Prepare The Surface Of Your Car For Protection With This? Gyeon Q2 PRIMER!!

- Today, we put Gyeon Q2M PRIMER through the Apex Detail Review Process! Q² Primer is an ultra-light finish and SiO2 primer. It provides superb pre-coating surface preparation and an incredibly glossy finish. Its main aim is to perfect the finish on the paints which are hardest to work with, dramatically reducing the risk of scratch marks during the final wipe off before coating. Q² Primer leaves a smooth and slick surface, ready to coat.

Work with a polishing machine of your choice. Spread at low revs. Work until fully diminished at medium revs. Wipe off with an HQ microfiber. If you’re willing to coat immediately after use, wipe surface with Q²M Prep after at least 15 minutes since Q² Primer has been used. Coating might be applied directly on Q² Primer without Q²M Prep wipe down after 24 hours.

I like the view of the polish through the microscope. Nice touch!
About Gyeon, I just buffed my boat gel coat and coated it with Gyeon Pure. The shine is outstanding. I know Gyeon has a gel coat coating but I had plenty of Pure after my MDX was coated and I had to try it. It does work well but I found a few places I scuffed afterwards. I wished there was a product that made gel coat more scuff resistant.
I will see how it buffs out when I can get to it.
Thanks Brian for all your vids. I always learn something. Thumbs up.....
I'm like a kid in a candy store when I see what you do on these cars.
It could also cause blue staining on some paints, in my case it did on a solid white paint.. So just be mindful and check your section pass closely.. The staining wouldn't go away with gyeon prep and required fine polish (or a strong cleanser like DP prep) to get rid of it (lucky i had done half hood only).
Have to finish watching your video, before I go back to work on my Ram. Good video. Just what am doing. Did the wife's bright blue Ford escape titanium. Turned out great. Lvr403, Gyeon can coat, topped xtreme solutions poly sealant. WOW.
I feel like you made this video just for me. Thanks for do what you do.
Gorgeous Vette! Gyeon has some good products.👍
I was told it's actually better to work the primer relatively hard. Due to the heat it will help the primer to cute better.
You mentioned jeweling a few times in the video...would you be able to make a video on that, and possibly use a couple different companies products? Just a thought, if you have a chance. Keep up the great work and stay safe!
Excellent review! I've been wanting someone to review this project for some time . Thank you!
That's just what I am getting ready to do on my Ram. Lvr403, GYEON CAN COAT, AND MAYBE A CHERRY. STILL LOOKING FOR GYEON CAN COAT, BY ITSELF. nice to visit with you Bryan. Had to send a email to carzillia, as my phone plan won't let me call out of the country. Who knew.
I am getting complaments, even when the RAM IS A LITTLE DIRTY. 😎👍😁
Now I'm intrigued with this..after a mild cutting compound and before a coating.. skip the polish🤔..I like that😃👍🏼
Great video, been waiting for this one for sometime.
I have some now. Used it today very nice.
Another GREAT video!👍
Thanks Brian for all your reviews. maybe do a video on your top ten "get it now" products?
That is one very lucky Corvette having you doing its detailing
Excellent video as always 💎✊Always appreciate your dedication and effort you put into the channel 👍🏻
Gonna use my flex polisher and lake country white pads. And LVR403, TO START.😎👍👍
Hi Brian,
I’m still using angel wax perfect polish ( 5 ltr purchased ) do you think this is an optional alternative.....?
I never tire of your calming voice.
Love from the uk 🇬🇧
Hey Mark did you try this over the anglewax perfect polish, if so which is best I was about to buy some of the anglewax range,
I am going to try this one. Thanks B.
Nice thanks Brian
great video again buddy thanks. love the geek stuff.b well
Great review, appriciated it!
Comparison between this, essence, and TAC systems offering?
You read my mind! This vs CarPro Essence vs Tac system Total One Essential vs Xtreme Solutions LVR403 vs TURTLE WAX HYBRID SOLUTIONS CERAMIC POLISH & WAX
@@paulgyro I thought Tac Systems temporarily closed down. I personally just used LVR403, it makes a good finish polish for black or dark colored vehicles. I imagine the Turtle Wax is great for what it is. If you are going for show car quality you are stuck with Gyeon or Carpro. Xtreme Solutions has a product call helios for white or light colored vehicles. I think if I was going to lay down a ceramic coating like CSL I would do the Gyeon. Use the LVR for non ceramic type of protection. Use TW Hybrid Solution as its family of TW products or maybe even Meguiars Liquid hybrid wax. I could be wrong.
