CLICK HERE TO WATCH THE INSTRUCTION VIDEO!!

Important to understand

Crystal Bro is not a ceramic coating or a polish.

It is a self-leveling treatment that:

Visually fills scratches and swirls
Adds deeper color and high gloss
Lays down as a protective film over the paint/clear coat

After full curing, it is this film that takes the wear and protects the car's original surface.

Must not be used on

Wrapping / PPF
Existing protection (wax, ceramic coating, etc.)
Glass
Carbon fiber
Interior surfaces

Step 1 – Preparation (Most Important)

The surface must be:

Completely clean
Completely dry
Free from wax, oils, and residue

Wash the car thoroughly and remove any previous protection.

Poor prep is the most common cause of poorer results.

Step 2 – Correct conditions

Work in 15–24°C
Avoid cold and excessive heat
Work on a cool surface

Always start on a smaller area (e.g. a door).
Save the hood for last once you've got the technique down.

Step 3 – Prepare applicator

Saturate the applicator thoroughly
It should be completely soaked — not dry anywhere
Add more product after 2–4 passes

Step 4 – Application

Apply a generous and even layer
Work with straight passes (not back and forth)
Use even, controlled pressure

⚠️ Important:

Go over the surface only once
If more than ~5 seconds have passed → do not go back
Do not overwork the surface

Crystal Bro should not be polished in.
It is self-leveling and should be left after application.

Step 5 – Check

Do you see streaks?

Usually too little product or uneven application

Solution:

Let the surface cure
Apply a new layer if needed

Do not rub during curing.

Step 6 – Curing (48 hours)

For at least 48 hours (may require more in colder environments):

Keep the car completely dry
Avoid rain, moisture, and snow
Do not touch the surface for the first few days

Moisture during curing can cause white or cloudy marks.

Result

After full curing you get:

Deeper color
Increased gloss
Less visible scratches and swirls

On heavily worn paint, a second application may be needed.

Important to understand

Crystal Bro:

Restores and enhances appearance
Fills scratches visually

It:

Repairs not deep scratches
Does not work on damaged paint

How to remove Crystal Bro

If you want to remove the product:

Spray the entire surface thoroughly with IPA (99.5% isopropyl alcohol), then wipe firmly with a cloth. This removes the product completely within the first 30 min; if more than 30 min have passed, see step 2.
Polish off the film that has been laid over the paint/clear coat. In the first few days, a light polish is enough, but if the product has set well, a coarser polish may be needed to remove the film!

Aftercare

Do not wash the car for 14 days
Avoid chemicals during this period

Important:

Avoid wiping the paint or trying to remove the product before 14 days have passed.
Depending on the environment, the product may need time to set properly.

Cold degreaser:

Use with care
Max 5–6 minutes per wash

Common mistakes

❌ Too little product → streaks
❌ Too much pressure → uneven results and streaks
❌ Application in cold conditions → poor leveling and rainbow streaks
❌ Application in heat → the product sets too quickly and streaks
❌ Poor prep → worse durability
