Haven't tried these particular ones but recently have tried chemical guys quick detailer wax and was extremely impressed with it.

Also have noticed that my new truck still looks clean even after days of rain ,when most vehicles would have residue from road spray.

Interesting comments as you tested. The Chemical Guys product was clearly better in your tests but your comments were consistently downplaying the difference. You also mentioned that it was harder to apply but what I noticed was that it was easier to get good coverage because you could see where you had applied. I've used products from both of these companies and like them both but if I had to choose between these two products, I'd spend the extra $$ and get the Chemical Guys product.

[@staggerlee41]

The end results of your testing confirmed my suspicions at the onset of removal--also confirmed by previous videos. In theory, since CG is harder to remove, it *should* be more durable. I get the appeal of both though, on one hand CG provides a bit more durability and McGuiars is much easier to remove. Kind of depends on how much time you have to detail and how often you want to be detailing your vehicle. I'd still probably lean towards the CG as a topper over some sort of Carnauba Wax.

@@Carlos.Rivera They have a "Hybrid Ceramic Spray Wax"..... Everyone is doing it. And truth be told, they are all marketed as "ceramic" even though the majority of them as silica-dioxide coatings aka SiO2 - even the established CQuartz products are SiO2. They are used interchangeably in the industry because its simply easier to describe and market than "Silica-dioxide". Most products worth their weigh are going to have the SiO2 marking on the label somewhere. NONE of these spray coatings are going to last more than a few washes because they do not actually bond to the clearcoat of the car like an actual coating does

CG is overpriced no matter what. 10$ for a 12-14 ounce bottle of spray detailer? No thanks. I’m not a fan of their products because of their marketing. Just because it’s a well known brand, should not justify a higher price.

[@urface12343]

rotor13 Seal N Shine is a polymer hybrid sealant and is not Si02 and will last 6 months up to a year depending on how many layers are applied.

Hey Jimbo, not related to this video but a huge thanks for turning me onto TW seal & shine. Used it on my Suzuki Equator & my wife’s Kia Sorento. One black & one white. And just WOW! Took 30 min total for both and the slickness is amazing. Here in Chicago this time of year the last thing you wanna do is be outside long. Been over a month for the truck and this AM the snow literally just fell right off.

[@edo-j1784]

Yeah, I live in the NorthEast and get the snow too...I like the Seal N Shine and The Ceramic Coating spray. The Ceramic Spray seems to give higher gloss and covers slight swirl scratches along with giving weather protection...Seal N Shine not as much gloss as the ceramic, but it lasts long for a spray wax/polish. Both are equally good in MY opinion. I am going to stay away from these two products Jimbo just gave the torture test to. Not enough protection.

That’s rad. It’s also a chicago based company.

[@seashackf1]

[@brandonjohnson3566]

I'm seeing alot of comments bashing CG due to high prices compared to brands you see at auto stores. CG is actually way cheaper than most on a lot of their products. Reason being they sell full concentrates like a 64oz bottle of APC for $20 when delitued 20:1 makes close to 100 12oz APC spray bottles. That's insane! That's $0.20 each bottle. Again some of their items are expensive but the savings you get from other items like APC, Window Cleaner, Carpet Cleaner, tire cleaner and shine, and also soap for foam cannon which I have a gallon of Mr. Pink and I wash multiple cars every weekend and still havent put a decent size dent in the bottle and it's been 7 months now, makes buying those more expensive items seem way less expensive or atleast doesnt feel like its denting your pockets compared to buying only 1 bottle of meguiars and it's already premixed for $12. Just throwing my hat into the ring :)

[@BramVanhautte]

What is APC?

