If you want the best UV protection that money can buy than get the DLight. If you want something you may be able to remove without mechanical polishing then buy Skin. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can CQUARTZ DLight be used on vinyl?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eA: Yes, it is highly recommended for vinyl material as vinyl is very susceptible to UV damage. We do recommend that you test on an inconspicuous area first because the quality of vinyl varies so greatly between brands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can CQUARTZ DLight be used on satin or matte surfaces?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eA: we believe that you should not apply a coating to a surface that cannot be polished. Satin and Matte surfaces cannot be polished without damaging their finish so we do not suggest coating them. Many others in the industry do coat matte and satin surfaces and do so at their own risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How this is different then CQUARTZ Dlux on plastics? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: This provides far more UV protection than Dlux on any surface it is applied to. CQUARTZ Dlux is the go to for extreme heat like brake and wheel components but CQUARTZ DLight is far superior for protection of plastics and PPF where the sun’s UV rays are the enemy. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can be used on textured plastic trim? Did you test it on plastic? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes, it can be applied to textured plastic trim just like CQUARTZ Dlux however we would caution with the exact same warning you find on our CQUARTZ Dlux page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does CQUARTZ DLight add hydrophobics and have other features or only UV protection?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eA: CQUARTZ DLight is actually on par with the critically acclaimed DQUARTZ GO with regards to its hydrophobics, beading, and slickness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can CQUARTZ DLight be used as standalone on paint or only as a top coat?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eA: We have been testing it as a standalone  on paint and it has performed flawlessly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand New Vehicles (Textured Plastic):\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e The reason we have a warning is because of possible complications that can arise years into the future due to variables out of our control. A car dealer may use a very high silicone content dressing on the trim before selling it to the new owner and some of this may not be able to be removed before application of a ceramic coating. That can cause it not to bond and create an unsightly appearance if not entirely bonded. We believe it is also possible that the plastic may “gas out” for a year or so after being created and potentially that gas could get caught between ceramic and plastic and create tiny microscopic bubbles that start to make an unsightly dulling appearance. In the rare instances that it happens, there is no surefire solution to removing the discoloration or white dots due to the fact it is nearly impossible to effectively polish a ceramic coating off textured plastic without changing its appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMatte Finish Surfaces:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith regards to coating a matte or satin finish surface – we personally advise against using any semi-permanent coating on a matte finish or any finish that you are not able to polish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reasoning is two fold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplying a product that you can’t remove without polishing TO a surface that you can NOT polish is not logical to us.
