Technician's Choice TEC 582 Ceramic Detail Spray VS Simoniz Ceramic Wax!!

[@apexdetail85]

Technician's Choice gives the panel a gloss boost amongst the highest on the channel.

[@KrispyKarl7]

would you say polish angel high gloss is the best of the best when it comes to gloss?

[@barrybij8079]

Brian, Durability is great but I wash my car every weekend and re-apply x, y or Z product... Most important to me is 1. Gloss 2. ease of use 3. cost 4. durability 5. readily available on Amazon or local retailers.great vids ..thankyou for your hard work

[@richardvacanti4265]

Hi Brian . Used p&s Break Buster for the first time . It really dose what it is advertised to. Finally a break cleaner that dose what it says it will. And for the most part that is getting more rare and rare with all detailing products.Got tire extremely clean on first try.Same for cleaning the rims. This stuff is great dose what it says.

[@eddraper]

Thanks for all you do Brian. I think this is the best detailing channel on KZbin. Solid, no BS, to the point, and tasteful. You're doing it right sir.

[@ShoresMobileWashandDetail]

I have been detailing for a year and technicians choice is on of my favorite detailing products, it is AMAZING and Brian said the price is right!

[@sportyj2420]

I've been using this product for my detailing business for 2 years now,never had a complaint.Great price,great longevity

[@ryanbrown918]

Two brands and products that deserve way more respect and attention in this world of "designer" detail brands that seem to focus on colorful labels and smells to draw you in. Both of these focus on product performance, or what really matters IMO. Have been using Simmoniz products for quite some time, but Technicians Choice has been a new addition for me as a new drying aid in the last few months. Extremely happy with TEC582, and even happier to see Brian excited about it as well :) Simmoniz was also doing extremely well, and almost had the win until the true sealant killer made an entrance!

[@THutch556]

Good review Brian. I can’t watch anymore sealant test though lol, It makes me want to try them all. I’m good on sealants for a long time. (Only joking about watching sealants tests, I love them and keep them coming) I have a lot of sealants on the shelf and the all the new ones that keep coming out are getting better and better and easier to apply. With that said the last couple corrections I have done I have gone back to old school Jescar powerlock and love it, it made me wonder why I was chasing something new with all these fancy new spray sealants that keep coming out when Jescar powerlock is easy to apply, super easy wipe off, proven good durability with great shine and slickness. I maintain with beadmaker after maintenance washes and it just flat out works. With all that said keep up the great test and videos.

[@kev008ify]

Always like your videos no messing around and straight to the point 👍

[@SittingWithDogs]

I give my ceramic coating customers a bottle of this & a few microfiber towels with their package. I give them a little training about proper maintenance & how to apply this & people love it. Easy to use & works great. Special thanks to Michigan Chemical Corp. Great products!!

[@marcoallende3683]

$20 for the gallon on the tec582?! Please tell me where. I need this

[@ldtriton]

Wow! What an ending!! Great video!! I think it would be nice to see another video with Simoniz going through one of your traditional gradually progressing chemical torture tests to see how far it can go before killing it with Citrol. 😉

[@dolland]

Wow, what a comeback! It was like watching UFC :) Thank you, Brian!

[@ldtriton]

Right!! Just when it looked like it was going to the scorecards.... T.C. delivers the knock out blow. 👊💪 Lol!

[@Lowedownful]

ceramic spray is my favorite thing and is a must have in my arsenal, been using it for over 4 yrs now many different ways just like you have mentioned. Great vid once again.

[@dontderockmerizz3211]

Nice to see simoniz back in the industry. And with a good product. I bought their ceramic detailer at a store called Ross, which is like a tj max. Was really cheap & does a great job for the $$.

[@joshuaopfer6566]

Love to see tec 582 on here. Would like to see there ceramic coating. I personally think the 582 is better for multiple reasons but the coating has amazing gloss. Ive been using tec choice for about 8 years now at the dealership i work at. Another decent product for tec choice is aqua glow. But i feel 582 is a very good bang for the buck

[@jdisdetermined]

What kind of long term durability do you see with their 580 coating? I've been using it for a few months and it's been awesome so far. I also coated half my daily driver hood so i can keep a close eye on long term durability but it's indeed very slick and glossy, cost efficient and application is ridiculously easy. If it can hit close to that two year lifespan with two layers it's a total homerun in my opinion.

