Thank You Jon again for this video! Appreciate the time taken to film! And we are quite fortunate to be feature in the first video shooting with the new GoPro! Fusso Coat is only the surface of Soft99 products, there is so much more! We are enthusiast ourself and constantly trying to break away from the idea of what a traditional product is! Improvements in the game can only comes when there are alternatives! If you enjoy alternative detailing products! Soft99 products is to go to! Of course we test everything we bring in based on the point of view of you guys!
@Nippon Shine, Jon talks briefly about the Speed & Barrier and it comes across as an alternative to Fusso Coat. I got FC on my car which was applied 3 months ago. Would the Speed & Barrier be a suitable maintenance product or should I use something else like the Fukupika or the spray wax luxury gloss? Thank you.
Great review mate. As I have mentioned before on your combo protection video, my go to winter protection is Fusso Coat topped with Fusso water block. After maintenance wash spritz over with Fuko Pikka 2.0 = bullet proof winter protection.
Great video as always Jon. My son is a keen car detailer, he's got an Arbarth 500 595 Comp, (it's always immaculate inside and out). When I got back to the UK in summer I asked him what to use on my XF. He told me to get the Fusso Coat, Soft 99. After this video, I thought I'm sure my tin looks different, mines a cream colour, which I think is intended for light colour cars, (my Jag is white). I haven't used it yet, but now I've seen your video I will! P.s. I hate Trolls with bugger all better to do than watch great free content, which your is and give it a thumbs down!
I've used Soft99 BLACKBLACK tire coating and it's one of the best I've tried and currently use and FWIW I have 6 other tire products, all great ones. Soft99 BLACKBLACK will NOT disappoint you!
@@ForensicDetailing oh yeah for sure! It leaves the tires with something I'd call above satin but not glossy, very unique IMO. FWIW I also use Gyeon tire, 303 Tire Balm, Griot's Garage Black Shine gel, Hydrosilex Slick and Turtle Wax tire coating (discontinued a couple years ago) These products are all outstanding IMO and different looks so its whatever I'm feeling a particular day.
Another high quality, enjoyable video. Fusso coat is my favourite sealant at the moment. Just finished a 2 stage polish on a friend e46 330ci and didn’t have any issues with removing Fusso. I’m intrigued to try that shampoo now!
A very good morning from Canada. Awesome video, seems soft99 are mixing it up with the big boys and producing very good items for the detailing world. Thanks for taking time out of your day to educate, the uneducated...
they are like a pretty big company as far as these sorts of detailing product companies are.. its just they are bigger in japan. so they are a bit like meguiars to the US or autoglym to the UK but in Japan.
Look forward to seeing your individual reviews on these or the inclusion of some in future mega tests. Be good to see the ‘normal’ glaco glass sealant too
1. Cool when you can just take it and wash the car in November)) We already have knee-high snow))) 2. In the commercials of Soft99 it is said that it is necessary to apply strictly in one direction, I block perpendicular one movement with another, i.e. strictly at 90 degrees. And you put in a circular motion. It is also advised to grind from the beginning of the car to the end, this is how the best hydrophob is created when the car is moving. 3. I tried LUXURY GLOSS it and didn’t understand how to use it correctly. How he did not try to rub dust in it sticks with terrible force.
Actually I think that the Fusso Coat Speed & Barrier is a maintenance product in order to increase the gloss of the existing Soft99 Fusso Coat synthetic wax (Paint Sealant). And many people don't understand (not you of course) that the Soft99 Fusso Coat is a Paint Sealant not a Carnauba base product. It is a synthetic wax. Therefore you have more longevity and cool gloss. But still, it's a great product. The application is a little bit difficult. Apply thin layers is extremely important to know. If the Speed & Barrier has the same name as the Fusso Coat, it means that they are in the same family and they are compatible. Hugs from Sweden Jon! You are extremely knowledgeable.
soft99 fusso is backboned with parrafin wax which is an organic wax. The product name on the data sheet for fusso also calls it a "wax". so if the official name of the product is "wax" and its backboned with wax. Some might argue its a wax. And heres something you didnt know. Theres also some carnauba wax in it. Its actually more wax than sealant. 99% of commercial waxes you could argue are sealants.. But if you had to label fusso one way or the other I would label it as a wax.
@@ForensicDetailing That's so interesting Jon. Thank you. Another thing I didn't know. Actually it was Pan the organizer that labeled the Fusso Coat as a paint sealant in a video in which he classifies the different paint protections. And to be honest when he said Paint Sealant to the Fusso Coat, I said: What??? 😂😂
@@Shamim.keshavarz most people think of it as a paint sealant, even soft99 say its more a paint sealant. But Im old school if its in a tin I call it a wax ;)
speak to jackie paul he will hook you up if you want to show it on the channel. Its good stuff. Go with the speed and barrier over fukupika is what Ive learnt now 3 weeks after shooting this video its much more repellent. The tyre wax isnt for me I would look at some of there other ones they have about 5. apart from that its all good. Kiawmi is really nice. Its more up my street than fusso
Made my first purchase with nippon shine past week. One of the products was incorrect on my order but they sent me the correct product in the post and haven't charged me for or asked me to return the incorrect item. Cannot complain with that at all and looking forward to trying out the products when I get my new car. 😁
Great video as always, shame you didn’t test there glass sealant as I’m thinking of trying it out. As layering on top of fusso I’ve been in contact with nippon shine and they recommended to me for my white BMW to put Kiwami onto of fusso, they said Kiwami is ideal for white cars! for dark cars use King of Gloss as it has an additional darkening effect that will not work on white cars. They said to let the fusso coat cure 6-24 hours the longer the better before applying the wax on top.
