[@Bruces-Garage]

Great example why we do these tests and education. Textile sealant matches my experience as well. I’m sticking with GTechniq SmartFabric.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@Bruces-Garage thanks Bruce. I followed all instructions and KCX doesn’t say anything about this only working on specific fabrics or textiles. They are rather vague in their description. I hope this helps others and I hope they can update their language or offer some clarification.

[@Pryoxfps]

@@Bruces-Garage is Gtechniq a smart fabric a good convertible top protectant? Looking for something to make my convertible top bead water off and not sheet as much.

[@ConwayLStevens]

@@Pryoxfps Look at using the Detail co Leather coating. its a highly hydrophobic ceramic coating that could be used on a leather top.

[@Bruces-Garage]

@ Yes, I’ve had good success with this product on fabric convertible tops.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@Pryoxfps I second that. It’s great on convertible roofs.

[@mireffafhassan1245]

Awesome review. Thanks for taking the time to do a detailed review i am also sticking to gtechniq smart fabric and for hpc i guess the dilutimg part is nice but not something that stands apart from other diluteable plastics

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thanks for watching! Yeah the benefit to HPC in my opinion is that it's interior and exterior use. Could be something to set it apart.

[@SoCleenDetailing]

Awesome video Ryan! Thanks foe the info! 🎉

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@SoCleenDetailing thank you!

[@Wes23Sut]

A video where every product isn’t top 5..this was refreshing. Fabric 2.0 from carpro is 🔥

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@Wes23Sut it’s the goat! lol thanks Wes….just wanted to share my experience. Followed all instructions and KCX doesnt make any distinction on what type of fabric to use this on and it’s called Allround so I tested it “allround” these were the results.

[@flowinthrou]

Have you used fabric 1? They say the difference is that it is more user friendly and ecological. So, I guess the performance is the same?

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@ I’m not familiar with that one? Is fabric 1 the brand?

[@flowinthrou]

@@FineDetailingAZ No, I meant the carpro fabric (v.1), how compares to fabric 2.0?

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@flowinthrou Got it! I haven't tried it yet. I can test that vs DIY and Gtechniq.

[@ryanbehrmann3453]

Hpc reminds me of meguires hyper dressing which I personally can’t stand but know a lot of people love

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Yeah similar for sure. this one can be used on interiors so a little more versatile. Thanks for watching.

[@adamstrachn]

Great work bud. Appreciate the effort. I'll stick with Gtechniq for fabric guard. Probably sticking with ADS Tire+ and Nasiol Trim Coat for now as well. Have a good week ahead ✌🏼

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@adamstrachn thanks man. Agree all good alternatives

[@AdamosGarage]

Great Video Ryan! This is why I support and really appreciate you doing videos like this! The Fabric sealant was disappointing to say the least. Hard pass on that one. I’ll checkout the Gtechniq Smart Fabric! 😉👍🏼 The HPC looks like a decent product, but doesn’t blow me away. I might be wrong, but I’d compare it to CarPro Pearl? Lots of other products on the on the market which are similar, so it’ll be interesting to see where this is best utilized! Edit…The disappearing water beads at the end was awesome!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@AdamosGarage thanks Adamo! I tired to give it a second chance and reapply very heavy so wanted to show my full experience. Hopefully KCX can weigh in.

[@alexpope5327]

Great video, thanks for the in depth testing. I don't find a need for either of these products. I really like PSS and TS, they are my go to KCx product for tires and interior dressing. As far as a dilutable product, I have used CarPro Perl for years, it has been my tried and true and I will keep using it... I am a weekend warrior hobbyist so I will probably keep going like I am.. Not a fan of the fabric protector at all. Saved me $40 LOL...

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@alexpope5327 thanks for the support! I agree on the HPC I love their other products. I don’t love when companies make redundant products. If you do need a fabric sealant I can recommend the Gtechniq smart fabric it’s very impressive. I have an interior prep video you can check out to see that one.

[@flowinthrou]

I think even the most hydrofobic sealant will soak eventually. In the highest chance of holding up 100%, then the water (or whatever) will run down to the floor mat or back to the seat. I hope it is just easier to clean

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@flowinthrou for sure it’s not impermeable but I’d hope it would last a few minutes time to stop driving and clean it up. The getechniq offers this

[@wescat2]

I with you Ryan. Not sure where Hpc falls in. Top Star is fine and PSS is super great for trim and tires and hold up well. But like you mentioned down to one product. Though there are other interior products I like better.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@wescat2 yeah for sure I think pros and mobile detailers would benefit the most from HPC. Or someone who does like to switch up gloss levels for tire shine. I do like that it’s water based but hey not every product can be a home run

[@yanniobkirk5744]

Any water based tire dressing can be diluted with water. There are a lot. Meguiar’s Hyper Dressing, Carpro Perl are a couple.

