  • In this video I will be reviewing Shine Armor Fortify Quick Coat Water less Wash. Shine Armor Claims this is "The Ultimate Ceramic Coating Formula" as the bottle states. This product was a big disappointment to me as you will see in the video. All though I did not like the product I will not bash a company for a bad product just to get views.
    Thank you Shine Armor for sending this product to me to try I really do appreciate it.

      Just some random guy This is a waterless wash not a detail spray. The product is meant to be used to clean lightly dirty cars and leave protection behind. It cleaned it but didn’t leave much protection behind. The car wasn’t very dirty and I ha e used other products like this on even dirtier cars with no problem.

    Good review. But honestly I've used a lot of waxes and paint coatings and the shine armor in my honest opinion was the best. It was one of the slickest and definitely had the deepest shine. But I always wash my vehicles first bcuz they are usually really dirty. So I suppose it would be a better detailer product. I was honestly really really impressed with the shine over the competitors. So it isn't a complete waste of money, the price was decent, so each to their own I guess....

It is spectacular after just one coat. I had not paid attention to car waxes and such since about 2009. Wow, what a gap of improved chemistry I've missed out on! The second time was charm.

    Hey, thanks for doing this. I have been using this product along with their hydrophobic carnauba spray. It actually worked pretty well on my car surface (black paint). There is a substantial difference in before and after. Its a lot smoother and hydrophobic after the spray application. I wash and dry my car thoroughly, spray the carnauba coating first and then this ceramic coating. I agree with you that it lasts only between the washes but for $20 I have spray coated my car for ~10-12 times which isn't that bad..

    okay. so 2 things I noticed... now i am FAR from an expert, but i hope you revisit this product. first thing, when it says damp microfiber towel, it means damp with the actual product. Not with Water. Water dilutes it further thus decreasing its effectiveness. Second thing, this needs a 24hr curing time. I put about 5-7 coats on my 1994 corvette at this point and ive washed it numerous times and it still beads! The cure time and proper damp towel make all the difference!

    • @FABAutomotiveDetailing
      @FABAutomotiveDetailing  4 года назад

      John fedele I appreciate you commenting! The bottle says Apply to a clean damp microfiber towel. For it to be clean and damp before applying it would have to be damp with water. The bottle states no cure time at all. I get what you are saying but I base my reviews off directions on bottles. I to thought it needed to cure for 24 hrs but it says it no where on the bottle.

    I appreciate the honest review. I had used Shine Armor on my Black Lincoln sedan and thought it was just ok. A bit on the streaky side. Took some extra buffing out. I had washed the car before using it. Then one day my wife wanted a layer of SA on her Black Charger R/T. Began working on it and I don't know WTF happened. Was streaking really bad. It was a hot day but the car was not in direct sunlight. Didn't notice the streaks at first until I started progressing around the hood. Certain angles looked ok but other angles looked bad. It was not buffing out well. I was starting to freak out! Took me an hour to fix it. Will not buy that product again. I switched to Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray Coating. Worked very well and it wasn't expensive. I ended up throwing out the rest of the Shine Armor. Very disappointed.

    A friend of mine gave me a bottle of this in return for applying it to his new BRZ, it seemed to go on fine, I didn’t get a chance to see it in action on that car. So today I spent 4 hours polishing my car, with several passes of multiple speeds on an orbital buffer before applying this stuff, which is what you’d want to do before applying something like this anyways. After applying a healthy amount of it on the car (NOT spraying it directly on the panel, the bottle says to soak it into an applicator pad) it was probably an hour before the car saw moisture. Mud from my back alley came off so willingly off the rocker panel. So basically it worked as well as I’d expect, and I’m optimistic about how it’ll hold up. If it shows signs of giving out, I’ll just polish again then wax.

I am constantly fighting water spots on the glass, and polishing them out, and this made the glass look like new. As for the paint, I didn't noticed any difference, but I had waxed it a week before. I would continue to use this on my glass. Especially if I was trading the car in, it would make the glass look appear better than it is.

