What is your experience with "spray on rinse off" protection?

[@mikeyp2447]

Apex Detail not a fan... I will give this a go however.

[@amazed6161]

i started using this about 2 weeks ago...Gloss is nice dont know how long it will last since i apply anything after 3rd or 4th wash..for retail product this is really good..i dont think i will ever use this product as spray and rinse since most of the product will go to waste..i like the initial application method..

[@TheC5corvette]

Currently only use CarPro Hydro02 Lite, but i wonder how this compares to it..

[@trapcracker]

Not too concerned with gloss, protection, or durability but more concerned with making the surface (wheels for me) easier to dry.

[@sergiobarraza1806]

Gyeon WetCoat all the way... Rest are just copies.

[@rwayne73]

Great video! The format, narration, editing was perfect! Thanks for posting!

[@Denise-ch4it]

Seems like a great product. I liked how you used it by spraying a dab or 2 on the pad instead of spraying the entire vehicle. Can't wait to try.

[@constantdarkfog49]

Very good review Brian, Thank you. I picked up this Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic Wax. I followed your directions to establish a nice even Base Coat. Now what I do for additional maintenance coats, I diluted the full strength amount 50 : 50 W/ Distilled Water. This seems to work really nice. I just spray on the dilution, then with the first clean microfiber I massage it on, then just lightly buff it out. It comes out really smooth. For the life of me, I just will not use it as a spray on rinse off product. I really enjoyed your review, it helped me pick how I would work with this new product. Thumbs up on a really cool product.

[@MEG63115]

I’ve watched a few videos on this wax. Your method really saves product. Thanks for another great video!

I just noticed that!👍🙂

[@tkrueger007]

Baffled by the down votes. Great job as usual Brian. I've spent the last year accumulating a ton of knowledge on detailing from a variety of sources and you offer the best combination of deep knowledge and concise presentation. Thank you.

[@HerbOldenburg]

Glad to see this one by Apex - yes I did use the bottle up quickly by using the "spraying" method. I will get another and try your applicator method - thx for sharing.

[@Royalties500]

I bought this being really skeptical "ceramic" yeah right... But I have to say it blows all the previous waxes away I've used. Stunned how it repels dirt and seriously even brake dust on wheels. I was actually blown away. Car has stayed cleaner and it's made washing easier (less wheel scrubbing stubborn brake dust)

[@kevinmcdermott3668]

People put this stuff down but forget what there paying for a bottle , Other stuff can cost 4 or 5 times the price , I believe if you put it on as it should be used & reply once a week after washing your vehicle this would make it easier each time you wash you vehicle .

[@fireball7671]

I love this stuff so much! I’ve always trusted Maguire’s products, but I wasn’t sold on this idea. When you follow the instructions exactly. (foundation coat is very important) I was not disappointed

[@northerniltree]

My neighbor ran full speed naked around my garage when I was applying this, scaring the crap out of me. You claimed there would be NO STREAKING when I used this stuff!

Just discovered Turtle wax Jet Black detail spray. It's given my Tuxedo Black paint the most pop of anything I've ever used (Griots, Meguiars, Rupes). I use it as a drying aid after every wash now and just can't stop smiling every time I look at my car!

[@tobyhigginbotham2564]

Another great review Brian. I love the way you try different scenarios and test ,and I can’t wait for a comparison against Gyeon wet coat.

Especially within the last few years!

[@scotts7144]

vrodx bad grammar.

[@9teen60]

Great video! Also, really good idea about putting a small amount on a damp application pad! I have found that spraying it on as recommended is too much. So much so that all that happens is your microfiber towel get soaked with product which is wasteful for us the consumer, more profitable for the manufacturer 🤔😑😒! Again, great job! I am definitely buying this product but applying it as you did. Keep up the “clean” work, nice shop/garage BTW!!!

[@livinglife7042]

I’m glad you showed me this my bottle came in two days ago and of course it has not stopped raining 🌧 😫

[@apexdetail85]

It is pouring here as well.☹

[@briand.1694]

I wasn't too crazy about the idea of just spraying it of and rinsing it off. I used it in a similar manner to using a 'quick-detailer' with excellent results. I washed my car and then dried it. I dampened a MF cloth with water and then sprayed a small amount of 'MHCW' to the dampened cloth and applied it to the vehicle, turning the cloth and adding more 'MHCW' for each body panel. When done, I took a new MF cloth and buffed the entire vehicle to remove any remaining residue. After seeing the finished product, I can honestly say that I believe I have found my new way of protecting the finish of my vehicle. Now I will have to wait and see if my process stands the test of time.

