Armour Quartz Coating sets a new benchmark in user-friendly ceramic protection. Formulated with advanced polysilazane chemistry, high-clarity ceramic resins, and an isoparaffinic solvent system, it delivers exceptional gloss, optical clarity, and an ultra-slick finish-all in a single-layer application.
The innovative blend of polysilazane technology ensures extreme chemical resistance and enhances the slickness of your vehicle's surface, dramatically reducing dirt accumulation and making maintenance effortless. Armour Quartz's user-friendly application allows enthusiasts and professionals alike to achieve professional-grade results without complicated techniques or layering, ensuring a seamless and frustration-free experience.
Safe and versatile, Armour Quartz Coating can be applied to painted surfaces, chrome, plastic trim, glass, and vinyl/PPF, providing dependable, real-world protection for 3+ years. Its robust resistance against common contaminants like stains, bug splatter, sap, and chemical etching keeps your vehicle looking pristine, while the slick, hydrophobic surface makes ongoing care faster, simpler, and safer than ever.

We at Armour Detail Supply are committed to developing enjoyable, easy-to-use formulas that provide professional-level results. We live by the notion of providing "Car Care Products That Are NOT Over-Hyped!". Meaning, we are not in the business of overselling our products, providing outlandish claims, or claims only proven in lab environments. Does your vehicle live in a lab? Do you? We didn't think so. So why make claims based on lab results. That’s why we have separated ourselves from industry-specific buzzwords like “ceramic”, “graphene”, “titanium” and “nano”. These coatings primary ingredients are Silica Dioxide(SiO2 or Quartz)/PolySiloxanes/PolySilazanes (as the protection), proprietary resins (as "attachment systems"), and carrier solvents (to provide an easy installation). Hence why we call our "ceramic" coatings, Quartz Coatings. We have done the lab testing of our Coatings, it suggests durability over twice what we are claiming and hardness levels we know are laughable. When entrusting the protection of your vehicle to Armour Quartz Coatings, you are experiencing only real world claims and durability.

Always test in small area before full application to determine flash time.
Applying in colder conditions will lengthen time frame before wipe-off (closer to 2-3 minutes). Applying in hotter conditions will give you a shorter time frame before you wipe-off (closer to 1-2 minutes).
Shelf life of 12 months, use within 90 days of opening.
Prep:
The Prep is the most important step of the process, our coating is great but it can not do the prep work for you!
1. Decontaminate the paint surface using Armour Detail Supply Decon Soap and Iron Remover, followed by removing further embedded contamination with a clay bar or synthetic clay mitt.
2. If swirl marks, or scratches are present, polish the paint to reduce any surface defects and create maximum gloss.
3. Use our Armour Detail Supply Panel Prep to remove any oils/residue left from your polishing step. If you did not polish the surface, repeat this step twice to ensure a clean surface.
You are ready to apply Armour Quartz Coating!
Application:
1. After thorough prep prime the applicator with 3 lines start and each subsequent application will only need a small amount, a little goes a long way.
2. Apply Armour Coating 1-2 panels at a time. Initially create an "X" pattern on the panel, then box in all edges to allow for even distribution of the coating. Follow through the panel using small overlapping circles (like a wax) making sure to have even, level coverage. Allow the product to "set up" for 1-3 minutes depending on temperature/humidity (generally 90 seconds). Look for uniform small sweat beads or light haze to appear before removing.
3. In a small circular motion level coating 95%+ on 1st wipe (short nap, pearl weave). If the product is very hard to remove it needs less time before removal. Switch to 2nd towel (plush) for final leveling, wipe in straight lines for final removal. Check for any streaks, or high spots which can appear as cloudy or dark spots. Repeat this process per panel
4. Halfway through the vehicle or as the applicator starts to cure, flip the applicator over to a fresh side.
5. Use a fresh side of your removal towels every panel.
Armour Quartz Coating was designed as a single layer coating, however, it can be layered. If you wish to apply multiple layers allow 1-2 hours between layers. Allow 1-2 hours if you choose to layer PHOBIC on top of the Armour Coating.
After Care:
Allow product to sit 4 hours for initial cure. After 4 hours you can apply our Armour Detail Supply AMPLIFY or Ceramic Spray Sealant to protect the coating during its initial cure. Do not wash or induce to chemicals for 24 hours.
FAQs
Two small cars. One Midsize Car/SV with product left over. One Large Truck/SUV.
Yes, however, all Armour Coatings were made to be single layer only! If you wish to apply a second layer, wait 1-2 hours between layers.
Yes! Both Armour and Armour PRO coating can be used on plastic trim. They will provide a sleek darkening effect to the plastic, and provide significant UV protection and hydrophobic properties to the plastic surface.
Allow the product to sit 4 hours at minimum for initial cure. After 4 hours you can apply our Armour Detail Supply AMPLIFY to protect the coating during its initial cure. After 4 hours the vehicle can be driven and get wet. Do not wash or induce chemicals for 24 hours.
