Like if you think Sandro is the most trustworthy and knowledgeable detailing RUclipsr today. You ALWAYS get the impression he’s giving his 100% professional opinion without any other influence. That is rare and so very much appreciated!!
I was just going to comment something similar. I watch a lot of detail channels but I always must trust Sandro. His suggestions have never steered me wrong.
The main problem i see with this video is... Now i need to go shopping, honest reviews, real-world results, what more can a guy ask for. Keep up the good work!
Nothing beats the ROI and ease of Gyeon Cancoat for those of us average folks who don’t have the means or desire to invest in tons of equipment and products.
Many of these have become my go to product since I started watching your work Sandro. CQuartz UK3.0 is about to enter its 4th year on the cars of one client. Cars are always garaged, cleaned fortnightly using the multiple mitt method and a sacrificial coat of CarPro HydrO2 Foam always applied after the wash. Keep up the great work Sandro. I know many of us hang out for each of your video releases as they are just so damn well done. Lloyd
Concur completely with the 303 Protectant. I've been using it for 20 years, and when I first used it, it surpassed and out lasted Armor all so much, I never bought Armor All again. It's not greasy, dust and dirt will not stick to it, and even on exterior plastic parts, it hangs on better and will not streak once dew or rain hits it and runs off. LOVE the stuff. It's the only one on your list I've had experience with, so I'll be looking for your other recommendations to give them a try.
I've used 3 of these products and completely agree. The P21S metal polishing soap in particular is unique and can find many uses if you have sheet metal or other raw metal parts around as well.
I've only used 1 of these products (303 Aerospace Protectant, and it was a brilliant performer), but wouldn't mind having all 5 of them in my detailing arsenal. Cheers Sandro, have a great weekend.
303 Aerospace Protectant is good stuff, but I do think it attracts dust. Pinnacle makes a coating for plastics that works better, but isn't easy to find, and it's much pricier than 303. One great thing about 303 is that you can get it in tubs of wipes. They're perfect for engine compartments, especially on hoses and wire looms. Another great product you didn't mention is Carpro Eraser. It is super-easy to use, smells great, and leaves a perfect surface for coatings. It's worked well with every coating I've paired it with. Keep the reviews coming! I hate buying a product that is a pain to use and doesn't perform. I've bought more than my share of them, that's for sure.
My #1 detailing product is my old trusty microfiber drying towel that I use on exterior glass. No streaks ever. Had it for 15 years and it's still kickin'!
Love the assortment of vehicles in this video 😍 thank you for always sharing all of your work and knowledge. I love watching your vids on my breaks then I’m Detailing. Has helped me progress soo much more over the years.
I agree with your opinion on c.quartz. 1.5 years is the minimum you will get out of it if you dont look after it, but on the other hand I coated my sister inlaws car 2.5 years ago and its still going quite strong. I showed her how to wash her car and take car of it and it really does extend the life. I feel as though companies advertise the maximum life you can get but most people who get coatings probably dont realise how much you need to take care of it to get that life out of it.
Always respect and appreciate your opinion, especially your honesty in calling out the detailing market. The amount of deceptive and dishonest trade practices that go on in detailing product marketing, especially ceramic coatings is staggering, needs to stop.
Great video as always 5 products is so tough The one thing I couldn't do with out is my torch as the lights at work are rubbish I can my torch the humbling light as it can bring you back down earth with a bang stay vigalint stay safe in Sandro we trust
A very good list!! Carpro UK 3.0 was my first coating I applied. I use 303 for my interior dressing also. I will definitely try the others you mentioned when the need is there. Thank you!
Thanks for the upload, great content as usual. I use 4 out of the 5 products you highlighted here and they're brilliant; mostly due to your previous uploads where you've showcased these. Thanks again keep em coming!!
Very very very interesting that you said EXACTLY the same about UK3.0 as I did a few days ago in a video on our channel: it‘s just a very very good allrounder, a safe bet, and doesn‘t have any real weaknesses, and therefore a very good option for about anyone.
Great tips, thanks. If one doesn’t want to spend too much time cleaning your vehicle, I love Bowdens nanolicious, carpro ech2o and Perl along with a multipurpose cleaner called Titan Green. The nanolicious wash keeps the paint hydrophobic for at least a month for me (vehicle garaged at night) and has a great shine.