@@donaldgreen9292 I love LVR403 on my Black BMW. Much easier to work with then Essence which doesn't wipe off well at all...doubles the time it takes. I was considering Gyeon but wanted a review before doing so. I think I'll pick some of this up as it cures much faster then LV403 which takes 24-48 hours. You are right about TAC Systems currently being shut down.
How’s the old red vette coming Brian?
Thanx for the great vlog & information👍🤓🇺🇸
Wouldn't it be a bad idea to put a ceramic coating over a weaker ceramic product? Folks have always said put the most durable product down first to give it the best possible contact, not that I agree with this but more interested in your thoughts.
I've always felt it didn't matter and liked to put on a carnuba based wax first, followed by a good sealant in order to offer more protection and extent the life of the carnuba under it. Apples, and oranges to a degree but the idea is more or less the same. Folks enjoy saying the carnuba will fail faster and as it does it would compromise the sealant on top of it accelerating the failure. I feel the sealant should be able to protect the carnuba based wax under it (since it's goal is to protect the paint and block UV) if it's strong enough to protect the paint from environmental exposure it should should suggest the same for a wax underneath. Which ultimately offers a higher level of protection, and water characteristics on the outside layer, protecting the added gloss from carnuba longer.
Think of it like building a foundation for a home. Would you build the foundation out of wood and then build a concrete house on top of it? The concrete is stronger but it will compromise the wood foundation
Beautiful C7!
Great Video Brian and THANK YOU for posting! Can you help me understand how to obtain better “Clarity” in my finish? I have a 2018 Toyota Tundra magnetic gray color with no swirl marks what so ever, I invested in a panel light and I try to find swirls and there just aren’t any. But I wanted to take the paint to another level of gloss. I washed, clayed, and then used McKee’s 37 360 all-in-one with orange CCS Lake Country foam pads, set at speed 4 on my Maxshine M15 pro series ll polisher, using moderate arm speed with two passes using the cross hatch pattern. This was my very first time ever polishing, and it was a great experience, had a ton of fun doing it. The gloss is very nice, I can see my reflection pretty well, but it still seems some what of a “blurry” like glossy image, not real crisp, like it could have more “clarity” to it. For my next go around, what could I change in my arsenal to get better clarity in the finish? Thx again!
Tundra Whisperer something like this or even CarPro Essence would work.
@@apexdetail85 Hey, i was wondering, since you said if you wanna use it as foundation for a ceramic, don´t do more than 2 passes, so it doesn´t break down too far.
Would a handpolish without a machine be a possible way to apply as well or does it not break down far enough in that case?
So are you saying that this could be used as a one step correction? Or just a finish after a correction? Or both?
Great product!
Love your videos, I watch every single one. You said at first to wait 12-24 hours before coating then later you said you could do it in 15 minutes. Which would you recommend if coating with say Cquartz UK or Crystal Serum Light? I would assume 24 hours would be best but would 15 minutes be ok?
Jonathan Yommer It says you can coat after 15 min...I would wait 12 to 24 hr.
CarPro has a similar type of product, Essence. That product suggests a wipe down with a panel wipe if coating right away. If waiting 24 hours, the coating can go on without the wipe down.
Is there any video where you can show how to or what to use for IPA solution or exfoliation the pain before apply the product ..?
Brian early in the video you said you have to wait 12-24 hours after using these products before applying a coating. 3 minutes later you said you don’t have to wait you can coat 15 minutes after using the polish. Which one is it? confusing
Detailing indoors makes a huge difference.
The illusion of a shining hood is in all indoor recording. These hoods have been waxed about 1,000 times.
Was going to buy carpro essence but since it's sold out here in Australia I'll get this instead.
Hey Brian. Just want to let you know there is another product than can be used to remove polish residue without the risk of marring the paint at all...........ONR (blue version without wax in it of course)!!!!
But onr with its heavy surfactants will immediately degrade the foundation layer. I can see onr be great for wipedowns on traditional polishes/compounds
Thank you for the video, something that no one really talks about, how many pads did you use?
It would be great to know in future too. How many pads for a particular stage.
Thanks!
Jay since you are able to apply this at slower speeds and less pressure. You can usually go through a whole car cleaning the pad once a side. No that is just what I do. As long as you understand that a little goes a very long way.
