Apex Detail if I use a quick detailer it’s CarPro elixir or or mannets show stopper on a coated car, non coated car it’s eagle one wipe n shine. I use them for fingerprints or light dust.
I have four coats of Turtle Wax Seal and shine. Followed by two coats of Turtle Wax hybrid Ceramic spray coating. Also use P&S bead maker as a drying Aid on a weekly basis.
Hey, what happened to the 👍 after each passed wash round?? That was my favorite part! 😔😁 I actually rarely use detail sprays anymore. I use ONR/Wipeout for those jobs, keeps it simple and economical. I do use spray sealants and waterless washes frequently. Thanks, Brian! 👍👌✌
Thanks for your work Brian! I’m a big fan! Love that panel too, looks like a Subaru hood with the Java Black Pearl paint. One of my favorite factory paints!
a lot of competition for your hard earned $$ out there!! so many products its mind boggling !!!!!! ThankYou Brian for showcasing and testing these for us !! Priceless~!
I’ve watched many videos hours of it !! And trust me meguiars came out as the top detailer sprays for si02 and durability !!!! If there is a spray that competes with this it’s “britemax remax !!! Even car pro reload failed the tests
Does it work well as a drying aid? Does it flash well and is it sunlight friendly ? I plan on using the liquid wax you showed as my base coat on my properly prepped car and then the spray detailer as a drying aid after every wash. Just wondering what u thought of that system. I live in upstate ny.. Love your channel take care..
Hi Brian,nice vid,thank you for all the effort,i'm living in very hot country ,and what i've noticed that even the best products tending to weaken much faster on my car that generally parked under open sky all the time. I think it would be interesting if it could be possible to test panel after several days under UV lamp.
Only video that answered my question on this detailer. I use 3d compound when I polish but after I really like the Meguires Hybrid Ceramic Wax. I have had good, long lasting results with it and I was wondering about using this detailer as a maintenance for the wax. Figured you probably could
9 washes before the protection dissapearing is actually not bad for a detailer spray but the real question is whether it can last 9 weeks if say on average a person washes their car once a week. I honestly think Si02 should not be in a detail spray since detail sprays are normally used for light dust cleaning inbetween washes or when decontamination is needed but Si02 definitely makes sense on at least sealants at minimum if someone wants 6-12 months durability though again just my opinion.
Does this function as a "waterless wash"? Obviously not for the whole car, but for things like bird poop, pollen, water spots, dirt streaks, and dirty windows. I've been using it for those things and it's been working, but is it intended for that?
Brian, what if I accidently applied the Meguiars detailer first (thinking it was the Meguiars hybrid ceramic wax)? Can I just apply the wax over the top of the detailer or do I need to remove all of the detailer first? Thanks in advance for your input!
I actually found that lil rubber disc to be decent for windows. Doesn’t leave any smudges like clay sometimes does. Otherwise it’s really not very good at all.
Hi Brian why would I use this green meg detailer for the same price as the blue ceramic wax and add another layer of that? And just add a cheaper better detailer like p&s or sonax bps
I like the 10 washes method. But I think, it would be more realistic, when you wash about 7 times, but dry the surface every time. I think, some products get attacked by the drying towel nearly as much as by the wash solution.
I've started using the turtle wax hybrid ceramic wax. What is the purpose of the detailer exactly? After I wash my car couldn't I just use the hybrid wax to give it a quick top up instead of using the detailer? Thanks in advance
I'm pretty impressed with the meguires ceramic detailer. I think it's a amazing bang for you buck and possibly better then some more expensive detailers.
Brian nice job. I would say from experience that the drying process, even with a microfiber can also reduce the longevity of any protectant. So while the 10 washes was a good test, drying after each wash would have likely reduced the number of washes the product could endure.
A.D.D. Garage I saw a video with someone testing the longevity of some sealants and waxes and ironically collinite 845 in this video became noticeably less durable after a few wipe downs. It makes sense - drying is a form or agitation albeit light.
Great content as always. Question. What kind of clear coat does Tesla have. Any recommendations on one step polishing pads and product? I have a Black Tesla model 3 and would like to make the black pop as well as good protection. I was looking at the McKee SIO2 Ceramic one step with the buff and Shine Uro-Fiber pad, and will probably top it off with a ceramic coating. Would this be a good combo?
In my personal experience not good to mix a compound with foundations of sio2 and than apply a ceramic coat. You want to buff clean. No fillers or anything that lays down protection. That's what the final step is for( the coating). As for soft paint your one step and choice of pad is fine. But remember you will still have to go behind with a soft pad and an ultra fine polish
I would consider suggest Extreme Solutions 403 (Acrylic) and a finish pad .....skip the Ceramic. This would require less correcting (filling in some defects) and in turn keep as much of the clear coat as possible. You end up with on hell of a finish that pops and you get the longevity your looking for.....you would not be disappointed !!
I guess its not a good claypad? LOL , however the detailing spray is a decent product i would say, and in combination with other Meguier's products it should do just fine. Regarding the donuts, we dont have donuts here really, well they sell them in the supermarket but i wouldnt call those donuts and for sure my dog wouldnt even like them (Not that he would get that kind of food, just good quality dogfood) So the dinkin donuts where a heavenly taste :) , next time im in the USA i will try the Krispy Kreme and Duck Donuts :)
Has anyone bought products from prowax . Com. Their chemicals by the gallon have a decent price and i was interested in buying a gallon of the ceramic detailer for $30 but was wondering on the quality of the products
Frank Martinez The new Ceramic Spray coating from Turtle Wax is a quick coating that has up to 12 months when 2 coats applied and can be applied in direct sunlight.
Fusso Coat will give you 12 months of guaranteed protection if you prep the paint well if the paint is not already in good shape (iron remover, clay and polish). Any of these will require some sort of maintenance like regular washes and the ocasional use of a topper/sacrificial layer though to keep the sealant fresh and fully functional. Sonax BSD is a great inexpensive product for this purpose. 1 coat of BSD on bare polished paint lasts 4 months plus and it's also a very valid option.
Hummm, use it at least once a month as a drying aid and your paint has protection till next time. Beadmaker might be a bit higher gloss but cannot match the wash test of this product I assume.
I think that this product is misunderstood. It’s a detailer. As a detail spray, 10 washes of strong soap could be 30 washes of a regular soap. That would probably display the effects of maybe a month or two. Not bad if it’s easy to use
Henry Freeman Hank’s Detailing its for after car wash, or spot cleaning finger print smudge/ bird drops/ light dust. Etc. Tend to see it used during car shows to keep it shine. Correct me if I’m wrong.
@@lewisreinhold6398 good to know! I got Wowo's Show Stopper and had a go last week. Gloss is awesome and lasts around 5 days if weather is dry. I will mix it up with DDsi to see how it goes!
What a great job Brian does! Love the site and love his work So much enthusiasm and no BS and boring stories He gets straight into it Thanks Brian Kudos to Brian !
Lost it’s strong hydrophobic properties relatively quickly. Protection still remained. Liquid wax held strong hydrophobic through all 10 washes, but the mix killed it quick. Strange.
Share your favorite quick detailer. When do you use it?
Apex Detail Wowos
I love using p&s beadmaker and I like to use it after each wash.
I just picked up a bottle of this today, but it's supposed to rain all week... Up to now, I've mainly used P&S Beadmaker as a drying aid.