Coming from the UK, it’s a pity Bilt Hamber products are so hard and expensive in Oz. They would certainly be on your list driven by performance and cost.
Defintely want to give Wise guy a try. I love Purify (and Purge too), 303 is excellent as well, although I am out at the moment and have alternatives in stock I'm trying to use up.
Thank You for your efforts. Happy to discover I (we) my son and I, already use a couple of the products you talked about here and to discover new one to try for ourselves. 303 with first a proper clean, really like for underhood black plastics. The P21 stems back to my brothers and I's youth and our Motorcycles.
Nerta Diamond Active Foam wash. I pay $260 for 25L. Makes a great strip wash, change the ratio and it'll safely degrease your engine bay (i used it to detail skyline enginebay), and will strip baked on brake dust on your rims. Change your ratio again and you can use it to clean parts, I pulled of the manifold on a Nissan patrol 3ltr deisel, it was inches thick in carbon, soaked in Nerta for 20 minutes and it looked bran new. Change ratio again and it pulls stains out of your carpet.
Great video, as always, and I think that what you mentioned about old products versus the new ones you just hit the nail on the head, it’s hard to find anything special or better from what we already used or experienced before especially if you’ve been around the car detailing for awhile, there are way too many hyped up products on the car detailing market at the moment imo
Another great video Sandro to save even more our money! Appreciate you are dealing your own thoughts with all of us man, this is quite important and absolutely not an easy thing to do. Cheers from Sweden, where the smell of spring is on the air together with upcoming deep car cleaning with decontamination after long winter and ... of course Carpro CQuartz UK.3.0 in 2 layers)
Maestro, another great video. Based on your videos I bought Carpro Fixer, Essence and Reload... Oh!!!... Cars super glossy 😮😊. Greetings from Monterrey México.
I'm not familiar with TAC SYSTEM have never heard of that brand, reason for my comment is I can't quite figure out if you are in fact being serious or if you're taking the p155 with your apparent love of Turtlewax products?? Sarcasm yes?
Sandro , apologies for the back and forth re Wise Guy wheel cleaner. Just to confirm your response. Since Shien Supply says to NOT use Wise Guy on coated wheels, they do suggest to use their other wheel /tire cleaner “Cool Guy”. Do you like Cool Guy as much as Wise Guy ? Or should I use Wise Guy anyway despite my ceramic coated wheels - but dilute it 1:10 for maintenance wheel/tire. Again , many thanks. Owen
Cool Guy is a great wheel cleaner and will typically be safer on more sensitive wheel finishes - so yes I would recommend it. Sorry I think I got confused with the two products on your last comment.
Love your content mate. Though your statement about P21S lasting a long time was not my experience, given how good it is I ended up using my first container all the time. Lasted around 1yr. Bought another one from Waxit a few weeks ago!
FYI, 303 recommends applying every 3 - 5 weeks for UV protection, plus the price has increased exponentially, to me those are negatives. But the Wise Guys deserves a look? Thanks for your reviews...
Good job sandro here’s my list m205 still use even though there’s newer fancier products and S2 Black maybe fusso and meguiars wheel brighter and citrol 266 I’m in US citrol266 is the craziest cleaner used from tar to interior it’s da bomb
I am starting to rethink ceramic coating as a whole. based upon the rating weirdness of non-standardization, I want something that does not last more than a year. that's realistic and manageable.
I've used Gyeon Q2 Wax on an F150 and Lariat and STI to survive a brutal Canadian winter. The coating lasted from Oct and I started seeing it fade on my STI around February. For maintenance I only rinsed it with pressured water and all the dirt and salt washes right off... Amazing wax sealant.
Gyeon q2 wax is Not durable at all so what you’re saying doesn’t stack up . Completely False claims at its finest 🥱🥱 It’s more of gimmick with very poor chemical resistance in real world situations it has piss poor durability
What's your take between Bilt Hamber Auto wheel & Vonixx Delete vs Wise Guy wheel cleaner...?? I'd also like to hear your thoughts between the 303 and CarPro Perl please...