[@Jeppedy]

This product doesn't look to be much harder to apply than Meg's Xpress Wax, but looks to be better protection.

[@RPJs-Cuisine]

It’s a great product! What I do is 1 panel at a time. I let it BOND. But I then go behind after bonding with a damp with water microfiber. I have tortured panel after that and it holds up quite well!

[@TheRopeAddict]

This is absolutely the best way to apply this product

[@hakinen4000]

been using mckees 37 hydro blue for 2 years and it has been awesome. Great durability

[@steelerpat33]

Everything that Meguiars has is the top-of-the-line great stuff

[@apexdetail85]

I cant argue with that.🙂

[@user-ej5pn7xx2p]

Great video. I’d like to add that I’ve found that if u put it on dry paint with a damp applicator and LET IT DRY for 5 min ,Then level it off with a lightly dampen microfibre. Product has time to dry and absorb into the paint and the effects last longer especially if you let it cure after you’ve finished 24 hours. Water and shine for months.

[@dustin3700]

I've used this dry but just for convenience and speed after a contact wash and rinse I spray in on rub it in and rinse before it dries and it does a great job and it's fast and easy.

[@whitepearl271]

Great review video as usual.

[@apexdetail85]

Thanks!! Much appreciated!!

[@alexf6021]

Great video! So what about the subsequent applications after the foundation layer? Do you recommend to do it always like you show in this video?

[@erikng7809]

Thanks for sharing, hopefully will help keep the deep black paint look much longer than usual wax

[@apexdetail85]

It will...I will cover how it works in the next video.

[@edruiz6364]

I have been looking for this product for quite a long time now and finally found it at Walmart. I have been using TW Ice Spray wax and detailer with great effect and will continue to use it but I will give this a try. I am waiting as I also bought a Harbor Freight DA polisher, however, the weather in Central Florida is finicky and I can't use my garage for the detailing that I want to give the car before I use the product. When I can I will use your method to apply it. Great video by the way.

[@daviddemafate6429]

Nice method. Like for Meguiar's Ultimate Fast Finish. I will try this product when if my retailer sells it. Thanks for this nice video.

[@apexdetail85]

To be honest...I would stick to FF

[@twgt158]

Really good video. Thank you.

[@thevalleymobiledetailingmo5047]

I used it for the first time today even if it dosnt do the job its a awesome drying ad

[@klasseact6663]

Brian, after the initial application like you showed us, what do you think of this. While the car is wet, spray some of the product on a panel, wipe in wet AND THEN rinse off?

[@hobbsautospa]

Thank you for making this video! Was very skeptical about the directions, I knew there would be a more conservative way to apply.

[@apexdetail85]

You sure go through a ton of product using as directed...but hey...it is their product.

[@0thers1d3]

Right!? I wish I would have saw this video first... just used an entire bottle on my Flex. Oh well, now I'm dont with the first and second coat, so my next bottle will last a while.

[@stephencarbonaro5462]

Great review! This will be a popular product, I'm sure. Being that it will be available just about everywhere.

[@apexdetail85]

I am sure it will be easy to get your hands on it once the hype dies down a bit.

[@Ceejay-pg3ku]

To prolong the durability of this product even more, would it be possible to wax your car (after wash and polish etc etc) and apply this stuff or even put a couple of layers of wax on after application...... I'm thinking bonding issues ???

[@Neur0bit]

Great review. I was just thinking about being able to apply it like you did. Dry, with a damp towel/applicator, since I don’t like wasting product. I would apply it that way every time in my case. Thanks Brian.

[@apexdetail85]

It has made the 26 oz container last much much longer!🙂

[@constantdarkfog49]

I've just tried it today & applied it via applicator pad. I'm going to continue applying new coats in the same fashion. I just can't see rinsing product off. Big waste. I'll apply mine in the conventional manner. Good luck

[@ashishpatel350]

How well does this work on glass? Just wondering for all us north east people that have to deal with snow and rain.

[@meiowalot7570]

I like your application method. I just have a couple questions: Should we re-dampen the applicator as we go, I.e. add more water and wring it out? Or use a fresh applicator periodically? Can this technique be used with other spray & rinse products (specifically McKee’s Hydro Blue)? I love the idea of being able to do this initial application in my garage! Where I live we are heading into the cold and sloppy weather.

[@scottpunswick5051]

Would you suggest applying DPC Armor the same way for the 1st application? Appreciate your videos Brian, Thanks much!

