Not a coating. A clear coat.

Traditional polishing removes clear coat to chase a shine. Formula 1051 does the opposite: it adds 8+ microns of self-leveling 2K resin film that builds thickness, fills imperfections, and creates depth that polishing alone can never achieve.

True Film Build

Adds measurable thickness to your paint instead of removing it. Your clear coat gets stronger, not thinner.

Self-Leveling

The resin flows into micro-imperfections, creating a surface so flat it reflects light like glass.

Correctable

Light scratches polish out without penetrating the coating. Your protection stays intact.

Self-Healing

Minor swirls and wash marks disappear with heat exposure, keeping the finish pristine.

One film, standing between your paint and every ordinary hazard it meets.