Would love to try out gyeons stuff. Specifically their wax
I recently purchased a brand new Toyota 4Runner and want to prep the surface for a coating... BUT I only want to remove very little if any clear coat... how much clear will be removed when pairing with an ultra fine rupes foam pad and only 2 passes?
So little would be removed, it is almost unnoticeable
Cant wait to try it , my car was coated and i need to apply a new coating always was garage kept i dont really feel with bare hand contamination do you think iron and tar decon would be enough? Best regards
Brian , kind of in a spot. Have a client with a brand new x6. The vehicle has 2 miles on it. And hands down one of the best paint jobs I've seen. There mite be 3 spots that need very mild fixing. So my goal was to use a low country yellow with gyeon primer and see if that gets the spots out. If not then use sonix. But I really want to use gyeon primer for the enhancement. However, I'm coating with ngc v3 . And everyone saying it won't stick due to the s1o2. I saw you use yours on it and had amazing results. Any advice I appreciate
Does Gyeon make ANYTHING that isn't awesome?
Jimmyqballs hmm their packaging and bottles?
Nah those are awesome too!!
Can you share a photo after you coated the yellow corvette? I use Essence for similar but might try GYEON next reorder.
alberto is watching the video.today have to wait for dad snik snik.2 days try to clean use carbrite to protect the wheels
ooh corvette yahhh
Hey Brian, does this play well with Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light?
I also want to know.. I just got a 50ml bottle today..😀
I’ve used it a few times with CSL applied after and it works great. They recommend a gyeon coating but it doesn’t make a difference from what I’ve noticed.
I thought doing a panel wipe would remove the Primer and the idea was to not have to do a wipe.
Brian love your vids and detail page. What speed are you running your polisher at when applying the primer? And are you using an IPA after polishing? It says you don't need to if you wait 24 hours . I'm just wondering if usi g the IPA will affect the gloss.
Thanks for explaining about how stacking your coating on these base layer type polishes actually gives you the most out of your main coating. By the way I don't think they make that 1000ML size any more, only the 120ML. Getting my wife a new VW Atlas, any guess where that clear is going to fall on the hard, medium, soft scale? I know you said it's always evolving but just trying to save my self testing every Lake Country foam, eurofiber and megs MF pads I have.
I'll be coating my car with C.Quartz soon. Would I use Q2 Primer ou the Carpro Essence as this primer layer before coating? What's your preference Brian? Thanks a lot!
I use Essence and it's fantastic at bringing out the gloss. I haven't used Q2 but it looks as impressive.
Brian please link that google doc here!!👍👍
Nice video and review Brian, would you prefer this or something like CarPro Essence?
Would also like to know this
This is easier to use than essence. I just wish it came at a better price.
Apex Detail appreciate your response and value your thoughts and opinion, thank you sir.
@@apexdetail85 You are right Essence is a pain in the butt.
Brian I have meguirers ultimate wax that I put on my 2019 Altima in around August of 2019. I want to know if I can use dawn dish detergent to take off the wax so I can use turtle wax hybrid solutions polish and wax,
nicky6726 Isopropyl alcohol and water at 25 %
Jp in SD. Back to work.
Hi Brian, how does this product compare to CarPro Essence? Is it a similar foundation?
I use Essence and from what Brian shows in this video I would say yes. CarPro's instructions are pretty much the same and I use Essence prior to CQUK3.0
Thanks Brian. This product looks like it is safe to use twice a year without fear of removing clearcoat. True?
when doing paint correction would 3d one with the euro fiber pad. work well with gm paint without marring the paint
Absolutely, just make sure u get a good IPA wipe.
I am thinking about using this product before I apply the luxury microfiber shield pro. I have a fairly new Hyundai Veloster, I want to have your opinion on what pad I should use. Microfiber polish pad from maguire? Or a black foam?
Cant wait this vs rupes uno prime and protect
Hello, to make the most of the gloss you say not to pass more than twice, do you intend to apply the product on the pad, pass then reapply and go over again or two maximum passes on the same surface without reapplying the product?
Would you recommend a "3 step" of cutting compound (Sonax cutmax) then finishing (perfect finish) then primer?
Brian I was wondering have you tested Gtechniq CSL topped with EXO? What coating will be going on this car ? Don't like blue staining on the pad which is a con. Thanks
Helpfull ✅
so can you use primer as a 1 step polish on its own? to get rid of some light water spotting, swirling and scratches?
