These two products are simply amazing and will be used in all my videos from here on. Stay tuned for more videos and feedback on this new system, BOSS Foam Cannon soon!!!
Foam cannon looks proprietary with the bottles just screwing onto the cannon.
it is, looks like they took the top section from the MTM design and came up with their unique metering system. the one thing i truly hate about the MTM is that it tips over for storage so easily due to poor balance in the design, the BOSS wont do that by the larger reservoir design. the Griots bottles do screw onto the MTM but without the metering system you would blast through too much product.
MTM dissected the griots cannon and found that it's basically a PF22 with the majority of the metal parts swapped out for plastic ones. Whether that really makes a difference I don't know. The metering system *should* be relatively easily retrofitted to a PF22 for use with PF22 bottle without diluting the soap, since you wouldn't have the proper thread for the Griot's bottles.
I have a strong feeling that I'll be adding this system to my arsenal. I have a use case for all 3 chemicals, but in particular the two you highlight here are absolutely ideal for a maintenance wash type service. What a time saver.
but Griots has a lifetime warranty, try that with MTM ha ha ha, yeah I am sure they copied the MTM but some design changes I do like better on the Boss, for one it can stand up on its own without tipping over empty, the MTM drives me freaking nuts always toppling over on the table and floor because of the poor balance. As soon as I can get my hands on the Boss Cannon il be showcasing it on here,
These 2 products are definitely my go to now. Tried both for the 1st time this evening and they both performed beyond my expectations! I have a 2100 psi Craftsman electric pressure washer and a cheap Amazon foam cannon and worked great.
I tried the combo for the first time yesterday, with a totally touchless wash and it exceeded my expectations. I used both products in an MTM foam cannon at a 2 oz dilution ratio. The foam from the wash was incredible, better than CG Honey Dew which is a great product too. I then rinsed the car, and applied the poly gloss and let it dwell for around 4 minutes, then rinsed. I don't know what is in that product, but it made drying the car effortless (I first blow dry it, then go over it with a Griot's PFM drying towel). I usually finished my wash with a Maguires, spray syn max application, but with this new product, I can skip this step. My power washer is rated at 3100 PSI @ 2.5 GPM. I ws able to wash two cars using one MTM container with the surface wash which was another pleasant surprise. Each car required a container for the gloss works. Pro tip, invest in an additional foam cannon dispenser when using these products since you can get 2 washes out of the surface wash container. I have two MTM cannons because I ordered another one thinking I was defective because of poor foaming, but it turned out I had a poor performing pressure washer pump which I replaced. A big thank to the AF for turning me on to these products!
I saw the live debut of this product on Griots' Facebook page a while ago and was impressed. What you did here impressed me all the more. Griots' does make some good stuff for sure and I'd consider giving this a try.
"i have a real pressure washer with real GPM" sorry but not everyone can afford a 1500 kranzle
Lol
That’s why I don’t like most RUclipsrs because we don’t have that kind of money. We have money to afford 100 dollar pressure washers and most of us will be happy with that. Do we want a nice pressure washer? Yes, but it’s just simply way to expensive
@Moko Coco - I don’t understand why you think no one can afford pressure washers? If you can’t, that’s fine, and you can find plenty of cheap washers to wash your car with. Washing cars doesn’t require high PSI, even the $80-100 small Greenworks will do a great job, or shop around for a used one. He’s not even using super high end equipment. Professional power washers get into $5,000-$10,000-$15,000+ range. He’s using a $1,500ish washer, and not complaining that he can’t afford a $15,000 washer. The idea of hating on people with more money than you, and assuming that no one other than tubers has any money just irks the crap outta me. No one is in your way of making more money. Also, no one is hating on you for making what you’re making now. Have some perspective…wisen up.
I love griots so I am not surprised that their foam is high performing.
Man really interested in these thank you for videos on both. It becomes annoying doing a full on 2 bucket wash every week. Just one thing I am afraid is drying with a towel cause the car might not be 100% clean. I think I'll try to blow dry with my shop vac..
