Hydro Slick UPDATE | Did I Apply it Wrong the First Time? Let's See...

[@not_the_stig]

I've used this stuff on my 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia and my dad's 67 E type. No issues on either car. I know it works as I did a test on the trunk of my Alfa before tackling the entire car. When I washed the car off after the test area the soap was sliding off the trunk surface. I will be applying this to all the cars I own and look after. To each their own. I love it, you hate it. Fair enough.

[@diegopena4272]

Ya he totally applied it wrong both times when he could have literally followed the actually instructions. Feel like an excuse to purposely set it up for failure but made the time to review again so can't blame him 🤷‍♂️

[@DaveBuildsIt]

I used it on my Frontier. I followed the directions and had no issues with it. I was completely satisfied with the results.

[@jt9264]

I’ve used it three times and watched the proper way to apply it in between and still it won’t come off right. I also use it on black cars so anything that’s not coming off is much more noticeable then a grey, silver or white car

[@DaveBuildsIt]

@@jt9264 I gave 303 Graphene Nano and have been using that for the last two years. It is the best stuff that I've come across for the money. It typically lasts for 3-4 months.

I actually applied this to my car today and had no issue removing it. It was a bit more effort than wax, but no big deal.

[@princejohn5974]

Just used it on an exotic car; it shined like a wet mirror. Great product. Used 4-5 dots instead of 1. Turned out fantastic! if its safe to be used on a 500k car ; its safe to use on any vehicle. Cheers!

This product works as intended. Who ever told you to wet the application pad couldn't be more incorrect. I was very surprised you ran with that as a valid comment. Love most of your content but your assessment of Hydro Slick is going to confuse others more than it confused you.

[@alexcane7744]

Your supposed to wet the pad, auto finesse autoglym will tell you to wet it, it's to have a soft fiber to help spread the product

[@ezekielzapata78644]

I’ve done some paint correction recently and after, I went straight to coating the body with hyrdroslick. It was super hard to buff out and didn’t last long at all. I then realized I didn’t prep the surface after the paint correction (stripping the oils/waxes & residues left behind by compounds and polishes) I did a paint correction again, prepped the surfaces removing the residues to allow hydroslick to bond to the clear coat properly & it buffed out super easy this time around. I also am allowing it to cure properly and am currently awaiting to see the longevity of it this time.. hopefully it bonds properly and lasts much longer like it says

[@rachelhoyle5728]

Hello, how long did the HydroSlick last you?

[@MrNE2013]

I’ve used it plenty of times with customer cars and I think it works great and I always put 3 dots on the pad

[@RawrMerk]

Directions-"we recommend allowing 1-2 minutes before removing" Detail dude- 30 sec later "alright now I'm going to begin buffing" This has to be a joke, the way you applied the product reminded me of the first time I put wax on my first car. Slow no movement, you have to spread the product and work it in. Not glide across the surface in streaks. I used this product last month and people though I painted my car. It's an 2001 with black paint. 10/10 product and you use almost none of the bottle for a full car, the bottle should last for years....

[@VividTape]

The reason they say to leave it on for 1-2 minutes is to make sure it lays smooth. The ease of removal doesn't change dumb ass. If you have actually used the product, you would know this. You don't have to spread or work this product in, that literally does nothing for it LMFAO

[@RawrMerk]

@@VividTape Wrong, the wait times is necessary so the product can dry! Allowing the residue left behind to be buffed or wiped off easily. Not waiting leaves you with the un-evaporated solution that allows you to spread the product. Resulting in a "tough buff" situation. I have used the product, in fact I used it before this video popped up on my feed...my paint is 19 years old. No issues like he had, patience and trial would show you/ him the same.

[@XhemiheadX]

Had zero issues with Hydroslick. Applying and buffing. Perhaps a bad bottle he got or maybe was left out in the sun 🤷‍♂️ I love this stuff with great results

[@4sumcrazyshit]

I got a bad bottle of HydroSlick. The consistency was like a hard pudding; does not mix well no matter how much you shake the bottle. It does not even come out of the hole from the lid even if you squeeze the bottle. HydroSlick bottle gone bad! It was very very difficult to remove after it was applied even if I used less.

[@christiandulaney1638]

I JUST used it for the first time about an hour ago. It was nearly impossible to remove. It came out sort of "grainy", and those grains just wouldnt wipe off. I actually stopped after using it on the hood, roof, and front fenders. I googled issues, and this video came up. Im never using it again. After detailing a car for 1.5 hours, I dont want to endure crossfit levels of exertion to protect my truck

[@jakesheridan201]

People who haven’t used great other products don’t seem to understand how difficult this product actually is. It is not that this won’t work but it’s not AS great as others. Great job Luke keep it up.

