I like what Turtle Wax has been doing for last few years. I had very little interest in the products (even though they had some gems all along) but now they’re marketing is on point and the products do what they claim. Love that.
I've been using Turtle wax since 1977 ...over the years I'm extremely impressed of the new products that Turtle wax came out and your show is really amazing of showing what Turtle wax can do Keep up the amazing job
Love Turtle wax! When I started my detailing journey I use to stick to meguiars, then I learned about chemical guys then I moved to turtle wax and gotta say turtle wax has really outdone others!
Turtle wax has always been a great line. Their new Hybrid solution looks great especially their ceramic spray coating. Made the Toyota glossy 🤩 I remember I bought my first wax that was from Turtle wax for my first car 13 years ago “Ice wax” they discontinued the product and and I’ve still got the tub with enough to do 4 cars. I’ve got their Ceramic paste wax to try out as you said it brings back the memories back in the days ‘wax on, wax off’
I loved the turtle wax ice the bottle of the clear stuff! It was first wax I used could put it on everything no white residue and so easy to apply and remove.
I will say it again. You are BY FAR the best presenter on you tube!!! Great job!! Still love using the Flex Wax you turned me on to.. Great product! Thank you. 😊
Hi Pan, I used the Graphene To the Max Wax for the first time today. When it says to remove with a damp towel you BETTER use a damp towel otherwise you'll never get it off (btw, I did it by hand). I'll be using the Graphene Tire Shine coating tomorrow.
I NEVER get tired of watching this video!! Have seen it DOZENS of times, now! Awesome presentation of FABULOUS products!! Simply stellar!!! Oh, and TW's Graphene Flex Wax is the biggest gem in their Hybrid Solutions line in my opinion, too!! Thanks for posting!
I know that Turtle Wax had gotten a bad rap over the years; however, I owe the longevity (no fade or cracking) of my 34yo dashboard in my '88 IROC to having used a TW protectant for many years. While the name alludes me, it was a clear product in a spray bottle. I have started using the Hybrid Solutions line--thanks to your videos--and hope to get another 34 years (I wish!) out of the car. I use the Flex Wax as a drying agent on all of our cars which I had ceramic coated with Armor Shield IX last year.
I have a 2014 Ram 1500 Lonestar crew cab in deep cherry pearlcoat. I keep it in the garage. I was wanting to find something that would bring life to the color of my truck. I came across your videos and I decided to try the 75th Turtle Wax paste wax. I followed your steps before putting this wax on my truck. Washed and dried the truck, and put it in the garage. Then I used a clay bar and lubercant and started. Took me me a while to get the hang of using the clay bar and solution, but once I got the hang of clay baring the truck, the process was fast. It did get the dirt out of the paint. sprayed with water and wiped off the clay lubercant dry. Then I started with the wax. This smells really nice, and went on very smooth. The Magic was when I buffed out the residue. The shine is remarkable!! Thank you so much for highly recommending this wax. THIS WAX WORKS!! The truck looks like it did when I got it off the showroom floor. Thanks you your recommendation.
That's awesome Steve! Thanks for sharing your real world experience with us. And yes a good wax gives a nice "pop" to colors and your paint must feel super smooth now that you also decontaminated it! Good job.
Once again, Pan, great presentation. Clear, precise and cogent. I needed the update on Turtle Wax since the intro of their ceramic line. Thanks for your dedication and the time you take to keep us educated.
I am going to piggyback off this by thanking Pan as well I really appreciate your experience and wisdom for detailing again thank you for educating and informing us car enthusiasts!!!!
I have been using these products for 9 months, since I bought my new car with Pearlescent paint. The depth of colour, shine and slickness is awesome. The paint looks 'wet' when I have finished... All credit to Turtle Wax for their innovation. Brilliant product!!! Great Video Pan, many thanks...
@@PanTheOrganizer Hey Pan, I would say the Flex Wax, followed by Slick and Slide which I use in my foam canon. I like the trigger on the Leather and Glass cleaners as well!
Thanks for the info. BTW on my 2 newer cars I followed your steps to prep then Max Wax and every few months after a wash I use the Flex wax as a drying aid. This combo makes washing easy and slickness and protection is amazing.
Used Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Hyperfoam Wheel Cleaner and Tire Prep today - Wow was a great product - worked real well on the tire grime and made rims look real good -
After seeing your video a couple of months ago, I purchased the Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic Polish and Wax. My rating: BEST WAX PRODUCT EVER! Dang it's just that good. Used it today for the first time on my Mercedes SL and it was fantastic. Applying it is almost like putting cream on the paint. Smooth. Easy to take off and polish as well. Highly recommended and the shine is something else.
Wow! Turtle Wax has really come a long way since our Dad's old tub of paste wax! There seems to be a LOT of overlap in this line though, and that can lead to some customer confusion. So, for a white SUV with tan leather interior, could you pick out a simplified product list? Also, would you use this Turtle Wax line over the Meguire's Hybrid line? Thanks so much!
@@PanTheOrganizer seal & shine has been my go to topper for awhile now. Based on your tests I think going to give either the Flex Wax or the Ceramic Spray Coating a try!
@@PanTheOrganizer if you had to chose a topper (I’m currently using the TW ceramic +graphene paste wax) which would choose? TW spray Flex Wax or the TW ceramic spray coating?
I felt Turtle Wax was on to something when they came out with the Ice line around 2006/7(?) The Ice Paste was really strong with great water behavior - which at the time (2008) meant a lot to me, because the Zymol I was using didn't hold up all that long. The Ice Paste would hold up MUCH longer. I also used their "Premuim Grade" Rubbing and Polishing Compounds. They were very easy to use, and produced excellent results. Again, this was back in spring of 08 when I got back into detailing after splitting up with my fiancé. During the five years I was with her, I didn't do much detailing. I think her mom's car was the only on I did with my first set of Wen Rotary buffer. Megs pads, Meg's M02, M09, and M26. When I got back into detailing I started checking out the Turtle. Today I'm mostly using Optimum for personal and professional use, but I still like Turtle Wax and am glad to see how they've grown. I also remember buying a bunch of Turtle Wax Vision Auto Polish. It's sheeting ability was part of the marketing as well as some type of synthetic component, like Tedlon or something similar. Wal Mart was blowing them out for a dollar per kit! I bought them all fall of 1997, and still have one!
A couple of days ago I used the turtle wax graphine flex wax for the first time and the car has been sitting in the garage since to allow curing. I had purchased extreme solutions as per your recommendation. Would there be a benefit applying extreme solution on top?
Hi, Pan, your posted videos is like getting a therapy, just full of awesome information and thank you for sharing your experience. Please requesting your input. Living in Jax, FL and have an 2024 MDX Pear white. The car had not been washed for few weeks and had a slight discoloration. The car had a quite a few bud splatters on the bumper and on hood. Decided to hand wash the suv to remove the bug splatters, ended up buying TurtleWax Bug and Tar remover spray. Rinsed the vehicle and then applied the bug and tar remover on the affected area. Cleaned it by using a soft bristle brush so that it would not scratch the paint. To make a note the discoloration was also present on the hood of the suv. Using the soft bristle brush, the spray did lather and removed the bug splatter, to add it also cleaned, removed the discoloration and shine. I was surprised. It looks a lot brighter than rest of the vehicle. My question is, by using the bug spray on the hood will it cause any paint damage? Can the product be used on rest of the vehicle to remove the discoloration. Planning to polish n wax or take the route of getting ceramic coating on the vehicle. Please requesting your input/feedback. Thank you 🙏.
You can use the bug and tar remover on all the painted surfaces no problem. Just don’t let the product dry on the surface. If you are planning on applying a ceramic coating, the ones in glass bottles, DO NOT polish the paint with the Turtle Wax Hybird Solutions Polish n Wax as that contains protection in it and will prevent the coating from bonding correctly to the clear coat. You’d need to polish the paint using a pure polish that has zero protection in it, like Turtle Wax One & Done Compound/Polish or Sonax Perfect Finish. See my tutorial on how to properly apply a ceramic coating : th-cam.com/video/sqQYVjxFqK0/w-d-xo.html
Years ago I bought many of the products in the Meguiars Detailer line, I find myself replacing these with the Hybrid Solutions Turtle Wax line. Just applied the flex spray wax and I'm incredibly impressed

