Here is my process I used when I applied Cosmic to my GT:
1 – Wash
2 – Chemical Decon – CarPro IronX
3 – Nanoskin Autoscrub Pad (Claybar if you wish)
4 – Paint Correction if needed (remove swirls by compound or polish)
5 – Apply Invincible Primer either by hand or machine (No need for IPA or Eraser wipedown)
** If applying by machine, use polishing pad @ speeds 4-6 (I used Flex 3401 & LC White Hybrid) **
6 – Apply 1st coat Cosmic by hand or machine (No need for IPA or Eraser wipedown)
** If applying by machine, use finishing pad @ speed 2 (I used Flex 3401 & LC Black Hybrid) **
** If applying by hand, use supplied applicator and apply as if you were applying a wax **
** Wait 30 minutes then buff off residue with MF towel **
** If adding additional coats, allow 2 hours after initial application of Cosmic before applying second layer. Specific binding receptors ensure perfect cohesion. Layering must be done at this stage of the process. You cannot add additional layers 6 months from now **
7 – Apply 2nd coat Cosmic by hand or machine
** Wait 30 minutes then buff off residue with MF towel **
Additional Notes:
** After final application of Cosmic, do not allow the surface to come in contact with heat or water in the following 12-24hours **
** Do not wash vehicle for 7 days - takes 30 days to fully cure **
Recommended Products for Maintenance:
PA UltraRed - Intense Pre-Wash cleaner (used to clean the surface - once coated not recommended to use claybar or IronX to clean surface)
PA Viking Spritz - Maintenance Spray for the coating
In case anyone is wondering, I have personally used the following waterless products on Cosmic: UWW, Blackfire WW, Meguiar’s D114 Rinseless and Meguiar’s D115 Rinse Free Express Wash & Wax. D115 is by far my favorite and definitely adds to the gloss.
I believe Darren applied 4 coats to his and it looks fucking amazing, I'm sure it's even better in person. I applied Cosmic to my GT over Thanksgiving and still looks amazing. Application info was taken from the PA website and information I've gathered from Travis @ PA. Hope this helps guys
