Opinions on Modesta?

It seems, from a quick look at what I can find online, that Modesta>Opti-coat>cquartz when it comes down to paint coating quality. However, Modesta seems to be a lot more expensive than either of the other two.

Does anybody have any experience with Modesta? Is it worth the extra money?

I love it, I am biased.

Reach out to the installer closest to you and discuss the merits of each. I would also make sure that you trust the installer of any coating, before the coating itself.

As Bruce says... I would get credentials from the detailer itself and then just use what he recommends or works with. The work matters more than the product when it comes to these premium brands.

Yes and No. Yes, look into the detailer.

No, there are differences in the coatings, some are more pure, made in small batches with sourced materials from one area. Others are mass produced with ingredients from other countries than the origin country.