Hi Pan, thanks for another great video. One confusing topic I hope you can cover in a future video is choosing and using machine polishing pads. With all the options available I know it’s a complex subject, but would be great to have the main issues explained in your usual clear and concise style.
Thanks Pan, I have had a look at the video - very useful, although you didn’t discuss wool pads. Any thoughts on wool pads? Your video refers to the 3D One product and you said that you may still want to have a polishing stage after using 3D if you want the best possible finish - would you use Sonax Perfect Finish for this stage? Thanks
Pan, Based on this video I picked up some 3 in1 detailer and you are right! It takes care of the light (and even not-so-light) dirt with ease. Our weather recently changed and I drove in some light rain so the water spots were out in full force. A few sprays of this per panel and it looks like I spent hours waxing my Jeep. Seriously, great stuff. And the smell isn't bad either :)
I love the ceramic wet wax and use it all the time for maintenance washes from reviews on your channel. Next I'd like to try the graphene. Love your content!
@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you for the reply! I started using turtle wax ages ago based on your videos and I absolutely loved them!!! My favorite is TW Wet Wax because it never streaks and it protects all exterior surfaces! I really like Flex wax as well. Sometimes I will use it weekly as I really like the slickness it’s the best of all their products but I’m worried I would layer it too much and it will be hard to remove it when it’s time for a quick polish job. And for interior I love the inside job! It’s super easy to use again and the results are amazing. Thank you for recommending TW! What a great great product. I gave TW wet wax bottles as presents to all of my friends that love their cars and everyone now is a fan!
@@PanTheOrganizer If you don't mind me asking, do you recommend using the grqphene flex wax as a topper for Adam's Graphene Ceramic Coating? Can we use the graphene flex wax on exterior plastics? Thank you!
Pan, can’t thank you enough. All those products are in my Amazon shopping cart now. Will buy them one by one and use them as suggested on the packaging. 🙏🏽
The only product I had ever used from Turtle Wax was the Oxidation/Water Spot Remover. I honestly didn't know they made other products besides waxes until a year ago. I used their Ice Seal N Shine on my dad's neglected 2001 Jeep GC, I only did the hood as a tester and it's held up great! Only critique I have is regarding the polish+protect 24 hour cure time before washing or adding protection. Unless it's a garage kept vehicle, you will be forced to remove the layer of dust/dirt before applying protection. It is not terrible, but it is a deal breaker for me. I would stick with traditional wash, decon, polish, IPA wipe, and protection in the same day
Incredible amount of invaluable information! I’ve recently started using several of these products and they are unbelievable! Thanks for the clear, easy to follow tips to help make us better at keeping our vehicles looking great!

Your first video that came up was 101 detailing. Aftet that I got hooked to your channel. :) and watched lot more. My wife's car never looked better specifically after I applied the TW ice seal n shine. :)
I am living in Vietnam and really appreciate the value of your information. There is no one in my country can share the true essence of these detailing products and chemicals. Most of the detailing centers blow up the ceramic coating to some kind of progressive technology's name to extort money from customers who don't have any knowledge about detailing products. Hope you can do the brand review with Sonax. Carpro is very expensive in my country and Sonax is the most popular detailing brand in Vietnam.

Not saying that other Products will not perform a great job. But I’ve been using and still using all of the TWP. And have been using these Products for the last few years. TWP are 👍🏾👍🏾
For the last 3 years i've relied exclusively on the TW Hybrid Solutions products to detail and maintain my Ranger bass boat's fiberglass hull which is finished with metallic gel coat. I highly recommend it to you fiberglass boat guys. Once per year I clay bar, TW Polish Wax and finish with 2 coats of TW Ceramic Spray Coating. Maintain with TW Detailer and TW Wet Wax (I use the Wet Wax on a wet hull right after pulling out of the water or sometimes with a light spray of distilled water first). The gloss and shine is not only brilliant but the ceramic properties discourage scum and make wipe downs a breeze. Also use the ceramic coating with confidence on all chrome and the windshield.