Bought this through TEMU so it was very cheap and good for it as it's no better than regular Turdelwax. So much rather wash cars with soap and water and then use Sonax car wax.

    Hey, honest question. I saw two reviews and both did not wet the first microfiber before spraying shine armor on it. You are the only one who wet the first microfiber. I wonder what it meant on the instructions by “moist microfiber”. Could it just meant moist as in microfiber with the shine armor on it instead of moist with water? FYI I already bought shine armor and I’m trying to watch instrument on how to apply. Thanks in advance.

      @FABAutomotiveDetailing  4 года назад

      vvlight The instructions say to “spray onto a damp towel and onto panel”. My take on that is if they are asking you to spray onto a damp towel the towel has to be dampened with water other wise it would say dampen towel with product. I hope this helps and you are welcome

    I used shine armor today on my 300s, i buffed/wiped it longer in a buffing motion till almost dry, then switched to my dry microfiber cloth and wiped/buffed until all was removed, I could tell a big difference, it passed the bottle test, but I didn’t try the water test, I’m going to do a second coat tomorrow and saturate the area more than what I did today, but all in all I haft to say that it worked better than I thought it would after seeing this video, just my opinion but I believe with the second coat of saturating the area more that I’ll have good results, I’ll check back in and give me opinion

    I just subscribed to your channel. What would you recommend for a waterless car wash that won't damage the paint. I have a black mercedes that has some swirls in the paint already but would like a product that won't make it worse. I will be getting either a paint correction done or a 3 step polish with ceramic coating done, depending on wha is recommended then. For now, what would you recommend to use for a waterless car wash?

    • @FABAutomotiveDetailing
      @FABAutomotiveDetailing  3 года назад

      Cesar V I like Griots Garage Spray on Carwash and Adam’s Polishes Waterless Wash. Waterless car washing is more technique then anything else to prevent swirls. I use several waffle weave towels and plenty of product for lubrication. Then with no pressure wipe in one direction and never use the same spot on the towel. Thank you for subscribing and I hope this helped.

    I noticed it says "doesn't streak" but even though I love the product, I have found that it does leave streaks especially on dark colors! My "charcoal grey pearl metallic" Lincoln Town Car does tend to streak! Sometimes I have to use several towels and a lot of elbow grease to get the streaks off completely! I've even used my orbital polisher in trying to remove the streaks! So it can be somewhat labor intensive! You really gotta look at the finish from all angles to make sure you got all the streaks off!

    I've used a waterless wash from Nanoskin and mixed it with their Quickshine to make a waterless wash-N-wax years ago and it works great for me as a quick cleaner for light dirt. But like any other waterless wash or quick spray wax it "DOESN'T" last and water will not bead forever. For water beading I use the Hydro Express from Nanoskin.
    I wonder if the Shine Armor needs to settle before doing any kind of water test 🤔

      Yah is Love If it has light scratches the paint needs a correction with a polisher. Waterless washes just clean the surface and some leave protection behind. There are some good all in one Polishes that can be done by hand and a re actually affective at removing minor scratches. Turtle Wax Ceramic Polish and Wax is really good for that.

    I use this product, and now where does it say to utilize water when applying. You should always use just the product when applying. NO Water!! If you can, apply it in the evening when the sun goes down, you are able to let it sit on your paint for a longer period of time, hence allowing the product to adhere to the paint more effectively.

    • @FABAutomotiveDetailing
      @FABAutomotiveDetailing  3 года назад

      William Lemanowicz The bottle says to use a damp towel. It does not say spray on towel to dampen so if the towel is damp it has to be damp with water. I have tried it both ways and had the same results.

      Of course they may have changed the instructions on the bottle since you used it.
      Personally I always wash the car first and then wipe over with this stuff to give it an extra coat, might be overkill but I always get a great finish with it. I don't however buy into all that nonsense about burning the car.