Glad I looked this up. I almost bought the McGuires today over chemical guys... but the end result is so close I think I’ll stick with the cheaper option at the end of the day. Going to buy the McGuires now 👍

[@qiydaar22]

Greg Calik ima Meguiars man myself! They don’t miss

[@vandersgarage4682]

The end result really wasn't that close. The Chemical Guys was still sheeting water pretty well at the end. The Meguiars wasn't even close. He also didn't prepare the surface properly for the Chemical guys, which means he probably didn't the Meguiars either. Chemical Guys says right on their website to wash and clay bar. I know damn well he didn't clay bar first. Can't do an accurate review of a product if you're not following their basic recommendations. Wash that panel, clay bar it, then polish it to remove swirls and small imperfections THEN apply the Chemical Guys and Meguiars and see which does better.

@@vandersgarage4682 you dont *need* to polish or compound depending on how feel of a clay job you did. If your paint has any imperfections (12+ year old car) definitely do all of CG's steps.

Problem with chemical guys is they try to push out so many products out, they do not have the sufficient R&D in these products (except maybe a few of their car washes). Just because it smells good doesnt mean it's a quality product. Dont let those senses fool you. That said, i could not care less for meguiars either.

For wheel cleaning, you can Optimum power clean but make sure to dilute it and not let it dry.

Lets put this in real life perspective. If you do a strip wash with dawn or whatever you may choose, clay bar the car then buff the car with some compound or polish and apply the meguiars its going to last quite a bit. Not to mention youll only have to do this process maybe four times a year at the most. After the first time youll be able to prolong the product by using a ceramic wash and a ceramic quick detail

I do like both but for exterior,I have been partial to CH for. Few years. Hydra Slick/Speed are excellent for me. I use two coats of H-Slick for the initial coating. H-Speed for touch up. I love the Gel based formula of the H-slick…thicker than liquid but thinner than paste. Note: I know this was a test pane but for everyday use application of ceramic coatings and pretty much most exterior polishes, wax, sealants etc….. the circular method is NOT recommended. Especially using paint correction methods….o would think that the circular rubbing method would defeat the purpose of paint correction….especially swirls and scratches.

Do you feel that spray wax offers less protection against road rash from highway travel than a liquid or paste wax?

As for the tests yeah you aren't putting that harsh of chemicals on your vehicle but doesnt this show you how well it will hold up just at an accelerated pace? When you take your car to a car wash or wash it yourself aren't you subjecting it to detergents of some kind? Or simply driving behind another car eating their road grime and any chemicals the road has to offer.

So you want someone to do a video where they wash and wax a car, not have any kind of control in the experiment ( because that's basically what this is, an experiment). Than you want that person to drive the car and wash it regularly over the course of a few weeks or months. And somehow keep it so that there is no change to the environment of said vehicle? At the heart of it this is a scientific experiment. He is going about it in a professional way. To the best of his knowledge he is controlling said experiment/test in a way that doesnt allow change in the process and he accelerates the process by using chemicals that may or may not be equal to chemicals we may encounter on the road and or at car washes. I'd say he is doing a fine job. If you can do something better maybe you should try it out and show everyone instead of complaining and saying he is doing a fine job. I'm willing to bet most people who are complaining also don't agree with politicians or the way something in the world is run. But that same person wont actually try to do something about it.

[@DeusKDuo]

I am just guessing based on how some 100% synthetic sealants work. I am thinking the carnauba is coming off but the ceramics are staying behind which is why it still sheets nicely but does not bead. Personally i think sheeting is better as it makes it quicker and easier to dry preventing waterspots. Which is why i loved NXT even though people were wrongly assuming it didnt last because of the lack of beading but because everyone likes beading water everyone is pushing these hybrids.

What a waste of money $40 for Chemical Guys lol. $15 for a bottle of Rejex and its durable as hell and sheets water really good. Easy on easy off and cheap.

[@mujjuman]

after torture tests of all these products, i want to know which products jimbo recommends!!!

[@hitokiri92]

Turtle Wax Ice Seal & Shine

[@ForwardEngineering]

Outside of these two what would you actually deem worthy of lasting for a while after application?

