Im still impressed with the 303! Every single test video i've seen it either ties for the top spot, or blows everything else away. And with 0 cure time.. definitely my go-to.

[@YasumotoUS]

Having just applied the 303 product to my vehicle, it is important to give the product enough time to haze up to reduce the tacky wipe-off factor. Both temperature and amount of product applied in a given area can play a part in the cure time for the 303 product. I also noticed, in this video's test application, that the initial longitudinal application played a part in how 303 and Turtle wax sections repelled water. Performing a cross-hatch application helps with uniformity in coverage. Interesting test results and being able to apply the Turtle Wax product on a wet surface is very attractive to the DIY car owner who might not have the place, tools or time to completely dry their vehicle prior to application. And in a winter wash, removing the step of having to dry the vehicle prior to application of the protectant is really, really nice.

I've been waiting for this! So what we can say, 303 graphene is one of the most durable products, as durable as the new Seal n Shine! New TW Graphene Wax looks just a little less durable than 303, but with a pleasant scent, no curing time, and super easy maintenance application. If the gloss and slickness are the same as for example TW Ceramic Spray Coating, that makes new TW Graphene infused wax one of the best products!

[@tkirchmann]

Keep in mind check chemical resistance is different from long term durability. TW tends not to do so good in long term durability/wash testing. Dimitry's garage and Scott H do some pretty good "real world ish" testing.

@@MrJunior82006 maybe something is wrong with your spray. I felt the 303 spray felt very slick, more slick than the jescar sealant I have used and many different carnuba based waxes.

The Adam's graphene you're talking about that lasts 7 years doesn't compare with the 303 spray.

I read graphene last longer than ceramic, but heard the opposite from some detailers...my guess is because of the thickness for the ceramic products? any insight would be greatly apprecoated.

PPF before anything else. After that you can go ceramic coating and maintain with ceramic spray. Graphene in detailing is still TBD as the benefit isn’t super obvious yet.

Hope the real adam's graphene coating is more resistant?!.I loved that you show the color of the products! 👍 👍 👍, it would be interesting to do the same with real ceramic, graphene, etc. coatings. For example, I tested a cheap coating on Amazon, the fantastic xml ceramic & Graphene Coating. I put some in a glass and it is rather clear, but a little darker than a CQuartz lite for example!, But even if it is cheap it still works well, rather resistant !, and the suede becomes as hard as wood compared to a CQuartz lite for example.

Jimbo, Approx. How long will a coating of TW Graphene Flex Wax spray last on a car ? The 303 Graphene is supposed to last up to a year.. Thank you.

[@dcasandman]

I have the Adam’s and the 303. I always test them out on my windshield. The Adams definitely clears water the faster than 303. I like to reapply protection or toppers every three months, so I’m mostly always looking for the wet look gloss. The Adams definitely kills in the gloss arena, and lasted until I put 303 on the window like the day one through some crappy weather and salty roads. Jimbos right 303 is super tacky and the panel not very slick after, but I thought super easy to put on. I hope this is like their hybrid WetWax it’s my favorite product they have. I’m not a fan of Seal & Shine or the hybrid ceramic coating.

I have the turtle wax ceramic wax and it works amazing but I'm going to try Adams next from the research I've done. Looking forward to it. Thanks for your info.

[@guywhosleepallday8194]

Are these turtle wax graphene in stores yet. I cant find any near me. Not even Walmart/autozone/ oriely

[@sleeksilver]

I ordered it directly from the TW website, $26 and free shipping. Got it two days later!

[@autodetailingpodcast]

I think it’s only direct from TW right now.

[@guywhosleepallday8194]

@@autodetailingpodcast thanks. Ill do my order

[@francois-yvessimard1310]

From my perspective two for the wine due to his eass of application

[@eduardofolha8415]

Seal in shine is top, I just don't like the fact that it is very relepent and way to dry with the blower, graphene does not have beeding either, it does not provide beeding, it is weak! So I prefer seal in shine!

[@DChamp56]

You can tell right from the start he was biased to the TW. Even wiping it off initially, he spent more time on it, and flipped the towel and wiped more than both the others. If you're going to make an objective comparison, be objective. JMHO.

[@stephenlouden480]

you gotta use the Adams advanced graphene ceramic spray. the one you used is the old gen version

[@autodetailingpodcast]

The advanced wasn’t out when this video was recorded.

[@ExperimentalLawn]

We're all patiently waiting for TW seal and shine vs. TW Graphene....

[@waldoziminski1723]

Apex detail has it

[@stephenlouden480]

i love Flex wax its just as durable as seal n shine and can be sprayed and rinsed off though i don't i use one spray per panel as a drying aide.

[@autodetailingpodcast]

It’s a great product for sure! Love its versatility

[@vamanoz5968]

Nice review Jimbo, could you start rinsing the chemical residuals with something like reset instead of a wet towel?

[@autodetailingpodcast]

Yes

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

Do you know if the Turtle Wax will be available in gallon size?

[@autodetailingpodcast]

I’m not sure. I would assume it would be something they will be looking at for the new pro line.

[@drbobvs]

According to TW, no.

[@drbobvs]

They claim you have to use so little, it should last a long time

[@ChainsawChristmas]

I'd like to see some tests with intense UV lights. In FL the majority of problems come from the intense sun damage. I wash and protect my car every week so contaminants are generally not my concern, but the surface of my cars are easily getting up to the 140-160 Farenheit. Possibly more, no idea.

[@xzibito187]

I wonder how it compares against the seal and shine and the Hybrid ceramic, maybe do a comparison video of the three .....

[@edram9676]

I have a black car what should I be using ? Tw Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Acrylic Black Spray or tw HYBRID SOLUTIONS PRO GRAPHENE FLEX WAX or the 303Graphene Nano Spray Coating ??

[@autodetailingpodcast]

You can use either. If your car is black I’d stick with the acrylic black

[@edram9676]

@@autodetailingpodcast thanks appreciate your feedback

[@andresferrer7628]

it was an interesting comparison, thanks! What got my attention is that with this "going pro" thing, this is not their main product. It's a more traditional liquid wax, so I'm guessing they kept this one more user friendly (to maintain the car) and the other one more effective (for a base layer)

[@BetterThanNewDetailing]

I used 303 when it first came out and like you I noticed how tacky it was. Didn’t like the application or wipe off either. However it does seem to last and resist the elements pretty well. It also does seem to give a good depth of color and gloss to my red paint. It’s just not slick. I’m a huge user of all the other TW Hybrid products and the products from The Last Coat. I’ll be getting these Pro line products from TW soon. Thanks for this review, good stuff.

[@autodetailingpodcast]

Totally agree with you. I’m also a big fan of the last coat stuff

[@michelaudet7799]

Good video, I always like the torture tests and unbiased as compared to other channels that are obviously getting some (perhaps a lot in one case) $ for their reviews . What is the price diff between 303 and TW?

[@autodetailingpodcast]

No $$ was received for making this vid.

[@Youknowitbby]

303 $18.99 TW Flex wax $26.00
