I used it on a new paint job on a show truck . The paint aged a year indoors .i can honestly say i am beyond pleased with the results.i highly recommend this product for serious owners .
Thanks for the demonstration Mr. Lad. I have watched a bunch of videos on this particular wax as I just bought their Hybrid Solutions Graphene Paste Wax and it is one of the glossiest waxes I have ever used. I wanted to use the Graphene Flex wax as a topper. I appreciate the fact you actually show how you applied it and what method works best for you. It is the most thorough and informative demonstration on application I have seen yet. I am going to use your method of application which seems to be the best method for applying the product.
Thanks for final thoughts for application and removal. I use a "damp" square microfiber applicator with the FLEX sprayed directly onto it and apply to the surface in a cross application. I find not only does this eliminate any surface over spray but gives a very even application AND it is way more economical! A short nap towel lightly misted with distilled h20 with a fluffy buffer follow-up gives flawless removal and tremendous gloss. Beautiful job on that Porsche!
I applied this after a full Decon and paint correction. I used a damp and dry microfibre cloth as well. I did this at the beginning of April and even though I put a heater in my garage I probably didn’t get the garage warm enough. I did not get the result I’d hoped for. Again, likely all my fault. It’s now May, so I’m looking forward to trying this product again in more ideal conditions.
Dude...thanks...I was searching for the best way to put this on because of the streaking...but doing exactly what you did works awesome! So excited to use this stuff now. It's just so different from seal and shine lol
I find that if applied with a slightly damp applicator (distilled water) and wipe down initially with a slightly damp microfibre towel it looks great. Final buff with a fresh plush microfibre. Without the damp application there was some streaking. Great product
Great technique for applying. I've found that Turtlewax products need a bit of water. A method I found that works is to give one light spray to a panel, then give a light spray of water over it and then wipe i to the panel followed by a dry cloth to really bring out the shine. I found d this method gives great results too without streaking.
I've used the Turtle Wax Flex Wax | Graphene Spray Sealant for about a year. I have a 2007 Jag S-Type with British Racing Green. The paint is 15/16 yrs old and has some issues. But t Graphene seems to have healed the paint. Small cracks have disappeared, the shine really is amazing.
I apply the graphene spray to my 79 k10 with 43 year old paint the same way as I applied Spray n shine. Spray on while wet after a wash, spread with microfiber towel, then dry with another. No streaking issues and the gloss and slickness and shine are noticably better than spray n shine.
Great video! Detailed (pardon the pun!) and specific techniques that made the application process much less intimidating for us home-gamers! Keep up the great work!
I read that with this product, you're suppose to let it cure for 24 hours before wetting car. I just did my car but not with the wet towel part . And it was abit more work to gdt it off . Really had to keep buffing off with mircofiber cloth. But looks amazing when done. I plan on doing the pure shine tomorrow as top coat. Great video thank you
I also bought it when it first became available on Turtle Waxs website, got it and did a full compound, polish, and applied it to my hood of my 2003 rough daily driver. Looks great and protection hasn't degraded so far.
Hi buddy from the UK we haven't had this product here at this present moment still using the old spray and shine didn't think a lot of the ceramic one though have you seen any failure in this product in the last 3 months
@@diljitjedi haven't had a good experience with flex wax.tried 2 bottles followed instructions and it was shitty user experience.emailed tw still waiting 4 response.hopefully others had better experence.love their seal and shine,ice spraywax,and ceramic wet wax.
Been using this for 6 months or so, love it. IMO if I’m spending 20$ + for a quality spray wax/sealant I’ll pay another dollar more for a quality spray trigger as well. Someone needs to explain to TW that most people would too. Great content, Thx 🙏
Not tried the spray yet but yse the max to wax liquid I absutely luv it I applied it by using a 21 long throw da works great need to try the one and done also right now using grios complete finish
Scientifically graphene needs to be laid out at the 1 molecule level to be its strongest. The thinner you apply it to a panel the STRONGER the protection is. The issue all companies are having is that it's practically impossible at this time to layer it at the 1 molcule level consistently across a surface...At the 1 molecule level it is way way way stronger than steel...When this feet is accomplished and only time will tell 1 application of graphene will last a life time...Those are facts when you get deep into the science as many chemists are. I use all Turtle wax pro products... The 1 and done compound, the Wax to the Max liquid, the Flex wax, and the Pure Shine detailer...My paint has never looked better and at no time has weather, salt on roads, chemicals, bird poop, iron, etc damaged my paint...Even the deadly water spots haven't etched my paint because I get to them as soon as I can whether it's a wash or a quick spray detailer/cleaner. These products in my honest opinion in the way I layer the 4 products is more durable than any 1 step coating on the market...I don't care if the coating is rated at 10H these products layered just don't wear out...The Turtle Wax Graphene "Wax to the Max" liquid is on sale for $10.88 a bottle at Auto Zone...Normally retails for $ 28.99. Get it while you can...I bought 3 bottles already for the price of ONE.
