A suggetion from here on out, afte every wash and rinse, spray Graphene Flex Wax on all pannels, then spray water from the bottom up to spread it, this includes wheels, and dry with Micro Fiber Towel. Also pick up TW Pure Shine misting detailer and hit in between washes. Those two products on top of the wax you just laided down, will look like you just machine polished the car.
Thanks for the suggestion. I purchased some Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Wet Wax that I plan on using as a drying aid. I also plan on testing out bead maker.
Turtle Wax doesn't talk about how long it will last under ideal conditions. I'm hoping for 3-4 months out of it. I did find that the TW Ceramic Spray Coating is their longest lasting product that I've tried. I did two coatings of the Ceramic Acrylic Black Wax on our black Jeep Wrangler and I was disappointed with it. Maybe got 4 months tops with regular washing using quality PH neutral car soaps. I've gotten 7 months our of the Ceramic Spray Coating. The Griots Garage 3-IN-1 Ceramic Wax performs better than both but is a bit tricky to work with.
Now, see, my perspective is just the opposite. I'm more concerned about the great shine than its overall durability. Depends on what you're looking for. Both the paste and S&S are really good products. And yes, 3 months +/- would be about right for the paste. Although... sooooo many variables. Shine on you crazy diamonds!
@@tmdillon1969 They are two different products. The wax has fillers in it similar to a glaze, and its main purpose is to enhance the appearance and add gloss with some protection, the main purpose of the ceramic spray is extended protection. it will add slickness and shine, but it’s main purpose is a layer of long lasting protection. Depending on the environment, you should see 6 to 12 months with it. Basically the ceramic spray, long-term protection, the wax, short term protection.
I have been using DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss on my two white Toyota vehicles. I was laid up for a couple of months due to an illness and recently found that the hood and roof were horribly coated with environmental contaminants. This was nearly impossible to get off. Now that I have cleaned, polished, and spray with Ceramic Gloss, should I wax the flat surfaces of the vehicles to act almost as a "sacrificial lamb?" Meaning that hopefully the wax will absorb the contaminates and allow the material to be easily washed away. This is the first time I've ever had such contaminates. Literally overnight, my horizontal surfaces would have a layer of these contaminates on the hood and roof. I was having to wash every morning before work. Fortunately, it appears that whatever was causing this is now letting up. Maybe it's seasonal, or weather related, or who knows?
I think with any product, if u dont wash in time, u will have more work afterwards and the contaminants edge in. I washe every week - 2 weeks - 1 month and all goes good. But if i would wait months, the contaminants would edge in the clearcoat…
The properties of water beading, shine and gloss will be from the last product applied. I would go with two coats of the Ceramic Gloss and use Paste wax as a topper. The Ceramic Gloss may prevent the paste wax from properly bonding to the paint which will decrease the longevity of the product. Best is to keep up with washing it or worse case use the DIY Detail waterless wash with a quality microfiber towel like the Rag Company Eagle Edgeless 500. you can also use the Ceramic Gloss as a drying aid which will help re-establish it's protection.
I've never tried Fusso99 but I can tell you that the TW has some great fillers, It provides just polished like appearance on my Black Jeep Wrangler hood. the scratches and the small bits of water spot etching disappeared. I was very surprised.
Fusso 99 is the daddy in my opinion but bit of a pain to remove less is more i learned the hard way lol longevity of the original fusso coat soft 99 is up to a year 👌👍🤔 i was getting between 5 to 7 months out of the turtle wax it's a great wax to work with application and removal
@@brianmchale6668 not really. At first you have to in a way prime the pad with a bit more, kind of like when you polish. It comes off smoothly with no residue. You just want full coverage and let it properly dwell. Yes, less is more but to say I’m globing it on is a bit of an exaggeration. I would rather have a bit more on the applicator than have a dry area and potentially scratch or swirl the pant of a black vehicle.
I have been using the Ceramic Spray and it is incredible. TW has moved the ceramic coating needle up several notches with these ceramic products.
@@e4300 I totally agree with you on that. The ceramic spray is awesome. I use it on my wheels. Adds so much slickness and keeps them cleaner.
Awesome paste wax. I bought this and it works amazing
Excellent review!! Thank you!!

Great shine, but have found that their seal and shine spray coating outlast this.

@@audieconrad8995 Well said. I'm going to top it with the Ceramic wet wax as a drying add after every wash.
How is this different from the TW Hybrid Solutions Ceramic spray? Is it a similar product with a different application process?

Using a Dual Action polisher would of been more effective and faster too!!!!
Great video 👍
Thanks for the positive feedback
Can this be used on headlights?? Can't find any concrete information on this
I have not tried it on headlights. I've only used it on painted surfaces. On the headlights, I'll use a ceramic spray like Griots 3-in-1 Wax.

Less is more? you are globbing it on.

Get those same results from ANY paste wax
