    Coated my first vehicle with UK

    I love this coating! I'm pretty new to the coating world, all I've used is Bullet Proof and wow, what a difference! Took me a few minutes to get it right but the vehicle came out great. I will try and get some pictures this weekend. Here's a shot I took tonight, few drops I placed in a bowl and allowed to cure. This stuff is just pretty to look at haha.

    Now that is interesting. I have never seen anyone cure a coating like that and see the formed crystals. Really makes me want it now. I plan to try CQ on my ride when I get some time for TLC this spring.

    Sent from my phone when I am supposed to be doing something else.

    All together it formed about the size of a nickel when you piled it up. Some of the individual ones maybe the size of a pea. Very very cool. It did confuse a customer of mine though. The picture made him think that this is how it would break down over time. He asked me.."In 2-3 years when this coating breaks down will it crystallize and cause scratches when washing or polishing?" Had to explain to him that this was scraped up out of a bowl and would never be noticeable to the eye when it did "live it's life" lol

    UK is definitely a great product! Can be a little finicky to apply, but the results are always worth it.

    Since you didn't post any pics, I will share some of mine that have been treated with UK












    Got gloss?

    Beautiful work as always Zach! It's been crappy lighting by the time my wife gets home from work for any good photos. Hopefully this weekend I can get some.

    Got lucky... happened to be finishing up in the evening as the sun was going down which made for great sun stars on the paint one of my favorite pics... especially since it is white paint