[@PetesZ400]

I knew I should have waited to watch how you applied it. On my first application, I literally used more on my Prius than I did on my crew cab pick up. I thought the product felt very slick under my microfiber towel as I dried it and I also really liked the gloss the product gave to my white Prius and pewter colored truck. I also used it on my wife's Hyundai Santa Fe and it looks great. I think I have enough product left to do one actual "spray and rinse" in the future.

[@apexdetail85]

Yeah...This stuff is thick and cream like as well.

[@thomas4776]

I like your video. Can you apply a second coat the same way you applied the first. I like the pad method I am going to try it. Thanks.

[@tonylyons9727]

Doing it this way does it not leave marks or hard to rinse of after putting the bass coat down first?it does make a lot more sense doing it this way

[@stwg32]

Looking forward seeing it head to head with wetcoat. Great video as always Brian.

[@apexdetail85]

I will put it up against Angelwax Enigma as well.

[@GoofysBandit]

What would you do to get maximum shine and depth? Liquid wax over top? Or a glaze?

[@annamarconetto1648]

is it possible to dry the vehicle using a chamois instead of micro fiber on the subsequent applications of spraying wet, rinsing and drying? i personally prefer chamois over micofiber when drying. i would use the microfiber for this initial "dry method" shown in this video

[@jameslloydtiffner8678]

do you need to use a power washer if you wipe it off with a micro fiber towel on each application

[@nonameisthename138]

Your way, is the same way that I would have did it. Great job and video..

[@apexdetail85]

It is the only way to not go through a whole bottle in 2 washes.

[@johnsmith3735]

Does it make it easier to clean the bugs off the front of your car once it's applied? I hate when they etch into the clear coat.

[@scotthoffer4723]

How would this compare to Top Coat F11 and would it stand up to all of the bugs we have in the south? I'm looking for paint protection for my motorcycle.

I would stick with Fast Finish if you are a Megs fan.

[@shawnamison2485]

Meguiars has been putting out some great new products lately, I think I might try this one next. Do you think this could be used as a drying aid (spray on wet car, dry off with microfiber) instead of spray on / rinse off? I use megs quick wax as a drying aid right now, im sure this would give much better longevity, and can be applied everywhere!

[@joshuaopfer6566]

Have you ever tried xpc3 ceramic quick detailer tec582. I just ordered some from my work and I love it so far. Idk how long it will last since I just started using it.

I have to ask a question I wash and wax my car once a week it doesn't really get too grimy I may be driving it two or three times a week and then put it underneath the cover the rest of the week with this wax do I have to wax the car every single weekend that I wash it or can I skip a weekend how does that work

[@johncipolletti6139]

As a former painter, I have found that they are using this nano ceramic in the car paints. After having used a car with this ceramic paint for 2.5 years I found it fabulous. The car NEVER needs waxing and still shines. Just wash the car and it's done. I wonder if this was will improve an old paint job?

[@joem6010]

Would this be safe on matte black vinyl wrap? Any impact on the matte finish? Would like some protection and water beading but don't want to add gloss or an uneven finish.

[@gufiaito69able]

Nice looking product way cheaper than what's available.

[@apexdetail85]

The price point is perfect for what it does for the surface of your car or truck.👍

[@danbasta3677]

Yeah, it's cheap allright. Won't even last a week, I'll bet. This just simply looks to good to be true. Paste wax and elbow greese goes a lot more longer with much longer durable results. This spray on wipe off stuff is for sisseys who are afraid of a little work.

[@edgargomez8662]

As usual very good video Brian, I believe that in my opinion and in my world, I would use it as a quick resource of a wash, that I have very little time to go out and have the car clean and ready, I think the product is focused on facilitate and skip a couple of steps in the maintenance of the car .... very good product and economic, an alternative to take into account

It is very viscous... and has a ton of lubrication.

[@AllenMaestas]

Great video Brian. Really like that you think out of the box and create better ways to utilize and get the most out of products. In your opinion between this new hybrid ceramic wax and their Ultimate fast finish, which is the better product? Using your method they pretty much go on and come off the same way, they both can be applied to everything, but which seems to give more protection and/or gloss? I'm wondering if this Ceramic wax would be good for matte paint, especially on wheels?

[@obliviondio]

Meguiars says that its best to contact dry using this spray with a towel inorder for it to work its best. Just for that fact, id say there is no benefit with this product at all compared to ultimate fast finish. This product cant be used in direct sunlight therefore you're limited with that and you still have to proceed with contact drying using either product. A true spray on rinse off is from Sonax. You can spray it on and rinse off on the base and for maintenance washes. The problem is that its too expensive.

[@apexdetail85]

Fast Finish is the better of the two....hands down.
