Smart Fabric is awesome. Loved your comparative demo with the water. That stuff is the real deal. But it does have a strong odor. I actually wear a respirator when coating interior fabrics (carpet, seats). Fortunately it dissipates after a few hours.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@Bruces-Garage agreed the odor is strong. Excited for kxc because it smells good. Good some good huffs in at sema

[@wescat2]

Polstar is definitely a banger. I got a few foaming pump bottles like soap dispensers to use for Polstar. Works fantastic.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@wescat2 agreed! Love the stuff

[@wescat2]

@@FineDetailingAZ The speedball brush is so nice. I need to get one

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@wescat2 It feels great in the hand too.

[@MikeGDetailing]

The fabric coating demo was the money shot. The interior is dialed in.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@MikeGDetailing thanks brother! The water behavior was crazy cool

[@SlowGT3]

Great vid. I too was surprised how many interior cleaners have a ph >10. Had a great experience with Pol Star over the years at 15:1

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@SlowGT3 thanks! I was surprised as well. PHN is all most need. Love pol star

[@BXGreen_DrivewayDetails]

Great demos need to try all of this! Thanks 😊

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@BXGreen_DrivewayDetails thank you Becca!

[@AMJRS1_813]

Great video, learned about some products to try out, wish I knew about the smart fabric before.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thank you so much for watching! I'm so glad it was helpful. Smart fabric is amazing.

[@Bruces-Garage]

@@FineDetailingAZSmart Fabric has been my go to protection for fabrics, carpet, and convertible tops.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

it's really great. Looking forward to the KCX version.

[@mustikkap]

I defenitly have to try Pol Star and maybe other Koch products also. Too bad they aren't exactly the easiest ones to source locally. Smart Fabric too seems really interesting product, might give it a try someday. Just found out the channel and subscribed. Keep up the good work!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thanks for the support! Not sure where you are located but Pol Star is on Amazon. Gtech Smart Fab is amazing!

[@mustikkap]

@@FineDetailingAZ I'm from Finland. Amazon doesn't really ship chemicals here or the shipping cost is 2x the cost of product. I found one small local store selling them but I haven't heard of them before.

[@1stfrompuertorico568]

Nice!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thank you!

[@maxs7976]

I had the same experience using xpress, griots, then moving to Pol Star. I now mostly just use a damp microfiber with ADS Hero rinseless.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@maxs7976 really all you need for maintenance! Thank you for watching

[@ChingyBlingy]

I’ve been using rinseless for maintenance cleaning as well. So much quicker!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@ it’s an underrated cleaner for sure. I haven’t tried rinseless on material though I’d be curious to see how it does

[@Mikeey684]

Have you used any of the colorlock products. Like leather shield or protector. They are owned by koch chemie now

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@Mikeey684 I haven’t yet. I did check the sds sheets and they are slightly acidic in nature whereas Geist is truly ph neutral. But color lock is well respected.

[@Thai.H]

6-8.5 can disclosed as pH neutral

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Exactly, thats why I always look at SDS sheets. Pol Star is exactly pH of 7. Thank you for watching.

[@waterhose4130]

First of all, that interior color works real good with the Dravit Grey... BANGIN!! I use POL a lot, but my sense of smell is gone, LOL. The Blue Bottle line is less industrial, with better fragrance. The Cockpit Care, and Multi Interior Cleaner work very well, but aren't as cost effective I guess. Been meaning to ask you... Do you use GreenStar? I'm changing up my wash routine, and foaming GreenStar on as a prewash. I'm wondering if you have used MultiStar ever, as it's only available in a 5L, which is a big commitment.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thanks Walter! I spec'd the interior and I'm loving it. I will have to try the blue bottle line of pol star to check the scent. I love it because you can dilute it and it's so cheap and will last forever. I don't use green star as a pre wash but could be a good option but also probably not needed that often. It's a pH of 12.5 and MSN is a 13.1. I'm just not sure anything that aggressive is needed. Even with salty roads i bet active foam could do the job at 9.5 pH. That said GS is super cheap and you can dilute it. It would be cool if you mixed it then foamed it in a bucket then checked the pH to see if it dropped. My reasoning behind trying to avoid super high pH is not so much about the ceramic coatings but more so the rubber seals and plastics. I feel like they will dry out much sooner. If you use it in a pump sprayer and just spray your lowers that could be your best bet.

