Carbon Force if developed using Non-Stick Technology to reduce help reduce the adhesion damaging effects of acid rain, extreme weather, bugs, sap, bird droppings, dirt, dust, and more, it all slides off with ease as the perfectly smooth surface rejects foreign contaminants with the unbelievably slippery finish of a ceramic coating. With extreme UV protection and advanced thermal resistance, Carbon Force is the perfect way to protect your car, boat, or aircraft from the harshest elements. Durable anti-scratch technology lasts up to 5 years, resisting harsh elements while providing a mirror-like shine that is super hydrophobic.

    So, my wife just bought a 2023 Mini Cooper we decided to decline their ceramic coating because it is the in my opinion excessive ($2300), after seeing this, I just would like to know how to properly layer this product.
    1- Wash with clean slate
    2- Clay bar it
    3- Carbon Force (wait 12 hours)
    4- HydroSlick (wait 3 hours)
    5- Whitelight
    6- Jet Seal
    7- White paste wax
    Would that be appropriate order? Or should I put carbon force last?

      Hi Brenda! Depending on the condition of the paintwork, it may need a multi-stage paint correct or only a light polish. Try using an Orange Hex-Logic Pad with V36 Cutting Polish as a baseline. Carbon Force should be applied to bare paint and then it can be layered with your favorite glaze, sealant, and/or wax.
