I posted this in the Q5 specific forum, but thought others considering the Gtechniq coatings might be interested.

My local detail shop (Watershed Auto Care in Simi Valley, CA) applied Gtechniq Crystal Serum and Exo Nano Coating. The SQ5 looks amazing and will stay this way.

For reference, my SQ5 is 8 months old and has 12,600 miles on it.

Nice shine and lovely vehicle. Interested to hear how she holds up over time.

My GT coatings are going on 6 months now including a very snowy ski season, spirited speeds, and high alpine sunshine and still allows a spray down rinsing or two between washes. I did the wheels too to help with the brake dust. The beading is cutting back a bit, but the protection is still there. It may not go the advertised 2+ years, but thus far the best product I've used.

I had G Techniq applied to the S60 I traded for my new A4. Amazing product, nothing sticks to it. It went about a month before it needed a wash. Had it done to my C30 earlier this month, and already have an appointment to have it done to the Audi after I get the windows tinted. A bit pricey, but the shine and protection are worth every penny!

Just got my car back from having G Techniq done. This is my 3rd car to get this coating, it is simply amazing how it repels dirt, bugs, and road grime. Worth every penney! It really makes the white metallic pop!