Great stuff! I was amazed how well the Griots stuff worked! I used a regular garden hose with the Gilmore foam master spray foam applicator. My Q50 came out nice and clean without touching the car.
Just ordered a gallon of the foaming poly gloss for my garage kept car, can't wait to try it! Griot's website was still in stock, I ordered from them no issues
let us know once you try it
Jimmyqballs lol not expecting to see you in a detailing video
The reason for NO RINSE to begin with is the water pushes grit without the soapy lubricant - I recommend a low-pressure like rain to just sit on the car - after a few minutes THEN spray the way you did - so 2 stages of foaming - The wash doesn’t need to be perfect - just a quickie shower without FRICTION - the easier and quicker the more often it will get done. Save the friction wash for when you are adding wax - when this dries finish with a light spray protective coating and minimal wiping - just ONE small section pass with fresh microfiber .- no back and forth - that’s bad - one wipe per cloth
Ok, so I had my first run with the Griot's foam and poly foam washes. I must say...this video is exactly what happened with mine. I went about 2 1/2 weeks without a regular wash and the spray foam took ALL the dirt off after dwell and spray with my pressure washer. I could not believe that I didn't have to do a complete strip wash and then was again. The only wax I have on my car is meguiars ultimate paste wax. I only used that because I was waiting for my colinite 845 to come in the mail. So I did the foam wash exactly like described in this video, dwell time was 8 minutes, rinsed off on the sprayed on the poly gloss. Dwell time was 3 minutes and then rinsed off again. The hydrophobic action is immediately noticeable. After drying I hit the car with Griot's spray on wax. I even used all the products on my gloss black wheels and it still made a huge difference!! I'm definitely gonna be using this instead of my CM washes that I normally use.
Leo Leo thanks for posting you feedback im getting the same feedback each day from new users, i am about to do my car now.
Auto Fanatic no problem man. Your videos have helped me a ton since in still new to detailing. I can't wait for another video.
i just did a full under 10 min wash in 95 degree full humidity heat, should be posted any day now, the Griots surface wash really cuts time down as il show everyone.
Auto Fanatic awesome man!! And yes it does. I was shocked and put my buckets away once I saw what the foam did. And you're not going to believe this, but it just rained a while ago and I'm back to square one. I'm going to do the wash cycle again here when it's a little cooler. It's 98 and 87% humidity. 2 oz of the foam wash in my foam cannon, dwell for 8 minutes. 2 oz of the poly gloss in the cannon, dwell for 3 minutes and then rinse, blow dry and towel dry. Then Griot's spray on wax. I'm shooting for a 20 minute wash and wax.
Once these come back in stock I might have to pick up some gallons just based of the video alone. Haven’t even tried the product myself. Might have to end up getting rid of my Adam’s ultra foam and I’m a Adam’s fan boy.
I unloaded $400 of soap this weekend with my hand pumps and all, to make the switch, wait until you see the Poly Gloss video on Wed, i never in my life saw a product work this way before, truly game changing.
It would be nice to see the difference in cleaning using this product vs simply rinsing the car well with a pressure washer
Perfect time to pick them up at detailedimages, they have a 25% off griot products which include the new stuff.
This is great and all. But if you just keep the tip of wand at least 8 to 10 inches away from the surface, use a 40 to 45 degree nozzle and just take a minute or two, you can get 80 plus percent of the surface dirt off without harming, or damaging anything. Then you can foam. I believe its called, a pre-rinse.
This looks like it might top honeydew... Never thought I'd see the day. I was very surprised how thick this looked considering how thin the product looked
Like the bottles! Easy to pour into the cannon. Looks like this stuff works , I’ll have to wait until September to see if I can grab some
il be stocking this in my store soon enough.
Great news since Griot's chemical products are not available for European buyers
If you are in Canada eShine have these products back in stock as of August 12, 2018 when I ordered.