really for me evofrst. If you are gonna use fusso then you really want its surface characteristics to be on display. thats where its better than other products. I personally would not top it with anything immedietly after protection (other than perhaps some QD or spray wax for like a final wipedown buff to make sure its all buffed out properly). if you are going to top it. then kiwami or kog will sit on top no problems (ive done the fusso kog combo and its fine). or you could use one of the soft 99 durability spray sealants like fukupika, speed and barrier or was it L7 or Q7 someone mentioned here. both speed and barrier and fukupika seem to work fine immedietly after fusso application I tested that on the black bonnet. speed and barrier is a lot more hydrophobic than fukupika.
Yet ANOTHER fun and fulsome video from the studios of Jon : ) First, I admire you for keeping an open mind to new stuff (the mind is like a parachute: works best when open : ) and bringing them to our attention. As one who details here in Canada in order to buy my lunch and pay the mortgage, I like to use the KISS (Keep It Simple Silly) principle when it comes to detailing and washing cars to give my customers the best bang for their buck so to speak - You know: the time is money as well as product.equation. That means not buying and experimenting with everything under the sun (even from the LAND of the RISING sun heh heh) when I've got tried and true products sitting on the shelf. IMHO if you've got something that yields great and reliable results, just stick with it! BTW, I know YOU know how to handle your Karcher but I hope you've warned your neophyte, viewers that caution is required because PSI is NOT the determining factor for safely removing road film and debris off the surface of a dirty car - GPM is! (Gallons Per Minute) and super important is to "attack" the surface with your wand at a 45 degree angle so as not to shove the dirt straight INTO the paint. I think that you will be VERY well served with your new Kranzle when you decide to "break the bank" to get one. Keep on with your fun vids Jon - you've got a fan here! Cheers!
yer the GPM on the karcher is not high but the pressure is half decent. is what is dave. very cheap pressure washer thats ok for use at home. things being going strong for like 6-7 years but sooner or later it will crap out :)
@@ForensicDetailing Haha yes Jon the Karcher IS a good machine and happy that it has been a faithful friend for you ! My comment was more for people who think that a ridiculous (for car washing) rating of 2000 PSI or some such is BETTER! In fact It's dangerous for the paint and can actually start STRIPPING the clear coat if it's thin or in poor condition. When shopping for a pressure washer it's better for folks to focus on GPM over PSI. I think you might be very pleased with a Kranzle in that regard. BTW, I don't WORK for Kranzle nor do I know anybody that does ! LOL Warm regards and all the best, Jon!
How do you go about cleaning your door shuts and cills during a maintenance wash? Do you deal with them during shampooing or after you've dried the car? My M140 front door cills get filthy and seem to collect dirt just above the side skirt lip. I normally clean with ONR after I've dried, but just wondering how you deal with it? Keep up the good work Jon!
I dont do it every wash. but maybe one in 3-4 washes I will grab a bottle of APC, a damp microfiber and a hoggs hair or detail factor brush and get on my back and get underneath the doors and clean out the underside and the rubber seal strip, and into the greasey door jam area and clean it all out and then rinse out the detergent and blow it or towel dry it and hurl some sort of liquid spray on protection in there.
Brilliant video Jon, do you mind me asking... What product was in that pump sprayer before you applied the Russo? Ie you sprayed the bonnet and wiped off? Thanks a mil
Hi Jon great reviews,I use naviwax ioncoat and find it very good for my situation as I don't have a garage at home and it simply wipes on and buffs off even when the car is damp,just wondering what your thoughts are on this product?
Hi there great video on Fuso products, I ve been using soft 99 Fusso on my car for the last 12 months and although it states 2 applications for 12 months iv applied 3 when I think the hydrophobic qualities have waned slightly. Can I just ask though I have been told the fusso soft 99 coating is not a wax its just a sealant and you need to wax over the top of it (haven't myself as didn't see the need ) but just wondered what your thoughts were as you mentioned it as a wax.
