Why Use Gtechniq HALO v2 Flexible Film Coating?
By utilising the latest in weatherproof composite siloxane technology HALOv2 enhances the performance of Paint Protection Film (PPF) and vinyl. It’s a chemically bonding, ultra-dense flexible film that becomes the permanent surface of the film – protecting it from the elements a car faces on a daily basis. The density of the coating and its low surface energy improve dirt and water repellency of PPF or vinyl. It also helps to prevent staining from dirt ingress and reduce yellowing caused by UV rays.
A key component of the HALOv2 is that it now only requires one layer of product to be applied, rather than the previous version which required two layers, saving time, effort and making maintenance a breeze.
Overall, HALO keeps the PPF looking in a much better condition and makes it much easier for people to keep their car clean following PPF/ vinyl application.
Rigorous real-world and laboratory testing has proven HALO to be compatible with all types of gloss, matte, and satin vinyl and PPF. It is also proven to work on the latest self-healing and pre-treated hydrophobic films.

Simple Steps To Help You Get The Best Results
- Shake bottle well and wear gloves
- To apply HALO, your vehicle must be indoors and remain indoors, for at least 12 hours after the coating has been applied. For best results, good lighting is essential
- If applying to previously installed film, wash and decontaminate the vehicle with Gtechniq W5 Citrus All Purpose Cleaner and W6 Iron and General Fallout Remover
- With your surface fully cooled and dry, spray a 30% dilution of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) on to a Gtechniq MF1 ZeroR Microfibre Buff Cloth. This will remove any fingerprints or other surface contaminants ensuring you get the maximum number of chemical bonds between HALO and the film or vinyl
- Apply HALO evenly onto the application pad and set the bottle aside
- Apply with the applicator provided in overlapping strokes to an area roughly 2ft x 2ft.
- After coating a panel remove residue with an MF1 cloth. Always remove from further than you have applied, working from the outside in
- Once applied carry out a final check with an MF1 cloth and a bright but diffused light source – this will identify any excess residue left on the surface.
- An unopened bottle of HALO has a 12-month shelf life from the time of purchase
- Store in a cool/dry place, out of direct sunlight
- If opened, use within 3 months, if unopened, use within 12 months
- * Avoid direct application, paint or rubbers. *
