Having had the privilege of knowing these guys over the years—or, in some cases, this past year—I’m confident they’ll represent us with excellence. Their enthusiasm to join matches our excitement to have them on board.
Thank you to everyone who has supported them along the way—your encouragement means the world. Here’s to a bright future together!

In our application listing, it states…
“To be able to be certified as a QUARTZ Professional Installer we are looking for those who are far above average in terms of: quality of work, quality of character, business ethics, and customer service.”
You’ll notice that only one of these four criteria specifically relates to the technical skill of detailing. That’s because, for us, quality work is the bare minimum-it’s the entry point, not the destination. What truly sets our installers apart is how they approach their craft: their integrity, their communication with clients, and their dedication to the customer experience.
Character is, without question, the most crucial quality we seek in our finest installers. It’s not just about being the best at what you do; it’s about how you do it, how you treat others, and the impact you leave behind long after the job is done.

It’s not about how many coatings we sell or how many installers join our network. It’s about the quality of the work being done by incredible people. From day one, it has always been about our values. These values extend to a network of unique, skilled individuals who share and live by the same principles we do. Don’t get us wrong— we are incredibly proud of the industry-leading nanotechnology we produce. But what makes us prouder is our people. Building a network of installers who are so aligned, appreciative, and character-driven is no easy feat. It’s our greatest achievement.
Before we introduced DQUARTZ through our network of professional installers, we conducted extensive behind-the-scenes testing to ensure it would meet the highest standards and deliver new benefits to our customers. We believe in thoroughly evaluating our products so that when they reach the market, customers can expect both quality results and a top-tier experience.
Since its release, DQUARTZ has been embraced by thousands of customers worldwide, adding a robust new layer of protection to their vehicles. During our testing, we found that DQUARTZ serves as an ideal base layer for any coating application. Its advanced nanodiamond technology demonstrated remarkable strength, even in extreme conditions, earning our confidence through rigorous “torture tests.” When paired with our other certified coatings as a topper, we’ve seen significant improvements in longevity, strength, and durability, particularly for vehicles subjected - to more demanding environments.
The key takeaway? We’re proud of DQUARTZ because we’ve put it to the test. Whether it was exposed to blazing heat, harsh mineral water, or freezing winter conditions, DQUARTZ consistently impressed us with its unparalleled durability.
If you are considering a professional applied ceramic coating and quality is part of who you are, this is for you. We challenge you to ask the detailers you speak with what they accomplished in order to receive their certification. We are confident that nobody has a more thorough approval process than we do.
While the world may often revolve around money, that is not the case with our certification program. There is no amount of $$$ that will convince us to part with a bottle of our professional grade coating outside our certified installers. These shops have been thoroughly vetted just for you. Why such a strict process? It is absolutely necessary in order to provide the level of service we promise you each and every day.
By having a network of installers focused on professional paint correction, ethical business practice, strong personal character, and the highest quality work, we are confident that the individual or shop taking care of your investment will care for both you and your car the same way we will. Our installers may be masters at their craft and professionals in the industry, but their main job is ALSO to put your needs first.
Demand Finest. Demand perfection. Demand a service unlike any other.
It’s been a few months since VERGE 2024, and as we officially announced the location for next year, we find ourselves reflecting on how much this event means to us.
When VERGE was first conceived, we never imagined just how vital it would become to our community. Beyond the incredible learning opportunities, VERGE has evolved into a way for our network to truly connect—as a family. The human connection we experience at VERGE, meeting our brothers and sisters from across the nation, is the heart of this event, and we are endlessly grateful for it.
We’re already looking forward to VERGE 2025. As the new year approaches, so does the opportunity to share that closeness once again.

Our network is filled with MORE than just great detailers. But some of the greatest PEOPLE we know.
Wills of @windowsandwheels shares with us one of the way he chooses to think about business decisions.
At the heart of everything we do is a love for people. CARPRO, Sky’s the Limit, CQUARTZ—these brands mean nothing without the people behind them. What we’re most proud of is our community: our team, our customers, our supporters.
A huge thank you to everyone who helps make our industry a better place. To those who put people first, and to the incredible group in our Finest Network who embody these values and live them every day—we appreciate you.
#finest installer @kimballshandsondetailing makes dreams become a reality for @bmwdiyguy
Stefan just could not contain his excitement with how great this project came out that a full photoshoot seemed like the only appropriate course of action after delivery. Full paint correction, and then coated with the best from head to toe. #CQUARTZ #DQUARTZ
People say family should be the most important thing in life. Why not have that same philosophy regarding the people in your business? Upon creation of the CQUARTZ Finest network, we aimed to create a group of installers not just of the highest skill but of the highest quality. We aimed to create a true “family. And not the kind of family that throws you a pizza party in the breakroom for a good quarter, but a family that knows, cares, and is truly involved in each other’s lives.
We wholeheartedly believe that CQUARTZ finest is the strongest coating on the market with tons of real-world research boasting incredible results…. but the people that make up #Cquartzfinest are what make the CQUARTZ Finest products have their true value. Our PEOPLE are the thing we are proud of the most.
Name another coating brand that has “good character” as a prerequisite for certification.

Interview clip of Jon Speers of @areteautosalon
Corey, owner and operator of @Skycarcare, @carpro_us, and @CQFinest North America has been running the CQUARTZ Finest program since CARPRO products have been brought into the states. Since day one, the person behind our products has always been priority one. By choosing to hold our network to a high standard, has allowed us to build a unified brand of quality, reliability, and honesty. Our network is a culmination of each member. Growing with every addition and adapting to the industry together as a team, no, family.
Thank you to every single one of our #Finest and #professional installers that help make this family what it is today. and thank you to anyone who has ever trusted CQUARTZ to protect their investment.
To say this is simply scratching the surface of our interview with @elitefinish @weswalz is an understatement. This short clip has Wes explaining how his San Diego location provides him with the opportunity to constantly improve his services and push himself and his team to new heights. Just one of his 3 locations that each offer him and his business unique challenges, markets, and learning opportunities.
Wes has been an integral part to our @cquartzfinest program and continues to push our network to grow, learn, and become the best version of themselves.
Thank you @elitefinish for hosting the past #VERGE and a huge thank you to @weswalz for his continued devotion to our teams success 🙏🏻.
Brigham of @superiorautomotivedetails goes a little bit into why he loves our @cquartzfinest network. Above all else this network is a family. Our group is one of support, love, and brotherhood. We are forever grateful for the incredible people that make up this network 🙏🏻 and their ability to be so giving and open to helping their CQUARTZ Family.
Huge thanks to Brigham of @superiorautomotivedetails for sitting down with us at our last VERGE and sharing a bit of his story.
