ARMOUR CERAMIC Vs TECHNICIANS CHOICE!! Ceramic Paint Protection Durability Test

[@charlesbrasington7599]

Can’t justify the cost difference for Armor at $130.00 a gallon to Tec 582 at $40.00 a gallon I’ll stick with 582 for a drying aid Good video buddy

[@HawaiiDetailing]

Thanks

[@itachi1540]

If I wanted an insane drying aid griots 3 in 1 lasts a year and can be used as one. theres no point since tech 582 is probably going on top of a coating already. Even better is Gyeon Wetcoat because places you can't reach get a coating then I use the tech 582 for door jam and wheel drying.

[@eugenescherzinger4395]

@@itachi1540you use 582 on the door jams and wheels while they are wet? I’ll have to try that

Will you please do a head to head against DIY Ceramic Gloss vs Armor please sir!

[@reddyuda]

TEC582 is amazing because it applies so easily. I apply it every time I wash my car as a drying aid, after leaf blower drying most of the water off. Lasts maybe 2 weeks of wet weather in Florida, but since I apply it every wash it doesn't matter. I have yet to find a drying aid I prefer more

[@Jonathan-pr1wo]

would recommend using a quick detailer for a drying aid.

[@HawaiiDetailing]

Thanks for sharing

[@RD-io6sm]

If you're only getting 2 weeks out of that stuff you must be doing something wrong. I get 2-3 months out of it.

[@HawaiiDetailing]

Thanks for sharing. I am really liking everything I tried so far as well.

[@wesoakes]

Wouldn’t a 1:1 comparison be 582 vs ADS Amplify (ceramic detailer)?

[@colbygraves9298]

Man.. if this tells me anything it’s that I should be using Adams wheel and tire cleaner as a decon wash!! I’d love to see you implement something like OG Decon soap or CarPro Descale to see how that stuff takes off toppers.

[@HawaiiDetailing]

Great suggestion!

[@mattmccauley5561]

Yes you should use Adam's as a decon wash as well. It's frigging awesome and works extremely well. Just make sure to foam it on. I found it works better that way as it has a little better cling and dwell time just don't let it dry anywhere. You don't have to dilute it but you could just be weaker.

[@chrisbradley3224]

Adam's wheel and tire cleaner is definitely a destroyer.

[@SIat]

All the tests of Tech 582 seem to overlook what happens once you build up a couple layers of product. After a few washes of applying it as a drying aid I've found it to be much more durable and hydrophobic. Once you get that layer stacked up its awesome!

[@HawaiiDetailing]

Good point

[@lucashurley7612]

I have not seen anyone try this yet. Ill have to check by giving one of my pesonals an bi weekly wash.

[@G0F15H]

​@HawaiiDetailing You've said in the past that you don't like building up layers, but can you explain that a little bit? I wash every 5-7 days and alternate between Tec582 and Bead Maker and feel it has built up a REALLY nice layer. From a cost-equivalent standpoint you could wash your car every 10 days and apply Tec582 each time; I think that would provide superior results to using Armour about once a month.

[@HawaiiDetailing]

@@G0F15H what I mean is that using really durable sealants too often is not needed. I like to apply a strong sealant and then I use a less durable products as a drying aid for my weekly wash. Applying 6 month sealants every wash would be excessive but some people ask if this is ok. I would re-apply the heavy sealant when there is evidence of it fading. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching

[@G0F15H]

@@HawaiiDetailing That makes sense. Thanks for the reply!

[@viperrcr]

Since no one has mentioned it, I will point out that Tec582 Ceramic Detail Spray does NOT have SiO₂ in it, according to the Technician’s Choice SDS, it only has these ingredients [Isopropyl Alcohol and Silicone Micro-Emulsion] which makes it primarily a silicone polymer detail spray. Great price, but false advertising. SDS: www.technicianschoice.net/displayPDF.asp?F=010000009DA5DB454E2A76FBF7526FEB763F8EC5231C1531550FBDE2CB213EA84C9A.pdf

"sheeting" products get a bad rap or get a negative connotation. I'm someone who's vehicle is outside 24/7 (no car port or garage). For me sheeting is more desired as it makes it easier to dry my truck. Beads look nice but if they are not addressed then they'll become water spots. GREAT VID AS USUAL.

So we are going to be cleaning them, and applying these products way more than the average person. I unfortunately have to drive my car in the VT winters, I always fluid film it, and keep a ton of protection on it. During those days you can actually spray it off I use 582 after.
