Armour Quartz Coating
Regular price
$77.99
Industry Leading 66% Solids 99.9% Purity Quartz Coating
Armour Quartz Coating is the new standard in ceramic protection, with a solids content of 66% (SiO2) at a purity of 99.9%, Armour Coating leads the way in consumer-available protective coatings in only a single layer!
The advanced formula of Armour Quartz Coating offers extreme chemical resistance and a level of gloss that is off the charts. The user-friendly application process ensures that even those with limited experience can achieve professional results, and the high water contact angles make maintaining the surface of your vehicle easier and safer. The increased resistance to stains, bugs, sap, etching, and scratches means that your vehicle will be protected from a variety of potential threats, and the exceptionally slick-to-the-touch surface helps repel dirt and maintain a clean appearance.
The versatility of Armour Quartz Coating is unparalleled, as it can be safely applied to all painted, chrome, and plastic trim surfaces. With a real-world protection of 3+ years in a single layer, the coating provides a long-term solution for protecting your vehicle and keeping it looking its best. Whether you are a seasoned professional or a first-time user, Armour Quartz Coating is the ideal choice for anyone looking to enhance the appearance and protection of their vehicle.
What's Included:
- 30ml Armour Quartz Coating w/ Dropper Top
- (1) Microfiber Coating Application Pad
- "How To" Direction Card
Application Guide
Precautions:
Shake well before use.
Avoid applying in direct sunlight.
Wear skin protection (nitrile gloves recommended).
Wear respiratory protection in enclosed areas.
Wear eye protection during application.
Always test in small area before full application to determine optimal flash time.
Temperature affects timing: Cold conditions extend removal time to 2-3 minutes; hot conditions reduce removal time to 1-2 minutes.
Shelf life of 12 months when sealed; use within 90 days of opening for optimal performance.
Surface Preparation:
Critical: Proper preparation determines coating success - even the best coating cannot compensate for inadequate prep work!
- Decontamination Phase: Clean paint surface using Armour Detail Supply Decon Soap and Iron Remover, then eliminate embedded contamination with clay bar or synthetic clay mitt.
- Paint Correction (if needed): Address swirl marks or scratches through polishing to minimize surface defects and maximize gloss potential.
- Final Prep: Apply Armour Detail Supply Panel Prep to eliminate polishing oils and residue. For unpainted surfaces, repeat this step twice to ensure complete surface cleanliness.
Ready for Armour Quartz Coating application!
Application Process:
- Applicator Preparation: Prime applicator with 3 lines of coating for initial use; subsequent applications require minimal product - less is more with this high-solids formula.
- Panel-by-Panel Application: Work 1-2 panels at a time. Create an "X" pattern initially, then outline all panel edges for even distribution. Use small overlapping circular motions (similar to wax application) ensuring uniform coverage. Allow 1-3 minutes setup time (typically 90 seconds) based on temperature and humidity. Monitor for uniform "sweat beads" or light haze formation before removal.
- Removal Technique: Using short-nap, pearl weave towel, level coating with small circular motions removing 95%+ on first pass. If product resists removal, reduce setup time for subsequent panels. Switch to plush microfiber for final leveling using straight-line motions. Inspect for streaks or high spots (appearing as cloudy or dark areas).
- Applicator Maintenance: Flip applicator to fresh side when halfway through vehicle or when applicator begins curing.
- Towel Management: Use fresh towel surfaces for each panel to prevent recontamination.
Layering Options: Armour Quartz is designed as single-layer protection, but additional layers are possible. Allow 1-2 hours between layers. If applying PHOBIC over Armour Coating, wait 1-2 hours between applications.
Aftercare Protocol:
Initial Cure: Allow 4-hour minimum cure time before any contact.
Cure Protection: After 4 hours, apply Armour Detail Supply AMPLIFY or Ceramic Spray Sealant to protect coating during extended cure period.
Chemical Avoidance: No washing or chemical exposure for 24 hours minimum.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many vehicles can you coat with the 30ml bottle?
The 30ml bottle provides sufficient coverage for one complete vehicle in most cases. Coverage varies by vehicle size:
- Small/Medium Cars (Sedans, Hatchbacks): Complete coverage with product remaining
- Large SUVs: Full coverage possible, may require careful application technique
- Pickup Trucks: Complete coverage achievable due to high 66% solids content
- Multiple Vehicles: Typically covers 1.5-2 small vehicles or 1 large vehicle
The high solids content means less product waste and more efficient coverage compared to lower-concentration coatings.
Can multiple layers be applied?
Yes, Armour Quartz can be layered for enhanced protection. However, it's engineered as a single-layer solution providing maximum protection without requiring multiple applications.
If layering:
- Wait 1-2 hours between applications
- Follow same preparation and application procedures
- Monitor flash times as subsequent layers may cure faster
- Single layer provides 3+ years protection; additional layers extend durability marginally
Note: The 66% solids formula delivers performance equivalent to multiple thin layers in a single application.
Can Armour Coating be applied to black plastic trim?
Absolutely - Armour Quartz is specifically formulated for multi-surface compatibility. Application on black plastic trim provides:
Benefits for Trim:
- Prevents UV degradation and fading
- Restores natural black appearance
- Creates protective barrier against environmental contamination
- Maintains factory-finish appearance (not artificial gloss)
Application Considerations:
- Apply to clean, unfaded trim for best results
- If trim shows fading, coating will lock in current appearance
- Use same application technique as paint surfaces
- No special preparation required beyond standard cleaning
Environmental Protection: During full cure period, avoid harsh chemicals, automatic car washes, and abrasive cleaning methods to ensure optimal bonding and performance.