Got the 50th Anniversary Graphene paste wax and used it as my base protection and use the Graphene spray wax as my topper, works fantastic, looks great! The spray Wet Wax in the yellow label bottle is, in my opinion, the best bang for the buck, considering the awesome slickness ,deep look to the paint and ease of use for about $13 bucks!
Thanks for sharing! Keep in mind you got the 75th anniversary paste wax, not the 50th. They celebrated over 75 years as a family owned business. What an achievement! :)
@@henrysmith180 I do a basic one-step, dual action polisher, paint correction with a hand applied paste wax base coat every spring. I use the spray wet wax after each wash. We only get a few inches of snow right here, but lots of rain!
Turtle wax products are great they have sure stepped up for a reasonably priced item but I can only find some products at my local stores but they are starting to carry more and more every day thanks pan
Good video Pan. Turtle Wax saw the writing on the wall a few years ago when the market was flooded with products from hundreds of different companies and decided to "up their game" so to speak with the hybrid solutions line. I have a few of them and the ones I do have work very well. The hybrid solutions line is pretty reasonably priced too and can be found quite easily locally at the Auto Parts stores and most of the larger retailers across the USA. For anyone looking for very solid products, reasonably priced, easy availability, and the fact they work well, cannot go wrong with the Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions line up.
@@PanTheOrganizer From the stuff I currently have, the Ceramic Spray Coating. Only cost me about $13. I use it as a topper after washing to top up the protection. Also works great for a very quick top up on the protection on rims too.
Hello, thanks for the great video but i have one question. You say '' When you done with these polishes you wait 24 hours then you can start applying your ceramic spray coating'' 15:56 And to get the best result we have to apply ceramic spray coating 1 more time after 24 hours without washing the car. So the total process will take 48 hours. I have a lots of dust in my area and raining too, what should i do if i see dirt on my car (dust mixed with rain) ? Should i wash again and restart the process or what ? I would be really happy if you answer it. Have a nice one.
Im not a detailer...but ive used the turtle polish and wax... its fu**ng great product.. my 2 vehicles are a bit old and repainted...and that ceramic polish and wax leaves them like brand new 😍... I hope soon to buy that turtle polish in glass container
This video couldnt come at a better time. I was at my local autozone the other day and was amazed by just how many different turtle wax products they have there now.
Terrific video Pan. I have used EVERY one of these products and have been at the least very satisfied! With that being said, the availability, value, ease of use and end results of their products are an equation that puts Turtle Wax at the top of the game. I'd also throw in that their "green line" STILL has many excellent products as well. Shine on you crazy diamonds!
@@PanTheOrganizer all of them? Lol!! Hmmmm...for my personal use on my red GTI the Paste wax-FLEX combo is just killer. The Inside Job and Graphene Tire dressing get it done respectively...that is as close as I can narrow it down Pan thx!
@@thestreamreader hey hi Stream, thx 4 asking. This is Pan's channel so I'll be brief but - you asked... Here's a couple that I still keep around and find them to be very effective and very affordable. •Wax & Dry - a spray-on wet wax. •Wheel & Tire Cleaner foam spray •Carnuba Cleaner Wax - paste/spray/liquid •Max Power Car Wash Can't go wrong! Hope that's helpful. Shine on you crazy diamond!
@PanTheOrganizer, has any of there products you demo-ed, been updated or any new products from TW come out since this video came out? There Hybrid line is up there with many of the boutique brands. I became a believer when I tested it against one of my favorite maintenance wheel and tire cleaners. There Hybrid wheel and tire prep really gets the tire nice and deep black even when there's lots of browning on the tires. Thanks for highlighting TW products !!
Pan you never disappoint! I thought I had the whole line but I see where I have gaps in my arsenal. Thanks for this detailed and well presented review.
This is awesome Pan! I recently transitioned from other various products to the complete Hybrid line. My customers and I love the results. Thanks for a very informative post sir!
@@PanTheOrganizer Currently my favorite is the paste wax I have not gotten a chance to use it yet but watching your videos made me excited to use it more than any of the other hybrid solutions products.
The mist interior detailer cleans up pretty dirty surfaces too. I used it on a truck that had mild level dirt/dust and it worked very well. It cleaned it easily and left it looking great and smelling amazing. I really like using that product and it last a long time because of how it sprays. Also I really enjoyed the pure wash soap they have, it smells great and is very slick! I love it
Two questions: 1. When you say wait 24 hours to wash vehicle after applying the spray waxed etc; do you mean you must wash them 24 hours after or are you saying if you are going to wash you must wait 24 hours? 2. The iron Decon product, could you use this on the body as a Decon prior to waxing or is there specific products just for that? On a budget and looking for multiple purpose products, is it safe to use their decon product for that? Thanks for all the info and wisdom you give away, we’re all grateful!
I'm confused by your question. The instructions are clear. After you apply the Ceramic Spray Coating, you have to wait at least 24 hours before you wash your car again. You don't have to wash the car after 24 hours though. I would actually recommend that people wait one full week before washing the car again. The Iron Decon & Wheel Cleaner can be used on the paintwork as well, to remove iron particles and brake dust that's embedded in the clear coat. So yes you can wash your car, then rinse, then use the Iron Decon for chemical decontamination, and then you can also clay the paint if needed, machine polish to remove scratches and swirls, and then apply the protection once all the steps are done.
Thanks for sharing Pan, a lot of useful information here. TW has come a long way with their products, and provides good value for the price. Thanks again for sharing, and keep up the great work!

@@PanTheOrganizer thank you for the videos i never thought u will reply to my comment im from The Philippines by the way so i hope it could help u in responding to some of my inquiry coz our weather here right now is scorching hot.
Yeah Seal N Shine is what originally got me back into wanting to test more Turtle Wax products! Just before they unveiled their Hybrid Solutions line. :)
@@PanTheOrganizer yes after seeing all the TH-camrs reviewing seal n Shine I decided to try it for myself. Excellent product. I like using it as a drying aid. The graphene spray is a perfect drying aid as well. Best thing is that a little goes a long way.
Hi, I'm going to do the full wash, decontamination, polish/paint correction. I bought Turtle wax ceramic spray and paste wax after watching your videos on them. Should I use the ceramic spray as my base or the wax? Thank you for your time.
Turtle Wax recommends a base layer of the Ceramic + Graphene paste wax first, and then you apply the Graphene Flex Wax on top. If you are planning to use the Ceramic Spray Coating instead, perhaps reach out to Turtle Wax and ask them if that combination is ok.
TW's Hybrid line-up is, in my opinion, the best line for novice users. These new TW products have raised the stakes on car care. If you aren't familiar with them you should really try them. The are very affordable and easy to use!
TY Pan, I have been a huge fan of the Hybrid range since they first introduced it into Australia, sadly the latest ones re taking a long time to land here but slowly and surely they are. For me it was the "1 and Done" then the "Too The Max" and most of all the "Flex Wax" (that one made my heart leap) Doing all 3 made my old girl glow as if she was brand new and I found I got about 9 months before having to fully reapply the Flex again, I did use it about every 3rd wash as a drying aid which obviously helped the endurance but it is simply a brilliant product. Ty for the full range talk as all of their products fill that need in all of our lives as car nuts. Keep Safe Keep Strong My Friend 🦘🦘🦘💖💖🚗🚗🚗
Watched the whole video. I’ve come to love Turtle wax products. I use the spray and shine religiously. I’m still going through a bottle of the original formula. Question: didn’t they also have a dedicated snow foam? Thanks for all the great advice you give. 😁
The Slick n Slide shampoo can be used as a snow foam and in the buckets. You’re probably referring to the Turtle Wax ICE Snow Foam. That’s in the ICE line. In this video, I was talking about the Hybrid Solutions line.
Welcome to my channel. You discovered one of the biggest car detailing channels on TH-cam as we surpassed 1 million subscribers and we have over 140 million views! I have been detailing for 27 years and I love to share my knowledge and passion with my viewers. You found the right channel to help you learn everything about detailing. Also, keep in mind that a new car is never new until it's properly detailed. - at the factory, the paint defects are often corrected quickly by rotary polishing which can leave marks and holograms, so polishing corrects those, before you lock that in long term with a ceramic coating for example. - vehicles are then transported by truck, train and boat so they are exposed to the elements, industrial fallout, brake dust, rail dust, etc - vehicles are often left at boat docks (when transported by boat) or in exterior parking lots for weeks or months, again being exposed to the elements - at the dealership, the vehicles are almost always poorly prepped using the same dirty water that was used for all the cars on a given day, and poor washing and drying methods leading to swirls and scratches - at the dealership, a layer of cheap wax or paint sealant is usually applied to attempt to make the paint glossy prior to delivery. It's crucial to remove any previous protection before you apply a ceramic coating, as coatings need to bond directly to a virgin clear coat. If you only plan on applying a regular carnauba wax or paint sealant though, you could decide to skip machine polishing, as those protectants can be applied over existing protection and it's not as crucial to prep the paint as well. I explain all of this in this popular video: th-cam.com/video/QgoyrC-5CMc/w-d-xo.html So you can better visualize the new car prep process, here are the steps I perform on a brand new car for my customers: RS6 Avant Performance: th-cam.com/video/L5SQ0ZIJCj0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=mcQiMs9HBLlaqjGK Mercedes S 580: th-cam.com/video/Vq_tfcwryVI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=whord2_UEFSg28UW Aston Martin Vantage: th-cam.com/video/OKga3yZVTqo/w-d-xo.html Volvo XC60: th-cam.com/video/tvDBBenhYFA/w-d-xo.html Tesla Model Y: th-cam.com/video/gohks8xP5NY/w-d-xo.html Porsche 911 Carrera: th-cam.com/video/2ckiivbFqs4/w-d-xo.html Audi Q7: th-cam.com/video/t7HCBSVnizM/w-d-xo.html

