CQ UK
Blackfire Crystal coat - Great stuff, easy to use
PBL - Great stuff, easy to use
DP - great stuff - easy to use
Gloss coat - (helped Roshan put on his car) Easy to use Looked good (but only saw it for an hour)

Will do review
 
Honestly, I haven't used one! I'd like to try opti-lens first, as my new headlights are already looking a bit tired.
Haven't tried one because I don't have a DA. If i was going to use a paint coating, id like to correct my paint first.

I'd be more than happy to do a review! Good luck!

Polish Angel Cosmic - super simple to apply and buff off. Incredible shine and protection left behind. Can be applied to black trim without staining - high spots wipe off with no effort
 



1) I would like to try Black Fire Crystal Coat
I purchased a kit a few months ago.
I haven't tried it yet because I can get Lazy at times and have a fear for failure.
I will be applying it within the next few weeks....definitely before winter.
2) I will agree to a review BUT prefer only prizes #2 and #3 since I already have the Paint Coat Waiting. I would think prize #1 is the Grand Prize anyway. (Is that against the rules Paul?)
 
PBL v1 paint coating - super easy to use
OC 2.0 - I know it is discontinued, but I still have a few boxes hanging around. Love the durability.
Sonus Ion Paint Coating - Easy on, easy off. Really glossy
Wolf's Hard Body - Super slick!
 
Never tried any coatings with the fear of not doing a proper maintaince wash and messing it up where I would have to polish it out and start all over . I have only read into the bad reviews of people apply it and have problems remove it or buffing it out. I would like to try the ones offered in the contest and will be glad to do a review .
thanks for the chance
 
Ameriarmour (Americana Car Care) - Easy to use. Can be used on glass, headlights, trim, wheels. Gives a great look. Makes washing easier. Very good slickness.

DP Glass Coating - User friendly. Great durability. Great sheeting ability in the rain.

PBL Wheel Coating - A must have. Again user friendly. Wheel cleaning made easy with just soap and water.

Opti-Lens - Used this on a few headlights and it's a must have. Hard to beat the durability of it compared to a traditional sealant.

DP Tire Coating - Although my tires had issues with it staying on with the mold wax release it still offers a great look. It's a tough/durable coating as I found it when removing it.
 
I have never used a coating I do use optimum products, been wanting to try opti-glass and opti-lens. Nice give a way.B)
 
I've tried CQUK, and ended up polishing it off. It darkened my tinted clearcoat to the point if making it look like single staged paint. It wasn't user friendly imo.

Also tried the DGloss product and found it really easy and incredibly user friendly. The longevity was about 1.5 years.
Ive not tried any optimum coating, and so far I've gone back to sealants. Maybe the optimum product would bring me back.
 
I've never used a coating but Gloss Coat is actually on my short list.

My co-worker has a yellow 2009 Corvette he is letting me detail soon and he wants everything done, this would be a great opportunity.

I would gladly so a review!
 
I've also never used a coating but I would very much like to try Gloss Coat. I use and love Optimum products: ONR, ONRWW, Opti-Clean, and OCW. Winning some coating would give me an excuse to clay and polish the car.
 
Never tried any coating mainly because of the price.
I would go with opti coat since it's the first I ever saw and read about.
Car i would use for review would be a coin flip between my ibiza white b8 a4 and celestial blue mazdaspeed3
 
I have tried Pinnacle Black Label and like it pretty well Only used it one time about a month ago. So far it looks good.
Last year during the 9 week giveaway I won the Gtechniq Crystal Lacquer and it lasted about 8 months and developed a film over the paint and I had to strip it off and used a wax for now.
Will write a review and would love to try it out.
 
I've been using PBL v.1. I like the easy application. This was the first coating I have ever tried. I have been thinking about buying the V.2 but if I win this it will go on my Mothers car. Her car sits outside and Opti-Coat sounds like a good coating to try.
 
DP paint coat. Not what i expected. Short life span :(
DP glass coat. 10/10 . Glass never looked or repeled the elements better.
DP wheel coat 10/10. The real deal for wheels. MAMMOTH DURABILITY. And just soap & water to clean them.
 
Sweet giveaway.

First coating (not sure if you can call it that) was HD Nitro Seal. Looks beautiful, super glossy. Maintenance washes were a breeze, vehicle stayed cleaner between washes, protection was great, and was still going strong after a year. Only drawback was the application. Wasn't the easiest thing I've applied and any high spots were a real bugger to knock down.

Second coating I used was Pinnacle Black Label V.1. Looks were good, but didn't blow me away. Application could not have been easier and I love that you get several applications out of a bottle. Can't comment on longevity as it was mainly other people's cars I applied it to and the vehicle of my own that I applied it to I no longer have.


I'm up for trying any other coatings. My GTO would appreciate it ;-)
 
I've dabbled with a few coatings. Always excited to try new ones.

CarPro CQuartz - Great product. Easy application and great shine and durability. I've done countless customer's cars with the classic formula.
CarPro CQuartz UK - Another one of my favorites. Just a bit trickier to apply in during the warmer parts of the year.
Pinnacle Black Label Paint Coating V1 - Had a little issue with high spots at first. Luckily I was able to level them. I like it now that I'm used to the application. Hoping to try V2 soon.
Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Surface Coating - My go to coating for wheels and glass.
BLACKFIRE Crystal Coat Paint Coating - A little tacky to apply, similar to CQuartz UK. Excellent product though. Nothing a decent coating veteran can't handle.
GTechniq C1 - Similar to CQuartz UK in application. Even the bottle feels the same. Can be tricky to apply but still an excellent product. Have noticed 1.6 years of durability with no loss of beading.
Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 - Easy to apply and great protection, but I have found it to get contaminated a little easily on cars kept outdoors. Nothing a Nanoskin mitt decon can't handle.
