How to Apply:

  1. Surface Prep: Start with a clean, dry surface. Wipe down with DIY Detail Panel Prep or C6 Adhesion Promoter Polish (APP).

  2. Apply Coating: Wearing gloves in a well-ventilated area, apply several drops to the included applicator pad. Work in circular motions on small sections (e.g., a front fender).

  3. Dwell: Allow the coating to dwell 2–5 minutes, depending on temperature and humidity, until it transitions from liquid to an oil-slick appearance.

  4. Level: When ~50% of the surface clears, lightly wipe with a Level One Towel. If dragging occurs, wait 1 minute, then finish leveling.

  5. Buff: Use a Freebird 400 towel to remove high spots and achieve a flawless, glass-like finish.

  6. Post-Application Care: Vehicle can be driven after 1 hour. Wash with DIY Detail Incredible Suds or Rinse Less Wash after 3 days.