Was it just plain water in the foam cannon bottle before you added the 2oz of product?
yes plain water
Oh my god that car is beautiful
I’ve been looking to get this product I love griots products especially their boss system. 👍🏽
get it and you'll love it, their new edgeless PFM is crazy as well
Try changing the orfics on the griots. The pf22 comes with a smaller orfice. Smaller orfice means more more foooaaaaaaam
wrong did not work check my IG videos, the PF22 i have has the largest and the Boss has the smallest, I have 2 other sizes all with zero success, the unit is defective i think with a bad valve up top
What is the orifice 1.25 or 1.1 mm on your MTM foam cannon? Can you use a 1.1 mm orifice on the MTM cannon with the Kranzle 1122TST? Can you us the foam surface wash then do a contact wash followed by the use of the polygloss?
Love to see a review on some shine supply stuff. There isn't much out there on that stuff . I just got several of their products and really like them
Wed that video will go live on the Poly Gloss it is insane!
Auto Fanatic awesome looking forward to seeing that but I was mean the shine supply brand products
How is the foaming wash when used in the 2-bucket wash method? Would it be suitable as a two in one solution? Or do you recommend a dedicated wash soap?
Nice infomercial!
They are amazing definitely
Any water spotting? I normally use the Adams Car Shampoo, and it leaves a large amount of water spots, as a result of the very hard water in my area of NJ.
Zero water spots, on black wheels it was always an issue with this product zero. You have to try it, truly remarkable how well it works. I was convinced after the first time to switch.
Thank you for the reply. I will definitely be trying this wash; maybe even incorporate a CR Spotless.
@@Fernando-ns3uv if your water is that hard I don't think the soap is going to make that bug of a difference but I could be wrong. I have the same problem and it's a bare but I just have to make sure I get it dried in a timely matter.
Sold out on Amazon but available on homesite, Griot’s Garage.
I’m going to order some of this ASAP
Should these only be used with pressure washers or can this be used in a regular bucket wash?
My question is do you think this will work in their foam gun or maybe a IK pump sprayer ???
We’re did you get the measuring cup at?
Try it on the red Shelby using the gas washer.
I wonder if this snow foam is like this because of the cranza 1322
So this really does more than just rinsing the car down hey? Any of the regular car wash foams such as honeydew or adams didnt do so much for breaking down dirt. Just used it to add lubrication when going over the surface.
Just used the surface wash. Pretty incredible stuff as it removed about 50-60% of the dirt and I had not washed the car for about two weeks. My vehicle is protected but this is a great product and actually works. Sprayed it with my MTM, let it dwell for 6 minutes and pressure rinsed off. Sprayed it again and then used it as additional lubrication to wash the car.
I love sonax products. I sell the ceramic coating system cc36. It's so easy to apply and people love it. I did a yacht
With the product and it's amazing . It differs from other ceramics because you can remove it with alcohol. I would like to send you a
Sample of Permanon Gold. I'll wait until you get a business address for your business. You've got me convinced to get a former now.
Wow it beat your standby from cg... Richard B. Or R Guy Beers
E
Just so you know I am not trying to sell you Sonax products. If you are interested contact Sonaxusa. The other product you can also buy from someone else. I just think you should try it. It is used in the yachting industry, aircraft, and auto. Thanks
How would you compare these 2 products to Geyon foam and bathe+?
Nice video! Thanks
About how much water did you have in the PF22 prior to adding the Surface Wash?
Can you test this in a foam gun, alot of us don't have a pressure washer. Also great vids.
You think this will work well with the IK9 foamer?
Your videos are outstanding. But what do the neighbors think of all the suds you create...haha
Why did I not hear a power washer? I think you mentioned the unit in the beginning
switched to the Kranzle 1322 due to noise law that passed a few months back, its better and much more enjoyable now
Wow thats awesome
Looks like an awesome product! BTW I posted a comment on Obsessed Garages channel about your wheel cleaner to get you more exposure for all of your hard work and efforts. Thank you for all of the great content on your channel.