Holds up pretty darn good for just a detailer
Just picked up some meguiars ceramic spray detailer. It's official!!! I have enough products to open a retail store.🤣🤣🤣
I was surprised to see it last as long as it did, in all honesty. If you are into layering products, it would be a pretty nice topper.
Great demonstration of this product ✊Always appreciate your input it means a lot coming from you 💎
Thanks for the work you put into providing us with this content!
Yes, I agree....Thank you Brian!

a lot of competition for your hard earned $$ out there!! so many products its mind boggling !!!!!! ThankYou Brian for showcasing and testing these for us !! Priceless~!
I use Griot's best of show detailer on top of Meguairs Hybrid Ceramic wax and everything is still holding up pretty strong since April 2019.
Would love to see this vs Turtle Wax 3-1 ceramic detailer. So many out there now, hard to choose.
The Meguiars is way better IMO
I love the new test procedures!
I am using Sonax Briliant shine detailer. when that it runs out it is time to upgrade.
Good effort demonstrating the product, thanks

So is this like a spray wax? Or a detailer? Like something I can use to clean off dust on my car at a car show
Always appreciate the shared knowledge

Why for the 10 first wash the sponge is with white side up and soft....... and the last is with green side up and stronger wash?
Brian, what if I accidently applied the Meguiars detailer first (thinking it was the Meguiars hybrid ceramic wax)? Can I just apply the wax over the top of the detailer or do I need to remove all of the detailer first? Thanks in advance for your input!
Hi...Can use this CERAMIC Spray Detailer on a " REGULAR " waxed car ?