Honestly you could use any companies Graphene shampoo. They will do the job but I personally stay away from Graphene and SIO2 shampoos. They don’t seem add add enough value IMO for the cost. I do like adams car shampoo
I suggest the Turtle Wax HYBRID SOLUTIONS CERAMIC SHAMPOO. Weirdest stuff - low suds, applies "flat" on the paint, applies slick as shit, smells gr8 and voila! - on the rinse it goes from totally flat to incredible beading and shine. Works gr8 with the Hybrid Ceramic line AND the MAX/FLEX combo. Cleans AND protects. When washing with it, it almost seems counter-intuitive. If you are looking for a wash that brings some bling - You'll love it. Not kidding...
Any car can look great that is new, clean already and looks like it already has a coating or at least a high quality paint job. I could spread water on it and it would still look great. The hood side you just did looks the exact same as the driver side hood that you didn't do yet. For any integrity, do a normal car with a little bit of fade or use and lets see what it really can do instead of rigging the test so it'll do nothing BUT look great. Good clip anyhow but doesn't encourage me to buy very much.
@@dominictomasino5198 yes just watch out it does a little bit of streaks on black paint but you can fix it with a water damp towel and then a dry towel for a streak free finish
@@mr.lad-detailingtricksntip Thanks Mr Lad. I went and did it anyway. cos wanted to try out the new TW. So I got Gtechniq CS Ultra base; Tac Moolight; Gyeon Cure. and TW Flex all together. Could be a mess, but I have to say it's well wet n glossy. Not rained yet...:-) Thanks for reply.
From what I have learned from using it and watching other video's it's not necessary to use a damp towel every time you apply the Flex wax. Only if you apply to much and there are high spots. And Flex wax is absolutely to be used as a drying agent on a wet car and a spray on and rinse off as well as applying on a dry surface. Just read the bottle it's all there on the lable.
So in my experience if you don’t use a damp towel you will still have issues. I’m in a very high humidity area so my experience is different than others. Although yes you can use it in those other ways, this method seems to be the most effective
@@Saddedude sheesh...I have not used on unprotected surfaces. Have however used as an occasional topper on some Carnuba's and the MAX WAX with exceptional results.
@@audieconrad8995 my max wax was doing okay. When i topped it with the flex wax it degraded pretty quick. Seems counterintuitive but thats what happened. And yes the panel was prepped. Decon wash, clay bar polish, even ipa
This product is way to expensive. I use the TW Graphine paste wax, but use the standard spray waxes and detailers at less than 1/2 the price of flex wax.
@@johnfranklin5277 yes, $25 for spray wax is too much. You can still get Turtle Wax "Wax and Dry" for $6.50, and that product works amazingly good. Seriously, you should try that stuff. The paste wax I use costs $25 dollars, which is the TW Hybrid Solutions Graphene + Ceramic Paste Wax. This spray Flex Wax is never going to replace a paste wax, so why spend $25 on spray wax?
@@mr.lad-detailingtricksntip Yes, I'm one of those. It just hurts my ears when someone says porsh. Did you know that Ferdinand Porsche designed the VW for Hitler? He designed some of the most iconic cars ever made, so we have to put some respect on his name.
I found that using a damp applicator makes it work best. It’s definitely not a speed product. Take your time and reintroduce moisture to your pad every so often…

Have used as a topper for both the MAX WAX and the 75th Anniversary Paste. Both were 2 weeks in before I applied the FLEX SPRAY. Just killer...
