Those of you that have used this...share your experience!!
Looks good, basically an adaption of foaming sealants we use in the commercial car wash industry.
What was the mixing ratio for drying aide or quick detail spray ?
Love this stuff, but I think I have been using way too much product. Thanks for simplifying it with two shot glasses.
How would you compare Poly Gloss to Hydro Foam?
Not impressed with this product at all. Tried it in a foam gun attached to a hose and just added it to a bucket of water. Didn’t dwell long and hardly any suds at all.
Not only did you showed us how to foam with a pump sprayer, but also how to make a great detailer from a sealant. Thank you. And thank GG for their water-soluble products.
Thanks for the demonstration and your time of doing this testing for all of us you are an awesome professional and fairness it is your main reason why I always waiting for your videos.
My pleasure...glad these help a bit.
Thank you for considering those of us who don't have a garage/ personal driveway, but love and pamper our cars just as much.Now I know how I can use the poly gloss to achieve optimum results
Thanks for demonstrating this! I love mine and have used it on a few different cars, coated, waxed and completely unprotected. The unprotected car went a solid 2 months in the PA summer, outside in the elements and it's still holding on surprisingly well. The car with the sealant (wolfgang 3.0) has gone 3 months and it's still protecting. The black paint garage queen definitely took on some additional shine and gloss after application. One thing that stood out to me was the anti-static properties. I do notice the garage kept car doesn't get as dusty as it did previously sitting for weeks at a time. The ultimate test for anti-static will be the Spring time pollen!
Completely agree.. I am in Pa as well.
Looked for a video w/ this Griot's product, new to me. It's one of the products recommended by my detailer who did our ceramic coating. Excellent step by step, great tip for making your own detail spray w/it also. THX!
Thanks for your test, always good to have options.
Absolutely!
Great video.
This looks good to use in the winter when you want to be quick and top up your existing protection.
R m exactly👍🏻👍🏻
Just used it yesterday. I like the fact that if gloss up the grill, etc. But what I like best is the anti static properties, keeping dust and pollen off the car.
This system is the absolute bomb. Especially the surface wash. You could clearly SEE it encapsulating the dirt. So awesome. Poly gloss has fantastic hydrophobic properties and extremely easy to use.
QwikSS indeed!!👍🏻👍🏻
Used this stuff for the first time last week. Put it over top Wolfgang sealant and made my white Porsche pop like I've never seen a white car do. Seems like it has minor filling abilities too. Only thing I noticed was that when using the windshield wipers, a line formed on the window where the wiper stops, like it pushed the coating off the window. This stuff will be great to use in the winter, plus no extra touching means less swirls.
Completely agree. I will look closer at the wiper issue.
Ordered! Thanks B!
James Biedlar anytime!
Great test! I've been curious about the this product for a little while. Thank you for sharing. I'm looking forward to seeing how it compares to the Gyeon product.
Me too!🙂
I used this on a travel trailer works very good and makes the job profitable.
Awesome video! I will try some!!
Loops And Threads 😁👍🏻
great video again buddy. not bad 4 the price..🍻🍻
Richard Seem about average... I would pass on the Surface Wash tho.
7:14 Why do you say “Grab a 32oz spray bottle” when you’re clearly using a 16-20oz spray bottle? Do you still recommend adding a 1/2oz to that sized bottle?
How did you get ahold of the smaller bottles, they're on BO! I've been told sometime next month, its killing me as I've been a Griot's customer since 2005. When I do get the product I'll be using that same IK Foam 9 as I live in an apartment.
Thank you for a great review Brian, I really appreciate it!
Had no problem with this... but had to wait on the 3d One.
I know this video is from a while ago but I've been recently going through some of the Griot's product offerings. In a Q&A on Griots website someone asked about it being used as a drying aid. Their response was that it was not designed to be used in a spray bottle. Where did you come up with the 1/2 oz. measurement and how did you figure out it could be used as a drying aid? Griot's also now sells their Brilliant Finish Foam-On Wax which seems similar to this but maybe more for the DIY guy. Your thoughts?
