Ceramic Coated my Audi - Clio is next

A month ago I decide to ceramic coat my Audi as a tester before doing the Clio. Results are pretty good.

For those wanting details....

I snow foamed the car using AngelWax Fastfoam, then used Iron X to decontaminate. Then washed using BriteMax pH balanced shampoo, followed by Chemical Guys clean slate. I then dried the car off using a pet dryer. I then used Meguiars 205 finishing polish using a CarPro Gloss Pad. Wiped the whole car down using CarPro Eraser and then used CarPro C-Quartz CQUK edition, single coat application. Let this dry for 12 hours and then went over with CarPro C-Quartz reload.

I didnt have the bottle to wet sand a new car to take the orange peel out, otherwise I think it would look awesome if i did.

I will be doing the same for the Clio soon so will add some photos when thats done.

For those wanting photos....

The dry pics are just after the ceramic coat so its still drying and the wet pics are after 1 month and approx. 800 miles.

Will take some pics after 3 months and 6 months to see if it does genuinely last as long as some premium waxes. If I have done everything correctly, then it should last a couple of years as a daily driver. I found that RaceGlaze 55 lasted anywhere from 3 to 6 months.
 
Looks very slick moktabe. Will probably last years and years provided its not driven much and out of the sun.

Was considering using CSL, but as this was my first time, getting it wrong with CSL would mean some serious compounding as I believe its much harder coating than the C-Quartz.
