CARPRO Essence PLUS: Non-Abrasive Gloss Agent 250ml (8oz)

CARPRO Essence PLUS is a non-abrasive gloss agent that adds SiO2 depth and glass-like clarity to paint without removing a thing. It exists for a scenario every enthusiast eventually faces: the paint is already perfect — brand new, freshly corrected, or garage-kept — and you want more gloss without gambling any clear coat to get it.

CARPRO Essence PLUS: Gloss Without Spending Any Clear Coat

Clear coat is finite. Every abrasive polish spends a little of it, which is why polishing a defect-free car is a bad trade. Essence PLUS delivers the wet, glassy look of a fresh polish — with an SiO2 protection layer built in — using zero cutting action, so you can chase gloss as often as you like without thinning the paint.

How to use Essence PLUS:

• Start with clean, defect-free paint: new vehicles, post-correction finishes, or well-maintained garage queens.
• Apply by machine or by hand — both methods are supported.
• Work it across the panel, then wipe to reveal the deepened, glass-like finish.
• Use it as the final step of a full detail or as a standalone gloss treatment between bigger jobs.

Which Essence is for you? If the paint carries light swirls or haze, regular Essence corrects while it primes. If the paint is already flawless, PLUS gives you the gloss and SiO2 with no cut at all. And if you want pure refinement with nothing left behind, Reflect is the traditional finishing polish of the trio.

What's the difference between Essence and Essence PLUS?

Essence contains ultra-fine abrasives that remove light defects while priming; Essence PLUS is completely non-abrasive. Same family, opposite jobs: one fixes and primes, the other enhances and protects.

Is Essence PLUS safe for brand-new car paint?

Yes — that is exactly its lane. With no cutting action it cannot introduce marring or remove clear coat, making it the safest way to add depth to a new finish.

Can Essence PLUS be applied by hand?

It can. Machine application is quicker over a whole car, but hand application works fine for spot enhancement or smaller vehicles.