What Hybrid Ceramic solution are you talking about? They have many products in the Hybrid Solutions line. Are you talking about the Ceramic Spray Coating? That’s the one with the green on the label. Yes you can apply Flex Wax on top. But keep in mind for maximum durability you want to apply Flex Wax on a virgin clear coat. Welcome to my channel.

Yes I am talking about ceramic spray coating the one which has green colour on bottle Actually I have already applied the ceramic spray coating but my car is always parked in open area and the sun heat reaches up to 45° C in summer so i am thinking of applying flex wax as you explained that it protects from heating to a certain level due to the graphene infused in it

I have to buy one next week again since its empty. Also i will try like u sad woth the pastewax first then flex on top. I did got some streakings aswell. Mostly when i did it in the shade it looked perfect but whem i went out in the sun i could see streakings. Maybe i used it wrong. I used an applicator and did 2 sprays per panel but i never changed the applicator in between. Also the tire cleaner and coating looks very interesting aswell. I might get those too.
Pan another great video absolutely love that you put the product up to the camera. So everyone can jot down the brand Etc. Again thanks so much keep up the great work. Gary
I feel like Turtle Wax is the Sonax of the US. Viewed as 08/15 products, that recently started catching up and even surpassing some newer high performance products on the market. Would be great if they start selling their products in the EU.
They have been selling their products in Europe for many years now. They are in over 130 countries. Here is a link for their products in the UK: On the official Turtle Wax UK website: bit.ly/3fM7kzZ On Amazon UK: amzn.to/3KpMO2q On the In2Detailing website: bit.ly/3KMYAVB
Detail POPO is quickly becoming one of my TOP detailing brands. Especially the Microfibre line (seems to be the same source as luxury MF) As well as the accessories. Maybe you could do a Detail Popo Brand Spotlight video. They deserve the exposure. Amazing products.
Big fan of their wheel and tire cleaner. Do you happen to know the proper dilution ratio for the concentrated gallon sized container? I’m guessing 1:1? Thanks, Pan!
To my knowledge, it's not meant to be diluted. It's a ready to use formula. However, some have tested in a foaming pump sprayer like this: amzn.to/3NgTWyF And they bought the gallon size of Hyper Foam, used straight for heavy duty, 1:1 dilution for medium duty and 1:2 for light duty and had great results. Do some testing and see what works best for you.
Awesome content as always. Aside from getting ceramic wax applied on my car, I've DIY'd maintenance since I got my car, applying everything I've learned from you and other detailers' vids. Since Turtlewax is readily available where I live, do you recommend any of the TurtleWax products as a topper/drying aid for ceramic coated cars?
Great vid! I just bought a new black accord, and am considering the products this vid for maintaining and protecting the car. For the black paint, would it make the most sense use the TW ceramic acrylic black polish, then the black wax, and finally the flex wax after that?
Pam, your videos are awesome...two questions on the Precision Platelet compound...1. What would be the recommended level of abrasion for a old car? (volvo xc90 2011 silver), 2. Can i use an orbital sander with the right abrasive pad/foam to apply it?
There is no magical combination. You have to do test spots on your specific paint, to find the appropriate compounding polish and pad combo for your desired defect removal and finish on your specific paint.
Another great video. Thx. On a brand new car, do you think you have to prep the car (Clay bar, polish, etc) or can we just go straight to wash and coat (graphene infused polish)?
A new car is never new until it's properly detailed. - at the factory, the paint defects are often corrected quickly by rotary polishing which can leave marks and holograms, so polishing corrects those, before you lock that in long term with a ceramic coating for example. - vehicles are then transported by truck, train and boat so they are exposed to the elements, industrial fallout, brake dust, rail dust, etc - vehicles are often left at boat docks (when transported by boat) or in exterior parking lots for weeks or months, again being exposed to the elements - at the dealership, the vehicles are almost always poorly prepped using the same dirty water that was used for all the cars on a given day, and poor washing and drying methods leading to swirls and scratches - at the dealership, a layer of cheap wax or paint sealant is usually applied to attempt to make the paint glossy prior to delivery. It's crucial to remove any previous protection before you apply a ceramic coating, as coatings need to bond directly to a virgin clear coat. If you only plan on applying a regular carnauba wax or paint sealant though, you could decide to skip machine polishing, as those protectants can be applied over existing protection and it's not as crucial to prep the paint as well. I explain all of this in this popular video: th-cam.com/video/QgoyrC-5CMc/w-d-xo.html So you can better visualize the new car prep process, here are the steps I perform on a brand new car from two of my customers: Tesla Model Y: th-cam.com/video/gohks8xP5NY/w-d-xo.html Porsche 911 Carrera: th-cam.com/video/2ckiivbFqs4/w-d-xo.html Audi Q7: th-cam.com/video/t7HCBSVnizM/w-d-xo.html

Hello Pan, hope you are doing well. Question, as someone who has accumulated all of these products - in which order would you use them? Thanks for your time and your informative and entertaining videos.
I made a dedicated video explaining in what order to use them here: th-cam.com/video/QL1kEPutvLY/w-d-xo.html At that time, there was only the Ceramic Spray Coating as the final protection. You can use that or the Graphene Flex Wax, To The Max Wax or the Ceramic + Graphene Paste Wax if you prefer.
Hi Pan! Thank you for the amazing detailed reviews and how-to-use details. Pan, I would like your opinion on what is the best way to clean and protect (bring back their OEM look and feel) BMW Sensatec seats and dashboard. It's a 2023 530i and there are so many types of interior material that it seems a bit confusing sometimes. Thank you, and I wish you continued success! Costa
Sensatec is a form of synthetic leather. You would treat it the same as you would normal leather. Same procedures, same products. See my leather care tutorial: th-cam.com/video/YFqRpJhkqJw/w-d-xo.html
Love the videos! If using Flex as a base, are you using a topper for weekly maintenance washes? Right now I have Seal n Shine as my base and use TW Ice as a weekly topper.
You lay down the base Flex Wax coat on dry paint. After that, you can use TW Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Wet Wax as a drying aid after washing your car. And once every other month, come back and use Flex Wax in a spray on rinse off way to boost the protection.
Turtlewax has come a long way and is doing phenomenal things! I'm debating stripping the old coating off my windows and using the flexwax as it's own protection The iron remover I need to try, the smell of some is just horrible

