    Cquartz UK 3.0 topped with GLISS - Corrected and Coated 2018 Aston Martin DB11

    Cquartz UK 3.0 topped with GLISS - Corrected and coated 2018 Aston Martin DB11


    A brief rundown on this vehicle,

    I picked it up in late December, and the dealer was told to not touch the paint. Once I took delivery the car was hand clayed and decontaminated.

    Due to weather and my work schedule I did not have time to correct the paint but applied 2 coats of classic on the vehicle.

    Why?

    A few reasons,
    - I wasn’t sure how much I would actually be driving it till I knew I would have time for a correction in the spring (in my line of work, I get a few months off April-June)
    - my other vehicles are coated so coating this vehicle will keep my wash routine simple.
    - I like the protection it gives

    - I have only put 100 miles on it since December

    Please note: I’m not a professional and strictly do this for fun / hobby.


    Cut to.......


    Carpro announces UK 3.0

    This was the perfect time to correct and coat

    List of products used:

    Griots 21 Boss
    Griots 18 Boss
    Griots 3’

    Menzerna
    -400
    -2500
    -3800

    Carpro Essence

    Various Griots, Lake Country, chemical guys pads

    Carpro eraser
    Carpro Leather coating
    Carpro Fabric coating
    Carpro Dlux
    Carpro Cquartz UK 3.0
    Carpro GLISS


    Back in December the car was decontaminated with:

    Griots clay bar
    Griots Clay lube
    Carpro Trix
    Carpro Iron X
    some goof off ( to remove some of the glue left on the car from the factory protective wrap)
    The glass was also polished and coated with Carpro flyby30


    Notes on UK 3.0
    - looks great
    - more grabby the Classic
    -less grabby the the prior version of UK
    - flashing for me was around a minute to a minute 30



    Process ( see video)

    Tuesday:
    wash the vehicle

    Wednesday & Thursday:
    Correct the paint and apply essence

    Friday:
    Apply 2 coats of UK 3.0
    Apply leather, fabric and Dlux coatings

    Saturday:
    apply 2 coats of Gliss
    Apply Reload (YES, I know reload is not necessary when using GLISS, but what the hell, might as well)

    Anyway, see attached video showing the process and the final outcome.

    I`m certain you did a more professional job than many who are paid for similar work.

    Nice video!

    Awesome job on an awesome car. The rewards would have been stunning on a darker car, but never the less, it came out beautiful.