[@waterhose4130]

@ I have to get a ph tester. I used it at 20:1 in an IK foamer. Side panels only, rinsed it off, then did a rinseless wash on the entire car. Any way I can avoid setting up the pressure washer, lol

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@ yeah I ordered the strips on Amazon they are more accurate then the digital. Super cheap

[@waterhose4130]

@ you’ve tried Primus, thoughts compared to Active Foam?

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@ love them both…just used AF today. That said primus is VDA certified so we know it’s safe on plastics whereas AF may not be. The other thing is I notice primus dwells longer. AF scent is awesome though. As I type this I’m realizing I’d give the edge to primus.

[@ChingyBlingy]

I got the Nasiol trim coat as well. Haven’t used it yet but I’m excited to try it now. Were you able to get the whole vehicle inside and out with just the one 30ml?

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@ChingyBlingy oh yeah and I had plenty left. To be fair my vehicle doesn’t have any external plastics so I did the interior kick plates Andy he engine bay. A little goes a long way though you should be fine.

[@goindetailing]

Great job Ryan! Thanks for reminding me about the Curveball brush. I always forget to use it and it makes for much faster work than the smaller brushes. I got Geist Repel that I’m anxious to try. Looks like Nasiol Trimcoat is a solid option. With its darkening effect I’d assume it’d work well on older, faded plastics. I’m looking forward to the release of Colourlock/KCx Allround Textile Sealant. Saw it at Sema and it actually smells good compared to most of the fabric guards having that strong smell as you mentioned with the Gtechniq. The interior color on the X5 looks great and the diamond stitching is fantastic. Great new car video series!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@goindetailing thanks Patrick! I’ve used Geist repel and it’s great. I’m excited for KCX fabric sealant too.

[@TheMobileDetailShop1296]

You can dilute any of them and you should. I go for best cost effective.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@TheMobileDetailShop1296 thanks for watching. Yeah pol star is super cheap and at 1:15 or even 1:20 it will last a while

[@konstantinos9447]

Hellooo and greetings from Greece! I want to ask you something. Do you ever use the smart fabric on fabric seats? Thanks in advance!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@konstantinos9447 hi! Thanks for watching! Yes smart fabric is great in seats

[@konstantinos9447]

@FineDetailingAZ Thanks you very much

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@ my pleasure

[@michaelhalstead64]

I learned things. Do you think the specialty ceramics are really that different? If I have some leftover normal ceramic, why not just use that.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@michaelhalstead64 glad it was helpful! Are you referring to the trim coat? Why not use regular ceramic on the trim vs speciality? If so, that’s a good point most normal ceramic is good to use on plastic but the trim coat is designed specifically for plastic vs an all around like a regular ceramic. I view this the same as regular ceramic on glass… it will work but wasn’t designed just for glass so might not last as long vs a dedicated glass coating that was designed for that sub straight. The last thing is I’m not sure how exterior ceramic would look on interior plastic but you could do a test spot to see how it looks. Since the Nasiol mentioned it’s okay to use on interior I felt safe doing so.

[@michaelhalstead64]

@ yep, that’s what I was referring to. Makes sense. I might test it on some spots. I figured no harm in the engine bay. Maybe the heat will be an issue. I’ve only used one interior ceramic and one glass ceramic and sometimes I feel like it’s just a rebottled version of the normal. If that makes sense. Thanks!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@ fair enough! A really good glass coating that is actually a different chemical is ADS V2. Interior I’m not so worried about your just want a layer to protect you from a scuff so I’m betting a regular ceramic could work

[@1stfrompuertorico568]

While not ideal for you if you’re watching on a tv you could change your picture mode to help. Again, not your issue this one is on me. Disliking the video isn't necessary as this hurts the video.
