Re: Gtechniq....unboxing and test
I've only use Opti-coat is it applied the same? I have a customer I'm doing paint correction for Friday and he bought this to have me apply for him.

Once you have your surface as free as possible from marks, stains, and defects saturate you cotton applicator and spread an even thin coat.
Allow to set and remove. This video goes in detail of application.

Re: Gtechniq....unboxing and test
The gentleman in the 1st video says something to the effect of....don't hold the bottle in your hand while applying because the C1 will cure because of the body heat?
I have never heard that before.

Re: Gtechniq....unboxing and test
If it cures at 98.6 Fahrenheit...we are in trouble down here in Texas, where it is frequently over 100 degrees

Re: Gtechniq....unboxing and test
The Gtechniq finish looks great. EXO will really knock your socks off. It leaves the best tactile feel of any sealant. One giant word of caution though with EXO. Last week I had an emergency engagement that I didn't have time for a full detail wash at home. So I headed to the local touch less car wash for a cheap wash only. It nearly removed all of the EXO sealant layer on the car. I know it had to be the wash soap as the layer was still intact where the automatic sprayer could not reach. On Gtechniq's website (in the blog section) they warn about avoiding high alkaline wash solutions and to use them to remove EXO. Gtechniq used Iron-X as the example high alkaline wash but I never thought the automatic wash was strong enough to nearly completely remove it though. Sure I expected some to be removed due to the strong solutions but it was way stronger than I ever expected. The EXO layer was about four months old and had already undergone 8-9 washes with Megs Gold Class without any problems.