[@BkBk-gy6vr]

Ok what are these other great products

[@randempedestrian]

Dude, I'm with you. I washed and completely coated my car, then did my trunk with hydroslick exactly per the directions and was unimpressed. I don't mind it being hard to get off, but it didn't leave the smooth glass finish I am used to from a good wax. I just hope I can wax over it now with no ill effects.

[@joshpiquet3938]

I use this stuff every time. It works amazingly. I use it on my glass my paint the whole car I don’t even have to use my windshield wipers when it rains.

[@tylerpegg6024]

Did a full paint correction. 1k grit 2k grit and 3k grit then compound and polish. It took me longer to wipe this off of the hood than any of the steps of the paint correction. I feel like I applied it and then just removed it all with how hard I had to hand buff it

[@drewj50]

I had the same issue, you’re not crazy. I’m thinking it was a bad batch that we had..

[@Dee--Jay]

I feel you on this. I used this on my vehicle and I have to apply force to the car in order to get off

[@CrazyAbe101]

Literally just went through this couple minutes ago. Kinda sucked. Shit would not come off

[@koreywilliams4570]

I love this stuff. Incredibly easy to use. I leave it sit while I do 2 or 3 panels before I buff it off. Comes off really easy and after being rained on and parked under a tree my car still looks great.

I honestly don’t know why you’re having issues. I just used it on my 2018 Durango R/T. I bought my Durango back in Jan. 2022 I am the second owner. I don’t believe it’s ever been given a wax treatment before. It’s absolutely gorgeous now and I didn’t experience any issues with removal of this product and I was putting it on fairly think too. Just a bit of elbow grease. No big deal.

[@jsdandridge]

First.. "damping"? What? Next, the hood you tried it on looked like raw unfinished porous stone. That could be why it is so difficult to remove. And last.. the trunk is the definition of orange peel effect. Try on a smooth paint corrected surface. Follow the instructions. The product is easy to remove.

I put on 2 coats of ceramic coating first, then used hydroslick and used quite a bit and waited almost 2 minutes before removing and it came off no problem.

[@adamsteinhardt6393]

I don’t understand the issue. I applied this to my SUV with no issues at all. In fact, it’s working great for me. 4-5 dots at a time, dab it out on the paint, the. Cross hatch to rub it in. I waited 20s and repeated the crosshatch pattern with light pressure, my thinking was that this would allow it to partially flash and then if better fill in any low spots. Buffed off within 1-1:30. This was in warm humid weather, on a freshly washed but dry car. No paint correction, no decontamination, but it did have an ~2month old application of Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray.

[@PlayafromtheHimalayas]

Just used this on a brand new car. Did the trunk as a test panel and only used two small squirts on a dry microfiber pad. Applied in the cross hatch pattern and gave it a full minute and it left behind a rough, almost gritty, texture. Using several microfiber towels and a lot of elbow grease, I finally got the shit off. It's definitely slicker than the rest of the car but I'm afraid to continue applying.

[@PlayafromtheHimalayas]

Follow up: So I found that using less of the product on a smaller area gives better results. I put small dabs of Hydroslick on the microfiber application, then I go ahead and spread that on the pad with a finger. I noticed this reduces it laying heavy in spots even after dabbing the surface in multiple areas. Otherwise it creates these gelatin like boogers and end up being the rough gritty texture I experienced before. Now I'll give it some time to cure and see how it holds up to the elements.

[@andrikketeri1107]

When I first used this product, it was pretty easy to remove. The last three vehicles I’ve applied this on have been a different story. I think it may have to do with humidity. Every time I’ve used this product, I’ve applied it and buffed it with microfiber cloths. I’ve followed the directions as well. I understand your angst.

[@rouschautodetail6873]

Once again, I'm surprised of your results. I did not go super thin on my applicator pad, I actually put more product on but made sure I leveled it and spread it evenly. I did not have any trouble removing it at all. Try removing Mckees 37 ceramic coating, that is about 10 times more difficult, or Gold Label ceramic wheel coating, even tougher.

[@AntDogg82]

Agreed, I actually used a good amount like chemical guys demonstrate in their videos. I mean your going to have some resistance when removing this type of coating if you want any kind of protection I would imagine.

You don't have to use a damp applicator, i applied this product and it whiped off easy, with a thin and thicker coat. A damp applicator and short cure time results in streaks and it will be hard to buff off to a clear finish. If there is contamination on the paint it will also be harder to buff off.

