DETAIL CO SLIM and THICK ceramic coatings from THOR - The House Of Rags - Application and results

[@ssjcajas]

I love that you called it Detail Company instead of just Detail Co like everyone else.

[@TheOutdoorDetailer]

Honestly, I've probably referred to it as both in my videos so far.

Thick... At 74* F, and 70+% humidity, I was getting the sweating in 30-45 seconds. I typically waited a full minute, but i found longer started getting grabby. Knowing Eddie's feelings on grabby coatings, I knew not to wait longer than a minute. So easy...

Another great video, thanks. About panel prep, I believe that the primary function is a solvent and to work the surface needs covering in it. Panel prep dissolves any oils and then it’s wiped off. Wiping a soaked cloth around a panel does not allow it to dissolve and remove the oils, more like you dissolve them and then wipe them around. In the detailing world there seems to be a great deal of confusion on panel prep. The idea that a particular panel prep is linked to a particular coating is also untrue. There are prep sprays, hardeners, for coatings but panel preps should leave nothing behind and so are not coating specific. Upol slow panel wipe is recommended.

If it's not leaving puddles behind, it's not soaked. The fibers will continue to soak up the stuff that is being lifted from the surface. Also, some companies do recommend that you soak the surface, and others say spray in the towel. Look at it this way, if using a damp towel only pushed stuff around, then using a double flip with a rinseless wash would never pick up any dirt.

@ I can’t disagree with what you are saying as it’s true! However it doesn’t mean it’s the most effective or efficient method. The idea of panel prep is to remove everything and just wiping doesn’t remove everything. I feel detailers say panel prep is important but then use it casually so it is not as effective as it could be. I don’t understand this. I would say that most detail companies do not know what they are talking about when it comes to panel prep. They just see it as a profitable add on. I believe current thinking is a solvent based panel wipe and a separate surficant based panel prep are necessary to completely remove polishing oils. Furthermore these two liquids do not play together and idea of using them in tandem has little scientific validity - gyeon prep…

[@TheOutdoorDetailer]

I always do 2 or three rounds with panel prep, and even after polishing I usually do a rinseless.

How long does the thick 30 ml last

[@TheOutdoorDetailer]

Supposed to be an up to 5 year coating. I hope that's what you were looking for. My car is a daily driver and sits outside 24/7 and I drive 15-20k miles a year so if I get 2 years good performance, I would be good with that.

Does it give “ wet look “like wax

[@TheOutdoorDetailer]

I honestly haven't used wax since the mid 90's, but looking at things, I can't say there is a "wet look" It is just glossy and slick. The sponge also glides across easily and even when washing on a relatively dirty surface, the sponge moves across with less effort than a non coated surface. I wish I could answer better for you. I will say use Thick if you are contemplating using one of these coatings. Oh, and for Cyber Monday they are 40% off!!

looks like flooding and sheeting on the hood

[@TheOutdoorDetailer]

With a lot of water it just sheets off. With less water or if you fan it, it is crazy beading that will slide off as the drops all move together. You apply a lot of water to any coating and it should not leave beads.

[@clints8888]

Hmm I appreciate what you’re saying but water being sprayed on the car at the 35.45 minute mark is sheeting nearly 1/2 the bonnet, it wouldn’t happen with many different coating ( try to flood the bonnet on a nasiol coating)

@@clints8888 Shout out to beaters and sheeters
