Wouldn't adding a coat of glass on your car weigh it down considerably?

Ah, no. The coating is a liquid ceramic glass coating that is applied and dries/hardens. Total amount applied in this case was 30 ml. In weight, probably less than 12 ounces. The layer produced is about 1/1000 of an inch thick.

Check it out online, its pretty cool technology that protects your paint and looks good. Its a win-win

Is there such a thing as too shiny? Looks amazing, almost unreal.
I live in east TN close to Knoxville and also have a 2013 Firestorm FR-S.
If I may ask, how much did this cost?

Prices start at $695. Depending on how much paint correction is needed it could go up. I had a lot of swirls and of course they fixed all those before product application.

Holy balls that is shiny. God my WRB would look sooooo good with that.

The car is shiny because of the paint correction!

For less the $250 you can purchase your own PC7424XP, Polish, Wax...etc and teach yourself how to paint correct. The investment is well worth it.

$700 for a paint correction is INSANE!

:) Nice....I considered C Quartz finest as well after I bought my FRS....The detail shop who does it in Honolulu wanted $1200.00.:eyebulge:
I asked him how long does this last and he said 2 yr warranty....I went with another detail shop and got Opticoat Pro instead for $395.00....Not much paint correction since my car was a little over a month old when I had it applied....The 5 yr warranty is why I chose Optimum Opticoat Pro....The detail shop I went to now is a authorized installer for CQuartz Finest.... ;)

True. But without the proper tools and experience one can't replicate the results.
