looking to go back and try a coating

[asalesagent912]

So 3 years ago i tried a coating for the first time.
I tried cquartz uk. After 2 years i could see it wearing down so i polished and went back to waxing and sealants.
I did like the the way water beaded and sheethed however i didnt like the feel of the paint. just my OCD. i like the
feeling of slick paint. so now i was thinking of trying another coating or trying cquartz again but this time using reload more often. I was looking at gtechniq cerum light and exo. It is more expensive than cquartz but willing to try if its worth it.
Any thoughts or insite on these or others? thanks

Serum is not as slick as mckees.But a outstanding coating for 64.00.

Sure...Some Coatings are not the
"slickest feeling" of LSPs out there.

But, perhaps, "feeling slick" shouldn't
be placed so high up on the Coatings'
most desirable characteristics list.

•Instead, IMO, their ability to:
-provide a fairly durable, and a rather
tenacious protective film-layer;
-shed dirt and other contamination so
very well (vehicles stay cleaner; longer)...

really deserves to be ranked higher
on the Coatings' characteristics list.

I think the feeling that is not slick leads to the extreme beading and sheeting. Anyone who has tried PNS knows whAt I'm talking about.

Agree with Bob on this one. There are several coatings that are thick and durable that are slightly grabby. This "undesirable" characteristic goes away when topped with things like Cure, etc.

would you say it is more slick than cquartz? If you have used that one

I understand slick doesnt make it better, i definitely want something with good protection and good sheathing and also feels slick. i didn't have a problem with cquartz. i just didnt like the grabby feel it has. like i said i may go it it again and just use reload more often. thanks for you input.

You don't like the fact that CQuartz
is not the slickest feeling Coating out
there---even to the point of it feeling
grabby---and I suppose this is why
you say you will use Reload more often.

•However, IMO:
-"Toppers" may add some slickness;
but, in return: changes the functionality;
and, what I consider to be much more
important characteristics of a Coating.

{Note: I do realize that this doesn't seem
to matter to, or bother, some people in the
same fashion as it does me.}

your saying it changes the functionality, i was under the assumption that toppers help the coating and give that slick feel
