    topping UK 3.0?

    I have used UK 3.0 for years and always been quite happy but am considering trying either Quartz or SIC. I just finished applying 2 coats of UK on my new Denali pick up and am thinking of top coating. I live in aniorthern climate and do go to a car wash regularly. This is a daily driver. With the abrasion resistance of the new Quartz am I better off using this as a topper and can it be used on top of fresh (72 hours) UK? I have also ordered SIC and could use this? I also have a new Grand Cherokee Summit (black also) that occasionally sees a car wash but not as much as the Denali. I have not yer coated this truck. What, of the three coatings do you recommend? I love doing the work as I am retired and the cost is not really a cincern. Thanks and glad to be part of the group

    With regards to Dquartz it is the base layer by itself or the recommended top coats are SiC or Gliss. Give than you have UK, the recommended top coats are SiC or Gliss.

    Also don't expect a coating to do much in terms of minimizing scratches induced by a car wash. Not to mention that the abrasion will wear away the coating rather than washing it at home.
