Ram 1500 CquartzUK

[trp3383]

Hey Guys! My name is Ted and this is the first time posting here. I've been on the forum for about a month looking at all the work you guys have been doing and wanted to join the party! This is my first ceramic coating I've done.

I started off with a full decon of all paintwork, wheels and barrels using Griots iron remover and clay bar.

Followed that up with a 1 step paint correction using Griots Boss correcting cream and boss microfiber pads.

I used a Astro hand light because I can never see all the imperfections on a white vehicle.

After I got the paint to about 90% without needing a 2 step correction, I used Gtechniq panel wipe for a final wipe down before coating.

I coated everything including the wheels with CquartzUK and then topped that with Carpro Gliss. I let the truck sit for a few days in my garage then I hit it with a mixture of distilled water, carpro reload, and carpro ech2o.

It's been cloudy and raining the last few days so I haven't been able to get any sun shots, but hopefully tomorrow I can.

Nice, looking forward to more photos. Did you use cquartz uk 3.0? In any case, the original formula has worked well for me.

I used the original, didn't even know there was a 3.0 until after.

Well $60 or so for a bottle of cquk is worth it if it lasts a year at least! I coated my wheels initially and now they never seem very dirty. Or I wash them way too often haha.

Welcome to the forum. Looks great. As time passes, you'll find the coating was a very good move, sure makes maintenance a lot easier, and your truck will be looking great for a very long time.
