Crystal Serum Light

Gtechniq CSL is one of the best and easiest to use consumer ceramic coatings on the market. Applying the coating is an absolute breeze allowing the installer to work around a vehicle in a relatively short amount of time. After the coating is cured the gloss is stunning. Water sheds right off making cleaning way easier. I got a 50ml bottle for a 2026 Toyota 4Runner and used just a bit more than half of the bottle. I coated all the jambs, paint, wheel faces and side glass. The windshield received a dedicated glass coating. CSL is still one of the best ceramic coatings available to the average Joe.

I'm one that is always trying new wars etc for cars so I can take care of this non-VOC paints they use now which pale compared to car paints of old for longevity. Prepped my car, washing, stripping, polishing, the works. Since we as nonprofessionals cannot buy the good stuff we are relegated to buying lesser products. I had gtechniqs applied professionally to wife's outback because dealer grade stuff sucked (never buy the ceramic package offered, it's not as hard and is cheaper grade and scratches easily etc. After seeing how her car looked, I wanted to do something to lessen my job caring for my own car ('17 Legacy) i bought this because reviews are generally stellar for g tech. The CSL along with EXO v5 was a simple and very easy process (outside of the prep needed to get to application point). The CSL looked great. I bought the 1oz csl and 1.7 oz EXO. I wish I had bought the larger CSL but I did not coat my front grill area because of the rock chips as I may want to refresh that first. It's hard to know how much to use but as time goes you figure it out. The dropper looks like it has peyronies and it caused me to miss the pad a couple times(the applicator is small, 2-3 fingers at most but effective especially given amount used). CSL is better than C1 from the time between finishing application to being able to apply EXO (2 hrs for CSL, 4hrs for C1). NOTE: if they have them, buy extra application pads in case you drop yours on the ground. Also buy some new and good removal rags as you will need them. I am very happy with results on my car and given that you can refresh the EXOv5 in a couple years without much trouble thus means you can save the CSL from degradation without doing all the extra work. The CSL did fill in some minor scratches but for most part you need to do well correcting. Buy a light for inspecting Buy the Panel Wipe Buy at least a 12 pack of microfiber rags, the low profile (P1) rather than fuzzy ones and mark your wet removal one with a sharpie so you know which one is which. Buy large bottle of EXO to apply 2 coats. Be aware that you will spend a few hundred if you purchase window ceramic and polishes and residue remover BUT if you are detail oriented this system is hands down easy af. I am grateful the GTechniq makes a consumer grade product. I included the products I used but as of yet I have not bought the trim coating for my black rubber straps. I'll wait until full cured so I can tape off safely

Superb product to use after gtechniq crystal serum light. This is a great hydrophobic layer to put on after your ceramic coating. I’ve used this on a handful of vehicles and sets of wheels and it creates an unmatched level of protection and ease of cleaning. I coated this car 18 months ago.

Awesome stuff. Very easy to use provided you follow the directions and do good prep work. Setup time is very forgivable. Took about 3/4 of the bottle to coat my c8. Would definitely recommend for the at home DIYer.

Ive been working with ceramic coating for over 5yrs. This is the easiest coating i have ever used. The end result is the best by far!

Used last year for my car: I did two coating to my Tesla along with EXO assuming it will add protection layer to the paint but it’s not . It’s easy to apply and its doing the job of keeping the car showroom look after every wash. Coz of the no paint protection, taking a star off.

Bought this becuase I’m not quite ready yet for more “professional” ceramic coatings, and this is one of the few 5yr ceramics on the market that’s super easy to install (this and Ammo Reflex). I’ve applied CSL on 2 cars so far and both were incredibly easy to apply as long as you’re careful. Most important thing is paint prep which is more challenging. Make sure you have good lighting as even a smudge or hand print can be noticeable if you don’t wipe thoroughly. If you do it correctly and polish beforehand the result will be an incredibly smooth glass like surface that has zero tack or texture. Highly recommended, just keep in mind one bottle will only last one car and make sure you have a few microfiber towels on-hand.

Works very well, is also very pricey but this lasts 2-3 years and my car is hit by direct sun in the summer. Solid stuff, worth the high price tag when you don't need to consistently apply a wax/sealant for another 2 years. I only wish the bottle had better sealing ability, some of the product after a few years turned hard, to be expected as the bottle is not completely airtight once it's opened. Maybe a rubber gasket or something would help improve that.

Wir führen Keramikversiegelungen seit knapp 8 Jahren durch und sind mit dem Produkt sehr zufrieden. Auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert. Lg Team Soncar Autoaufbereitung Dornbirn

Fácil de aplicar....rinde mucho...

Prodotto ottimo, a mio avviso non c’e’ prodotto migliore sul mercato. Il tallone d’achille e’ il tempo e condizioni di stoccaggio. Ho ricevuto in due occasioni il prodotto che stava iniziando a cristallizzare. Cio’ significa che e’ rimasto sullo scaffale per troppo tempo.

Maravilloso

Great product and easy to use. Really pleased with results