I love Perl on older vehicle (pre-2000) as it tends to match the finish and sheen of the trims in that period, but tend to prefer 303 on most later model vehicles (post-2000) as they tend to have more matte factor finishes in line with its finish. Both are fantastic in IMO. I’ve tried a couple of Bilt Hamber products (haven’t tried wheel & vonixx delete), the brand is very pricey here locally and not the easiest to get a hold of.
Thanks so much for all the great info. Quick question regarding wiseguy wheel cleaner. on their site, it says white guy should not be used with ceramic coated wheels and instead they suggest using cool guys. You also suggest the alternative wheel cleaner from them. And can it be used for both tires and wheels? Thanks so much a big fan from the US.
Yes it can be used for wheels and other areas as well, but as mentioned it should also be diluted accordingly- I’d say about 1:5 to 1:10 for a wheel maintenance cleaner and that can also include maintenance cleans on tyres - you don’t need to use it 1:1 unless you are stripping back the tyres/wheels during a decontamination clean.
Could you recommend any product for removing tree sap which is safe for ceramic coated paint? Another question I have is about ceramic coating, in Melbourne some detailers are offering ceramic coating that is self healing. Are these technologies proven? Thanks
A tar remover like Tar-X can work well for tree sap, be safe on a quality ceramic coating, but may require multiple applications and patience. Self healing coatings do work and it’s actually a characteristic that many coatings do in fact share. It typically requires stacking the coating with 2-3 layers but is also important to understand that the self healing ability is usually up to 12mths even though the coating will last longer, so it’s more of a feature that is really good at first and then fades and realistically is only successful on lighter swirls.
Hi, yet another great video. Thank you very much. Wondering why you do not mention any BILT Hamber products in any of your product evaluations. Do you not like them or they are not available locally
Sandro, good afternoon! Hello from Russia) Thank you so much for your channel.There are a lot of useful and interesting videos.I want to know your opinion - You said that a leather cleaner can perfectly clean the interior of a car.I agree.Is it possible, for example, to apply a leather conditioner on plastic, as a dressing?Moreover, there are few such compounds on sale- 3D LVP, Fireball Nappa coat.Thank you in advance!)
Thanks, I think it depends on the specific leather product, I have used Nv Nourish and Carpro Perl on plastics with great results so they work well on both leathers and a variety of other trim materials. I don’t think I’ve tried 3D LVP or Fireball Napa so I unfortunately can’t say.
Some clear coats are more sensitive than others and all chemicals (including IPA) will to some extend negatively effect every surface they are applied to. But not cleaning or using chemicals will also have negative effects on all surfaces and process. It’s trying to find a good balance of using the least aggressive method/product as required that still works effectively that is the goal which is not always a clear cut thing.
Great video as always Sandro. I love Wise Guy but due to the almost doubled price on Waxit for $105 for a gallon, do you have any more affordable alternatives that come close to its performance? Keep up the amazing work :)
Yes it’s just crazy how much everything has gone up, it was closer to half that price a couple of years ago. But I’m looking at other APC/Degreaser and they’ve all gone up in price. I think using WiseGuy more heavily diluted at 1:2 1:3 or even 1:4 could still be a better option than many other cheaper alternatives.
Hey Sandro, great video as usual. Question regarding NV Purify, im about 6 months into a Gyeon ceramic coating and wanting to do a decon wash/clay. Would you recommend Purify and clay towel for ceramic coating decon washes? Cheers mate
No, I personally not big on claying a ceramic coating (unless I’m trying to remove it) as it will leave at least some degree of clay marks/swirls and also compromise/degrade the coating, again to some extent. I just prefer a chemical decontamination without mechanical claying.
Like most stronger decontamination chemicals it is safe on PPF when used as directed. Any risk is more about being careful around the PPF edges as not to encourage edges lifting.
Hi, just recently started following and watching you videos that i have been enjoying! I was wondering if you have tryed any of the Australian brand detailing products from Mirch? I have seen other reviwes for their products that have been good but have noticed that not of their products have shown up in any of you videos that i have seen (still have quiet a few vidoes to catch up on).
Nv Car Care and Bowden’s Own are the two Aussie brands I’ve most reviewed, I do have Mirch and a few other local brands on my list but still yet to find time to test them thoroughly.
