Intro to GYEON quartz Q2 Mohs

[The Guz]

I have some left over Syncro. Is it ok to apply it on chrome trim/grill or anywhere else? I don`t want it to go to waste. I would apply it to my wheels but I already have Gyeon Rim on it already.

I am not Jeff but I applied it to every surface other than trim, glass and wheels on my dad`s car. So the plastic chrome and the brushed aluminum trim around the glass received a nice coat of Syncro.

Thanks for posting this info, Jeff. It`s great to see gyeon providing meaningful info on where their products are situated in the line.

What is the necessity of doing 2 layers of Mohs, and what is the consequence of only doing a single layer?

Thank you!

MOHS is a PHPS (Silazane) based coating. By nature the layer of material will be "thinner" than a highly concentrated SiO2 based coating, however it does not shrink! That is very important! So 2 layers of MOHS is best. A single layer will result in less protection (the ability of the coating layer to withstand penetration from UV and chemical damage) and durability, but still function.

Certainly! It is hard to say what the durability will look like however, but it will certainly perform.

So you can apply Mohs Base Layer and Skin Layer on All Surfaces other than the rubber and unpainted plastic trim pieces?

Example
Painted Panels
Painted Plastic Trim (the for show fake vents on a stinger hood)
Chrome Painted Plastic (Dark Chrome on a Stinger GT Grille and Mirrors)
and the Glass (Wouldnt use Gyeon View Instead for this?)

Just cant use it on plastic and rubber panels for which you`d use Gyeon Trim?

Thanks new to this trying to decide what to do ... I have a Black Kia Stinger (Hence the confusion about painted vs unpainted plastic bits)

The only time I have seen streaking happen with SYNCRO is when the Q2 SKIN product is applied to heavy. It wants to be applied in a light to moderate amount of product. I tested going on way too light and way too heavy, and when I went on heavy I could get it to be a bit hard to remove. It would look fine to the naked eye like all excess product was removed but under an inspection light I could see remaining product. I always use a handheld light when removing coatings for this exact reason.

Is it an older bottle of Mohs (clear bottle) or a newer (frosted bottle)?

Hey Jeff, I applied the Gyeon Syncro combo to my new vehicle yesterday. VERY pleased with the outcome. I quickly realized that if Skin wasn`t removed immediately that some streaking did occur. As a result, I have an area of streaking on the hood. How would you recommend correcting the streaks? Should I strip that area and start over completely with Mohs and Skin? Is the Gyeon Polish enough to strip the coating for another go round?

Again, Very happy with how the car turned out overall, would just like to fix the small area that streaked.

Thanks!
Matt

Just in case Jeff does not see your message.

What you are seeing are high spots. Give the polish a try on those areas and re-coat them. You will essentially be starting all over.

Thanks for the input Guz.

I dealt with a couple of high spots during the coating process but these streaks are different. They`re darker spots where it appears too much product might have initially been applied.

Over my lunch hour I worked a microfiber over the area with a little more elbow grease. This seemed to help, even 18 hours after the Skin application.

Cheers!