[@augiemattheiss]

I am buying a gallon, I have paid $2.07/oz for Car Pro Reload, at $0.40/oz for Technician's Choice I don't care if Car Pro Reload is better, I am only looking for good performance. I am not a car detailing guy just your average person wanting to protect their vehicles. It seems that TC is as easy to use as Car Pro Reload, Car Pro Reload is stupid easy to use, that is one thing I really appreciate.

[@MyGuyKirby]

Now will put that into the buy sometime in the future. Too many products now in my cabinet.

[@KM-je5xt]

over the past years TEC582 works on all my cars and my customer's rides except for one truck. we needed to cut polish on it. what ever it hade on it would streak and hazy till we the polish. nw looks grate.

[@notfound-qg2ii]

I thought for sure simonex would win out. There's no disputing the heavy hitter!! And technicians Choice survived. Very very interesting video!!!

[@2020Tundra]

Excellent video. The protection test had me worried for the TC until you hit them both with Citrol and was the clear winner then. Thanks for sharing!!

[@NickM1013]

Wow great review! Techs choice is one of the OG ceramic detail sprays and a proven winner.

[@PrinceOfDarkness1975]

Hey Brian great video. Prob the 4th time I noticed your gloss meter. I’m a weekend warrior. What are your thoughts on me getting a gloss meter? They look cool. Ty.

[@ashishpatel350]

It's better to do two thin coats. Then over use it on one coat . One coat wait for it to flash and buff and do a second.

[@cjburn2758]

Great video again! I just want something to top my coating, and gloss is most important to me. Brian, maybe a video that has to do with layering, and the chemical resistance increase after applying a second layer would be interesting. It could also cover the diminishing return of layering, or something along those lines. Thanks for the videos.

[@millerdetailing4176]

Another great video my amazon list keeps adding up with all of your product reviews. Thanks again for all the great content it makes it nice for us detailers working on a budget.

[@michaelscott8267]

Simoniz coming back for its throne.

[@lorenreyes2855]

Brian always enjoy your videos! I thought for sure technicians choice was going down! Over the Simonize! I'm pretty sure it just might be better than Turtle Seal and shine? Always very informative as always! Thanks again Brian!

[@IndependenceCityMotoring]

Can you leave the panels outside to test longevity? Any updated thoughts on TEC582 now that it's been over a year?

[@ulyssesluevano257]

Tec choice is great for the price!!!! Still searching a dilution chart for it if anyone has it. I’ve used it mostly at 1:1 but I have tried it at 3:1 with success.

[@DVX755]

Well this may be strange, but I actually ran out and got the LOSER of this bout! I loved the beading of Simoniz right up till the Citrol killed it! Well to be honest, I already have a gallon of Technician Choice so I will use BOTH products, thanks!

[@gkiferlt1]

Hell yeah, I was starting to get mildly bummed as I just got a gallon of TEC582 and have really loved it so far just haven't had it long enough to see the durability otherwise its nearly perfect, IMO. Only real downside to me is the availability of it.

[@GLI_1701]

Great video...but if you had to choose between technicians choice or xtreme solutions topper which one would u go for

[@jdisdetermined]

I feel as if I got waaay too excited at that surprising ending.. I'm over here reacting like it was the end of a Shyamalan movie..

Great again! Gonna get both products think they have a place for protection. Keep videos coming.

[@jeromeboily]

You could compare to optimum hyperseal!!! Easy to apply

[@gambietti]

Brian, these chemical tests make me wonder if strip washes work at all. If we are decon and polishing a car getting it ready for protection, what is the best way to remove old wax or sealants? My go to is pp boat/auto, iron remover, clay and polish.

[@apexdetail85]

Polish is the best way to make sure.

[@iwayned]

Where Can I get TEC 582 Ceramic Detail Spray. I clicked the link below and Amazon does not show the product Brian!! Help.

[@Coffeedad]

What is your dilution ratio for rinseless wash, detail, spray, drying aid?

