Quick Facts – CarPro CQuartz Ceramic UV Protection Coating
- Brand: CarPro CQuartz
- Model: DLight
- Volume: 100 ml
- Protection duration: Up to 3 years per application
- UV protection range: 260–360 nm
- Properties: Hydrophobic (self-cleaning) and scratch-resistant surface
- Application area: Headlights, paint protection film (PPF) and other plastic surfaces
- Application: Simple application process, no special tools required
The CarPro CQuartz Ceramic UV Protection Coating provides headlights, paint protection film (PPF) and other plastic components on vehicles with documented protection against UVA and UVB radiation in the 260–360 nm range, with a durability of up to three years per application. The coating functions as a Ceramic Coating and is designed to counteract yellowing, fading and cracking that would otherwise occur after prolonged exposure to sun and weather.
In addition to UV protection, the product creates a hydrophobic surface that allows water and dirt to run off more easily, reducing the need for frequent washing and making ongoing maintenance easier. The surface also gains improved resistance to mechanical abrasion, helping the headlight lens and PPF film retain their appearance for longer.
Application is carried out by hand with no need for special tools, making the product suitable for use in both valeting workshops and by detailers working from home. More CarPro CQuartz products for paint care are available in our range for those wishing to complement the treatment.
What sets the CarPro CQuartz UV Protection Coating apart?
What sets this coating apart is the combination of UV blocking and hydrophobic properties in a single product. Most traditional sealants provide either gloss or a degree of dirt repellence, but lack the documented UV blocking in the 260–360 nm range that this product offers.
The coating can also be used as a top layer over other coatings to provide additional UV protection, making it a complement rather than a competitor to existing treatments on the vehicle.
Where the CarPro CQuartz UV Protection Coating performs best
- Headlight lenses affected by yellowing or fading from sunlight
- Paint protection film (PPF) on bonnets, bumpers and sills
- Other plastic body components, such as spoilers and trim
- As a top layer over existing ceramic coatings for additional UV protection

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Does the CarPro CQuartz UV Protection Coating work on all types of plastic surfaces on vehicles?
Yes, the CarPro CQuartz Ceramic UV Protection Coating is designed for headlight lenses, paint protection film (PPF) and other plastic surfaces on vehicles. However, it is not intended for painted bodywork, where other CarPro CQuartz products are better suited, and the best results are achieved on clean, degreased surfaces.
Do surfaces treated with the CarPro CQuartz UV Protection Coating require special cleaning afterwards?
No, the hydrophobic surface created by the CarPro CQuartz UV Protection Coating actually makes cleaning easier, since water and dirt run off more readily. Regular washing with a gentle shampoo and Microfibre towels is sufficient for ongoing maintenance, with no need for aggressive cleaning products.
What is the difference between the CarPro CQuartz UV Protection Coating and a standard sealant?
The difference compared with a standard sealant is that the CarPro CQuartz UV Protection Coating is specifically designed to block UVA and UVB radiation in the 260–360 nm range on plastic, whereas most sealants are primarily designed for gloss and dirt repellence on painted surfaces. Other ceramic coatings in our range can be used as a complement on painted parts.
