Crystal Gaurd on the interior?
Hey folks. I've been reading up on the Crsytal Gaurd product and chances are I'm going to use it my next car wash. I have the sport package with the Titanium trim. Is there any chance I could use this product on that to give it a nice protective coat? Even if its just a damp cloth with a bit of CG. Will it damage or even bond with the trim? What do you guys think?

Re: Crystal Gaurd on the interior?
why dont you just spot test it on the side of the center console, somewhere non-visible, and let us know your results! [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]

How well does CG repel dust? Would it be worthwile to add an antistatic spray? I was thinking of using this on the interior, exterior and rims. And if so which one would be best?

Re: Crystal Gaurd on the interior?
Well as you can see, I probably havent. Even spelled it wrong. Different kind of music, I guess.
The titanium part DOES look "blingin' " but more importantly, doesn't feel rough to the touch - it was amazing when I applied the Zaino - it absorbed it, and then got really smooth. Don't know if it strengthens the paint any, but I haven't had any scratches or chips yet.
Thanks for the education!

Re: Crystal Gaurd on the interior?
It was a while ago - I think I had just finished applying a coat of Z-2 to the outside, and had a wee bit left. Not enough to another coat, but it got me thinking.
You know how the panel feels rough when you touch it? Almost like a chalk board. so I think I applied a small bit to an inconspicuous location, and when that turned out ok, (after taking it off and making sure the paint didn't peel off or turn color or anything), applied the Z-2 to the rest.
Have not done it again since then, but still feels smooth.

Re: Crystal Gaurd on the interior?
UPDATE:
Just CG'ed the interior silver trim console with great results. Its shiny and super-smooth now.
1) First wipe off the center console with a damp microfiber cloth to clean it from any dust particles.
2) Then use a small fine-mist spray bottle filled with water
3) Spray the console with about 5 mists of water.
4) Spray the console with about 5 mists of CG-Quick.
5) Take the otherside of the damp microfiber cloth and spread.
6) Spray with 5 mists of water again and gently wipe dry.
