Greetings
I am preparing to apply two coats of CQuartz UK 3.0 and two coats of CQuarts SiC. My car has 1,050 miles on it, and has been washed and waxed twice since taking delivery in early May.
I'm prepared to buy car strip soap to remove oils and residue, I also plan on buying a car IPA solution and iron removal solution, per professional instruction videos seen on YouTube. Once that is done, I will do a one-step correction using a DA polisher, then apply the ceramic coating.
One question I can't seem to figure out is whether or not I will need to use a tar removal solution. Given how new my car is and how little miles are on it, is worth spending the $15-$20 on a bottle of tar removal?
Also, I'm curious if anyone has any recommendations on tire shine. I've always found tire shine to be a pain to apply, I'm curious if anyone has had any luck on an easy to use options that doesn't sling grease after applying.
Any other advice for first time DIY ceramic coat, I'm all eyes & ears. Thanks
