TRÉ is an absolute workhorse of a coating, it provides 3 years of complete protection against chemicals, swirls, UV damage and corrosion. Professionals love it's thicker consistency for ease of application and easy leveling process.
It's a perfect coating for shops looking to introduce an option they can propose to all their clients at an affordable price that leaves plenty of room for a healthy margin. TRÉ’s dense single-layer structure gives you a stronger, more durable shield that stands up to that abuse we see on coatings in Canada.
How Do I Use It?
-
Prep thoroughly. Decontaminate with a clay mitt and Fuego, and polish if needed.
-
Load your pad. Apply 10–15 drops of TRÉ to the applicator.
-
Apply evenly. Work in overlapping straight-line passes in 2 × 2 ft areas or follow body lines.
-
Watch for sweating. When the coating begins to “sweat” or bead, it’s ready to level.
-
Level and finish. First wipe with the Leveler Towel, then follow with a towel to remove any residue.
-
Cure time. Let it cure for 12–24 hours, keeping the surface dry.
-
Be patient. Avoid washing for 7–14 days to allow full bond formation.
The coating
The keep it forever coating
TRÉ is the top of the bottle coating line. Three years and beyond of protection from a single layer, with a level of gloss and chemical resistance that used to require a professional multi coat system.
It exists for the cars you plan to keep. The weekend car, the one you special ordered, the one that gets parked at the back of the lot on purpose.
The technology
One layer that beats multi coat systems
TRÉ uses single layer nano composite technology. Instead of stacking thin coats and hoping they cross link, one engineered layer delivers the hardness, the chemical resistance, and the hydrophobics on its own.
The result is a super slick surface that sheds water, resists scratching, and shrugs off the chemicals that slowly dull unprotected paint.
The application
Experienced hands get the best result
The routine is the same as any coating. Decontaminate, correct if needed, wipe the surface bare. Apply 10 to 15 drops to the pad, work in overlapping passes section by section, and level when it sweats.
TRÉ rewards careful work, so we recommend it as a second coating rather than a first. If this is your first time, start with UNO or DOS and come back for TRÉ when the muscle memory is there.
The details that matter
3+ years of durability
One application outlasts three Canadian winters. That is the whole pitch.
Nano composite layer
A single engineered layer that outperforms stacked multi coat systems.
Chemical resistance
Road salt, bird droppings, and fallout stop reaching your clear coat.
Scratch resistance
A harder surface that stands up to washing and everyday contact.
Super slick finish
Dirt struggles to stick, so the car stays cleaner between washes.
Ships from Waterloo
Stocked in Ontario, priced in CAD, and customs never enters the picture.

Questions people actually ask
Is TRÉ a good first coating?
It can be, but we usually point first timers at UNO or DOS. TRÉ flashes with less margin for error, and three years is a long time to live with a high spot.
What makes it worth the price?
Cost per year, TRÉ is actually the value pick. Three years and beyond from one 50mL bottle works out cheaper than recoating annually, with better gloss the whole way.
Do I need to polish first?
For a coating this durable, yes, we recommend it. You are locking in the finish for three years, so make it a finish worth locking in.
50mL or 100mL?
50mL handles a sedan. 100mL is the call for trucks, SUVs, or if you want enough left over for a second vehicle.
How do I maintain it?
pH neutral washes and an occasional SLIQ top up. The ease of maintenance is honestly the best part of owning it.
Three years of set it and forget it.
Order TRÉ, do the prep properly, and the paint on your keeper is handled until 2029.