I like what Turtle Wax has been doing for last few years. I had very little interest in the products (even though they had some gems all along) but now they’re marketing is on point and the products do what they claim. Love that.
Yeah they came a long way since 2019! Nice to see a family owned business for over 75 years still passionate about detailing and still innovating!
their
Hard to believe how far TW has come…I use these regularly for both my car and customer cars. Easy to use with great results.
Thanks for sharing
I've been using Turtle wax since 1977 ...over the years I'm extremely impressed of the new products that Turtle wax came out and your show is really amazing of showing what Turtle wax can do
Keep up the amazing job
Thanks Angelo!
Love Turtle wax! When I started my detailing journey I use to stick to meguiars, then I learned about chemical guys then I moved to turtle wax and gotta say turtle wax has really outdone others!
Thanks for sharing your experience Christian!
I second that!!
I had a similar experience, Meguiar's in the beginning but now I'm a die hard Turtle Wax fan!
Ten years ago turtle wax was not my first choice, now for the everyday person who likes to keep up their car now it is slowly taking over in my garage
Yup! They have been releasing hit, after hit, after hit!
Their Graphene interior detailer, Hyper Foam and Graphene tire dressing have made it into my regular rotation. Absolutely Phenomenal products
I agree!
Turtle wax has always been a great line. Their new Hybrid solution looks great especially their ceramic spray coating. Made the Toyota glossy 🤩 I remember I bought my first wax that was from Turtle wax for my first car 13 years ago “Ice wax” they discontinued the product and and I’ve still got the tub with enough to do 4 cars. I’ve got their Ceramic paste wax to try out as you said it brings back the memories back in the days ‘wax on, wax off’
I loved the turtle wax ice the bottle of the clear stuff! It was first wax I used could put it on everything no white residue and so easy to apply and remove.
@@BXGreen_DrivewayDetails I remember the product!! Brings back memories. I think we’re showing our age 🤣
I will say it again. You are BY FAR the best presenter on you tube!!! Great job!! Still love using the Flex Wax you turned me on to.. Great product! Thank you. 😊
Thanks Bruce! I appreciate the kind words.
I switched completely to Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions detailing products and my cars look new and people complement my detailing skills. Thank you,
Thanks for sharing! What's your favourite product in their lineup Tedly?
@@PanTheOrganizer My favorite is the Hybrid Solutions paste wax.
Hi Pan, I used the Graphene To the Max Wax for the first time today. When it says to remove with a damp towel you BETTER use a damp towel otherwise you'll never get it off (btw, I did it by hand). I'll be using the Graphene Tire Shine coating tomorrow.
Thanks for watching!
I NEVER get tired of watching this video!! Have seen it DOZENS of times, now! Awesome presentation of FABULOUS products!! Simply stellar!!! Oh, and TW's Graphene Flex Wax is the biggest gem in their Hybrid Solutions line in my opinion, too!! Thanks for posting!
Thanks Chelsa! The Flex Wax is also one of my favourites in their lineup.
I know that Turtle Wax had gotten a bad rap over the years; however, I owe the longevity (no fade or cracking) of my 34yo dashboard in my '88 IROC to having used a TW protectant for many years. While the name alludes me, it was a clear product in a spray bottle. I have started using the Hybrid Solutions line--thanks to your videos--and hope to get another 34 years (I wish!) out of the car. I use the Flex Wax as a drying agent on all of our cars which I had ceramic coated with Armor Shield IX last year.
Their Hybrid Solutions line is now class leading in my opinion. They did a complete brand turnaround in 2019 and have been releasing hit after hit! :)
I have a 2014 Ram 1500 Lonestar crew cab in deep cherry pearlcoat. I keep it in the garage. I was wanting to find something that would bring life to the color of my truck. I came across your videos and I decided to try the 75th Turtle Wax paste wax. I followed your steps before putting this wax on my truck. Washed and dried the truck, and put it in the garage. Then I used a clay bar and lubercant and started. Took me me a while to get the hang of using the clay bar and solution, but once I got the hang of clay baring the truck, the process was fast. It did get the dirt out of the paint. sprayed with water and wiped off the clay lubercant dry. Then I started with the wax. This smells really nice, and went on very smooth. The Magic was when I buffed out the residue. The shine is remarkable!! Thank you so much for highly recommending this wax. THIS WAX WORKS!! The truck looks like it did when I got it off the showroom floor. Thanks you your recommendation.
That's awesome Steve! Thanks for sharing your real world experience with us. And yes a good wax gives a nice "pop" to colors and your paint must feel super smooth now that you also decontaminated it! Good job.
Once again, Pan, great presentation. Clear, precise and cogent. I needed the update on Turtle Wax since the intro of their ceramic line. Thanks for your dedication and the time you take to keep us educated.
Much appreciated!
I am going to piggyback off this by thanking Pan as well I really appreciate your experience and wisdom for detailing again thank you for educating and informing us car enthusiasts!!!!
I have been using these products for 9 months, since I bought my new car with Pearlescent paint. The depth of colour, shine and slickness is awesome. The paint looks 'wet' when I have finished... All credit to Turtle Wax for their innovation. Brilliant product!!! Great Video Pan, many thanks...
Thanks for sharing your real world experience Matt! What's your favourite product in their lineup?
@@PanTheOrganizer Hey Pan, I would say the Flex Wax, followed by Slick and Slide which I use in my foam canon. I like the trigger on the Leather and Glass cleaners as well!
Thanks for the info. BTW on my 2 newer cars I followed your steps to prep then Max Wax and every few months after a wash I use the Flex wax as a drying aid.
This combo makes washing easy and slickness and protection is amazing.
Thanks for sharing Butch!
Used Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Hyperfoam Wheel Cleaner and Tire Prep today - Wow was a great product - worked real well on the tire grime and made rims look real good -
Thanks for sharing
Awesome brand review of truly a common man product. Ease of use, durability, value for Money!
Thanks!
After seeing your video a couple of months ago, I purchased the Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic Polish and Wax. My rating: BEST WAX PRODUCT EVER! Dang it's just that good. Used it today for the first time on my Mercedes SL and it was fantastic. Applying it is almost like putting cream on the paint. Smooth. Easy to take off and polish as well. Highly recommended and the shine is something else.
Thanks for sharing! Glad you enjoyed it.
Wow! Turtle Wax has really come a long way since our Dad's old tub of paste wax!
There seems to be a LOT of overlap in this line though, and that can lead to some customer confusion. So, for a white SUV with tan leather interior, could you pick out a simplified product list? Also, would you use this Turtle Wax line over the Meguire's Hybrid line?
Thanks so much!
Great video! I have been exclusively using the TW Hybrid line of products and have not been disappointed by a single one!
Thanks Mike! What's your favourite product in their lineup?
@@PanTheOrganizer seal & shine has been my go to topper for awhile now. Based on your tests I think going to give either the Flex Wax or the Ceramic Spray Coating a try!
@@PanTheOrganizer if you had to chose a topper (I’m currently using the TW ceramic +graphene paste wax) which would choose? TW spray Flex Wax or the TW ceramic spray coating?
I put this product on a brand new car had 18 miles on it and it was just phenomenal. It lasted more than 12 months for me.
Can i ask which specific product you are talking about?😊
THIS! Is the video I have been waiting for.
Good to know! :)
I felt Turtle Wax was on to something when they came out with the Ice line around 2006/7(?)
The Ice Paste was really strong with great water behavior - which at the time (2008) meant a lot to me, because the Zymol I was using didn't hold up all that long. The Ice Paste would hold up MUCH longer.
I also used their "Premuim Grade" Rubbing and Polishing Compounds. They were very easy to use, and produced excellent results.
Again, this was back in spring of 08 when I got back into detailing after splitting up with my fiancé. During the five years I was with her, I didn't do much detailing. I think her mom's car was the only on I did with my first set of Wen Rotary buffer. Megs pads, Meg's M02, M09, and M26. When I got back into detailing I started checking out the Turtle.
Today I'm mostly using Optimum for personal and professional use, but I still like Turtle Wax and am glad to see how they've grown.
I also remember buying a bunch of Turtle Wax Vision Auto Polish. It's sheeting ability was part of the marketing as well as some type of synthetic component, like Tedlon or something similar. Wal Mart was blowing them out for a dollar per kit! I bought them all fall of 1997, and still have one!
A couple of days ago I used the turtle wax graphine flex wax for the first time and the car has been sitting in the garage since to allow curing. I had purchased extreme solutions as per your recommendation. Would there be a benefit applying extreme solution on top?
You could use the Xtreme Solutions Topper as a maintenance product sure. It will boost gloss and slickness.
Hi, Pan, your posted videos is like getting a therapy, just full of awesome information and thank you for sharing your experience. Please requesting your input. Living in Jax, FL and have an 2024 MDX Pear white. The car had not been washed for few weeks and had a slight discoloration. The car had a quite a few bud splatters on the bumper and on hood. Decided to hand wash the suv to remove the bug splatters, ended up buying TurtleWax Bug and Tar remover spray. Rinsed the vehicle and then applied the bug and tar remover on the affected area. Cleaned it by using a soft bristle brush so that it would not scratch the paint. To make a note the discoloration was also present on the hood of the suv. Using the soft bristle brush, the spray did lather and removed the bug splatter, to add it also cleaned, removed the discoloration and shine. I was surprised. It looks a lot brighter than rest of the vehicle. My question is, by using the bug spray on the hood will it cause any paint damage? Can the product be used on rest of the vehicle to remove the discoloration. Planning to polish n wax or take the route of getting ceramic coating on the vehicle. Please requesting your input/feedback. Thank you 🙏.
You can use the bug and tar remover on all the painted surfaces no problem. Just don’t let the product dry on the surface.
If you are planning on applying a ceramic coating, the ones in glass bottles, DO NOT polish the paint with the Turtle Wax Hybird Solutions Polish n Wax as that contains protection in it and will prevent the coating from bonding correctly to the clear coat.
You’d need to polish the paint using a pure polish that has zero protection in it, like Turtle Wax One & Done Compound/Polish or Sonax Perfect Finish.
See my tutorial on how to properly apply a ceramic coating : th-cam.com/video/sqQYVjxFqK0/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much for responding and your guidance, really appreciate your time. Thank you once again.
Great video!!! I've learned a lot from your channel, thanks for the quality content. 🚘
Glad to hear it!
Years ago I bought many of the products in the Meguiars Detailer line, I find myself replacing these with the Hybrid Solutions Turtle Wax line. Just applied the flex spray wax and I'm incredibly impressed

