CQuartz Finest Reserve

[JibSTir13]

Have any of you had CQuartz Finest Reserve applied to you car? I haven't found any reviews of it in the forum, or online, just some youtube videos.

CarPro has two new products: Reserve (more expensive) and Professional (replaces Finest). I was planning on having CQuartz Finest applied, but it no longer appears to be an option in my area.

The difference in cost between the two is pretty steep, about $1,000.

Would be great to hear from those of you who have seen either, or has one of these coatings applied to your car.

From what I was told by the installer, Reserve increases the shine/depth/luster of Finest, and is tougher/lasts longer.

Mine is being stripped of the Finest and having the Reserve applied as we speak.

When I return home, I'll be able to give my personal opinion as to if the extra cash is worth it.

Had Reserve applied just under a month ago.

I have no previous coating experience, but can say the car shines like no other vehicle I've had before (which received regular clay and wax treatments performed by myself (i.e. non-professional)).

Will try to get some pics up over this long weekend.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts about how it compares to Finest.

Just a teaser from my detailer..

Looks like the reserve is competing with modesto

Would seem that way wouldn't it?

Okay... so, it's been a few days and we had some rain also.

I can absolutely say the Reserve is glossier and easier to clean than the Finest.

Both are very noticeable.

If I was in a different situation, would I have had the car re-cut, the Finest removed, and the Reserve Installed.... no.

If I was doing a coating anyway, would I pony up for the Reserve... NO question, absolutely.