[@g1an_nis]

which is the best car wax? how much months does it lasts?? previously used meguiars ultimate paste wax... is it hybrid liquid ceramic wax better??

[@wellwh0]

Only thing I use from Chemical guys is their hex logic pads, and that is only because they are cheaper than Meguiars ones, at least in my country. Other stuff from Chemicals is product overlapping, overpriced mess; not worth money or pre purchase research. Also would go rather for spray ceramic than liquid one. It's is much faster and easier to use.

[@downundergarage6968]

Thier hex pads are great and well priced here in Australia. My fav pads by far.

[@wellwh0]

Down Under Garage In Europe too, quantum ones are great, though here in Europe there are many brands that have same type of pads now with hole in center. Like Honeycomb Combinatiin, that aren’t know that well but are as good and cheaper than chemicals ones.

[@hawkie333]

Awesome video, would love to see the difference between the high dollar tiny bottle brands....

[@aaronsmith7143]

first off, those tiny bottle brands are actual ceramic coatings 9/10 times. nothing about either of the products in this vid is ceramic.

[@mopar392ta3]

Lol I love the quik detailing spray. I actually use the quik detailer spray for my car and quik wax on my wheels. Seems to work but I do my car every 1-2 months depending on how much it rains

[@raksh9]

Megs Ultimate Quik Wax is awesome. I usually use Ultimate Liquid as the base and Ultimate Quik spray as the top layer, and everything has a great shine, and water beads and sheets well. It does wear off pretty fast, around two or three heavy rainfalls before it stops beading on the doors.

[@Sphoxros]

I noticed with the CG, least on my car that after roughly 3-4 washes it pretty much disappears partially, and this is with PH balanced shampoo. So that's basically 1 months time, as I try to wash my car once a week. Not too happy with the CG ceramic atm, will be trying some from Griot's here shortly, hopefully with better durability.

[@somthingsquishy]

I did a test comparison with 3d POXY (for sheeting), Gyeon WetCoat & Turtle wax seal & shine. Gyeon wetcoat got first in water beading and sheeting, then seal & shine and POXY last . Poxy is WAY Glossier than both though. Gyeon wetcoat is my go to for spray and rinse sealant.

[@R00321]

Which one is best, ceramic coating (Pearl Nano, Gtechniq, ceramic Pro), glass coating (Modesta) or a front paint protective film (XPEL)?

[@williamking24]

Jimbo What air blower you using Thanks for your videos

[@autodetailingpodcast]

Shelandy moto dryer

[@petethompson1282]

A lot of sealants make plastics look good - how does this compare to say armorall shield sealant which brings plastics back to black? ITs my winter go-to.

[@dustinsalisbury4383]

I use the chemical guys quick spray detailed wax and it gives a great shine and usually makes washing my car the next time easier. But I’ve used others and they had similar effects

[@scotty2221]

Just bought a new GoldWing motorcycle. It's red and I'd like to protect it. What's best way to do it? Just wax or should I wax then ceramic coat it or what? Maybe you could suggest a good brand to go with? I'm patient and can do it myself just wanna know who I should go with like a good kit out there, brand, etc...

[@MrLangDog]

CG a bit tougher but twice the value? Not for me. I'm, not a pro so I like the safety of the VSS but I use the Turtle was spray ceramic afterwards

[@jdmkidk24]

Carpro lite vs chemical guys hybrid wax, Carpro lite is more in a kit but has a 150ml bottle and you can find the kit for about $55 usd

Thanks for the vid. I think I will just stick to the blue bottle and/or bead maker.

[@choot2851]

One thing to note is if you have paint chips or scratches and use these products it will seal the clear coat and those paint chips or scratches will never be able to be fixed people need to clarify more

[@daveh3302]

The real winner of the torture test is the Eagle One Black & Plasti-Coat Wheel Cleaner. I’ll bet that you’ve helped sell more of that than any of the ceramic wax products. 😀

[@russnordstrom4388]

Chemical guys is better overall. You get what you pay for. To be fair, you would spray all of these harsh chemicals BEFORE doing these ceramics. They look the same almost when you applied them. So with that being said the Meguiars is good for people on a budget. Chemical Guys if you want the best consumer products.

