    About a month ago, I purchased Gyeon Q2 MOHS but just did not have a chance to apply it. Last week I washed the 360, then used the claybar. I then used a random orbital buffer and 3M #1 to take out any of the scratches in the clear coat. Most of all the fine scratches came out with only a few random scratches left (which were very hard to see and IMO not worth being more aggressive to remove).

    After buffing, I used reverse osmosis water to rinse off the car, careful not to leave any water spots.

    Finally yesterday, I applied the Gyeon Q2. I was afraid that I would not have enough, but after finishing the car, I actually had 1/2 bottle left.

    I am waiting the 24 hour period before applying the hardener. So far the car looks good-especially being done by a total novice.

    I was wondering "how many of F Chatters buff and detail their own car and what has been their experiences"?

    Yes! I do all my own work...


    How do you like Gyeon Q2? Ease of application? How is the depth, slickness, etc?

    Thanks!

    So far, I like it a lot. Very easy to apply, supper slick and the depth looks good. I think it is really important to prep the paint surface before using the Gyeon Q2.
