I would probably go with Dream Maker since I've heard it has anti static properties, so it attracts less dust which sounds great for me working next to a gravel yard. However, Griots Garage Speed Shine hasn't let me down when I grab it.
I'm just a novice at detailing, and mostly do it on my own hot rods. The question I have is that I've used Dream Maker in the past when preparing for a car show, and found that it REALLY attracts dust. I love the gloss enhancement, but I hate dusting the car off so frequently. Turtle Wax claims to repel dust. Would it be possible to do a comparison of products that claim to reduce dust? Thank you for another great video!
You need to use a 20 degree gloss meter, a 60 degree meter reading does not correlate well with visual. The resolution is much finer with a 20 degree meter. My background is paint and coatings. You can have the same 60 degree reads on surfaces, but the 20 degree will give you a 10+ unit difference. Repeatable and reproducible readings are obtained by taking at least three readings in different spots on the panel and averaging them. I ran QC/QA for a large coatings company.
Not very impressive. There are other "toppers" that actually provide a little added protection as a sacrificial layer, and they have been proven to boost gloss. I have tried many, and have settled on 3 toppers for each protection category... Waxed paint --- I really like Adam's Polishes' "Spray Wax" (I think it scored well in your own gloss tests, too). Sealed paint --- Bead Maker on light colors and Xtreme Solutions "Topper" on darker colors. Coated paint --- Jescar "Ceramic Spray Wax" (formerly "Bead It"). This is such an underrated product!
You just saved me $20. I was excited with seeing that TW and Meguairs had introduced these new detail sprays. After your demonstration, I’ll pass on them both. Thanks.
The lighting wasn't the greatest in this video. IMJOSHV just posted a test with the same products, and Meguiar's was the only product that visibly reduced swirl marks. Lighting is tough
I just got done applying TW Flex with Graphene for the 5th time on my new Traverse. This time I followed up with a coat of TW Pure Shine because I’m looking to reduce static. I have a vacation home on a dirt road that I have to drive on for a 1/4 mile. After a weekend the rear lift gate is just covered with road dust. It’s so annoying. Pure Shine claims to reduce static. I guess I will find out this weekend. I was not immediately impressed with the slickness when I finished yesterday. But after it set up overnight, it’s very slippery now. About as slippery as F11 Top Cost. It also appears to have a deepening & darkening effect on the paint color. I applied by hand and it flashed so much easier than the TW Flex product.
There is more to gloss with the naked eye then just the meter reading. The way our eyes perceive shiny reflective paint is also a “gloss” factor. Depth of color also a factor.
thanks for the video. I recently bought the P&S and applied it to my white car (it already has Meguairs Polish, Show Car Glaze, Ultimate Liquid Wax) ... without the P&S , the paint is already quite glossy. With the P&S , it just added just a tiny bit more. Not spectacular. Then I got the Meguairs Insane Shine Paint Glosser and applied it to my blue car (same Meguairs Polish, Show Car Glaze, Ultimate Liquid Wax treatment as the white car). The result from the Meguairs is quite noticeable: the blue is darker and added gloss brights a bit specular shine to the paint. In my area, the Meguairs is 3 times less expensive than the P&S. so my choice is very clear :) I'll put some Meguairs on the white car to see what it'll do. Not sure if it will make the white 'darker' !!! In the past, I've used Meguairs ultimate quick detialer on top and with repeated use , the product produces quite a bit of shine....but lacks the warm glossiness of these gloss enhancers.
I don't have experience with pure shine nor meguiars. I only have tried dream maker, and it's the only p&s product I've ever used. I agree with your results, I can tell the difference when I use it vs when I don't. I usually go over Titan with this and the results are pretty awesome.
I had higher expectations for the new TW product, i"ll have to pass. The P&S Dreammaker i have used quite a bit. I like to mix it with Beadmaker to help with the dust attraction issue. Honestly though when my gallons are empty i will not re-up. My customers were very happy with the appearance and slickness, and it is very affordable in gallon sizes. Great video Brian you saved me few dollars.
@@dtna i just tried it at 50/50. Ive seen a video where Dave Phillips the chemist at P&S recommended 10 parts beadmaker to 1 part dreamaker if my memory is correct. I am done with beadmaker though once my bottles are done. On my personal vehicles that are coated i use Extreme Solutions Topper or Gyeon ceramic detailer or Ethos pro shine. I just started using Ethos graphene Resist and it blew me away. all the ones i mentioned are far better than beadmaker but cost more. You could contact Miller detailing on this blog too see what dilutions he uses. HE IS A GREAT GUY. HOPE THIS HELPS YOU
I saw the rag company/P.S guys saying to use dream maker over beadmaker for dust/pollen. I assume you could use one of these others to under the same premise but doesn’t seem worth it . Kind reminds me of the hybrid V07 people used to use
I like adding 1.5oz of Dream Maker to my Bead Maker, this is a nice combo for best of both worlds and adds anti-static properties to help repel some dust for a bit.
Eagle One Wipe and Shine was always my go-to, sadly discontinued now. Good gloss, some added protection, helped remove dust and light grime safely. It was just too good for this world.
they are great for maintenance washes. As a drying aid/topper. i love pure shine as a last step product, can't always be using products that leave behind protection when you wash 2-3 times per month.
As you stated Brian i honestly don’t have much of a use for these products. I have done the Dream maker and Bead maker mix which isn’t bad for gloss boost and a quick detailer.
I’d like to see an update doing each panel with each product, especially since the initial gloss was so low on the first panel. It’s easier to get a better result on a panel with a lower starting point vs a panel with a higher starting point if all 3 products are relatively close in performance.
A few days ago I did a test on the bonnet of my Accord, one step mild correction with Meguiars yellow foam, used Rupes uno Protect,, a 15mm shinemate, speed 3. Waited 20 minutes, and wiped off the residue by spraying Wolfgang Concours Series WG-1652 Uber SiO2, diluted 36 to 1. The result of that test was a smoothness that had never been achieved before. My next test will be to clean that residue with Meguiars D155. I wonder if the 155 compares in any way to these products? Good video Brian, I love your content, I learn a lot on this channel. Greetings from Chile.