After using this 2 soaps my conclusion is.. to expensive not foams the surface wash like others either removes road film sorry about the honest review, in going to make a video showing all that crap the only thing I love from surface wash is the smell!! Delicious but does not remove all the dirt if you go touchless
It will if you let it sit
The pressure washer is not made by Griots. It's an AR Blue 2-in-1. And you can get them at plenty of suppliers. I even think Craftsman offers one just like it, just rebranded. And only $180. These pressure washers are decent. But they only have 1.4 GPM. I'd rather just get the Sun Joe SPX3200, which has 1.76 GPM.
Your accent held my attention
If you use the surface wash and then rinse it, you foam again the car with surface or just use another shampoo in the bucket and agitate the car with the wash mop?
no rules you can use these as ever you like
Auto Fanatic thanks!
How much water did you add to each product in the bottle?
What kind of soap/wash would you recommend afterwards for the areas that needed agitation?
same stuff, just use a mitt for any tough spots
Guess it's out for me. I don't have a Pressure washer, in a complex.
watch my video using this in the IK9 foamer that you pump up, lots of customers use that method who do not own a pressure washer. works great
Amazon has 6 of both left. Well 5 of both now.
good move my gallons are on backorder for another 6 weeks. I bought a few small bottles for now off Amazon
I’ve looked all over amazon and can’t find it listed anywhere. Anyone have a link for it?
Speed04GT do u use hot or cold water in the foam cannon? I use hot and the suds are off the truck with in 3 min
Hey how come you didn't demo the red shit rt after...
do you think that the griots snow foam is better than the chemical guys honey dew snow foam?
CG Honey Dew does produce slew of foam to exhibit a WOW factor. However, Griot's Garage Surface Wash is far more effective to lift, encapsulate, and releases contaminants. Side-by-side tests were done before to prove this.
they r more than simply amazing it is must buy
Poly Foam video will be live tomorrow!!!!
What other cars do you have besides the red gt350?
Do u have to mixed with water. Or just go with concentradit formula?
this system uses a metering valve in the foam cannon so you do not need to mix anymore, works quite well
Auto Fanatic . Ok But i use them same cannon u have. Not Griots garage cannon.
i took the metering kit off the griots for the MTM, works great you might be able to buy spare parts for the Boss canon if you called griots
These two products must be amazing I just check on Amazon and they do not have it in stock
i guess my video sold out stock, they will replenish soon if you place your order
Ok thanks
Question for you.....after I use the surface foam and dry car off, do I clay bar first then use poly gloss then do your wax you endorse?
only clay the car if it needs it, i usually will clay, polish with a machine then wax in one sitting.
@@autofanaticcars Thanks again for the reply. Still waiting on my foam and poly gloss order. Avalance gray 17 Gt350 is also on it's way next week. Cant wait. Glad I found your channel.
great enjoy the new car and reach out direct if you need anything. AF
The car was already clean before he started. You can see the wet ground when he started the video
clean to maybe your standard not mine, rewatch and see the dirt in the foam run off on the ground
WOW! Great video! No need to agitate like you do with Honeydew, Mr. Pink or Masterson’s?
yeah this stuff really impressed me on the white car after it was in the rain a few times, i almost always need agitation but this time none
Auto Fanatic Just ordered both from Griot’s. Glad I only have a half gallon of Honeydew and Mr. Pink on my shelf.
when you get them try it and let me know how you like it, i think there is no comparison that i sold all of my soaps this weekend to a guy off IG
So no agitation ? Wow I’m impressed might have to pick this stuff up , my routine washes would go faster if I don’t have to agitate thanks for the review
this is the only foaming soap i tried that did what I show in this video without agitation, it blew me away i had to make the switch
Is it foamed on top of collonite 845?
Did you use both products in this video? I missed the poly gloss I think.
second video check it out
Auto Fanatic I see now. Sorry for the dumb comment.
