Garage Therapy /Three Ceramic Sealant Review

[@GarageTherapyOfficial]

Very well shot and informative review Specky. Thanks for taking the time to be part of the products development and testing. Like you, we are delighted with the end result. Applying any tenacious product in high temperatures and humidity is challenging. Very good technique employed here. 👍🏻

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Thank you guys, you've nailed another fantastic product there. Thank you for allowing me to be part of the journey 👊

[@epicautomotivedetailing]

insane specky well done mate!

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Cheers bro 👊

[@steverabbits]

Specky, you explain things so well pal! Really excellent stuff!

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Thanks mate 👊

[@darrenburchmore]

GT for the win. Not one bad product from these guys. Sigma is amazing. Going through it so quickly

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Totally agree, got a video on Sigma coming soon 👍

[@simonwhalley1743]

Sigma is astonishing stuff. It’s my favourite product of the year so far.

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

You're not the first to say that and I'm sure you won't be the last 😎

[@ObsessiveCarDetailer]

Hi Specky, you have to get his car back to apply Sigma soon .If you think the car was slick this time, wait until you apply Sigma. The gloss & slickness is insane.

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

I already did 😂 I'll apply it on Natalie's car for the review 👍

[@stevenjones19-m8i]

Hi Specky, great review on the GT 3CS,you didn't use much at all,the cloths on the car almost blew away with the slick on the bonnet.

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Thanks Steven, it wasn't planned but I'm glad the camera was rolling to catch that 😁👍

[@richardleonard7479]

thanks guys

[@baldypel]

Nice one Craig. Very informative as always 👍 Garage Therapy are becoming the go to UK detailing company.

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Thanks Magee, I think you're right 👍

[@GarageTherapyOfficial]

Thank you 😊

[@owensteele1274]

LOL @ the Paul Dolden shoutout. Another funny detailer.

[@philipdemarco9222]

Excellent again mate! Well done on being part of the R & D of this product. From seeing it being applied to it actually curing what is the difference and what was it like the day after? Great brand 👏 🌈

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Thanks Phil! I applied GT Two Sigma as a topper around an hour later as I was worried it would rain.

[@philipdemarco9222]

@@SpeckyMcSporran Did it change it much? Looks a great combo tbh 👍🌈

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

I can't say too much before the Sigma video but the car was glossy before application and more glossy after.

[@philipdemarco9222]

So exciting 👍👍👍👍🌈

[@williamdwallace6538]

Another very informative video on how to use that product properly well done specky 👍🚗

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Thank you Bill 🙏

[@tmphotography8443]

I end up cleaning my fathers 4x4 but all I get is WHAT'S THAT? WHATS THAT DO ? and loads of other questions as he sits in a chair watching with a cuppa. If only I could keep him from using the scratch n shine washes he tends to use often as well. This looks impressive though, I've put Fusso and later some wax on his jeep but this would do just as well or better it seems. Much quicker to apply than a Fusso though and yes Martin the wife has gone to bed and I'm sitting with a glass of tango and some biscuits as promised

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Yeah I think application is really fast as long as you make sure the surface is decontaminated and possibly polished first. Very impressive, and there's the other maintenance products to keep it looking good too 👍

[@mohamedmahasseb1461]

Very good explanation thank you very much and I love the way you talk . Keep going

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Thanks mate 👍

[@glosjdm]

I've done 10 applications from one bottle so works out at £1.80 per application. So very cost effective

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Excellent value for money 👍

[@silksdetailing]

Great video specky, brilliant product and very informative.

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Thank you sir 👊

[@x8dudtrackdaytoy]

Great review, CS is the next product I’m looking to try on my own car and as an option for clients 👍🏻

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

👌

[@SparkleanAutos]

I assume, because it had been decontaminated relatively recently, that swirling wasn't an issue when you were claying? I use the same G3 mitt and I know how effective it us without being too aggressive, just curious as I've only used it when I'm about to machine polish. The big merc looks amazing though (be even nicer when you dress those tyres 😋)... Good job - to you AND Garage Therapy 👍🏼👍🏼

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

I haven't been too bothered about swirling, that's for a future polishing video. I was really happy with the look of the car and I look forward to seeing how it looks when wet and how easy it is to clean.

