GTECHNIQ Crystal Serum Light CSL and EXOv5 - 5 Year Protection DIY Bundle

GT-CSLEXO30v5

Size: 30ml Bundle (EXOV5+CSL)
In-stock: Inventory updated

Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light (CSL) + EXOv5 Bundle

Get the best of both worlds with this DIY ceramic coating bundle. Crystal Serum Light delivers unparalleled gloss and swirl resistance through its 9H optically clear ceramic layer, while EXOv5 adds an extreme hydrophobic topcoat for water-beading performance that CSL alone can't match.

Together, they form a complete paint protection system with up to 5 years of durability — all in a DIY-friendly kit.

Why Bundle CSL + EXOv5?

  • 9H ceramic hardness — CSL bonds chemically to paintwork for long-term gloss retention
  • Extreme hydrophobics — EXOv5 delivers water-sheeting performance beyond what CSL provides alone
  • Swirl resistance — both products contribute to a surface that resists wash-induced marring
  • 5-year protection — when applied correctly as a system
  • DIY-friendly — CSL can be machine polished off if needed, unlike professional-grade CSU

What's Included

  • 1x Gtechniq Crystal Serum Light (CSL)
  • 1x Gtechniq EXOv5 Ultra Durable Hydrophobic Coating (30ml or 50ml — select from menu)
  • 1x AP2 Ultra Soft Foam Filled Applicator Pad
  • 1x pair nitrile gloves
  • 1x Master Instruction Leaflet
  • 1x WS1 Gtechniq Window Sticker

      Very Impressed.

      "Great product with exceptional results. Following the instructions resulted in a brilliant job done in my garage. Took 2 days, thorough clean, panels prepared, applied both products with ease (wax-on…. . wax-off process!!). Highly recommend!"

      The look of wax, but the hydrophobic and chemical resistance of a ceramic.

      "Easily one of the best ceramic kits on the market. The look and slickness are impressive as well as its durability when appropriate maintenance is conducted throughout its life cycle."

      Best ceramic coating

      "I've tried 4 different brands of ceramic coatings, this is easily the best. Easiest application and wipe off, best finish. Definitely worth the extra dollars. I would recommend getting a slightly larger microfiber applicator and it cuts down the application time significantly."

      1st time I’ve used a

      "1st time I’ve used a ceramic coating. Watched loads of YouTube content to get my head around application. Outcome aesthetically is brilliant and worked particularly well on external plastic cladding. I did expect EXO stage to be a little easier but my ignorance won out. You have to be just as meticulous applying EXO as CSL. Will definitely use on more of my cars."

      Great ceramic protection

      "Used this system on a few cars now. All turned out fantastic. Good preparation is rewarded when your gloss level turns out this good. Good value as a bundle. My usage is 50ml of crystal light (one coat) per car and 50ml of EXO4 (two coats) per car. You can get two coats of EXO4 per bottle as the crystal light has soaked into the paint and seals really well."