You’re going to need to update your 2018 Best Products I Use video based on this result.
yeah these two products blew me away that I sold gallons of the other soaps I have been using to replace with these two. Wait til you see video #2 on Weds.
Auto Fanatic I heard there a 3 of them ... buy 1, 2 or all?
the 1st product is no longer offered they are remaking it i hear, just get the wash and poly foam, its insane. Send me an email il send you a link to the other video later
Nice video as always, looking forward to purchasing your wheel cleaner. Can these be used on a car with a ceramic coating?
do you start with foam or do you give it a quick spray with water first?
no pre rinse required, Poly Foam video live tomorrow!!
thanks
So when do you use Poly Gloss, for the actual wash?
after or alone it is up to you and what condition the car is in
Just a heads up, these items as well as their foam cannon are in stock on their website
check again the cannon and most are on backorder for end of September, my order got kicked back last week.
Auto Fanatic oh ok when you go on there it says in stock.
Does the amount of psi that your power washer emits affect the amount of thick foam that comes out?
the pressure washer gallons per minute does, not the PSI rating.
What GPM would you recommend?
@@hiimgrassy1.6 - 2.5
Looking for DA polisher
What do u think of the torx fx10 ?
Steve Givelas Maxshine 15mm for large panels with 5in backing plate and harbor freight DA with 3in backing plate for smaller sections. You will wind up spending just about 200 total but those machines are great and won't break the bank. Dallas paint corrections has reviewed them on his channel if you want to take a look.
Did I miss something, I didn't see you use the poly gloss
next video is live on Wed
Wow , how about this one and honey dew? What you think?
this stuff is better i never saw dirt come off as much as on this demo with any other snow foam product. there is something unique to this product I am finding out the more I use it.
Auto Fanatic ok but which one gets thicker foam?
they are very close with foam thickness but the Griots Foaming Wash breaks up and cleans far better which is why I am switching over. I sold all my CG soaps over the weekend.
Auto Fanatic I believe you, I really do but , why not doing a comparison video? In this video you did less than 2 ouncesof soap and I saw a little bit more foam, is it me or this stuff really thicker more? Please do a video but make sure you show in cameras all the soaps amounts and the water amount to
Whats this "blow dryer" youre mentioning?
speak of the devil i just used it, the Ego Blower check my wash videos i have a link to it in the descriptions it is the best touch less dryer you can get for the money
Cool, thanks for the reply:-)
Does it work with the two bucket method?
sure why not
Is expensive by gallon
Can it be use like ammo frothe.
yes you can use it in the Griots pump up foamer
Another video with the Poly Gloss?
Wed video 2 goes live I cant post them all at once too many viewers get brain freeze. ha ha ha
Hey, where do you sell the cg products? To people around you?
i posted on my IG over the weekend and 9 gallons of product were gone in 30 minutes. Already shipped out.
Auto Fanatic ha ha that was fast
What spoiler is that?
OEM California Special spoiler
Has anyone used their speed shine, wasn't too sure about it...
I've used it past few times. It's a good speed shine but rather pricey for how much I use. Rather than their speedshine I'd rather use the Best of Show spray wax if applicable. For a quick detailer I use McKee's37 Rinseless wash and wax concentrate. Much more affordable per application.
Speed Shine is a great product. It's a lubricant, easy and fast to apply after thorough car wash.
My foam runs off pretty quickly, any tips?
which cannon are you using? try the regulator on the top of the cannon on the MTM i leave it at max + otherwise too much water shoots out.
Auto Fanatic I have the MATCC Cannon and I used it with max soap. Do the higher quality foam cannons make that big of a difference?
Any chance of trying this in a foam gun?
def will not work anywhere near as good i feel and would use even more product but you can use it in a Griots or IK pump up foamer, i might as well try that soon for you guys to see.
Is not out of stock griots has both of them
I use Griots ptoducts too. Hey, what happened to the Q50?
Q50 is still around, gonna shoot a few videos with it soon. I am ready to get rid of it and get a new car.
