Should turn out fine. Iron-x makes the paint color pop more...I'm surprised by how much more, but on such a new vehicle, it's probably not as noticeable. I'll find out on my truk.Tarspin wrote: ↑Thu Sep 14, 2017 12:05 pmI'm diving in today, unfortunately don't have the iron-x stuff or eraser so I washed with dish soap, gave it a clay barring and another wash and good wipe down. Currently working with Sonax Profiline Medium Cut High Gloss (lighter cutting stuff). After a top notch wipe down I'll apply the CQuartz. Need to make it all happen by 430pm. It'll be as good as it can be at that point and then I'll leave it in the sun to bake as much as possible. It is what it is, since the paint is new there isn't that much paint correction to deal with.Detroit wrote: We've only had the Volt for a year, but it spent 6-mos as a corporate-owned vehicle used at marketing events, etc...so it's paint was a bit more worn, but not by much. All I did was a clay, polish, iron-x rinse, wash, then eraser. Eraser apparently strips the paint of everything and prepares for the best bond possible for the CQuartz with the paint.
On my truck, the paint is flawless at the moment. I'll give it a wash, a quick iron-x rub down, another wash, then eraser and coat. I may do 3 coats on the sides for scratch protection, but we'll see...
Hopefully the dish soap washes off totally. I know some carwash soaps leave a thin residue, which screws with the adhesion of the CQuartz coating. Eraser apparently leaves the paint for real bare.
I would try wiping it down with some rubbing alcohol before coating if you don't have eraser, but that's just me.
on this color.

on correction and it turned out great.