For me I just enjoy my car looking beyond perfect at all times despits not entering car shows and whatnot if you're happy with the condition your car is in its not a necessity more so a luxury that you're free to use should you want to
Dream Maker does add a nice pop of gloss but I have more trouble than success. Sometimes it "melts" into the panel and provides a nice boost in gloss over an already shiny surface, but most of the time it forms a white haze and gets smeary. I've played with application amount and towel weave without luck, and this is on top of a P&S coating to keep manufacturer symmetry.
I have use Dream Maker , BUT................ Toppers and Ceramic Detail Spray is Better. Great video Brian .......like ALWAYS...................LOVE your Intro music on your videos. Make a CD with ALL of the Intro music you have and sell them along with your t shirts as well. I'LL bye one for sure !!!!
Hey Brain your right about the meter not picking the reflection, when you apply dream maker there was a white haze on the hood the second time you apply it the haze got brighter.
Looks like dream maker lost gloss units. The reading I saw when you placed it over the same spot was 89.something. Then it looked like you moved it to get the 92 score. Weird.
Yeah, just like 3D final touch I use. I use it on top of protection, it amplifies gloss, but as far as protection, nope. Good to have when you don’t want to clog towels or coatings.
Dream maker for me brian, love the little extra bit Gloss 💥 you get . Ive been using bead maker last year or so here in UK 🇬🇧.. I got a vw caddy with a klm blue and bead maker just makes is pop..🤩 you can see an instant difference..
I could see if I had a garage queen with single stage paint that I wanted to take to a Saturday cruise or something, but otherwise I'm with you they don't do anything for me. Thanks Brian! 🍻🍻🍻
Ive just got some dream maker to try. I have a summer/weekend car so just want something i can quickly apply to it before i take it out. Im thinking of of using 3d bead it up every once in a while and Dream Maker everytime i take it out.
I'm wondering if the graphene gives a little more dust prevention, it should help aid against water spots. But graphene gives a velvety feel to it. I'm curious about it but it definitely seems to work
With no protection in any of these products, I will not be buying or using any of these products on my customers cars for that reason alone. There are many other products that have protection and slickness and gloss, all with durability that my customers can benefit from. Thanks Brian for saving me money again.
@@Nick210 Sir, In my area I am using BC2 and BC3 that is sold on the apex website and I am getting 3 months from the BC3 right now with the most slickness and gloss that I’ve ever seen. The BC2 is yet to be determined but is exceeding the 3 months right now in a everyday use vehicle that gets detailed by me once a month!!! So yes there is protection in a bottle!!!
For what this stuff costs with little to no protection for a daily driver left outside ,I think it would be a waste of money .I use Turtle wax Sealnshine followed up by a good detail spray mix of distilled water and Wolfgang uber .Those both are very inexpensive and give good protection.Maybe this is better for a show car.
I don't believe I would any of these in my shop? I use a ceramic detailer instead of these. The detailer I use has some protectant properties and is very cost effective. But thanks for your video.
Every time you apply something, it costs more money. On the other hand, if the results are off world fantastic, then it may be worth the time and money. Interesting that the products label boasts insane gloss, but gloss meter says otherwise. Not for me. Sorry. Thx Brian for the review.
First 2 had shown a gloss LOSS Brian, same spot was 89 as you initially wrote down then moved the meter 🤔 I wouldn’t have given P&S 1st place there, when you were applying them I felt there was a haze showing from P&S and Meguiars, leaving what I could see as Turtle Wax giving the best look with my eyes anyway
The meter needs to sit for a few seconds to get a proper reading. Don’t rush the process!🙂 The surface is also very slick and the meter wants to slide around.
Personally, I find these products completely worthless in the sense that they offer no added value, except for a short-lived show, but nothing more. I recently made the switch to 3D and more specifically the Bead It Up as well as the Xpress wax. Before that I had the Megs Ceramic QD and a few items from Poorboys. In addition to the 3D, Gyeon QD (ordinary + ceramic) meets the requirements and quality. As well as the very good CS3. But as usual, thanks for bringing the reviews to light.
3D Bead It Up is so underrated, I absolutely love it. Easy to use, super tight beading, relatively cheap, lasts longer than bead maker and the paint is super slick.
@@soapa4279 My vehicle is actually the best way to test, a Carbon Black X5 F15. And this one never lies! He shows every stripe or smudge, regardless of the situation. Undervalued? Definitely!
megs has done a disservice to the industry!!!! what/where did u get the green wash sponge at???? could u provide a link?? was that an optimum clay mitt?
Apex ceramic products are really good. But I’ve had many questions and customer services has been horrible. By horrible I mean I haven’t heard back from anyone for over a month.
How do you feel about built hamber auto foam? Although people say it's a high pH when used in a foam cannon with proper dilution I've heard it's close to a pH neutral. How would this product be more frequent washes every few weeks let's say? Thanks for all your videos and insight.
@@apexdetail85 thanks for the response. Will you be doing a top product of the year again I really enjoy those videos but do understand that it takes time and products are constantly evolving. Also do you prefer fireball iron burn or BH korosol? Thanks for your input and time.
Agree. Something seems out of whack with that paint or something. Maybe because it’s such worn paint that it would be more accurate to take an average in each section.
Why spend money and make the effort for such a small gain in gloss without protection, I can achieve better with a detail spray/spray wax/spray sealant and that will last a while too.
I'm just choosing one but i really don't understand your range. You are comparing 3 paint glosser, not protectant, and you give number 1 to P&S, the less glossy???? And how scientific can be the test if you say "yesterday there was a significant gloss increase on this panel and today a dicrease, and this could sometimes happen". Ok, you are ranging by your personal experience and thank you for this but this way is completely unuseful your test with glossmeter! I go for Dream Maker cause is the cheaper indeed
Who in the right mind would buy a detailing product that gives you less gloss after its applied. The untreated panel had more gloss. Pure madness. The World's gone totally mad. Won't be spending my hard earned on rubbish like that
![Summer Walker - Heart Of A Woman [Official Lyric Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/SFddctbZzw8/mqdefault.jpg)