If its backboned with organic wax (parrafin wax) thats melted down and blended with solvent and other components (whatever form of fluropolymer they use).. them hows it different to the million other PTFE waxes that are on the market that no one seems to care about calling a sealant... you can basically call this product a sealant or wax whatever you are confortable with. In my book if something is a wax (literally a like hard paste like thing in a tin) then its a wax. Typically the thing that defines sealant is the main component is synthetic and mechnically bonds. But a lot of waxes have components which fall into this catagory blended into them as well. truth is, it does not really matter too much but peeps been argueing about if its a sealant or a wax since it first hit the UK :) You can put fusso on top of other products as well. At least I have. but its best used standalone or as a base (like a sealant lol)
Many thanks for the great indepth reply and clarification on a great product. I will continue to use as a wax. Ty for the great videos too. Keep up the good work.
Thank you once again for your great video I’ve tried many different types of waxes I’m going to try the fusso wax for light coloured cars especially pear A all the waxes the same in the fusso range I’m only new to this industry it’s just a hobby for me What a your thoughts
To my knowledge, the "official" spray detailer from Soft99 to maintain and top up Fusso is the "Fusso Coat Speed & Barrier" and in the past came in a light and dark version, just as the Fusso Coat 12M itself. The "new" one is now a universal one. Fukupika is more of a stand-alone spray wax.
Great review on this Fusso range,seems to do the job and everything else,im thinking about of getting this myself to be honest seems good to use and apply.
I love Kiwami wax , its my go to wax . I have other waxes but nothing gives the results that does . Fantastic stuff , would certainly look at the spray to add to my box to go with the wax and window sealant
What are your thoughts on applying the shampoo straight to the sponge as soft 99 recommends you do? Also can you recommend any wheel protection ie to stop brake dust build up? Cheers
İ have Fusso White On my White C180 and tire wax plus Glaco on every window for mirrors Mirror coat . İ love Soft99 products my car is hydrofobic about 7 monts
really good for ONR yer. thats prolly how I would look to use it, Im not a sponge guy for normal washes but if you pre wash well and dont like force the sponge into the paint its gonna be fine.
I have just ordered a big red using the discount code you posted on a Facebook a few months back. Pricey but will last me forever and was designed for ONR after all.
Jon was just looking on Amazon.de and notice a product SONAX Xtreme Brilliant Wax 1 that seems to be a best seller in Germany. Any chance you can do a review of.that hybrid wax. German style!!!
So i was watching someone else video first about the fuso coat and they Tell in there video that they use a damp applicator cause it works vetter , do you also do this ? Great video btw !!! Really love your channel
Hi there, what jet wash extended cable do you use from your karcher? (The green cable) the standard doesn’t allow you to fully circle your car without dragging around the machine. Cheers
Is Fusso a suitable protection product after a glaze? Having just moved into a new flat I honestly don't have the time or means to polish my car properly before applying some winter protection but have a bottle of Auto Finesse Ultra Glaze lying around and could order a tin of Fusso as I've never tried it!
Forensic Detailing Channel thanks John. I might give it a try . Also what is that hose you’ve got on your karcher ? as my one REALLY annoys me. I need a longer more flexible one so I don’t have to drag the machine around the car. They sell an extension but it’s really expensive and still really hard.
Another great vid, you are just like us your car gets dirty too, your mats had crumbs on them and we all saw it 😂. Like the soft99 review, car cleaning guru did one a week back was also good to watch. Never used any of these myself but may try kings of gloss, next.
good. Its perfectly sized. the waffle layer is extremly soft. the core layer non contact part could perhaps do with being stiffer to firm up the whole thing. decent price at 6.99. But sponges are not my personal favorite option so I wont be like moving over from a shaggy lambswool mitt to a sponge. but if you prewash well and then use light pressure it can see be viable. a lot of my preconceived ideas about wash related media where thrown all over the place the other day when we were testing all the different media out. In my head I look at it and think how could I use it, and I would perhaps look to use it with quick ONR wipedowns because its a lot cheaper than the BRS.
Fusso Coat does not last 12 Months. More like 6-8, 12m maybe if you boost it regularly with Fusso Speed and Barrier which is booster/enchancer fot Fusso Coat. Still I would wax 2x a year before and after winter. And after this just apply whatever Soft99 detailer you like.
Cracking video :D One of your funniest ones yet and informative as always. I bet Jackie sends you a hat to wear after you wearing the Koch Chemie one lol
I have koch hat and jacket, rag company hat and t shirt, county detail t shirts and some flex and koch t shirts. Free merch is a winner with me ill wear anything if I can get it over my gut :)
I'm going to be putting on the Armour Shield IX Ceramic Coating on my car after I carry out the paint correction (Don't know whether to do it before winter for extra protection or after winter) but after the ceramic coating, would you recommend the Fusso Coat, the Fusso Quick & Barrier, King of Gloss/Kiwami Wax or a simple spray wax/quick detailer?
Shame there wasn't more spoken review about the other lesser line. Think most people know enough about the protection lines. But bloody good quality review as per.
I had dialigue for each product in the line. but when I came up and did the edit the video came out at 45 mins. so I tried to do something different and just extract the core pros and cons of each product in the description for peeps to read. but yer your right paul, normally I try and talk about every single product.