So Gyeon Primer can be used as a base layer for most ceramic coatings. Can that be said of most ceramic polishes? I have technicians choice ceramic polish which I used as a primer for their ceramic coating. Is it safe to assume that I could use that polish as a primer space for any ceramic coating?
can you use this product to remove marring caused by clay bar
How much of this product would you get through on a medium sized family car? I'm looking at the smaller product and it's going to be a yearly polish on my daily driven car. At least I'm hoping for 1 year with the combination of Primer, CanCoat and WetCoat topups.
Sorry for the late question but would you take this over Carpro Essence?
Brian, Can you tell me how to deal with matte finishes. I have a car that has green gloss paint and a black matte hood decal. If I coat it (or use a sealant), won’t the black decal turn glossy? How do i protect this?
Do you this product on a regular basis?
IHi Brian! s it better than carpro essence? Which do you prefer?
Would you recommended it on a Mazda 3 BP 2019? I want to do it with hand. And then coating with Gyeon can coating. I am n newbie never polish a car. But i am scare to destroy the clear coat😐
Can you use DPC products on top of this?
Can graphene products top a ceramic primer?
Ok you say alcohol and water. 25% alcohol and 75% water. Is that all I need to remove the meguirers ultimate wax.
Hey Brian, any major differences between this and CarPro Essence?
Can this be finished up with spray on Bead Maker?
Same companies say you dont need to use a panel prep after a primer polish before coating, others say absolutely have to use panel prep. In your opinion, after using a quality primer polish is a panel prep necessary?
If you wait say 8+ hours the light panel wipe is needed mainly to remove dust that will have fallen on the car.
What pad did you use, cutting or finishing pad?
Thanks again Brian for this vidéo. Its similar product to carpro essence ?
Donald Plante very similar.👍
@@apexdetail85 ok thanks
Were do you get the applicator pads?
Dallas paint correction coating also?
Will this work with graphene coatings?
Will this stain black trim?
really nice. can you apply this with an applicator or will it need a da machine?
Like anything, you can do it by hand, but I doubt whether the results would be as good and it's going to take more time.
If you coat your car with carpro after this and then reload and it does not get wet in the first 24 hours but gets wet with rain after that will this affect the coating? I as as i want to try this but I don't have a garage. Tks
24 hours without getting wet is fine for almost any coating. Just don't wash the car
Can I pass it twice around, first time for correcting, then for finishing??
U can but there's very little abrasives in these primers. Your better off correcting the stuff that needs it with a 3d1 or something like that. But these primers are mainly used to jewel as they say.
Is it advisable to just go over a car with this and apply a coating when replacing a dead coating?
TK BRAYER absolutely!
Would this be in the same category as angelwax perfect polish??
Similar, but these polishes in the video is better for coatings and they are more evolved in this category. Xtreme solutions lvr 403 is one of the bests in my opinion along with Brian’s
Waiting for the dogs, to tire out, so I can go back out and do my hand wash. Tough being a a puppy sitter.
Yep, playing with puppies is just zero fun.. they're always so depressing.. 😁😁👍✌
Just to be clear. You’re saying you have to wait 12 hours for the primer to cure before coating correct? I’d really appreciate your answer
No if you use gyeon you can either wait 24 hours and not have to wipe down with IPA or you can use an IPA and wait until your done polishing.
@@jimmyallen3850 alright. I always use 3D wipe before applying anything at all.
@@joewaz100 yeah with the 3d being kind of greasy you def want to IPA after that and then if you use the gyeon then you will want to do another wipe down unless you are able to wait 24 hours before coating and then your fine
@@jimmyallen3850 3D wipe is prep wipe. It is an ipa solution with other cleaners in it as well
Sorry never mind I just watched it again
I do like gyeon, their products are too pricey for me, thanks brian
BELIC68 I agree.
This, Essence or Sonax Perfect Finish before a coating (22ple)?
David Pinkowski this.
@@apexdetail85 looking forward to using this then applying the new gyeon wax (when it comes to Aus) over the top, would you recommend the gyeon prep before the wax ? Or use wax straight over the top,can I also use gyeon wet coat over the top of the wax with out losing the look of the wax.,cheers from Australia
Those products like this geyon can be considered as a standalone or like an AIO beside as a.primer for coating ??
I think both
Yes.. both.👍
Same as carpro essence?
Yes. It’s easier to use than essence but I wish the price was better
@@henryfreeman6113 agree on pricing..
