Make sure you have cleaned and prepped the surface before applying CRYSTALEEN. You want a raw surface, without any waxes or sealers, so it can chemically bond with the substrate. Start with Stage 1 which is a sealant, aka the glassifier. You'll start on a clean, prepped surface. Use caution not to get the product in your eyes, and make sure you're in a well ventilated area. Apply it out of the sun in ambient temperature for best results. Shake up the Stage 1 bottle so everything mixes together fully. Start by spraying it evenly across a 2 foot by 2 foot section at a time. Before buffing, immediately move to Stage 2, the curing solution. This is what causes the sealant to bond to the surface on a molecular level. Evenly spray Stage 2 over the same section and let it sit 5-10 seconds, then buff if in with a microfiber towel. Go over it again with a second, dry microfiber towel. Make sure to continue shaking stage 1 before applying each time. You don't want the product to dry before you buff it off. We recommend you do two coats out of the gate for maximum results, and there is no waiting period between coats!