I have wise guy but Adam's wheel n Tiee cleaner comes in up to 5 gallon size using it just slightly diluted like 30 percent water 70 percent Adam's wheel n tire cleaned both wheels and tires far better than Wise guy on a salvage car that was absolutely thrashed I mean it wasn't even close
It should be well known that no product let alone and interior spray product will block UVA rays or reject heat, this does neither. It adds some sheen to the plastic and leather albeit minor which i prefer none. Rather have a clean dash/infotainment that slapping on some "uv protection" film over top that does next to nothing for "protection" and has a few negatives. God forbid someone use it on a tonneau cover or a boat, it will wash away from rain.. A windshield tint will do far more for blocking UV rays and rejecting heat than any of these products. Tint manufacturers state how much UV their products block, as do sunscreen manufacturers and sunglass manufacturers. Until detailing product manufacturers do the same, I'll just treat "UV protection" as marketing BS. Not sure why there are glowing reviews of this product for over 20 years...what because it doesnt go on a gloppy glossy mess?.its claim isnt proven and actually proved to be the opposite with some testing online. Detailing product marketing is truly the wild west for you to buy more products..crazy.

General question for everybpdy. If you could only use one brand for every detailing product you use, what brand would it be?
Adam's wheel and tire cleaner is my go to wheel cleaner almost a scrubless wheel & tire cleaner
Thank you. 👍😁

Sandro, it's really a blessing to watch your content, and to hear your thoughts. Thank you very much for contributing your videos.
Have you ever tried Carpro Retyre instead of wise guy? Its also a very great tyre cleaner.
Yes I have and agree that ReTyre is also a great tyre cleaner
What's your take between Bilt Hamber Auto wheel & Vonixx Delete vs Wise Guy wheel cleaner...??
I'd also like to hear your thoughts between the 303 and CarPro Perl please...

@@CarCraftAutoDetailing thanks Sandro take care mate
Good vid!
you should try koch chemie product :)
Sandro, is Purify safe on ppf?? Thanks dan
Like most stronger decontamination chemicals it is safe on PPF when used as directed. Any risk is more about being careful around the PPF edges as not to encourage edges lifting.
303 works good on finished leather?
It’s great on leather
Superclean>wiseguy or whatever lol. Used 100's of gallons and diluted never did any damage either and also works like magic, will put wiseguy to shame
Hi, just recently started following and watching you videos that i have been enjoying! I was wondering if you have tryed any of the Australian brand detailing products from Mirch? I have seen other reviwes for their products that have been good but have noticed that not of their products have shown up in any of you videos that i have seen (still have quiet a few vidoes to catch up on).
Nv Car Care and Bowden’s Own are the two Aussie brands I’ve most reviewed, I do have Mirch and a few other local brands on my list but still yet to find time to test them thoroughly.
Have you tried Dquartz Go?
I’ve been testing it out a little, but haven’t spent as much time with it as I’d like.
The video the ends it all.
Does the Nv Purify smells like rotten egg too?
It’s probably the least offensive smelling product in this category - but they all have some nasty smell to them
I have wise guy but Adam's wheel n Tiee cleaner comes in up to 5 gallon size using it just slightly diluted like 30 percent water 70 percent Adam's wheel n tire cleaned both wheels and tires far better than Wise guy on a salvage car that was absolutely thrashed I mean it wasn't even close
🧢
Did you use wise guy at the same dilution?
It should be well known that no product let alone and interior spray product will
block UVA rays or reject heat, this does neither. It adds some sheen to the
plastic and leather albeit minor which i prefer none. Rather have a clean
dash/infotainment that slapping on some "uv protection" film over top that
does next to nothing for "protection" and has a few negatives. God forbid
someone use it on a tonneau cover or a boat, it will wash away from rain..
A windshield tint will do far more for blocking UV rays and rejecting heat than
any of these products. Tint manufacturers state how much UV their products
block, as do sunscreen manufacturers and sunglass manufacturers. Until
detailing product manufacturers do the same, I'll just treat "UV protection" as
marketing BS.
Not sure why there are glowing reviews of this product for over 20 years...what
because it doesnt go on a gloppy glossy mess?.its claim isnt proven and
actually proved to be the opposite with some testing online. Detailing product
marketing is truly the wild west for you to buy more products..crazy.
Who hurt you man 😂
@@SlyperehGypseh? He's right. None of those products provide any significant UV protection. Why are you bothered by facts?