Hi Pan, thanks for another great video. One confusing topic I hope you can cover in a future video is choosing and using machine polishing pads. With all the options available I know it’s a complex subject, but would be great to have the main issues explained in your usual clear and concise style.
I made a video on my favourite pads, compounds and polishes combos here: th-cam.com/video/2JDvQBs1viM/w-d-xo.html
Thanks Pan, I have had a look at the video - very useful, although you didn’t discuss wool pads. Any thoughts on wool pads? Your video refers to the 3D One product and you said that you may still want to have a polishing stage after using 3D if you want the best possible finish - would you use Sonax Perfect Finish for this stage? Thanks
Pan, Based on this video I picked up some 3 in1 detailer and you are right! It takes care of the light (and even not-so-light) dirt with ease. Our weather recently changed and I drove in some light rain so the water spots were out in full force. A few sprays of this per panel and it looks like I spent hours waxing my Jeep. Seriously, great stuff. And the smell isn't bad either :)
Thanks for the feedback Randy!
I love the ceramic wet wax and use it all the time for maintenance washes from reviews on your channel. Next I'd like to try the graphene. Love your content!
@@jayhoughton558 I figured that which is why I am hesitant to try the graphene. The wet wax is so easy
Stick with the Wet Wax. Easier to use and same or better longevity.
None of the TW Graphene products are better than their Ceramic counterparts IME.
Thanks Michael! If you try Graphene Flex Wax, you will love it for sure. It's my favourite in their lineup.
@@PanTheOrganizer I'll be trying that out! Thanks Pan!
Turtle wax hybrid lineup is the best for me!!! Price vs quality vs ease of use.
Thanks for watching George! What's your favourite product in their lineup?
@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you for the reply! I started using turtle wax ages ago based on your videos and I absolutely loved them!!! My favorite is TW Wet Wax because it never streaks and it protects all exterior surfaces! I really like Flex wax as well. Sometimes I will use it weekly as I really like the slickness it’s the best of all their products but I’m worried I would layer it too much and it will be hard to remove it when it’s time for a quick polish job. And for interior I love the inside job! It’s super easy to use again and the results are amazing. Thank you for recommending TW! What a great great product. I gave TW wet wax bottles as presents to all of my friends that love their cars and everyone now is a fan!
Awesome video as always Pan.
Love the content.
Keep up the great work.
Thanks man!
@@PanTheOrganizer If you don't mind me asking, do you recommend using the grqphene flex wax as a topper for Adam's Graphene Ceramic Coating?
Can we use the graphene flex wax on exterior plastics?
Thank you!
Yes to both questions
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks Pan. Appreciate the promptness in the reply.
Keep up the amazing work!
I started using Turtle Wax Ice Seal N Shine on my white car here in India after your recommendation. Man! It is a legendary product and so vfm!