Seeing you with the IK9 foamer has me wondering if you are planning to do a review of Auto Fanatics wheel cleaner? It looks great but would also be great to see some third party feedback before I invest in the IK9. Many thanks!
I dont see a problem with that. I will look into it.
If you don't have a foam gun/cannon the IK line works quite well. I use both the smaller one and the 9. I mainly use the smaller one for my wheels but have used it with car soap as well. I IK9 when full can do 2 cars producing nice foam, but not like a pressure washer and foam gun. As long as your expectations are around 7-8 out of 10 you won't be disappointed.
Hope this helps.
Hi Brian ,
Watching video I see you applied it to a wet car. I thought I read it should be applied after drying car ?
As always thanks for you info and knowledge.
This morning Biscuits and gravy :)
Making me hungry!!😂
Apply while wet. Can also be used as drying aid.
Does it's add a shine to plastic trim, wheel wells ? Some poly products will give trim a darker look. ????
my username probably detracts from the credibility from my argument but here is my experience.
the gloss, definitely noticeable. It definitely adds hydrophobia on top of sealants. I think of it as a wax that can be applied via foam cannon. My reasoning for this is because on the windshield, when the wipers are used you can see lines forming as if the wiperblades moved the polygloss out of the area. Also, it leaves the paint feeling very slick just like a wax would. My only gripe with polygloss is that it does not seem to last more than two weeks. Ive tried it on bare paint, a car with reload and another with cquartz uk and on all three cars it seems to have disappeared (loss of water repellency, loss of gloss, loss of slick feeling).
Hey unrelated to the video question, but Was wondering if i could use Sonax perfect finish with a Meguiars polishing/finishing pad and get the same results as if i were using Rupes yellow pad?
Probably better results. I am not a Rupes fan at all.
@@apexdetail85 So in conclusion microfiber polishing/finishing pad by meguiars or any great company is equal or better to regular foam polishing pads? Also I have black paint.
You haven't found it to diminish the pop of a good ceramic on white/silver/gray? I'm surprised by the video. Haven't used the product yet.
Not in the least. Makes an average sacrificial layer.
Hi Brian! You mentioned on the video you can achieve better results with other products than Poly Wash... If you can, could you please share your formula...? If it is a professional secret and you don't want to make it public, that's ok... Thanks!
One ounce Angelwax Fast Foam , One ounce Angelwax Cleanliness, One ounce Purple Power Vehicle and Boat.
Thanks Brian!
What your thought on CG cyclone dirt trap? Are they better then old school girt guard or same?
What Tyler said☝🏻
@@apexdetail85 I'm my testing, I found the chemical guys dirt traps have a design flaw.
While they do a good job of trapping debris underneath it, it's top surface is actually mostly flat, so a lot of debris will also rest on top.
My current system is a traditional grit guard with washboard on top of the chemical guys dirt trap and thah works beautifully. The detail guards does have be enticed though.
for the surface foam, you said u can throw some together and make your own cocktail.. what would you recommend?
One ounce Angelwax Fast Foam, One ounce Angelwax Cleanliness, One ounce Purple Power Vehicle and Boat. Nothing beats it.
Ahh yes! Purple Power, i bought that the last time you showed it!
with the Surface Wash - i wonder if you can use 1 once of Surface wash, and 1 once of like some other shampoo and see how it compares vs 2 ounces of Surface wash .. a good comparison if you have some lol i don't
How do you remove grass stain from leather seats? (Is this hard to do or easy?)
Use Citrol 266. dab a bit on a microfiber,,,wipe the stain off with it.
@@apexdetail85 does it come off easily??
How did you rinse after using the ik9 foamer?
Indeed...The Worx👍
Ah OK I definitely missed that. Does that work without a water hookup?
Whats one of your best detail brand out there
No secret...Sonax and Angelwax.
In the video it looks like the test spot actually was less glossy than the rest of the panel. :S
We will look at that in detail on a better panel vs Geon Wet.