Auto Fanatic ok cool. I like the Q50. Really sucks the dealership didn't do more for you with it.
Auto Fanatic you should replace it with the Genesis G70 3.3T
Il be discussing this soon in a Q50 video , I have a few ideas but it is the wife's car so she ultimately needs to be happy. Trust me I wanted the Focus Rs but she hated the cars looks, a female just wouldn't get it. I drove the Genesis, shot a video on that, need to get it pieced together soon, great cars coming out of South Korea its impressive
Women sucks when it comes to cars. Wanna put a catback on her G37X but you know how that goes
That’s unreal levels of foam. Not sure it’s worth $20 more for the 128 oz compared to honeydew though
it truly is because no snow foam would eat up the surface dirt and wash it away this damn good, I tried them all and never once saw dirt fall off the cars paint like this Griots foam did. there is something unique to this formula that is certain.
It's not about the level of foam. It's about the effectiveness to lift, encapsulate, and releases contaminants. Side-by-side tests were done before to prove this. Griot's Garage Surface Wash holds the candle in this department. In contrast, CG Honey Dew market the product to exhibit slew of foam without being effective.
Will this work with a ceramic pro coating
sure
Great i just ordered the gallon from their web site
Does this soap have any waxes or sealants in them?
WHAT PRESSURE WASHER U HAVE??
omtz8665 irs a krenzle german made. Matt morman sells it obsessed garage. Check him out
The third product has been shelved by Griots until further testing.
yes they told me I wonder why but i am sure they are reformulating it better, this stuff is not easy as I am going through it myself for the products I will be launching.
We regret to inform you that your order for Foaming Surface Prep has been canceled. Your credit card has not been charged for this item/order. After further product evaluations were complete, issues arose that could not effectively be resolved, forcing us to stop production.
This car in Tallahassee ? Pretty sure I saw the guy curb the shit out of his rim today
NYC
Auto Fanatic oh okAy saw the fl tag I thought
You're getting the foam because of the MTM PF22 foam cannon the Griots foam cannon sucks
tell me about it, did you check my video on it?
Auto Fanatic yeah I saw your video it was great the MTM foam cannon is awesome I have one. Now I have seen a video with the Griots Garage foam cannon and that one sucks no foam like the one in your video
Did you really sell your chemical guys products? I won’t get rid of my honey dew anyways I can have both and about v7, don’t think nobody can make something better in the next 10 years lol
CG Honey Dew does produce slew of foam to exhibit a WOW factor. However, Griot's Garage Surface Wash is far more effective to lift, encapsulate, and releases contaminants. Side-by-side tests were done before to prove this.
2 people that work for the competition hit the thumbs down 😁
you def got that right. but who cares this stuff Rocks and you guys need to see it and try it yourselves it is truly a game changer for sure and with their BOSS cannon it will be the system to have. Wait till i post video 2 of the Poly Gloss!
Auto Fanatic I'm new to detailing and always eager to learn about more products! Thanks!
Who did?
And your car when? And the red bottle you did not use it? Another video coming soon?
Wed il post the other video, these two products are game changes I feel.
Auto Fanatic yeah I really want to try them. But as you know it’s really hard to get them
Amazon has a few bottles left go grab them now or wail til October, Ebay sellers also posted them but I think i bought them all already.
Auto Fanatic 😂 ok I’ll check thanks man. Im still here waiting for the website to come online 👍🏼
Auto Fanatic you know they sell them by the gallon 😳 and its cheap
Griots is trash. Any products you can buy at Walmart or Auto parts is NOT good . Carpro , Wolfgang , Gyeon etc. Spend the money for quality products.
you've been living under a rock for the past 5 years to realize the incredible pro level products Griots has come out with. They have some of the best RD now from guys from 3M and Meguiars and are growing at a pretty big rate lately. Just because they sell products at Walmart or retail does not mean they are bad it means they have good distribution marketing and are hitting all channels which is smart.