Can't Express How Much I'm Enjoying Learning From Your Teaching...
Simply Grateful. 👍
Thanks, I'm glad you're finding the videos helpful!
The only product I had ever used from Turtle Wax was the Oxidation/Water Spot Remover. I honestly didn't know they made other products besides waxes until a year ago. I used their Ice Seal N Shine on my dad's neglected 2001 Jeep GC, I only did the hood as a tester and it's held up great!
Only critique I have is regarding the polish+protect 24 hour cure time before washing or adding protection. Unless it's a garage kept vehicle, you will be forced to remove the layer of dust/dirt before applying protection. It is not terrible, but it is a deal breaker for me. I would stick with traditional wash, decon, polish, IPA wipe, and protection in the same day
Thanks for sharing!

I am living in Vietnam and really appreciate the value of your information. There is no one in my country can share the true essence of these detailing products and chemicals. Most of the detailing centers blow up the ceramic coating to some kind of progressive technology's name to extort money from customers who don't have any knowledge about detailing products.

For the last 3 years i've relied exclusively on the TW Hybrid Solutions products to detail and maintain my Ranger bass boat's fiberglass hull which is finished with metallic gel coat. I highly recommend it to you fiberglass boat guys. Once per year I clay bar, TW Polish Wax and finish with 2 coats of TW Ceramic Spray Coating. Maintain with TW Detailer and TW Wet Wax (I use the Wet Wax on a wet hull right after pulling out of the water or sometimes with a light spray of distilled water first). The gloss and shine is not only brilliant but the ceramic properties discourage scum and make wipe downs a breeze. Also use the ceramic coating with confidence on all chrome and the windshield.

Just washed my car with ONR then topped it off with Graphene Flex Wax. Damn what a shine making the white pearl come to life👍👍
Yup!
Got the 50th Anniversary Graphene paste wax and used it as my base protection and use the Graphene spray wax as my topper, works fantastic, looks great! The spray Wet Wax in the yellow label bottle is, in my opinion, the best bang for the buck, considering the awesome slickness ,deep look to the paint and ease of use for about $13 bucks!
Thanks for sharing! Keep in mind you got the 75th anniversary paste wax, not the 50th. They celebrated over 75 years as a family owned business. What an achievement! :)

Have always liked turtle wax products however, honestly its hard to keep up. Videos like this are extremely helpful.
Thanks Tony! I like to explain things to make detailing accessible to all.
Turtle wax products are great they have sure stepped up for a reasonably priced item but I can only find some products at my local stores but they are starting to carry more and more every day thanks pan
Thanks Corey!
Good video Pan. Turtle Wax saw the writing on the wall a few years ago when the market was flooded with products from hundreds of different companies and decided to "up their game" so to speak with the hybrid solutions line. I have a few of them and the ones I do have work very well. The hybrid solutions line is pretty reasonably priced too and can be found quite easily locally at the Auto Parts stores and most of the larger retailers across the USA. For anyone looking for very solid products, reasonably priced, easy availability, and the fact they work well, cannot go wrong with the Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions line up.
Thanks for sharing your personal experience Joe! What is your favourite product in their lineup currently?
@@PanTheOrganizer From the stuff I currently have, the Ceramic Spray Coating. Only cost me about $13. I use it as a topper after washing to top up the protection. Also works great for a very quick top up on the protection on rims too.
Hello, thanks for the great video but i have one question.
You say '' When you done with these polishes you wait 24 hours then you can start applying your ceramic spray coating'' 15:56
And to get the best result we have to apply ceramic spray coating 1 more time after 24 hours without washing the car. So the total process will take 48 hours.
I have a lots of dust in my area and raining too, what should i do if i see dirt on my car (dust mixed with rain) ? Should i wash again and restart the process or what ?
I would be really happy if you answer it.
Have a nice one.
Mr Pan,
We appreciate your time and thorough coverage of the Turtle Wax Hybrid line of products.
Thanks I appreciate it!
Im not a detailer...but ive used the turtle polish and wax... its fu**ng great product.. my 2 vehicles are a bit old and repainted...and that ceramic polish and wax leaves them like brand new 😍... I hope soon to buy that turtle polish in glass container
Thanks for sharing!
This video couldnt come at a better time. I was at my local autozone the other day and was amazed by just how many different turtle wax products they have there now.
Thanks for the feedback Ian! Have you tried any of the Hybrid Solutions products?
@@PanTheOrganizer I have tried the ice seal N shine spray wax and that product works great.
Terrific video Pan. I have used EVERY one of these products and have been at the least very satisfied! With that being said, the availability, value, ease of use and end results of their products are an equation that puts Turtle Wax at the top of the game.
I'd also throw in that their "green line" STILL has many excellent products as well.
Shine on you crazy diamonds!
Thanks for sharing your experience Audie! Cheers!
What's your top favourite product in their lineup by the way?
@@PanTheOrganizer all of them? Lol!! Hmmmm...for my personal use on my red GTI the Paste wax-FLEX combo is just killer. The Inside Job and Graphene Tire dressing get it done respectively...that is as close as I can narrow it down Pan thx!
Which green products are good?
@@thestreamreader hey hi Stream, thx 4 asking. This is Pan's channel so I'll be brief but - you asked... Here's a couple that I still keep around and find them to be very effective and very affordable.
•Wax & Dry - a spray-on wet wax.
•Wheel & Tire Cleaner foam spray
•Carnuba Cleaner Wax - paste/spray/liquid
•Max Power Car Wash
Can't go wrong! Hope that's helpful. Shine on you crazy diamond!
@@audieconrad8995 thanks i noted these
@PanTheOrganizer, has any of there products you demo-ed, been updated or any new products from TW come out since this video came out? There Hybrid line is up there with many of the boutique brands. I became a believer when I tested it against one of my favorite maintenance wheel and tire cleaners. There Hybrid wheel and tire prep really gets the tire nice and deep black even when there's lots of browning on the tires. Thanks for highlighting TW products !!
Pan you never disappoint! I thought I had the whole line but I see where I have gaps in my arsenal. Thanks for this detailed and well presented review.
Thanks for the positive feedback Nicole! 🙌🏻😁
What’s your favourite product in their lineup so far?
TW Hybrid Solutions is amazing! In my arsenal, I use Hyperfoam, Rapid Decon, ceramic spray wax, and Graphene Acrylic tire shine. I may try more
Cool! What's your favourite in the lineup?
@@PanTheOrganizer all 4 lol
This is awesome Pan! I recently transitioned from other various products to the complete Hybrid line. My customers and I love the results. Thanks for a very informative post sir!
Thanks for watching Keith!
I absolutely love the hybrid solutions line I own almost all of them and get genuinely excited to use them
Thanks for watching! What's your favourite product in their lineup?
@@PanTheOrganizer Currently my favorite is the paste wax I have not gotten a chance to use it yet but watching your videos made me excited to use it more than any of the other hybrid solutions products.
I've used turtle wax products for years and I love all the new stuff they have came out with. I really liked the Ice line also.
Thanks for sharing Jim!
The mist interior detailer cleans up pretty dirty surfaces too. I used it on a truck that had mild level dirt/dust and it worked very well. It cleaned it easily and left it looking great and smelling amazing. I really like using that product and it last a long time because of how it sprays.
Also I really enjoyed the pure wash soap they have, it smells great and is very slick! I love it
Thanks for sharing
I have tried the Graphine Flex Wax on my vehicle this Spring. We'll see how it does. Am impressed with it so far.
Thanks for sharing your experience Shea!
Two questions: 1. When you say wait 24 hours to wash vehicle after applying the spray waxed etc; do you mean you must wash them 24 hours after or are you saying if you are going to wash you must wait 24 hours? 2. The iron Decon product, could you use this on the body as a Decon prior to waxing or is there specific products just for that? On a budget and looking for multiple purpose products, is it safe to use their decon product for that? Thanks for all the info and wisdom you give away, we’re all grateful!
I'm confused by your question. The instructions are clear. After you apply the Ceramic Spray Coating, you have to wait at least 24 hours before you wash your car again. You don't have to wash the car after 24 hours though. I would actually recommend that people wait one full week before washing the car again.
The Iron Decon & Wheel Cleaner can be used on the paintwork as well, to remove iron particles and brake dust that's embedded in the clear coat. So yes you can wash your car, then rinse, then use the Iron Decon for chemical decontamination, and then you can also clay the paint if needed, machine polish to remove scratches and swirls, and then apply the protection once all the steps are done.
Turtle Wax has come a long way and I like their Hybrid line A LOT and USE them
👍🏻
Thanks for sharing Pan, a lot of useful information here. TW has come a long way with their products, and provides good value for the price. Thanks again for sharing, and keep up the great work!
Thanks Clint!
im planning on starting my own detailing service and u just convince me what product to use thanks very much