[@SilverDogAdventures]

The CG product is rated to high. The MSRP is 57 I Don't think so! The 3m (Meguiars) is better priced & is correctly Rated. My winner is 3m (Again Meguiars)

[@three90blue77]

Question: In this day and age, where do liquid waxes fall in the detailing world? It seems spray sealants outlast and are easier to apply. Are we reaching a point where waxes won’t be used anymore?

[@autodetailingpodcast]

I’m asking myself the same question. The only thing I can think of is there maybe still some people that like applying wax the old school way, but it still doesn’t make sense to me.

[@three90blue77]

That’s what I was thinking as well. And not so much they like it, it’s just what they’ve always known. It seems to have come down to ceramic coatings or spray sealants. As a part time detailer, it’s really changed the way I look at the way I do things.

[@daves.3278]

@@autodetailingpodcast yeah.. it's a Drag to apply a paste wax on a car. Takes forever. Liquid on a DA is quicker but still takes a good while. Spray sealants have saved me so much time its ridiculous. I can detail 2 cars now before with paste waxes I could only do 1 in 2 hours

[@wellwh0]

David Saucedo I have two tins of wax Fusso and Megs Ultimate Paste. After Megs Hybrid Ceramic spray wax I don’t use them any more. Ultimate paste provide little more gloss on unpolished car. In every other way spray is way better and much much fatser to apply. So only makes sense to me these days is high durable ceramic that last 2-3 years or two times a year spray ceramic wax Alternative is maybe cleaner wax with DA to spray wax if car is neglected

[@kurtavery1703]

i thought ceramic waxes can last up to 6 months? I’d stay with seal and shine then. thanks jimbo great video!

[@urface12343]

Seal N Shine is the best bang for your buck when it comes to paint protectant. At least when labor costs are moot. If you know how to apply a real ceramic then there’s your answer, otherwise, Seal N Shine.

[@jatiyanon]

go for real ceramic

[@urface12343]

~YoYO~ people like myself who have hard times getting storage for our vehicles to allow the ceramic coating to properly cure are without that option.

[@jorgeluis7918]

Hey bro do you think is better to use spray wax?..that's what I use all the time..idk but I'm afraid of using those products because they're gonna add an extra layer then it's gonna get hard to clean and remove it.

[@autodetailingpodcast]

Jorge Luis I prefer a spray and they’ve proven to be much better then both of these

Error the wax is put 2 to 3 lines on the applicator and applied from side to side up and down, to cover more the area.

[@timothygonzalez6679]

Id like to see the winner of this test (chemical guys) vs a comparable standard paste wax vs a spray wax 👍🏽

[@nathand656]

What is your recommendation for a spray and wipe product?

[@alejandromalagon6462]

How will this traslate to real life time and exposure after application? Is not like "regular" people use those iron remover and stuff...just wash and wash after wash..

[@mrhonda1]

It would be good to see the hydro slick compared the new Pro Hybrid Ceramic Sealant when it comes out. It's supposed to be a step up from the ceramic wax and still cost 10 bucks less than the chemical guys.

[@krflyguy2117]

I agree with your comment about a spray and wipe application. I just put a second coat of the Turtle Wax Ceramic Spray on my 2020 Explorer ST and am amazed with the shine and water beading qualities of a spray on product. I ordered it based on your recommendation and have other friends using it now. I have some Chemical Guys in my arsenal but believe that all their products are way overpriced. Guess I will have to toss out my Meguiars Express Wax now! Thank you for the great videos....Merry Christmas

[@chaniem.5422]

What's the point in ceramic wax anyways when they both just work like regular wax and dies just as fast too, I'll either get a real ceramic coating or just a good waxing instead
