We Say

When it comes to long-lasting paint protection, we’ve found the Gtechniq Crystal Lacquer C1+ Kit to be one of the most effective combinations out there. The C1 Crystal Lacquer gives a sharp, high-gloss finish that really enhances the depth and clarity of your paintwork, while adding a highly durable layer of protection against everyday contaminants. Paired with the Gtechniq C2 Ceramic Spray Sealant, you get an extra boost in slickness, hydrophobic performance, and ease of maintenance — water just sheets straight off. 

We like that this kit works equally well for enthusiasts and professionals. The C1 base layer bonds chemically to your vehicle’s clear coat, which means it won’t just wash away like a traditional wax. The C2 spray adds that quick top-up protection, ideal for keeping your ceramic coating performing at its best between washes. For anyone serious about car detailing, ceramic coatings, and paint protection, this kit offers a straightforward way to get professional-grade results with the reassurance of a proven brand.

Description

The Gtechniq C1 Crystal Lacquer and C2 Liquid Crystal kit delivers professional grade ceramic paint protection with long lasting results and a stunning high gloss finish. Designed to work together as a two step system, this combo offers unbeatable durability, water repellency and ease of maintenance for all paint types.

Gtechniq C1 Crystal Lacquer is a crystal clear ceramic coating that chemically bonds to your vehicle’s paintwork, creating a durable and hard wearing protective layer. It enhances gloss, improves scratch resistance and protects against UV rays, oxidation, chemicals and environmental fallout. With a lifespan of up to five years, C1 offers outstanding long term protection for your car’s exterior.

Once C1 has cured, Gtechniq C2 Liquid Crystal can be applied as a top coat to add extra gloss, slickness and hydrophobic properties. C2 also makes washing and drying quicker by repelling water and contaminants. It can be used as a standalone sealant or as a maintenance topper to extend the life of the C1 coating.

How To Use

1.Only apply in temperatures 5°c and above, indoors, out of direct sunlight
2.Wear gloves provided
3.Soak the application pad with several drops of product
4.Replace the lid on the bottle and set to one side. Holding the bottle in your hand while detailing your car may promote premature curing
5.Apply in overlapping strokes to an area roughly 2ft by 2ft (60cm x 60cm)
6.Remove residue immediately with a MF1 ZeroR Microfibre Buff Cloth
7.You may need to buff the same area several times to remove residue, so use at least two MF1 cloths at any one time. Make sure you rotate the cloths quickly so that the C1 does not cure in them – this can make residue harder to remove
8.Change your application pad after 3 to 4 applications
9.If you miss removing residue and it cures fully, you should re-polish this area and reapply C1
10.As soon as you finish put your microfibres in water, wash them as soon as you can to prevent the product crystallising and making them unusable
11.Leave your vehicle indoors for 12 hours before exposing it to the elements
12.If you are applying EXO Ultra Durable Hydrophobic Coating or C2 Liquid Crystal over the C1, leave at least 4 hours before application
