Dr. Beasley’s founder and chemist Jim Lafeber created Gloss Builder after our Authorized Detailer network practically demanded we release it.
You see, Gloss Builder started as a prep solution included with our ceramic coating kits. But our Authorized Detailers thought it could be something more.
Like many other professional coatings, Dr. Beasley’s ceramic coating kits use a two-step process: first a pre-application of a solution called “Paint Coating Builder” followed by application of the ceramic coating itself.
Our Authorized Detailers raved constantly about Paint Coating Builder, hyping up the gloss and how durable it made their ceramic coatings, even when working outside the Dr. Beasley’s system.
The only problem? It came in a tiny 2 oz bottle that was only available in our coating kits.
So they asked: “Jim, what do we have to do to get this product by itself?”
Always a solution-focused engineer, Jim got in the lab and reformulated Paint Coating Builder for maximum reflectivity.
Once Jim completed his updated formula, we asked ourselves: “Do we still call this Paint Coating Builder? Is this something different?”
There was only one other name we could think of: Gloss Builder.
Getting That Dripping Wet Look
It’s the ultimate goal of paintwork correction and ceramic coating: shine! We go through all the hassle of removing defects and ceramic coating to get the most brilliant, longest lasting shine possible.
Gloss Builder takes your hard work to a whole new level by enhancing the two properties that affect shine most:
- Surface Smoothness: Gloss Builder’s nanostructure helps level out the paint’s surface without the use of filling silicones and oil. The nanostructure creates smooth surface that’s optimized for reflectivity.
- Increased Depth: With each layer Gloss Builder increases the sense of depth to the paint’s gloss, creating the “swimming” effect car show entrants chase.
Now you’ve got a shine that truly matches the hard work you put in!
Building a Durable Ceramic Bond
Ceramic coatings live and die by how strongly they’re bonded with the car’s paint. If the bond with the paint isn’t durable, neither is the coating.
Gloss Builder helps ensure you’re getting the best bond possible. When applied before ceramic coating, it lays down anchor points for the coating to crosslink with. This crosslink bond is ultra durable and ensures the ceramic coating will last the duration of its expected longevity.
Use Dr. Beasley’s Nano Surface Primers for paintwork correction? Gloss Builder works in tandem with NSPs, establishing anchor points and priming the paint for bonding. Using the two in concert will increase coating durability!
Make Any Coating Shinier & Stronger
While there are many different types of ceramic coatings out there, they share one thing in common — they all crosslink with the paint to form the nanostructure bond.
Translation? Gloss Builder is compatible with any glossy ceramic coating, even those outside the Dr. Beasley’s line. Whether you apply Dr. Beasley’s or another great brand’s ceramic coating, Gloss Builder will make it shinier and stronger.