Great vid as usual!But! The Fusso coat spray (speed & barrier) has been around for at least a year...at least here in Sweden. So maybe not released in the UK yet???Cheers
soft99 products are top-notch. I have been using them for several years now. premium protection, affordability and value for money. What do you think of Carnuba Autentic premium wax? Is it better than king of gloss?
So how long has the pair being working for you? Any issues with longevity? I am yet to see a review showing both products paired up. I decided to stick to Fusso only for this winter. I applied a coat 3 months ago and I've been maintaining it with Sonax BSD once a month. I was thinking of buying the Speed Barrier that Jon shows here. The BSD as a maintenance product does a great job that's for sure.
@@JWL-UK It's been on my car all year, no issues. I top it up with various quick waxes and detailers all year though. One coat of Fusso, two coats of 845, car is like a mirror. Let Fusso cure for a day or two first, applying carnouba on top works well and it won't take the Fusso Coat off. Once Fusso is on the only real way to remove it is to polish it off I have found.
@@kenlawton1531 thanks! So, how often do you go back to a clean slate to start over with a full polishing, etc and when you do, do you find much contamination that made through the layers when claying?
@@JWL-UKI do that every 18 months, or so. Absolutely minimal contaminants if any, my car, when washed etc, is smooth like glass. And it's my daily driver in heavy Sydney traffic.
@@kenlawton1531 thanks mate. I hope Jon is reading this! It proves that the protection that FC gives goes beyond the water behaviour for which it's known. I used the 845 for the first time in May and then did a full prep for winter in early September. I'll try this combo in the spring and see how it goes. I felt the car was a little bit more dusty with the collinite on this year but we had an atypical spring and summer here in the UK so I was attracted to the idea of leaving fusso only during the winter to see if it would resist to salt and road grime becoming stuck to the paint. It's been great so far but the harshest months are about to start.
not fusso. they have a glaco glasss sealer as well i think but I was using the wing mirror aerosol thing. not the glass sealant. check with nipponshine mate they will be able to advise.
Ive got the same Kartcher pressure sprayer and have the same problem as you. The high pressure pipe is too damn short. Have to keep dragging the unit around which is really annoying.
its a pain yer. I try and do it so I just have to do one like move and always keep the thing away from the car in case you accidently pull it over trying to untangle that green snake hose :)
@@dennisb5319 Even though completely into coatings I'd love to see a test between Soft99 and either of those Collinite products. I remember #476 getting me through a harsh Chicagoland winter with NO problems!
That would be interesting, but i think the soft99 would take the crown, the majority of customers don't want to go to the expenditure of having a coating applied but still want something durable this is where soft99 steps in, perfect for winter preps, not that uk winters are that harsh but you know what i mean.
@@dennisb5319 which Soft99 product is better than both #915 & #476 or is there one of each to compete with them, I'm curious, maybe I'll do a test on my wife's Mazda 6, good exchange here👍
I use fusso coat for its hydrophobic properties then when i go to a show ill use a carnuba based wax for its gloss enhancement. I know the wax will only last a couple weeks, 1 month at best then the fusso will still be there protecting the paint
what i would like to see if you are up for A challenge. Go on Wish and do a full detail review with the cheap brushes, MF towels and Fusso Lookalike waxes and water repellents. All the stuff you usually need but only purcahsed from Wish i have tried a few and i was not at all dissapointed with the results. Dirt cheap and not that big of a difference from the established brands
I go the multi cultural route 😂. The British way with bilt hambers snow foam, shampoo and wheel cleaner then the German way with Koch chemies Finish spray. A suggestion I could give you is doing an upholstery cleaning product review. I'm thinking of getting gtechniqs smart fabric as it has hydrophobic abilities which can save you carpets from any drink spillages
I chose the tyre wax just because it was different and soft 99 have about 4 to choose from. but its like a bit dry to apply a wax to a tyre. I got the best results from loading up a bit more product. can be a bit messy to use because its going to perhaps put black wax on the rim.. a sort of wet product tends to cover everything better than a dry wax. but it was interesting. Ive not used the gyeon product will eventually get around to testing it ive heard good things about it.
@@ForensicDetailing Gyeon is my go to, It's not the easiest to spread in to all the patterns of the tyre but I think the look and durability are the best out there.
its easier to remove and thats an important thing.. KOG is glossy as well though.. ultimately gonna be personal preference there hardly anything between the 2. but ive used both and I think Id go with kiwammi
I just noticed driving the M140 with speed and barrier on half the bonnet and kiwami on the other half. the beads on the speed and barrier side sort of stuck there and I got home and this side of the bonnet still had the beads stuck to it but the other side was clear.
I think like andreas says if you applied fusso to the glass then something abrasive will be needed to strip it. I would go at it with meguiars wash plus on a sponge block.. the rinse then either glass polish and then IPA wipe of mineral spirit degreaser and buff it dry.
see "waxing on top of ceramic coating" video norman. Is si02 better than PTFE. In short I dont know mate. Its a complex question to attempt to answer it would take an essay. PTFE has some good qualities, although its a bit old school.
not really mate but you are just hurling product on the car each wash. but its all down to personal preference. ideally you would lay down some protection and then leave that protection alone and wash the car and perhaps use some detailing spray. and top up protection 6 months later or something... but I understand peeps, including me, want to use a sort of protective product as well as the icing on the cake, just dont fall into the trap of overcooking it though.