It gives a quick jolt of gloss...and can be used as a drying aid.
I use this and knew it was good. Then I seen this and was glad I bought it BUT! I'm wondering if it has UV blocking properties?
Great video.I use Meguiars quick detailer which is ok on plastic trim.Is this ok on plastic trim,but obviously not on glass
Very impressive for a detailer.
Can't wait to see this versus Hybrid Solutions!
Id like to see a side by side comparison to the Turtlewax Hybrid Ceramic spray. Im curious on which results are better when shown side by side.
What is a good maintenance product for ceramic coating?
Wow! Impressive!
Not too shabby for a QD!
How long does it take to settle before water hits it?

Great test!
Awesome.. not to bad👌🏼
Can I use it after and between regular paste wax
That makes sense, as I think I heard detailer is ceramic liquid wax mixed 1:3. Thanks.
It’s their bead booster product diluted down as a quick detailer. Had a write up on one of Meguiars forum
10 washes is a very long time for me. I think I will give it a try
Could you please test all the P&S products, including their Inspiration coating.
Great content as always.

How are the antistatic properties on the detailer?
Can I use the detailer without the wax?

Has anyone bought products from prowax . Com. Their chemicals by the gallon have a decent price and i was interested in buying a gallon of the ceramic detailer for $30 but was wondering on the quality of the products
Can you recommend sealant/wax/coating that can be applied with no garage? Atleast 6 months durability.
Frank Martinez The new Ceramic Spray coating from Turtle Wax is a quick coating that has up to 12 months when 2 coats applied and can be applied in direct sunlight.

Sonax BSD is a great inexpensive product for this purpose. 1 coat of BSD on bare polished paint lasts 4 months plus and it's also a very valid option.
I'd say for $12 it exceeds my expectations.
Any tips for paint chips
Do you not like clay mitts or just this specific one from Meguiars?
I only enjoy the Nanoskin mit.
Is that an obsidian wrx/sti hood?
Hummm, use it at least once a month as a drying aid and your paint has protection till next time. Beadmaker might be a bit higher gloss but cannot match the wash test of this product I assume.
Where can I get a test panel
Are all clay bars made the same? Any certain manufacturer you prefer?
There are many to choose from. I have a dedicated , detailed video on them.
Just ONR I just noticed your a lefty too!
Don't forget to mimic the extreme torture of the Sun. 👍👍👍
Gloss units!?
I think that this product is misunderstood. It’s a detailer. As a detail spray, 10 washes of strong soap could be 30 washes of a regular soap. That would probably display the effects of maybe a month or two. Not bad if it’s easy to use
I didnt say it was bad...at all. It was only slightly behind the liquid wax...not too shabby.👍🙂
Apex Detail I think you did it justice. I think others think that it’s more of a ceramic sealant as opposed to a detailer and it’s not
Is there a link for the overall ranking? Ty
I will put one together.
What’s the point of a quick detailer? I never got the point of it
Henry Freeman Hank’s Detailing its for after car wash, or spot cleaning finger print smudge/ bird drops/ light dust. Etc. Tend to see it used during car shows to keep it shine. Correct me if I’m wrong.
for in-between washes i think
Yes, drying aid, extra shine, wipe minor dust, spots, poop, mist, prime polisher pad, and clay lube
@@dossegundos7145 you said it all. I'd add for cleaning door jams and as a sacrificial layer for your base sealant/protection.
Thank you all!
👍
55k Baby!
Just getting started!!
Done & Dusted and Angelwax QED
With every wash
Try Done and Dusted Si Edition. The gloss and slickness are mind-blowing.
JWL got that one too
Sensational products
I haven’t found anything better yet
