    After wasting money on paying someone to polish truck and it not being up to my standards due to my OCD, I decided it was time to learn how to do it myself.
    Watched a bunch of vids and bought a HF DA polisher and some supplies from chemical guys, and other places.
    Spent 3 hours one steppin, Sonax perfect finish, followed up with jescar power lock then topped that with fast finish. I was shocked I tell you. Huge difference.

    Can’t comment on durability yet. Both were easy to apply. I do think Gliss is completely unnecessary and cannot see any advantage. Carpro has released a new version of it. Seems GTechniq doesn’t release dirt and grime as easy as the Cquartz.

    Thank you for the reply. One more question, so the Cquartz doesn't require any additional coating after it is applied?

    Thanks

    No, it does not. I would use a ceramic booster periodically. I bought Gliss just to try but will skip going forward.