Started watching 2 months ago and you have cost me a small fortune! My cars looking good though lol.

That means not buying and experimenting with everything under the sun (even from the LAND of the RISING sun heh heh) when I've got tried and true products sitting on the shelf. IMHO if you've got something that yields great and reliable results, just stick with it! BTW, I know YOU know how to handle your Karcher but I hope you've warned your neophyte, viewers that caution is required because PSI is NOT the determining factor for safely removing road film and debris off the surface of a dirty car - GPM is! (Gallons Per Minute) and super important is to "attack" the surface with your wand at a 45 degree angle so as not to shove the dirt straight INTO the paint. I think that you will be VERY well served with your new Kranzle when you decide to "break the bank" to get one. Keep on with your fun vids Jon - you've got a fan here! Cheers!
yer the GPM on the karcher is not high but the pressure is half decent. is what is dave. very cheap pressure washer thats ok for use at home. things being going strong for like 6-7 years but sooner or later it will crap out :)
@@ForensicDetailing Haha yes Jon the Karcher IS a good machine and happy that it has been a faithful friend for you ! My comment was more for people who think that a ridiculous (for car washing) rating of 2000 PSI or some such is BETTER! In fact It's dangerous for the paint and can actually start STRIPPING the clear coat if it's thin or in poor condition. When shopping for a pressure washer it's better for folks to focus on GPM over PSI. I think you might be very pleased with a Kranzle in that regard. BTW, I don't WORK for Kranzle nor do I know anybody that does ! LOL Warm regards and all the best, Jon!
Love fusso coat. Will you please make a comparison of duarbility of that? Thanks!
Double thumbs up! Always funny as well as informative.
How do you go about cleaning your door shuts and cills during a maintenance wash? Do you deal with them during shampooing or after you've dried the car? My M140 front door cills get filthy and seem to collect dirt just above the side skirt lip. I normally clean with ONR after I've dried, but just wondering how you deal with it? Keep up the good work Jon!
I dont do it every wash. but maybe one in 3-4 washes I will grab a bottle of APC, a damp microfiber and a hoggs hair or detail factor brush and get on my back and get underneath the doors and clean out the underside and the rubber seal strip, and into the greasey door jam area and clean it all out and then rinse out the detergent and blow it or towel dry it and hurl some sort of liquid spray on protection in there.
Brilliant video Jon, do you mind me asking... What product was in that pump sprayer before you applied the Russo? Ie you sprayed the bonnet and wiped off? Thanks a mil
just IPA, SLES and water mix m8
@@ForensicDetailing hehe, had to Google sles, and got a link to a video where you make it. Legend. Did it help dry the panel?
Hi Jon great reviews,I use naviwax ioncoat and find it very good for my situation as I don't have a garage at home and it simply wipes on and buffs off even when the car is damp,just wondering what your thoughts are on this product?
I spry wax every wash and don’t see why not it makes drying easier and adds protection.
Hi there great video on Fuso products, I ve been using soft 99 Fusso on my car for the last 12 months and although it states 2 applications for 12 months iv applied 3 when I think the hydrophobic qualities have waned slightly. Can I just ask though I have been told the fusso soft 99 coating is not a wax its just a sealant and you need to wax over the top of it (haven't myself as didn't see the need ) but just wondered what your thoughts were as you mentioned it as a wax.
If its backboned with organic wax (parrafin wax) thats melted down and blended with solvent and other components (whatever form of fluropolymer they use).. them hows it different to the million other PTFE waxes that are on the market that no one seems to care about calling a sealant... you can basically call this product a sealant or wax whatever you are confortable with. In my book if something is a wax (literally a like hard paste like thing in a tin) then its a wax. Typically the thing that defines sealant is the main component is synthetic and mechnically bonds. But a lot of waxes have components which fall into this catagory blended into them as well. truth is, it does not really matter too much but peeps been argueing about if its a sealant or a wax since it first hit the UK :) You can put fusso on top of other products as well. At least I have. but its best used standalone or as a base (like a sealant lol)
Many thanks for the great indepth reply and clarification on a great product. I will continue to use as a wax. Ty for the great videos too. Keep up the good work.
Thank you once again for your great video
I’ve tried many different types of waxes
I’m going to try the fusso wax for light coloured cars especially pear
A all the waxes the same in the fusso range I’m only new to this industry it’s just a hobby for me
What a your thoughts
How did you get the Mirror Coat to stick to the mirrors? When I tested it, the slightest touch destroyed the coating.
