The 2-year (CarPro CQuartz SiC, from $799) fits lease drivers, the 5-year (CarPro DQuartz, from $1,299) is the most popular tier and fits most owners, and the 10-year (CarPro DQuartz + Gliss, from $1,899) is the flagship for new-vehicle buyers, luxury owners, and long-term ownership. Each tier is a genuinely different product, not just a longer warranty on the same coating. All three include decontamination and correction appropriate to the paint's condition.
All three ceramic coating tiers at Delicate Details use different CarPro products, not the same formula with a different sticker on the invoice. Picking the right one comes down to how long you plan to keep the vehicle, not just budget. Here's what actually separates them.
| Tier | Product | Sedan | SUV | Truck |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2-Year | CarPro CQuartz SiC | $799 | $899 | $1,099 |
| 5-Year | CarPro DQuartz | $1,299 | $1,399 | $1,499 |
| 10-Year | CarPro DQuartz + Gliss | $1,899 | $2,299 | $2,599 |
Every tier includes full decontamination, clay bar, iron fallout treatment, and paint correction appropriate to the vehicle's condition (an Enhancement polish minimum), all applied in a temperature-controlled shop bay.
The entry-level professional tier. It's the right call for lease drivers turning a vehicle in at 24–36 months, where a longer coating never gets used, plus anyone who wants a genuine step up from consumer wax without paying for years of protection they won't need. It still outperforms any wax or spray sealant available at a parts store, since consumer "ceramic" products typically run 10–30% SiO2 concentration against Delicate Details' 80–90% professional-grade formulas.
CarPro DQuartz is a harder, more chemically resistant formula than the 2-year product, and it's the package most Delicate Details customers choose. Over five years, waxing regularly plus one mid-cycle paint correction typically runs $1,100–$2,150 for intermittent protection that needs constant reapplication; the coating averages about $260 a year for continuous protection that doesn't need to be redone. It fits the ownership timeline of most Lubbock drivers who keep a vehicle for several years without committing to the flagship tier's price point.
The highest SiO2 concentration CarPro makes, finished with a Gliss topcoat, applied at the greatest film thickness in the lineup. Paint correction is mandatory with this tier, not optional, since it's a technical requirement: the coating amplifies whatever is underneath it more than any other product Delicate Details applies. It suits someone who just bought a new truck or luxury vehicle and plans to keep it a decade, collector and show vehicles, or anyone whose ownership horizon genuinely justifies protection that outlasts most cars' entire time on the road.

Book Now →The product itself changes at each tier. 2-year is CarPro CQuartz SiC ($799 sedan). 5-year is CarPro DQuartz ($1,299 sedan), a harder, more chemically resistant formula. 10-year is CarPro DQuartz finished with a CarPro Gliss topcoat ($1,899 sedan), the highest SiO2 concentration and thickest protective layer available. Higher tiers are not just longer warranties on the same product.
The 5-year CarPro DQuartz tier is the most popular package at Delicate Details. It suits the typical Lubbock ownership timeline without the premium cost of the 10-year flagship tier.
Yes, that's exactly who it's built for. Lease drivers turning a vehicle in at 24 to 36 months never use the extra years a longer coating provides, so the 2-year tier avoids paying for protection that outlasts the lease.
Every tier includes decontamination and correction appropriate to the paint's condition, from an Enhancement polish minimum. The 10-year tier requires mandatory correction because it amplifies whatever is underneath it the most.
