I think of RainX as being a windscreen repellent company so this product really surprised me. With it's ease of application and reasonable longevity, it looks great to me. However, I'll still continue with Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Wax as it has a significant jetting and gloss boost that I can see without a meter and multiple application methods for slow or quick application. It also fares consistently well in durability tests.

I had no idea RainX would perform this well. In the eighties there was not any protection this strong as both are good four to six month sealants. There are companies who market graphene as the top product in their lineup. The first thing graphene did was make the ceramic coating manufacturers step up their game. The chemists appear to be getting more confident with graphene but we are no where near the ceiling for graphene in my opinion. Thank you for the video.

@gabevillarreal962 жыл бұрын
@@Phuong_Nguyen_ Great question. I do it just like this: First I hand wash and dry the entire vehicle. If your car's paint feels bumpy when clean I'd do an iron remover first then a clay bar or mitt before adding protection. After the car is dry, I spray two sprays per panel of Seal N Shine like half a hood and work it in using a cross hatch pattern. Front to back and side to side overlapping on every pass. Then I immediately buff off. I do the entire car top to bottom. Now I wash my car 52 times a year by hand every Sunday so depending on how often you wash it determines the next step. After a week, I wash my car by hand and dry it. Once it's dry I do the exact same method as I did with Seal n Shine on this time with TW Ice Spray Wax. After that I would apply the I've spray wax every time I wash my car because it's so easy and it just adds protection and slickness and gloss. Your sealant has already bonded to your paint as your foundation and the ice spray wax on top every week just adds layers of protection. If you wash your car every two weeks or a month it works out perfectly. If you don't want to apply it every wash then just follow my instructions and apply Seal n shine and a week later ice spray wax and you will be good for around 4- 6 months depending on your conditions. Garage kept or outside 24/7. Either way it's super easy and fun! Best of luck!

I use 303 Graphene on all my customers with black, grey, or silver vehicles. Direct sunlight with hot panels is no problem but work quickly. It takes a bit more time to cure and not be grabby.

I do not believe you are using your infrared thermometer in a way that is accurately measuring the panel temperature. The infrared is emitted as a cone and the further away you position it from the panel the larger the circle being detected is. When you were taking your measurements it appears you were actually probably including the tip of the gun. Just a thought, it doesn’t look like either product was affected by whatever level of heat was introduced.

I am talking about road salt, anti-icing sprays like calcium, UV rays, bird poop, and so on.
