@jaycee _ Sorry for the late reply. People who are having a hard time with this product streaking and leaving high spots are applying way to much product. This just like a lot of other products now days a little bit goes a long ways and if applied to heavy you are going to have a bad experience. A damp microfiber will level out any streaking or high spots and you do want to make sure you dry it after using the damp microfiber. Also that will not strip the protection using a damp microfiber but 24 hours of cure time is recommended (like all Si02 products) if it dosen't have a proper cure time then you will see the protection prematurely break down. Personally for the price I would strongly recommend picking some up and giving it a shot to get your own experience using it.

@Do NotComply Did you try applying it like the bottle says and not other channels? If you had that bad of an experience using it I would say you are using way to much product and that will cause the problems that you are describing. A damp microfiber will not strip this product off. Did you dry the area right after you used the damp microfiber and did you also all it 24 hours to cure before letting it get wet or exposed to any other chemicals? I know we all have different experiences with products but I just have a really hard time thinking that you had this bad of an experience with this product.

I use both....i bought Griots on a whim just to compare it w TW Hybrid Ceramic spray....NO....visible diff thus far....i want to apply both to my SUV hood, 1/2 Griots, 1/2 Tw Ceramic....just do a real world endurance and gloss test....I honestly believe u cannot go wrong w either one. I used to cringe...30+ yrs ago w any TW product....i associated the TW brand w economic products, low expectations, thus rarely used. Reading last several years of reviews, how Turtle Wax has a PREMIUM line of products, and Medium cost product line...that have rave reviews, ease of use, gloss and durability. So this year i gave the TW Hybrid-Ceramic product line a try....and was very pleased with everything about it. Years ago i spent considerable elbow grease, polishing and buffing carnuba waxes. Now i am retired, looking for someting easier to apply w my polisher....TW ceramic spray....after investing some elbow grease i n decontaminating prep,and polish...is my new go to product...4 cars done, very pleased...will now give Griots a shot too, may combine them...use Griots after every other car wash.

It wasn't a fun product to use and the user experience was not the best. BUT now Turtle Wax has stepped their game up BIG time and their new line up is absolutely awesome and give such a great user experience using and will not wear you out.

Griot’s was highly recommended so I bought a bottle ($19.99 - $5 reward/rebate) for a 22 FP oz. I actually asked my place I take my car to for a hand wash what he thought of it, he never heard of this brands ceramic wax but he used it on my new car after he did the full detail. He was SOOOOOO AMAZED and LOVED it. He’s used other ceramic waxes and said this was so much easier to put on and off and used not too much (he sprayed it on the towel vs the surface). I was supposed to put on another layer the next day but like usual in Florida, it rained both days over the weekend until the evening, so I didn’t. He did offer to put it on again when I come back to get the hand wash because it’s just easy to put on and buff (wipe). I have a steel blue (Hagane is the name) and it was BEAUTIFUL, the gloss was amazing. I call the color the new black because if done right, it shines just as glossy as the black does.

I also think it is much better to spray it into the microfiber towel for a couple reasons, one it does seem to apply better and a lot more evenly, and two because for me it helps with not over applying it onto a panel, I can do a few sprays on a panel and think its not enough but with a micro fiber towel one spray and I think is a lot.

With the Turtle Wax, they say it should last approximately one year, with the Griots 3 in 1, I believe they say it should last around 3 to 6 months. My thoughts are that turtle wax claims their product needs to be polished/compounded off when you want to clear the slate and apply a different product. I used the turtle wax on one of my cars and accidentally over sprayed one panel that was already treated when I was treating the next panel, (I did not notice that until after the second coat cured) and the only way to get the raised spots off would be to polish it out and re-apply. What I like about the 3 in 1 is that you can put it on once every three months or so, and it does not have to be polished off. If you have any raised spots, you simply reapply some product and you’re all set. One last thing, since I am anal about my vehicles… If you apply the turtle wax on your black trim (but did not want to), you can’t polish that off. I feel with the 3 in 1, it’s not as permanent and safer if you make a mistake. Besides, If you’re an enthusiast like I am, you don’t want to set it and forget it for a year… I like playing with different products. One final note - I just saw a three month test between the two on youtube, and the water beading on the 3 in 1out-performed the water beading on the turtle wax ceramic spray coating. Your thoughts?
@MeanBee3924 жыл бұрын
The Turtle Wax is a very strong product and can cause problems like you are saying. That's why they say in the instructions to spray it into a microfiber towel for application. Not saying that's how I always do it but that will help eliminate the chance of the over the spray problems. They are both really great products and I use both of them, it just comes down to what I am doing and how long I was a protective layer to last. On my daily driver I like to apply something that I can just put on and forget about for a while other than maintenance washes. But on my Chevelle I love to use a Carnuba wax just because I love spending time and getting in that wax and cleaning therapy while enjoying my car. I know water beading gets a lot of attention and it is easy to think that if the beads are not tight and tons of them then the protection is not there but that's not the case. For me playing around with the Turtle Wax after a while it goes from beading more to sheeting more so the protection is still there but its characteristic change a bit over time. My video coming out tomorrow really shows what I am talking about with the beading and sheeting if you would be interested in checking it out. Great points and questions and thanks for watching and commenting!

By the end of the torture test the untreated center section was sheeting as quickly the treated side sections. Does that mean all the wiping and rinsing was spreading the chemicals onto the untreated center section?

I do think that was happening and I didn't realize it when I was filming. In the future I think I will use different microfiber towels for each side to keep that from happening.

@BigBear--2 жыл бұрын
Using a damp towel is a bad recommendation for applying the Griots 3-in-1. Besides SIO2, it contains Carnuba wax, which if you have any water in your application, is gonna leave streak marks/swirls in the finish after application. This isn't an opinion, its been tried and tested. That's also why you can't use it as a drying aid either, unlike some other spray on Ceramic protectants/detailers.
@MeanBee3922 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the input and info!
@BigBear--2 жыл бұрын
@@MeanBee392 No worries, reason I say its a bad recommendation is you never know what someone else's definition of "damp" will be, at some point damp turns to wet, and that's what causes the finish problems.

Thanks, what a great video. One of the best products review I have ever seen! When my car was totally new they made pro level coating for it in the car shop fixing. My plan is to help coating with some simple solution like this. Do you think it is good idea. Just very good cleaning and then adding the protection? Repeat after 24 hours. Or should I just wait another year with original coating and be happy :-) My car coating is still amazing and runs water perfectly. Very easy to clean and so on. Dries very easily with a blower or just driving.
@MeanBee3924 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the kind words and I am glad to hear that you enjoyed the video! That is a great question! I would use either one of these product of your choice after a good wash and if your coating is still holding up great like you said I would only do one application. This will help put life back into your coating and keep it lasting longer by doing a maintenance step like this. I would say every 5 to 6 months hit it again with another application and you will have crazy life span out of your coating. Hopefully that all makes sense and if you have any other questions hit me up! Thanks for watching and commenting!