[@TheFamilyAdmin]

I think it works great, it does leave the paint ultra slick to the touch. (seriously, best I have ever seen without true ceramic coating) It also really keeps the dust off my truck. I get great results with it. Its not a ceramic coating, DUH. The shine and gloss is much better than Maguire's. I think Maguire's leaves my paint dull and hazy. (and yes, I am applying it as directed) Apex detail did a good video on how long hydro slick lasts. And in his video you can clearly see the improvement in the gloss & shine. It does take a bit of elbow grease to remove, but no more than the old school paste wax. (no pain no gain) I have no issues seeing where to take it off. I think your videos have become very subjective, and that's is why I unsubed a while ago. You did the same thing with Maguire's when it first came out. You hated it, and thought it was junk, until they held your hand to actually apply it correctly. I get it, you are a detailer and want to do things as fast as possible, but that's does not usually produce the best results. But alas, you don't seem to read the comments anymore, so I have basically wasted my time, because you clearly don't care about your subscribers anyone.

[@VividTape]

Don't listen to people like this. They don't understand the products they are using. This product will actually ATTRACT dust and dirt, like silicone should. It doesn't last, it's hard to fully remove, and it is terrible for your microfiber towels. It's not ultra slick to the touch, it's the same as a common wax (which is easy to remove you inexperienced dumb ass). It repels water like a common wax. It even shines like a common wax. If you don't have a single negative thing to say about a product, you are hiding the truth because no products are perfect.

[@TheFamilyAdmin]

What the fuck is "common wax"? Sounds like you are the dumbass. I never said it was perfect, I said it works. My main complaint was that the KZbinr wasn't responding to comments from his viewers anymore.

[@stephencannon3140]

Try it with a spray ceramic coating…. small amount, just enough to keep the applicator pad moving and also keep lubrication for the microfiber towel during removal. I realize this was a test and not on a live vehicle paint but use of NON Microfiber towels for any automotive paint work, clay, polish, SS remover, compounds is strongly discouraged. I have left many of commercial car washes due to not having clean Microfiber towels to dry.

[@reggiep3369]

Bro you might wanna change your channel name to "Wilson Sorta Auto Detailing". Either you got a boot leg bottle or you editing the hell out of your video and following your own directions.

I can't attest to the durability of this product yet, but I followed the directions exactly how it's stated on the bottle. This stuff applied very easily, waited the stated time and it buffed out like butter. Truck is a magnetic gray so it was easy to see if product was still left on the paint.

Now he has to dampen the applicator pad etc etc. It shouldn't be this complicated of an application process when the product it's trying to simulate (ceramic coating) seems much simpler. I went back to using bead maker and collinite, where the application process was way more forgiving and performed way better.

Hydroslick is their attempt of making a wax that acts like a ceramic so its a weird product to begin with

Exactly! I have an issue with getting the windshield clean and when the sun is lower in the horizon, the windshield looks like has been sandblasted.

@@TheCrashley1772 And i have some hairline scratches that can only be seen when the lighting is right but they bother me and i want to remove them and have all of my windows looking as transparent as possible.

@@BruceWayne-jg3hv just polish it and put a sealeant or a coating on them

Spider Man check out apex detail’s you tube channel for better detailing videos including a few windshield polishing and coating videos. He restores them and explains the unique issues for glass

This product is not hard whatsoever to take off, i have a 2019 black challenger and i use this product and love it. Follow directions

[@adidas1984x]

Let’s be honest he doesn’t like the product . Still. I use it and it works very well

[@ovofields]

[@Seb726Laviolette]

Yes defenitly need to decontaminate and polish if not when you try it on the most fkd up hood ive ever seen of course you cant wipe it off its grabbing on to all those defects you can think of.. that hood been through afghanistan war and back im pretty sure lolll

[@jte3470]

FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS ON THE BOTTLE!!!! I've used this product and it works when you follow the directions. I refuse to subscribe to your channel after seeing both of the reviews of this product.

[@modernmusclecar1904]

Stop.. just stop...like ok. First you use to much...then you try to be funny by using to little. It states 1 to 2 min before removal. You do it 30 seconds later. Its not even dry yet. Then you complain that it takes so much effort to remove. Theres more meat on a hockey stick then those arms of yours so you struggle. Nobody should take you very serious.🤙

[@sunilraj7692]

Good video. Thanks for trying again! Yeah will give it a miss.

[@marcuscassius312]

No, you didn’t. It’s just simply shit. Lol

[@eyeh8u1]

Hard to take off? Good lord what the hell is wrong with people. I slathered that shit all over my car using probably about 3x the amount mentioned in the videos and then let it sit for 30 mins. It took more effort to peel the plastic off under the cap than it did to wipe and buff it clean.

He talks like McFly

[@gerardogalindo8943]

I use it because of it's cool blue color that matches my car. Why lie?

[@SyphADL87]

Maybe CG could make a polish for this guys face. Ouch bruh. That's why he don't get no birds on his channel.

[@martinius1234321]

All this and you dont even show the results after? Or actually follow the instructions or use decent stuff to apply and remove. Waste of time!!