[@FrankoDetails]

great video and the second opinion from a friend to let you know yours wasn’t a fluke, was a great addition now, did you shake the bottle, what was the temperature when you applied it, do you remember what the barometric pressure was. did you unplug it for 30 seconds and plug it back in, sometimes if you take the cartridge out and blow on it that usually helps. great video as always ✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thanks franko lol. I. do miss my nintendo.

[@waterhose4130]

Thinking these products are more about stain protection. The difference in the two will be the denseness of the pile. The floor mat, of course, being denser.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@waterhose4130 fair assessment but my floor mats are a pretty similar weave. Also KCX doesn’t make any distinction on their site or bottle. If that’s the case then this shouldn’t be called allround and specifics should be called out. From KCX: Allround Textile Sealant protects all types of textiles against water, dirt and stains without impairing the look and feel. Textiles of all kinds for interior and exterior use, such as convertible roofs, seat covers, etc.

[@waterhose4130]

@ All these products can protect, are what they can get a hold of. They will never form an impermeable barrier on a textile as a whole, only what’s used to create the textile, Everything between those strands are just plane airspace.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@ agreed but the Gtechniq protected much better as I demonstrated. The weave on the mats isn’t that much different than the trunk in my case. Either way I think they need to clarify what to expect on their site.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

I did apply the gtechniq to my floors in the cabin which are the same exact weave as the trunk and it rejects the water like the mat. I do understand this is just my experience and different fabrics may respond differently.

[@zustroy]

Love seeing that a product sucks and you speak about it, not everything is amazing and great. How would you compare Fabric 2.0 and DIY Interior Ceramic?

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@zustroy some people just want to watch the world burn. I haven’t tried those other two but I have tried Gtechniq smart fabric and it’s incredible. Others have told me good things about Carpro and diy.

[@BXGreen_DrivewayDetails]

Appreciate the video! I’ll stick to DIY detail interior ceramic

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@BXGreen_DrivewayDetails I remember your video it looked great! Thanks for watching Becca!

[@23dothedew]

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@23dothedew I haven’t but I’d also like to throw in Carpro fabric 2.0

[@23dothedew]

@ would be a nice 3 way test!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@23dothedew Indeed!

[@1stfrompuertorico568]

Nice review Even interior ceramic from DIY Detail does better than this one from Koch Chemie

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@1stfrompuertorico568 thanks Humberto. Seems to be the case. Not sure if this product only works on certain types of textiles but hopefully kcx will weigh in

[@Mikeey684]

I'd use the gtechniq and colorlock side by side on a floor matt or area to see the difference in these products. Fabric coatings are expensive carpro, gtechniq, gyeon, 500ml is $60 average. Meguiars hyper dressing is what I think of when comparing to Hpc. Same dilution and both water-based, I use it on engine bays, fender liners, and some interior plastics. Thanks for the review, glad to see hiw they worked or didn't.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@Mikeey684 thanks so much! Hyper dressing! That’s what I couldn’t remember thanks for that. Agreed I think it’s similar though I’m not sure they say to use hyper dressing on interior? One difference with HPC. As for side by side I can do that but I’ve sprayed the Gtechniq on the floor in the cabin which is the same material as my trunk and it’s more hydrophobic. In my outro I had a friend test and send his results and you can see they are similar. KCX makes no distinction on what fabrics to use it on and they just say interior and exterior etc. Bit of a let down

[@timkinley1779]

There is no dressing I want on matts ever. Just clean them. Matter of fact, don't put any dressing on any interior surfaces. That's how you ruin an interior.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@timkinley1779 I think he’s talking about comparing the sealant on the carpet mats. I agree you shouldn’t put a dressing on rubber mats. That creates a slip hazard. I am okay with a matte finish protectant to add a little UV protection on plastics but it has to be matte and non greasy.

[@Mikeey684]

@@timkinley1779 I was talking about carpet matts. The only dressing I've put on rubber matts was Koch chemie gummifix, specifically designed for that. Water based protectants will not damage interiors just alter the look. I do like the 1:4 natural look on lower parts like door sills and plastics.

[@josealdavaz1361]

Curious what KC response will be.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@josealdavaz1361 same! I Assume they will say it works better on tighter weave fabrics but we’ll see. I don’t see a ton of engagement from them on KZbin so we’ll see.

[@josealdavaz1361]

@ gotcha, just about every product I’ve tried from then has been good. So hopefully they give some feedback back. Thanks for vid. It’s nice to see this stuff before buying the product

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Agreed, I've had awesome success with KCX. I welcome their feedback.

[@RayNLA]

Koch Chemie has become the new Chemical Guys!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@RayNLA yikes….they do have a lot of redundant products. Hope they focus on quality not quantity of products.

