.

At that temp just do a small area. You need to work fast in the Warmer/humid temps. It will flash quick. CQ’UK’ was designed originally for cooler/damper climates like the ‘UK’. I used it on cars in Florida, but had to do little areas at a time.
