Waiting to get my hands on Hard Body. I want a sealant for my clients cars that will last minimum 6 months, in OUR weather. That means 9 months a year.

I love the Autoglym products. I clayed my car, sealed the paint with the Super Resin Polish and than went over it with the High Definition Wax. I love the Interior Vinyl & Rubber Spray also. I think AG is definitely worth a look.

Menzerna Power Lock is an excellent quality sealant.

Anyone heard of Diamond Kote? My dealer uses that on new cars for 350 dollars. They say it's a Permanent coat

I had my BRZ coated in HARD BODY, and the effects have all but worn off 2 months later.

Also, there is no extra scratch protection. I got a scratch from a zipper lightly grazing the paint....

I'm getting it recoated in something different at the beginning of the month.

Overall, I'm pretty disappointed in it. It's shiny though....

They are going to try and show you, hey we can spray paint on a hood and wipe it right off, "nothing sticks to quantum". Yea let them do that, let them wipe it off, then have them spray the same spot again, wait 2 minutes and then have them wipe it off, and get ready to start laughing. Quantums an ok paint sealant but their sells pitch is all smoke and mirrors. Seriously you'd be just as happy applying a good paint sealant or coating yourself. An easy coating for beginners is carpro's cquartz uk edition.

Its a garbage product that doesn't do what they claim. It will last a couple months, but thats it.
