Excellent work. So, how long is the Aquartz application supposed to last? Was that one bottle enough to do the car body + glass? I guess I just don't understand the product yet.

Aquartz should last 1-3 years.

sorry should have been more clear 2 coats on the glass and paint would be just about 60-80ml. so 2 bottles should do it.