[@GarageTherapyOfficial]

Hi Brian, hope you are well and another good review as always. I've noted that in more recent tests where you have heated up one specific spot a lot of the products have withstood the heat torture. In previous videos where you done a long heated line between the sections there appeared to be a bigger impact made. Also there doesn't appear to be an impact from 220 to 250f. Could you clarify this thought? //Marios

[@apexdetail85]

The heat is there a bit longer that way...But I found it hard to be consistent across both sections. I will expose them to such temps for a longer period of time.

[@Will-ii1dy]

When the Citrol comes out: "Oh shoot. Crap's about to get real." (Had to keep it PG)

[@jimboh5131]

LMAO!!

[@nickstessman1797]

Can we see how Technician's Choice compares to TW Seal and Shine or TW's Hybrid Ceramic line? Would really like to see them compared to eachother as both seem to be good value for the money.

[@BrianW1612]

Interesting video Brian! The durability testing only confirms that the detailers choice is more solvent resistant. I'd be giving the point to Simoniz based purely on the fact that it's way more hydrophobic and was standing up better to the surfactants in the purple power/APC which to me represents more real world testing. Really need to get me a bottle of that Simoniz, not available in the UK though 😔

[@julianjimenez9901]

Is the technician's choice slicker than Eagle Ones quick detailer, so far it's one of the slickest.

[@doremusjessup4039]

I love your videos! I'd like to see a durability test on layering products, ie Tech Choice on a clean section vs Tech Choice applied on top of another product such as one of the Collinites or a Duragloss. I've always been curious if layering prohibits bonding of the lsp.

[@artistnyc123]

I bought some Simoniz Ceramic Wax, what products do you recommend I used on the paint before using it?

[@Vanlifecrisis]

Did you dilute the tech choice? I diluted it 5:1 to try it as a drying aid and while it worked as a maybe a synthetic wax it didnt work as a drying aid (it actually made me have to get 2 microfibers to dry the tech on the panel without streaks). Maybe i over diluted. I currently use megs xpress wax with is ok for drying and decent gloss at the same time.

[@franksattler6053]

I wonder what would happen if you added in the test part using some Meguiars Wash Plus? In the real world, a car gets abraded daily with driving the vehicle and having sand and dirt get on the side of the car and in the front of the car. Chemicals are not always used since many of us use a PH neutral car wash product. Just a thought. As for the products, I like the Technician's Choice Detail Spray. I would love to see how the Technician's Choice Ceramic Coating stands up to Brian's Bruising! This was a good video and informative.

[@apexdetail85]

I am thinking of your recommendation of using Wash Plus.👍👍👍

[@stvcrgy55]

I'm going to buy some technicians choice today.

[@glumdogtrillionaire]

Damn, you're like M. Night Shyamalan, what a twist. Surprisingly the Simoniz seemed to have increased contact angle and beading after the first couple of rounds of APC compared to fresh application.

[@apexdetail85]

skinn0909 lol... I agree.

[@glumdogtrillionaire]

Apex Detail I wonder if this will have a benefit in real world conditions as opposed to the tech’s choice do it its nature of increased beading with washing and seemingly brilliant strong APC repellency. They have the alkaline covered but the d-limonene is a ball breaker. Most wouldn’t use d-limonene during real world washing and decon so it would be a real insight to see those results.

[@adriancota9440]

just ought a gallon of TechChoice, it cost me a little more than $40 on Amazon. I wonder where it costs $20 ?

[@bmwmpower5829]

I would have a wet towel or neutral media to go over the panel in the last test to make sure there was no residue of the citrol remaining before claiming the outright winner with TEC. Nothing against technician's choice, I have 2 bottles of the stuff myself, though I found they don't last nearly as long in the real world and elements compared to many other spray sealants.

[@arcforceworld]

@20:47 DOWN GOES FRAZIER! lol. Nah but seriously, I was beginning to wonder if the Simoniz was actually gonna take the win here.

[@Abc-tu9ry]

Brian, I stumbled on this product online. Try it out and let us know your conclusions.

[@chadj8349]

Long story short car got fine scratches on hood from someone touching it while dust was on car. I removed scratches and V2 with 50/50 pad and sonax cut and finish followed by perfect polish. I did 2 layers of TAC systems shine topped with moonlight. Could Technicians choice be used as a topper? Or is spritz good enough? Also Aqua has SiO2 in it as well.