Can't beat a layer of dream maker before a show! The gloss it adds is mirror like.

These types of products are good for quick touch up of door jams,and for front and rear bumpers after a drive to and from work.
Rinseless product would be immensely more economical though.
And now! The Meguiar's Ultimate Insane Shine Paint Glosserrrrr.
I agree I don’t really have a use for those products. I mainly do ceramic coatings.

What is your clay mitt of choice?
If the TW actually has graphene in it shouldn't it give some protection?
Honestly graphene does absolutely nothing for detailing products.
I'm wondering if the graphene gives a little more dust prevention, it should help aid against water spots.
But graphene gives a velvety feel to it. I'm curious about it but it definitely seems to work
@@apexdetail85 Wow, first I ever heard that! So graphene is snake oil? c'mon you sound uninformed
I don't have any of them, but was considering buying Dream Maker to mix it with Bead Maker. Which I do like.
I also don't really see the point when products like BSD or SnS take a very similar time to apply but offer protection and longevity.
I agree
I’ll have to try Dreammarker, pure shine seems nice also
I will still use Dream Maker as a drying aide when not using a light touch protection product
I try just about everything once. I purge the ones that aren’t any good. Dream Maker was quick to find itself in the trash
What would you suggest for a drying aid on a ceramic coated truck? I have been using Beadmaker for the last few years.
Beadmaker or slipstream
I'll just stick with bead maker and griots show car detailer for the weekend cruise.
Thank you for the review

the gloss reading before a correction was 95...wow

Why spend money and make the effort for such a small gain in gloss without protection, I can achieve better with a detail spray/spray wax/spray sealant and that will last a while too.
I see discrepancies with these tests 🤔. Im sure others have noticed

you know what they say… never work with kids,animals and gloss meters
I'm just choosing one but i really don't understand your range. You are comparing 3 paint glosser, not protectant, and you give number 1 to P&S, the less glossy???? And how scientific can be the test if you say "yesterday there was a significant gloss increase on this panel and today a dicrease, and this could sometimes happen". Ok, you are ranging by your personal experience and thank you for this but this way is completely unuseful your test with glossmeter! I go for Dream Maker cause is the cheaper indeed
Why are you adding so much.. Thought it was two sprays per panel.
Surprised , how come gloss machine not accurate?
👍
All this really established is that gloss meters are a waste of time and money.

Who in the right mind would buy a detailing product that gives you less gloss after its applied. The untreated panel had more gloss. Pure madness. The World's gone totally mad. Won't be spending my hard earned on rubbish like that
Waste of money all of them?
I will pass on these!
