Why use Gtechniq C1 Crystal Lacquer and C2 Liquid Crystal? 

C1 has been independently proven in the world's most respected weathering facility. You can see in the YouTube video below, it offers the best gloss retention of any other product tested.  Over a simulated run of 3 years in Arizona sunlight, a C1 coated panel lost half the amount of gloss than its next best competitor, and a third less gloss than the average score for all other products tested. 

As well as gloss retention C1 Crystal Lacquer is extremely durable, as it actually becomes the functional surface of a car’s paintwork. Also scratch resistant, C1 forms a crystalline film which is extremely hard, this characteristic makes it effective at preventing minor scratching from poor wash technique on relatively soft automotive paint. 

C1 coated panels have been tested against uncoated panels, as well as high-end carnauba waxes and polymer sealants.  

On average, panels coated with Gtechniq C1, exhibited 50 percent less swirl marks than those coated with waxes or left uncoated.
