Tug Bankert Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Clear coat restorer is an amazing innovative product. I have been using it since it came out. I did my first full vehicle a few weeks ago. A block 2010 Mazda CX-9 with heavy oxidation and scratches. I knew that CCR filled in and covered scratches but the percentage that it covered was way more than I ever would have thought. The really amazing thing is that I would have had to do a paint correction to restore the paint and with not enough clear coat to do that I would have produced decent results but removed even more clear leading to failure. The amount of money this saves in not having to repaint or even spending hours doing a pc is mind boggling. This would be a great way to sell it to your customers. If you haven't tried this product I would recommend buying it and doing so. There is a learning curve as it takes much practice to begin to master it. It reacts differently to each vehicle it is applied to. I will be coating the ccr in a few days with Pro plus and I cant wait for 30 days after to see the results. Let me know if any one has and ccr stories or info to share. Thanks Ron@Optimum and paulgyro 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulgyro Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I'll have to try it! I recently purchased a black 2010 Lexus GX 460 with heavy defects. CCR might just be the ticket! How well does it fill in rick chips that aren't all the way to the base coat? How well does it hold up over time? Does it have UV protection?

Tug Bankert Posted August 28, 2021 Author Share Posted August 28, 2021 It's clear coat just like what is already on the car from factory. It permanently bonds to the existing clear. It does not fill in where white is visible or there is no clear from chips. Make sure you follow prep procedures or you will have a big mess on your hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Good points, Tug - Clear Coat Restorer restores existing clear, it does not replace clear that's already gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulgyro Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Thanks for the feedback. So if I fill the rock chips with CCR won't bond to the new paint? I'm assuming it would just like factory clear coat does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 it should bond to new paint (clear coat IS paint, only without pigment and with anti-oxidizing characteristics). paulgyro 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
