    been using Shinee wax for a few months now, it is great! I often use it as post wash detailer and the gloss is great and it rarely leaves any marks on the paint, super easy to work with too! just keep away from direct sun/hot panels and it'll leave a very deep and glossy shine.

    Secret tip: if you ever get your hand on ODK Echo, HB Sauce Montan Madness, and/or Wax-Planet Obsidian or Assassin, try and test them. By far the best waxes I tried when it comes to anvisible i crease in finish. Not sure if that really is „gloss“ or just a change in light reflections, but would be really good candidates. Thanks for the test, very thourough and conclusive!

  • @nicksdragon6929
    @nicksdragon6929 4 года назад

    Jon, you really put gloss readings into perspective with your work; Job well done. You showed mathematically, how good and how close each of these products really is to each other. Especially since the difference between the top and bottom products on the list was just 5 points; let me explain. We have to remember the human eye can’t even see the difference in gloss when the change is less than 8-10-points from the baseline reading. So, looking at Griots, for example, the total of six readings changed by 6 points, so when you divide the 6-point total by the 6 tests, you end up with a net change in the gloss of 1-point; basically, it’s invisible to us. When you look at your top test, TAC systems, which had 12 points from six tests, and then divide by six, the average is only 2 points from the baseline. The top product was +2 and the lowest was -3. I love it because we all feel the product after we put it on our cars to gauge the slickness, but we still can’t see the difference in the gloss. Basically, you can’t go wrong with any of these for gloss and it comes down to personal preference. On the opposite side of the coin is durability and that we have learned is very different in the products you displayed. And finally, the cost can now be weighted greater in our decision process because the products are, for all intents and purposes the same to the human eye. In this business you have to be real about expenses and the products you choose will reflect on your reputation which is how we get loyal customers and referrals. So, since the products are all about the same in gloss, durability, is what will or will not protect your reputation and bring back repeat business and it is the cost of the product that will keep you in business.

    Fantastic!! I have been playing around with several combinations of products and while it’s extremely intensive the only way I have been able to consistently reach higher 90’s on the gloss meeter was with a base coating of CQuartz UK 3.0, followed by Geyon Can Coat, then Angel Wax High Gloss, then finish with P21s Concourse paste wax. It’s always a several day process but the outcome is worth it! Paste wax never lasts long over a coating but it gives it that warm glow that just can’t be recreated with a coating

I did use Shinee on my wife’s black SUV and it gives off a wet glossy look I was very happy with. However, it loses some of it gloss within a couple days as where PA high gloss stays glossy weeks after its applied with no need to top it after several washes. Shinee vs PA high gloss will be very hard to tell the difference when first applied. Oh and I am a product whore that using my wife’s ride as a lad-rat before making it onto mine. ;)

    Would the Gyeon not be the best choice simply from an ease of application stand point? Seems like it's a simple spray on and wipe off as as drying aid whereas the Shinee has to be wiped on with an applicator and then wiped off.

      Bet the ceramics would have done better if they were cured. I am assuming but I don't think he let them cure at all. From apex detailing, the graphine really gains lots of gloss after a day or two of cure time.

    Another stella vid John, Ive checked out some other reviews (clearly not as good as you lol) and seen GU improvements of 9.6 and 10.1 this was on a black car and the other on a white but even the white car popped very impressed, so as normal went on line and it must be good as its sold out all over the place so ended up buying the 4000ml so I set for life with this stuff, wife stated "you have 9 wax things why do you need another" maybe its a man thing but looking forward to trying it so thanks for the heads up bud but you cost me a bloody fortune but I love it.

    i agree ceramics are not as glossy on application but it seems within a few days the gloss massively increases...I throughly belive that lite-weight ceramics need to be washed off, and remove the "dried out" product. I would be really curious if you did a small mini test about this on a small square panel, gloss before, after, and then after a shampoo wash. I think the gloss will increase after a shampoo wash jon, would be very curious.

    Unless I am simply being completely dumb I have to admit that I am puzzled by the results......
    To clarify looking at just the Adams Data Sample:
    20 Degree Gloss - Adams Pre Application result 82.8/84.3/83.9 = Ave 83.67
    20 Degree Gloss - Adams Post Application result 82.8/85.5/85.0 = Ave 84.43
    20 Degree Gloss Ave Increase = 0.76
    RSpec - Adams Pre Application result 76.2/78.5/77.3 = Ave 77.33
    RSpec - Adams Post Application result 71.2/81.3/78.4 = Ave 76.97
    RSpec Ave DEcrease = 0.36
    If you do a "logic check" (really this is a simple "Standard Deviation" test and for small data points is easier than the ridiculous SD calculation) by simply looking at the values of numbers all looks good for the 20 Degree Gloss reading - the pattern is for the reading to be similar or a slight increase.
    BUT for the RSpec readings #1 looks wrong.
    #1 = -5.0
    #2 = +2.8
    #3 = +1.1
    A negative 5 reading looks completely at odds with the other positive numbers and suggests an error in either the Pre or Post reading (or simply written down wrong??)
    I have tabulated the information for you.
    docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18qiYAuiFK810Ydkmor98ADd200yfhdKGlK0pX7_Wjf0/edit?usp=sharing
    I have checked my data as much as I can against your own numbers.
    Looks like there are a couple of minor calculator errors but there are also a few other "logic check" numbers that look suspect.
    Where the numbers look at odds with the logic check, probably best to exclude the pre and post values completely to give a fairer representation.
    As always loving the great work though!!!!

      It's a nice detail spray to have, not really essential. I think DDsi is the best topper in terms of looks, easy of application, water behaviour abs lasts 3-4 weeks. Showstopper lasts up to 5 days in dry weather. It looks a tiny bit better than DDsi.

      It is *insane* on top of a quality coating's cool bright gloss.. adds some of the warm glow of natural wax and a dripping wet gloss. You will *not* be disappointed there. It is short lived though, a few weeks/washes, but it's worth it. I break it out to top show cars and my high end packages right before they leave.

    I'm confused by this test. Using the mean scores, Shinee Wax increased gloss by a total of 3.96 gloss units. From what I have read, only a change of 5 gloss units is perceptible to the human eye. Based on this, the gloss added by Shinee wax isn't perceptible. Am I missing something here?

      from a gloss perspective. if I took a car with high gloss from having good condition paint (high physical gloss). and I apply shinee wax to one side or one half. You will not be able to tell which side I applied shinee wax to. so yes you are kind of correct. its a long discussion though.
