G TECHNIQ EXO V5 ultra durable hydrophobic coating 50ml

The Gtechniq EXO v4 has been one of our favorite coatings for years now. It is extremely hydrophobic and easy to apply, making it great as a coating topper for that extra gloss, water beading, and protection we all strive for. It has however been years since this version was released and we knew it was only a matter of time before Gtechniq stepped up the formula yet again. Introducing EXO v5!

Gtechniq has been hard at work on this new formula and it took 54 different iterations before they settled on one for release. You heard that correctly, fifty four different formulas! This version, v5, offers a denser final surface that is less porous, decreasing coating clogging and increasing overall hydrophobics. Toss in the single layer application and a 9% increase to the gloss meter from v4 and EXO v5 is one every detailer needs to try out.

Check out the v5 specifications, application instructions, and application video below!
