    So I am in two minds whether to get my yet to arrive Tiguan coated in Opti-Coat Pro+ or Ceramic Pro.

    I have a couple quotes and they both cover Opti-Coat/ Ceramic Pro to all external painted surfaces, external plastics, glass, wheels (face and inner wheel), internal leather, fabrics, dash & plastics plus window tinting - basically THE LOT.
    1. Opti-Coat - $1700
    2. Ceramic Pro - $2475 - 2 coat exterior application - 6 microns (currently waiting on a second quote that I believe should come in far more competitive)

    From your experience are the above quotes reasonable? At the moment I'm leaning toward the Opti-Coat package even should the Ceramic Pro price come down several hundred dollars as from what I've read Opti-Coat seems the better product. I know this has been debated forever and a day - just thinking out loud here

    Hey Miilos

    I had pomponazzi coat applied to my car last week its pretty good you might want to look at it as well

    The opticoat wont be as glossy as either ceramic pro or pomponazzi its a flat protection where the quartz ones will give a really deep gloss
    I could shave in the reflection off my car(tornado red)
    There are threads on opticoat vs ceramic pro and pomponazzi in the detailing section

    (dont forget the most important thing is the paint correction before the protection coat goes on if there are any marks underneath once coated they will be there for the life of the coat i.e a long time)

    Best of luck with your new toy i am loving mine

    Hi guys,

    I'm considering Gyeon Quartz protection for the Tiguan once it arrives. Still not fully decided though.

    Wanted to see what you guys thought.
    My situation is that the car will be garaged most of the time. It'll be well looked after and I plan to keep it for 7-8 years at least. I won't be washing it myself but plan on getting a hand wash done every month perhaps (won't do too many k's).

    Do you think the protection is worth it?
    Also would it provide extra gloss? Could it change the "look" of the colour in the sun or indoors? Deeper/richer?
    The colour I'm getting is metallic tungsten silver.

    Keen to hear your thoughts.

    No,but if you're spending $60K on a fully rigged Tiguan, $2K is worth it.

    I've had Opticoat to my Golf's exterior panels, wheels and windscreen. Makes cleaning the car a tonne easier, good for me when I just want to hose the car down.

    I've decided to go this route again for my new car instead of PPF...until I change my mind again lol.