[@SparkleanAutos]

@@SpeckyMcSporran looks fantastic, I'm sure your dad is delighted! He should be 😂😂🤣🤣

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

I'd prefer a little more gratitude from him 😂

[@kevdavies3445]

started trying GT since watching you very impressive Sigma is magic in a bottle. Thanks. Kevin

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Cheers Kevin, got a Sigma video coming soon. 👍

[@Yorkie900]

Really good video Specky. The gloss levels on the merc are seriously good. Quick question mate: As the product is so easy to use (relatively speaking) would there be any advantage in layering it? Obviously this might involve keeping it in a garage for the necessary curing time? I realise you don't have a big enough garage but do you have any information on applying more than one coat?

[@GarageTherapyOfficial]

There is benefit to layer yes. To get full 5 months (we have seen more) you will need two coats. You can do one coat and top up with Sigma, that will also give you 5 months +.

[@Quint1975]

Hello, am i right in saying a polish, then wax followed by this sealant is the correct way to apply finishing products post wash and dry?

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

It depends on the products you're using. Usually after the polish you'll want to add the longest lasting protection (usually sealants last longer than wax) then you can top it (personal preference) with a wax for depth of shine and gloss.

[@Quint1975]

@@SpeckyMcSporran thanks for taking the time to reply, now I have the right process I just need to decide on the products. More video watching and review reading incoming.

No problems, thanks for watching! 👍🏻

Lovely Jubbly, a great review of this product Mr Scottie.

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Thank you, kind sir! 👍

[@waysidecarvaleting]

Hi Specky. Will be applying GT /Three CS soon. I don't have IPA at this time. What was your own concoction made of? Also any recommendations for IPA if you don't want to give it away?

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

It's a recipe that Jon at Forensic Detailing made up, you'll find it on his channel. You don't have to use that, you can mix 20% IPA into distilled water or buy a panel wipe product.

[@waysidecarvaleting]

@@SpeckyMcSporran Thanks very much. Cheers. Any recommendations.

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Gyeon Prep gets good reviews, Gtechniq PW too.

[@ghostinthemachine76]

Using the clay mit with the Zero shampoo, what a great idea. But doesn’t it need polishing after claying?

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Technically yes, it's best practice to polish after claying.

[@ghostinthemachine76]

Specky McSporran So why didn’t you then, especially on a black car? 🤷🏻‍♂️😉

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

Time constraints.

[@ghostinthemachine76]

Specky McSporran Yeah I thought that. Did it actually need a polish?

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

It had been clayed not too long ago so it was relatively free from contaminants. Plus the nice lubrication from the shampoo and the large surface of the clay mitt means there wasn't much damage inflicted to the paint. Honestly I didn't think it needed a polish although it is best practice.

[@richardleonard7479]

Hi mate can you tell me how to mix my own panel wipe thanks

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

I followed the recipe from the Forensic Detailing channel.

[@steverabbits]

Jon at the Forensic Detailing Channel uses 30% IPA, 70% water I believe?

[@sixtysecondsofstephens2386]

Good review. I like your clay mit. All there products look good. Be good to see this Vs the turtle wax spray and shine.

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

They're quite different in application but I'd love to try them side-by-side in a long term test.

[@sixtysecondsofstephens2386]

@@SpeckyMcSporran I know you recommend me the turtle wax and it's incredible. So easy to use, I've done 3 cars with it so far.

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

It's really good 👍

[@hakman239]

An ipa panel wipe isn’t the most affective get upol slow it’s a body shop grade panel wipe hell of a lot stronger then ipa and Iv seen video of it stripping fusso it will remove tar it’s that strong

[@GarageTherapyOfficial]

Good tip Hakim. Normally blended solvents and alcohol mixes are more effective that just alcohol on its own.

[@christye6013]

I remember your "Is wax dead" video, this is another nail in the coffin. Anybody want to buy a wax and QD collection?

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

🤣

[@Audittr2108]

GT don’t do anything average! You’re clay method is exactly what I do too👍

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

I was a little slap dash this time but there was barely anything on the panel this time. Love using the shampoo as a clay lube 👌

[@gsbut]

Claying the paint without a subsequent machine polish is controversial!

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

It is, but I'm saving it for a later video about polishing.

[@gsbut]

@@SpeckyMcSporran but as you were not going to polish before application, was the clay really a necessary step (considering the multiple chemical decon already used) before applying the sealant?

[@SpeckyMcSporran]

I did it to be sure that the paint had nothing left that may possibly interfere with the application process. The chemical decontamination won't remove everything so I'm just being doubly sure.
