    Amazing Product as long as you do the work!
    First of all, I have a 2018 Audi Q7. So, the paint isn’t exactly new. I’ve seen a lot of reviews on what it looks like after applied initially. Well, I applied this on 12/23/23. It is now 01/04/24 and this is after the first wash. So, you get the almost 2 weeks after pics.I will say it does a phenomenal job. Even washing is easier. My microfiber mit feels like it glides over the paint and what used to take lots of scrubbing comes off easily now. I use a blower to dry and water just beads off so easily.You must do the prep work like everyone else says. Temp ranged from 45-50 degrees. I went…1. Wash2. Iron remover3. Clay bar4. PolishAll on the first day. Next day, in the garage, I applied the 50/50 alcohol/water to remove all other contaminants and then applied the carbon force. It was pretty easy. MAKE SURE you use multiple microfiber towels when buffing off! At minimum 3. They will get excess on them and make it harder when buffing off. Here’s where I would change one thing. I watched multiple videos from Chemical Guys wondering when to apply the 2nd coat. All I found was one video saying 3 hours. DON’T! I did and that was the hardest part. Wait at least 12 hours to apply the 2nd coat. I was able to apply the 2nd coat when I did it just was extremely hard to buff off. Very tacky. Waited until the next day and then did all the rest of the glass. Gave it basically 3 days to cure and this is what you see. You obviously don’t have to wait that long. But, I had the time being it was Christmas and everyone was at our house. (Yes, I wanted to be outside while all the craziness was going on inside) I used about 3/4 of the bottle.Hope this helps someone. It is a great product. You just have to have the time and patience

    Thoroughly cleaned the car and buffed out the paint with chemical guy paint polish and applied this ceramic coat. It went in easily and the end results were stunning. Extremely pleased with the shine and finish. Would highly recommend this product for a professional looking ceramic coat finish. As with any ceramic coating, I would encourage the user to get to know the product and do some testing before going live on your car as it does take some knowhow to get a professional looking end result. Not the cheapest product on the market but like most things in life you get what you pay for.

    This product does a great job protecting your paint. I've had it on my car for about a year now. Easy to wipe the car down with SO2 spray. Nothing sticks to it. You can wipe dried bird poop off with a dry microfiber, as an example.

    Application is easy. This product goes on nice and wipes off haze-free with ease. It's a basic wax on wax off style of product - easy to avoid high spots. You can't go wrong with Carbon Force. Thanks Chemical Guys for all your quality products.

    Longtime user of CG products. This is the 1st time using Carbon Force but have coated many cars and trucks. Cars paint is in excellent shape. Performed standard 4 stage correction with wash, clay bar, de iron, and polish before application. Car sat in the garage for 2 days to allow proper flashing. Carbon Force is easy to apply and looks great when done and set. Sheeting action is good, but that is where the good ends. This stuff is soft! There is no real protection as these Ceramic coatings are known and used for. We are in Florida with the harsh sun, extreme weather, and don't forget the bugs. The last coating (Color and Drive) that was used on this car performed well for almost 3 years before naturally eroding as they will. The Carbon Force coating is less than a month old and I literally had to polish the bugs off the front fascia after a road trip! It was almost as if the bug guts were embedded in the coating. When I polished with CG V36 it was apparent that the coating was removed as well with the polish. Totally unacceptable results from a top shelf company with this price point. Emailed CG directly with no response. I will go to Geyon or Adam's (hearing good things about Car Pro also). At least it will be easy to re coat the car as this stuff comes off easy. I will not recommend this product.

    I own a detail shop & have worked with many different ceramic coatings throughout the years. This coating was special requested by the customer. The installation was use friendly, and the level of gloss & slickness is out of this world!! For a second later wait 1-2 hours between applications for the best bond. They give you plenty enough coating to do a large Truck, SUV with 2 coats