Needed to use a light version of fusso for light coloured cars.
makes no difference and thats coming from someone thats tested both light and dark fusso with a colour spectrometer (as well as glossmeters)
Hi is there any chance you could do a test on clay baring and sea if it scratches the paint ?
have a watch of the clay bar bible video we test this out and show the results
To my knowledge, the "official" spray detailer from Soft99 to maintain and top up Fusso is the "Fusso Coat Speed & Barrier" and in the past came in a light and dark version, just as the Fusso Coat 12M itself. The "new" one is now a universal one. Fukupika is more of a stand-alone spray wax.
What did you think of the wash spounge that comes with the shampoo Jon?
Very soft
Yet another great and interesting product review, keep them coming.
Great review on this Fusso range,seems to do the job and everything else,im thinking about of getting this myself to be honest seems good to use and apply.
I love Kiwami wax , its my go to wax . I have other waxes but nothing gives the results that does . Fantastic stuff , would certainly look at the spray to add to my box to go with the wax and window sealant
Amazing video. It was nice to see the process from beginning to end. What powerwasher were you using?
thanks mark its a karcher k4 eco
What are your thoughts on applying the shampoo straight to the sponge as soft 99 recommends you do? Also can you recommend any wheel protection ie to stop brake dust build up? Cheers
Coatings are best fur wheels soft99 have coat7ngs6
great video, I love my soft 99 products and now keen to order the new Fusso spray !
speed and barrier is the one I like the most (between it and fukupika its more durable and more repellent)
İ have Fusso White On my White C180 and tire wax plus Glaco on every window for mirrors Mirror coat . İ love Soft99 products my car is hydrofobic about 7 monts
Like style of this one and nicely edited. How did you find the sponge? Would it be a good match for ONR?
really good for ONR yer. thats prolly how I would look to use it, Im not a sponge guy for normal washes but if you pre wash well and dont like force the sponge into the paint its gonna be fine.
I have just ordered a big red using the discount code you posted on a Facebook a few months back. Pricey but will last me forever and was designed for ONR after all.
for tire coating, i love Soft99 Black Black and Luxury gloss for maintenance wash.. thanks for upload this video
What are your thoughts on Tyre Wax on faded plastic trim?
HA! love the theme on this Jon! Excellent work mate, you should of worn a yukata for this vid ;)
Very intresting sponge really! But, I'm little bit worried about scratches ... 🤔
Price is also little bit high to experiment 👀.
Could you use something like Demon Shine on top of Fusso after subsequent washes?
Is there any other product for gloss enhancement on Fusso coat, really appreciate if you could test with some proper readings
top it with kog or kiwammi and it wont look so flat after week1.
Jon was just looking on Amazon.de and notice a product SONAX Xtreme Brilliant Wax 1 that seems to be a best seller in Germany. Any chance you can do a review of.that hybrid wax. German style!!!
So i was watching someone else video first about the fuso coat and they Tell in there video that they use a damp applicator cause it works vetter , do you also do this ?
Great video btw !!! Really love your channel
you can do jelle, it will help get less product on the applicator and make it a bit smoother but you dont really need to.
Hi there, what jet wash extended cable do you use from your karcher? (The green cable) the standard doesn’t allow you to fully circle your car without dragging around the machine.
Cheers
my one is standard kris I have to move the karcher
Hi.Did you ever try Mitchell and King products ? What do you think about MK DA polisher with 1000w motor ?
not tried mate sorry they do look nice though
Is Fusso a suitable protection product after a glaze? Having just moved into a new flat I honestly don't have the time or means to polish my car properly before applying some winter protection but have a bottle of Auto Finesse Ultra Glaze lying around and could order a tin of Fusso as I've never tried it!
yes m8
What is the mixing ratio for the Creamy Shampoo for a snow foam?
Not sure sorry this was many years ago
I have literally just finished putting a layer of fusso on the car... knackered. 😓
Can I put king of gloss over the fusso?
I want to know this also
you can guys yes
Forensic Detailing Channel thanks John. I might give it a try . Also what is that hose you’ve got on your karcher ? as my one REALLY annoys me. I need a longer more flexible one so I don’t have to drag the machine around the car. They sell an extension but it’s really expensive and still really hard.
That creamy foam shampoo looks delicious
you tried topping fusso with bsd
i wanna know this as well. how does this combo do.
sameer0605 he has a video on different wax combos one is fusso with bsd
Another great vid, you are just like us your car gets dirty too, your mats had crumbs on them and we all saw it 😂. Like the soft99 review, car cleaning guru did one a week back was also good to watch. Never used any of these myself but may try kings of gloss, next.
bits of maccy d's and sausage roll in the floor matts :(
I would like to see individual reviews on these please.
How did you find the sponge jon? Intuitively it looks wrong but maybe it's just the way we're conditioned.
good. Its perfectly sized. the waffle layer is extremly soft. the core layer non contact part could perhaps do with being stiffer to firm up the whole thing. decent price at 6.99. But sponges are not my personal favorite option so I wont be like moving over from a shaggy lambswool mitt to a sponge. but if you prewash well and then use light pressure it can see be viable. a lot of my preconceived ideas about wash related media where thrown all over the place the other day when we were testing all the different media out. In my head I look at it and think how could I use it, and I would perhaps look to use it with quick ONR wipedowns because its a lot cheaper than the BRS.
