OPTiX OP1-GQP

Certified Detailer 5-Year Professional Quartz Ceramic Coating

OPTiX OP1-GQP is a professional quartz ceramic coating developed for certified detailers who require a high-gloss, durable, and controlled paint protection system.

Designed for long-term automotive paint protection, OP1-GQP forms a clear, cured, low-surface-energy layer over properly prepared surfaces. Once installed correctly, the coating helps improve gloss, increase hydrophobic behaviour, reduce contamination build-up, and make regular washing easier.

This is not a retail DIY coating, spray sealant, or consumer wipe-on product. OP1-GQP is available only to certified OPTiX detailers and approved professional installers.

Certified Detailer Only

OP1-GQP is not available for public purchase.

It is supplied only to certified detailers who understand paint preparation, machine polishing, coating application, curing conditions, maintenance requirements, and customer warranty obligations.

This controlled supply model helps protect the quality of the coating result and ensures the product is applied by trained professionals using the correct preparation and installation process.

5-Year Warranty Coating

OP1-GQP is backed by a 5-year warranty when installed by a certified OPTiX detailer and maintained according to OPTiX warranty and care requirements.

The warranty is designed to support professional installation, correct surface preparation, safe maintenance, and realistic coating performance in real-world conditions.

Like all professional ceramic coatings, OP1-GQP is not a substitute for proper washing, safe drying, and ongoing care. It helps protect the surface and make maintenance easier, but it does not make paint scratch-proof, stone-chip-proof, or maintenance-free.

Why Choose OP1-GQP?

OP1-GQP is suited to customers who want a serious professional ceramic coating installed by an approved detailer rather than a basic retail product.

For new cars, it helps protect the finish early before the paint has been heavily exposed to sun, washing, road grime, water spotting, and environmental contamination.

For used cars, OP1-GQP works best after proper paint correction, giving the paint a cleaner, glossier, and better-prepared surface before protection is applied.

The goal is simple: stronger gloss, easier washing, hydrophobic behaviour, and professional paint protection with realistic expectations.

Real-World Paint Protection

OP1-GQP helps protect automotive paint from the type of conditions vehicles deal with every day, including UV exposure, road grime, traffic film, water spotting, dust, and environmental fallout.

However, coating advice should always be realistic.

Most daily-driven cars, work vehicles, 4WDs, and cars exposed to harsh conditions will still collect wash marks, fine scratches, water spotting, and general wear over time.

A ceramic coating helps protect the surface and makes maintenance easier, but it does not stop every mark from happening forever.

That is why paint correction remains an important part of professional coating work. When the paint needs to look its best again, machine polishing or paint correction is often the correct way to reset the finish before applying a fresh coating.

For many vehicles, the best result is not simply choosing the coating with the longest lifespan claim. It is choosing the right coating, preparing the paint correctly, applying it properly, maintaining it safely, and knowing when the paint is ready to be refined again.

Professional Installation Process

For the best result, OP1-GQP should be applied only after correct surface preparation.

The vehicle should be washed, chemically decontaminated, clay decontaminated where required, inspected under proper lighting, machine polished or paint corrected where needed, and wiped down with a suitable coating preparation solvent before application.

The coating should be applied indoors, out of direct sunlight, to a cool and completely dry surface. Application timing will vary depending on temperature, humidity, panel size, and workshop conditions.

After installation, the coating must be allowed to cure correctly and should be maintained with pH-safe wash products and ceramic-safe maintenance products.