[@RayNLA]

@ KC seems to have lost their way in a relatively short period of time!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@RayNLA Any other missed products in your opinion?

[@RayNLA]

@@FineDetailingAZ Are you referring to different brands?

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@RayNLA was curious if you think they lost their way because of other products that KCX missed on.

[@joevanseeters2873]

I wonder if Koch Chemie used some of the same components of motorplast in their formula? It's interesting that it smells fresh like Fresh Up which is nice, but for me, I'll stick with Gtechniq Smart Fabric. It's caustic yes, but it works extremely well. I also use CarPro Fabric Protector and it works similar to Gtechniq Smart Fabric. I watched another review over at Bruce's Garage regarding the HPC (he did a really nice in depth review of HPC and concluded basically the same thing as you about the product). I do like water based dressings, although I would use it mostly as a tire dressing probably, but not on the interior, but that's just me. I do see value in the HPC if a detailing professional was using it as a diluted product on various tasks from tires to exterior plastics, and at one to four, on the interiors. I did like that finish at 1/4. That looked great. I see a value in this product for sure. I am going to give both of these a try just to see what results I get on my own vehicles. Thanks for posting.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@joevanseeters2873 of course thanks for watching I think we’re aligned on our thoughts. They have their benefits for sure. I just don’t love a ton of redundant products though. Smart fabric is excellent but someone else just told be car pro works well too. I may have to check that out. Gtechniq is flurocarbon free which is nice

[@chrisd3648]

Got to wonder how a product like that textile sealant even makes it to market? Did KC test that at all…

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@chrisd3648 yeah… I’m hoping they weigh in because in their video it looks hydrophobic. I have a feeling they will say it only works on like tight weave fabrics like new car seats. If that’s the case then change the name from allround and tell people that in the instructions

[@NeilDetails]

I used the Gtechniq fabric protector. The smelled horrible for days and then it didn’t even seem like it protected the fabric. Needless to say the wife was less then thrilled.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@NeilDetails interesting! I made a video on it and you can see how it well it worked. Maybe there are differences in batches. I agree on the smell though you need good ventilation. For me the smell just lasts the day.

[@NeilDetails]

@ definitely leave all the doors open for a couple hours

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@ totally agree

[@23dothedew]

We need an explanation from KCX ASAP

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@23dothedew thanks for watching I do hope they chime in. My suspicion is this is meant to work on tight weave fabrics like performance material seats in modern cars. They posted a video on their channel and you can see the seats they tried it on. If that’s the case they should update the label and website because it doesn’t offer any guidance on what types of fabrics. Just says interior and exterior like seats, convertible roofs etc.

[@23dothedew]

@ I agree. If they are going to be for specific fabrics they need to state this. This product is too expensive for people to be wasting their money because the manufacture isn’t clear on the proper use.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@ agreed.

[@ChingyBlingy]

Do the instructions on the sealant call for using a mf applicator? Maybe it mopped up too much? I have the Gtechnic on hand but I expected better from KCX tbh. Thanks for the review bro

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@ChingyBlingy thanks for watching they do say to use a mf applicator and the one I used is the rag co one with a plastic barrier in it. Instructions below: apply Allround Textile Sealant evenly to the surface with a microfiber sponge to create a thin and even wet film. 4. work the product thoroughly into the fibers with a suitable sponge in a crosswise motion and then allow to dry completely

[@ChingyBlingy]

@ wow that’s definitely a low performing product. I was low key excited when you talked about the smell. Only downside to me on the Gtechnic is the strong smell.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@ yeah it was a bit disappointing and they don’t say it should only be used for specific fabric types either. I was pumped for this as well. Gtech smart fabric is amazing and agree smell is rough but at least it’s also fluorocarbon free too.

[@goindetailing]

Thanks for the review on these new KCx products Ryan…it was extremely helpful. Your results with the textile sealant definitely look to be disappointing if hydrophobics are any indication of performance. I had a similar experience with Carpro Fabric 2.0. Hopefully KCx does chime in especially since they highlighted the hydrophobics in their video. Maybe it still helps stain prevention or makes stains easier to clean even without the hydrophobics? My experience with fabric sealants is that they will eventually allow liquid to soak in if enough is poured on but surprising how quickly it happened in your demo. For HPC, can definitely see the benefit of being able to have one product for both exterior and interior and it did look nice at 1:4 on the interior. However, I don’t see it replacing PSS and Top Star for me either. Plus, even though I think most people consider Top Star just an interior dressing, KCx does say it does at least some cleaning which you wouldn’t get with HPC. Your new cabinets look so good!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@goindetailing thanks Patrick totally agree. They will soak in eventually but not in seconds. Perhaps it does help with staining who knows. I’m super excited for my cabinets thanks for noticing.