Lovely video as always! Do you have any experience with Soft99 F7? I would love to hear your thought on it.
Im sorry pogy Ive not used that one mate
It is good car looks very clean after a week of driving for sure good product again quite hard to apply
Can you make a video where you apply fusso coat first and top it with kiwami?
I heard that you get excellent results?
What foam was used?
Everyone seems to be doing Fusso car cleaning advertisements just lately !
It seems like fusso is everything I need for my car. Wax once a year, wash weekly and use Quick detailer for maintenance.
Fusso Coat does not last 12 Months. More like 6-8, 12m maybe if you boost it regularly with Fusso Speed and Barrier which is booster/enchancer fot Fusso Coat. Still I would wax 2x a year before and after winter. And after this just apply whatever Soft99 detailer you like.
Cracking video :D One of your funniest ones yet and informative as always. I bet Jackie sends you a hat to wear after you wearing the Koch Chemie one lol
I have koch hat and jacket, rag company hat and t shirt, county detail t shirts and some flex and koch t shirts. Free merch is a winner with me ill wear anything if I can get it over my gut :)
@@ForensicDetailing lol love you Jon lol
Just ordered a bottle of Luxury gloss, Lets see how it is. 💯
I'm going to be putting on the Armour Shield IX Ceramic Coating on my car after I carry out the paint correction (Don't know whether to do it before winter for extra protection or after winter) but after the ceramic coating, would you recommend the Fusso Coat, the Fusso Quick & Barrier, King of Gloss/Kiwami Wax or a simple spray wax/quick detailer?
Brilliant footage Jon. M140i is looking good as well 😉
what do you think of F7
Please tell me how to get the plastic cap to go back on the fusso coat can. It won’t stay on. I can’t get it to snap shut and lock onto to the can. 😂
You stretched it using it to open the tin 😁
What do u use on the pedals?
Shame there wasn't more spoken review about the other lesser line. Think most people know enough about the protection lines. But bloody good quality review as per.
I had dialigue for each product in the line. but when I came up and did the edit the video came out at 45 mins. so I tried to do something different and just extract the core pros and cons of each product in the description for peeps to read. but yer your right paul, normally I try and talk about every single product.
Great vid as usual!But! The Fusso coat spray (speed & barrier) has been around for at least a year...at least here in Sweden. So maybe not released in the UK yet???Cheers
i think its going live in the UK very soon
Nice video mate. You reviewed the products that I actually wanted to invest in. So they are good. Nice.
Regards
soft99 products are top-notch. I have been using them for several years now. premium protection, affordability and value for money. What do you think of Carnuba Autentic premium wax? Is it better than king of gloss?
Ive not used it sorry. but I really like kiwammi. its basically what I want a wax to be like. It does me.
Fusso my go to sealant topped with Collinite 845, match made in heaven.
So how long has the pair being working for you? Any issues with longevity? I am yet to see a review showing both products paired up. I decided to stick to Fusso only for this winter. I applied a coat 3 months ago and I've been maintaining it with Sonax BSD once a month. I was thinking of buying the Speed Barrier that Jon shows here. The BSD as a maintenance product does a great job that's for sure.
@@JWL-UK It's been on my car all year, no issues. I top it up with various quick waxes and detailers all year though. One coat of Fusso, two coats of 845, car is like a mirror. Let Fusso cure for a day or two first, applying carnouba on top works well and it won't take the Fusso Coat off. Once Fusso is on the only real way to remove it is to polish it off I have found.
@@kenlawton1531 thanks! So, how often do you go back to a clean slate to start over with a full polishing, etc and when you do, do you find much contamination that made through the layers when claying?
@@JWL-UKI do that every 18 months, or so. Absolutely minimal contaminants if any, my car, when washed etc, is smooth like glass. And it's my daily driver in heavy Sydney traffic.
@@kenlawton1531 thanks mate. I hope Jon is reading this! It proves that the protection that FC gives goes beyond the water behaviour for which it's known. I used the 845 for the first time in May and then did a full prep for winter in early September. I'll try this combo in the spring and see how it goes. I felt the car was a little bit more dusty with the collinite on this year but we had an atypical spring and summer here in the UK so I was attracted to the idea of leaving fusso only during the winter to see if it would resist to salt and road grime becoming stuck to the paint. It's been great so far but the harshest months are about to start.
What did you use on the glass? FUSSO? I'm looking to apply a long lasting sealant to glass to repeal rain/snow
not fusso. they have a glaco glasss sealer as well i think but I was using the wing mirror aerosol thing. not the glass sealant. check with nipponshine mate they will be able to advise.
The tire wax?
Is the glass stuff comparable to Stones invisible glass?
also discount code not working?
fixed that early this morning some setting has gone wrong!
Ive got the same Kartcher pressure sprayer and have the same problem as you. The high pressure pipe is too damn short. Have to keep dragging the unit around which is really annoying.
its a pain yer. I try and do it so I just have to do one like move and always keep the thing away from the car in case you accidently pull it over trying to untangle that green snake hose :)
Love the video and the new shots from the GoPro are awesome.!!!
