Gtechniq C1 Crystal Lacquer Reviews

Fantastic product. More forgiving on delicate paints than CSL and the gloss does not disappoint!

Very easy application, unparalleled gloss outstanding product!

Incredibly easy to work with as long as you take your time. We found its best if done by two people. Adding a coat of EXO over it makes for an incredible shine. Our customers love the results!

As long as you follow the directions carefully you will love this product. In my mind traditional waxes are obsolete. Like others have said it really intensifies the color of your car where it has been applied

I applied C1 30ml ( one coat and had some product left) on a Pearl White 2004 350Z. The Pearl White paint made it difficult to see what was going on with the product but, everything came out looking great. The product goes on in a nice thick coat and finishes with a nice shine. I has a nice deep, liquid glass look to it. I was not as easy as the Exo to apply and you had to pay very close attention to the rate of cure and make sure you buffed the excess off. I applied it in 85-90 degree, humid weather in Atlanta, Ga and it flashed very quickly so you had to have a quick hand to make sure it was spread nicely and the excess buffed out before it cured. The end result was everything I hoped for and the Exo went on very easily and looks fanatastic.

Used as the final coat on my recent detail. It was my first time using anything like this, so I wasn't a little paranoid when I first started, but quickly got into a rhythm. Leaves a nice slight gloss when cured. Make sure you buff really well with a clean side of your microfiber as the last step. I had a few spots I had to polish out once I took it out of the bright garage lights and saw it in the dusk sun. Hydrophobic properties are impressive and make the car much easier to clean. We shall see how long it holds up.

Have C1 with EXO on my F350. Excellent product. Especially being in New England with this horrendous weather we are having. Easy to maintain.

I never applied a coating to my car so I was a bit nervous to try C1. If you follow the instructions (preparation, application, and product removal) you will get the results promised by the product. The included pads make application easy and uniform. The slow curing time allows you to work one panel at a time, less the hood, without risk of the coating fully curing before you can level and remove the excess. In case the product does start to get tacky before you remove all of the excess you can apply a bit more which will then make the excess easy to wipe off with a microfiber towel. I recommend that you apply C1 in the late afternoon, maybe two hours before sunset, as the dusk light will better allow you to see where the product was applied and any excess that needs removal. Once fully cured the product looked great! If you try C1, and follow the .pdf instructions included in the description, I don't think that you'll be disappointed.

Easy to use if you follow the directions. Intensifies the color of the paint so its easy to see where you have applied it. Very durable, I've had it on my personal car for over 4 years and it still beads like it did on day one. When you are removing the residue, keep checking from different angles or any reside will become impossible to remove and will have to be polished off.

I really appreciate the scratch resistance, my paint has no scratches in it after 4 years with C1 applied.
