$356.75
EXOv5 sets a new benchmark in Last Surface Protection (LSP) by delivering a durable, high-gloss finish with exceptional hydrophobic performance. Its advanced formula forms a hard, slick film that resists water spots, wash chemicals, and micro-marring—making maintenance easier and your vehicle look better for longer.
Compared to previous versions, EXOv5 offers a more chemically resistant and long-lasting layer, standing up to road salts, harsh detergents, and environmental contaminants with ease. The slow flash-off time makes application more forgiving, giving users greater control and the ability to achieve a flawless finish.
With the added benefit of enhanced swirl resistance, EXOv5 represents a significant leap forward in protective coating technology—ideal for those seeking premium gloss, durability, and ease of use in one product.

EXOv5 can be applied as a standalone sealant or as a top layer for Gtechniq C1 Crystal Lacquer or Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light (CSL) - we recommend applying C1 or CSL as a base coat for easy to mark and dark paints
Good To Know
- When applying over a ceramic coating (C1 Crystal Lacquer): EXOv5 should be applied more than 2 hours but less than 12 hours after you finish the C1 application.
- When applying over CSL, EXOv5 can either be applied immediately after you have finished or up to 24 hours after completing application of CSL.
- If you are applying immediately after CSL application, make sure you are starting the process at the same place you did with CSL and following the same order of panels.
Helpful Hints
- In addition to this kit you will need at least two but ideally four quality Edgeless 300, Edgeless 365 or Pearl towels from The Rag Company.
- Ensure that your vehicle is out of direct sunlight but warmer than 5 degrees Celsius, is completely dry, and will stay dry for at least 12 hours after application.
- If needed, polish your paintwork either by machine or by hand to remove any imperfections.
Directions
Wipe down all surfaces using Gtechniq Panel Wipe and a quality Edgeless 300, Edgeless 365 or Pearl towel from The Rag Company (apply the Panel Wipe to the cloth and buff - not directly to the panel) – if you are applying over newly applied C1 or CSL, this step is not required
- Put on the nitrile gloves provided.
- Drop between 5 and 10 drops of EXOv5 onto the applicator provided. Work the liquid into the pad to get an even saturation.
- Apply in overlapping strokes to an area roughly 2’ x 2’ (60x60cm), or work to the bodylines of the vehicle.
- If the surface of the vehicle is between 40 and 60 degrees Fahrenheit, wait for two minutes If the surface is between 60 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit wait for one minute and for temperatures above this, remove immediately.
- Fold your first microfiber towel twice to form a square, spread and remove most of the residue using a light touch.
- With your second folded microfiber cloth remove all remaining residues. We advise to move your head so that you get direct and oblique views of your finish to spot all residue. It is also advisable to use bright, but flat lighting, to make residue spotting easier.
You will find that your vehicle is significantly easier to clean and whilst EXOv5 has significantly better resistance to caustic wash chemicals these chemicals will shorten the lifespan of any coating and are not recommended as part of your care routine.
EXOv5 can be overcoated with other products, but if this is done you will get the surface performance of the product you overcoat it with and not EXOv5.
An unopened bottle of EXOv5 has a 12-month shelf life from the time of purchase.