I tried the discount code to buy Fukupika and it keeps saying it’s invalid :(
I imagine that the old skool collinite has been knocked off it's perch, Fusso F7 did'nt get a mention, it's a gem amongst that brand.
Which Collinite are you referring to?
476 and 915
@@dennisb5319 Even though completely into coatings I'd love to see a test between Soft99 and either of those Collinite products. I remember #476 getting me through a harsh Chicagoland winter with NO problems!
That would be interesting, but i think the soft99 would take the crown, the majority of customers don't want to go to the expenditure of having a coating applied but still want something durable this is where soft99 steps in, perfect for winter preps, not that uk winters are that harsh but you know what i mean.
@@dennisb5319 which Soft99 product is better than both #915 & #476 or is there one of each to compete with them, I'm curious, maybe I'll do a test on my wife's Mazda 6, good exchange here👍
I have understand japanese style is put shampoo in washmit and spread..? Not sure
I use fusso coat for its hydrophobic properties then when i go to a show ill use a carnuba based wax for its gloss enhancement. I know the wax will only last a couple weeks, 1 month at best then the fusso will still be there protecting the paint
what i would like to see if you are up for A challenge.
Go on Wish and do a full detail review with the cheap brushes, MF towels and Fusso Lookalike waxes and water repellents.
All the stuff you usually need but only purcahsed from Wish
i have tried a few and i was not at all dissapointed with the results.
Dirt cheap and not that big of a difference from the established brands
Thank you John very helpful as always
Great review Jon, love the go pro hero
I go the multi cultural route 😂. The British way with bilt hambers snow foam, shampoo and wheel cleaner then the German way with Koch chemies Finish spray.
A suggestion I could give you is doing an upholstery cleaning product review. I'm thinking of getting gtechniqs smart fabric as it has hydrophobic abilities which can save you carpets from any drink spillages
Extremely helpful video very professional work
Same Sanuk shoes as me! Did you get them from Florida?
Love fusso and king of gloss.
G
hey dudes gary they are available in the UK I thought like cornwall based brand or something could be wrong though
What did you think of the tyre wax compared to something like Gyeon tyre?
I chose the tyre wax just because it was different and soft 99 have about 4 to choose from. but its like a bit dry to apply a wax to a tyre. I got the best results from loading up a bit more product. can be a bit messy to use because its going to perhaps put black wax on the rim.. a sort of wet product tends to cover everything better than a dry wax. but it was interesting. Ive not used the gyeon product will eventually get around to testing it ive heard good things about it.
@@ForensicDetailing Gyeon is my go to, It's not the easiest to spread in to all the patterns of the tyre but I think the look and durability are the best out there.
So I guess my question is the Kiwamai wax if I spelled it right better than King Of Gloss ?
its easier to remove and thats an important thing.. KOG is glossy as well though.. ultimately gonna be personal preference there hardly anything between the 2. but ive used both and I think Id go with kiwammi
Does anyone else find with the fusso that the beading tends to "stick" to the car so the paint stays wet for longer?
I just noticed driving the M140 with speed and barrier on half the bonnet and kiwami on the other half. the beads on the speed and barrier side sort of stuck there and I got home and this side of the bonnet still had the beads stuck to it but the other side was clear.
Hi can you recommend some product for removing Fusso from windshield? Thanks & cheers from Croatia!
Glas polish is the safest bet!
Andreas Schwarzinger thank you for reply, I’ve used Car pro glass polish set and still get weird stains when wipers are on.
Then it's most likely the wipers which still have product leftover in them. Try to clean them or straight replace them.
I think like andreas says if you applied fusso to the glass then something abrasive will be needed to strip it. I would go at it with meguiars wash plus on a sponge block.. the rinse then either glass polish and then IPA wipe of mineral spirit degreaser and buff it dry.
Forensic Detailing Channel Il give it a go, thank you for reply.
Can the Fusso Coat be used on TOP of a ceramic coating?
Is SIO2 sealeant better or this PTFE Fusso coating?
see "waxing on top of ceramic coating" video norman. Is si02 better than PTFE. In short I dont know mate. Its a complex question to attempt to answer it would take an essay. PTFE has some good qualities, although its a bit old school.
jon as you said, fusso is a stand-alone product. but i want to use my sonax high speed wax after every wash? can i do that? i just bought this btw.
you shouldnt be waxing after every wash sergie... but ultimately you can if you want to mate.
@@ForensicDetailing is it bad for the fusso though? i want to use it like a fukupika alternative. when the gloss starts to fade.
not really mate but you are just hurling product on the car each wash. but its all down to personal preference. ideally you would lay down some protection and then leave that protection alone and wash the car and perhaps use some detailing spray. and top up protection 6 months later or something... but I understand peeps, including me, want to use a sort of protective product as well as the icing on the cake, just dont fall into the trap of overcooking it though.
