Carpro Reset is by far my favourite Soap, i also use Gyeon PPF wash every 3 months along with their Iron Remover. While i do love Carpro Elixir i have discovered Auto Fanatics 007 Gloss Enhancer and it has been my favourite so far

Great video as always. I personally think for people which wash their car themselves, you should have CarPro Reset, CarPro Lift CarPro Descale, a post wash detailer like Gyeon ceramic detailer and Optimum NoRinse. Maybe you can add something to clean the interior of your car like Gyeon interior detailer and CarPro Pearl (tyre plus interior dresser). Always use high quality microfibers that are dedicated for a specific task and be gentle on your cars paint work.

Hey Corey, I like to use Elixir, about once a month, as drying aid with my coated vehicles. Another great product from Car Pro. Between it being bone dry here and the peanut farmers harvesting their crops, washing once a week is a must. Good to see you guys made it through the hurricane!

Hey I am curious do you have a coating and just use Elixir to maintain ti? No reload? If so that is great news, I use Elixir for drying aid every wash ahahaha
@SlowGT3Ай бұрын
Do you recommend incorporating Elixir as part of the process of maintaining a ceramic coat (for example instead of annual use of Reload)? I find it a bit easier to use.
@SkyCarCareАй бұрын
If you prefer Elixir then most certainly I would just use the Elixir as your maintenance. Either Elixir OR Reload will achieve the same goal.

How to remove water spots from ceramic coatings. I have uk cquartz on my vehicle and i have some water spots that's not being removed. I regular do maintenance washes but still ended up getting some water spots. I've used spotless 2.0. It removed some but not all. What's the safest way to get them removed with out affecting the integrity of the coating?? Help 🙏🏻 please
@SkyCarCare Жыл бұрын
Hi Aaron, if minerals are left too long on the surface it will eventually not be able to be removed without polishing in which case you of course have to re-coat the areas polished. So, that is the LAST resort.... Try Spotless (as you already did) Next step is to try descale, if that doesn't work then Essence PLUS and if none of this works then a light polish and eraser and re-coat if it is worth that step to achieve the goals wanted.

Question: what about road salt on Cquartz? I live in Wisconsin so winters are brutal. No free flowing water outside, except for pressure wand at car washes. And that can be spotty when temps are below zero. Any ideas?
@SkyCarCare Жыл бұрын
Hi Kim, great question! I would recommend topping with CARPRO Hydrofoam before winter starts as it will help with road salt and then very important is to keep getting that road salt off as soon as possible. Using Descale during your cleaning process after winter or during washes through winter can help too.

CarPro SIC 2 coats. Wash regularly with Reset, Usually rewash again with HydroFoam. I’ve read to not apply reload to the coating due to it already being slick. Could I use elixir as another topper after paint is dry?
@SkyCarCare Жыл бұрын
Now that your CQUARTZ SiC is fully cured, you could use Reload if you wanted or Elixir, or Hydrofoam as you do currently. Personally I prefer to stick with Hydrofoam but you are perfectly fine to try Elixir or Reload and see how you like. Lots of people like to top with them. Elixir is probably the best option to use with Hydrofoam on there. -Corey

Hi Gus, that's perfect! Well... that is where you have a lot of options. Reload, Elixir, Hydrofoam, Essence PLUS... You do NOT need more than one of them but the tough part is which is best for you. You can read a lot about each on our website www.carpro-us.com but my favorite (because I like to save time) is just using Hydrofoam every few months after a Reset wash.

Hey Corey... how would you rate the Carpro Microfiber Wash mitt , between Gyeon Smoothie wash mitt and the Carpro which one do you suggest, I have a softish dark paint on my car prone to swirling. I am not getting the Microfiber Madness Delimitt here....
@SkyCarCare Жыл бұрын
Hi, thanks for the question! (Edit - just notice your comment about soft paint too) If your paint is REALLY soft and you not getting the Delimitt then get the CARPRO Merino. With regards to the Microfiber Mitts - honestly if your looking that route I cannot image why you wouldn't get the Incredimitt from Microfiber Madness (as its the innovator, original, actually made in Germany and higher quality than all others but if you can't get it where your at or for whatever reason then I would go with the CARPRO mitt over the smoothie. I just have no interest in products that are made to look like imitations of a true innovation. That may sound a little harsh and I mean no disrespect to anyone that loves it. To each their own. But those are my honest feelings on such a thing... If a company makes a product that is so far beyond the rest of the products on the market that others have to try to imitate it then the least they can do is not imitate the colors or pretend it is the same mitt when they launch said imitation. I hope that helps!