@@PanTheOrganizer thank you for the videos i never thought u will reply to my comment im from The Philippines by the way so i hope it could help u in responding to some of my inquiry coz our weather here right now is scorching hot.
That Ice Seal n Shine is still the GOAT. I I I love the Graphene Tire Shine as well as the 1 n done compound.
Yeah Seal N Shine is what originally got me back into wanting to test more Turtle Wax products! Just before they unveiled their Hybrid Solutions line. :)
@@PanTheOrganizer yes after seeing all the TH-camrs reviewing seal n Shine I decided to try it for myself. Excellent product. I like using it as a drying aid. The graphene spray is a perfect drying aid as well. Best thing is that a little goes a long way.
Hi, I'm going to do the full wash, decontamination, polish/paint correction. I bought Turtle wax ceramic spray and paste wax after watching your videos on them. Should I use the ceramic spray as my base or the wax? Thank you for your time.
Turtle Wax recommends a base layer of the Ceramic + Graphene paste wax first, and then you apply the Graphene Flex Wax on top.
If you are planning to use the Ceramic Spray Coating instead, perhaps reach out to Turtle Wax and ask them if that combination is ok.
Thanks Pan, what a great video on Turtle Wax products and as always I love to hear your thoughts on products before I want to test them for myself👌
I appreciate the value you place in my opinion Mann!
TW's Hybrid line-up is, in my opinion, the best line for novice users. These new TW products have raised the stakes on car care. If you aren't familiar with them you should really try them. The are very affordable and easy to use!
Yeah they did quite a turnaround in 2019 when they unveiled the Hybrid Solutions line. Very good performance and value in the consumer grade category.
TY Pan, I have been a huge fan of the Hybrid range since they first introduced it into Australia, sadly the latest ones re taking a long time to land here but slowly and surely they are. For me it was the "1 and Done" then the "Too The Max" and most of all the "Flex Wax" (that one made my heart leap) Doing all 3 made my old girl glow as if she was brand new and I found I got about 9 months before having to fully reapply the Flex again, I did use it about every 3rd wash as a drying aid which obviously helped the endurance but it is simply a brilliant product. Ty for the full range talk as all of their products fill that need in all of our lives as car nuts.
Keep Safe Keep Strong My Friend 🦘🦘🦘💖💖🚗🚗🚗
Did you check out the official Turtle Wax Australia website? Here: www.turtlewax.com.au/turtle-wax-hybrid-solutions/
@@PanTheOrganizer same waiting for the new ones to hit australia, as the misting and the wheel cleaner are rest of the world only at this stage :(
Watched the whole video. I’ve come to love Turtle wax products. I use the spray and shine religiously. I’m still going through a bottle of the original formula. Question: didn’t they also have a dedicated snow foam? Thanks for all the great advice you give. 😁
The Slick n Slide shampoo can be used as a snow foam and in the buckets.
You’re probably referring to the Turtle Wax ICE Snow Foam. That’s in the ICE line.
In this video, I was talking about the Hybrid Solutions line.
@@PanTheOrganizer gotcha. Hard to believe they still have even more products than this! 😆
Oh they have hundreds more in their other lines (green line and ICE line).

You found the right channel to help you learn everything about detailing.
Also, keep in mind that a new car is never new until it's properly detailed.
- at the factory, the paint defects are often corrected quickly by rotary polishing which can leave marks and holograms, so polishing corrects those, before you lock that in long term with a ceramic coating for example.
- vehicles are then transported by truck, train and boat so they are exposed to the elements, industrial fallout, brake dust, rail dust, etc
- vehicles are often left at boat docks (when transported by boat) or in exterior parking lots for weeks or months, again being exposed to the elements
- at the dealership, the vehicles are almost always poorly prepped using the same dirty water that was used for all the cars on a given day, and poor washing and drying methods leading to swirls and scratches
- at the dealership, a layer of cheap wax or paint sealant is usually applied to attempt to make the paint glossy prior to delivery. It's crucial to remove any previous protection before you apply a ceramic coating, as coatings need to bond directly to a virgin clear coat.
If you only plan on applying a regular carnauba wax or paint sealant though, you could decide to skip machine polishing, as those protectants can be applied over existing protection and it's not as crucial to prep the paint as well.
I explain all of this in this popular video: th-cam.com/video/QgoyrC-5CMc/w-d-xo.html

Pan I like your videos and you explain things very well,
I have to ask one thing can I use turtle graphen flex wax on top of turtle wax Ceramic hybrid solution
I used the ceramic hybrid solution and I liked it but I want more protection and gloss on my black car
Please suggest to me because the flexibility of using graphen flex wax and gloss looks promising
What Hybrid Ceramic solution are you talking about? They have many products in the Hybrid Solutions line. Are you talking about the Ceramic Spray Coating? That’s the one with the green on the label.
Yes you can apply Flex Wax on top. But keep in mind for maximum durability you want to apply Flex Wax on a virgin clear coat.

Yes I am talking about ceramic spray coating the one which has green colour on bottle
Actually I have already applied the ceramic spray coating but my car is always parked in open area and the sun heat reaches up to 45° C in summer so i am thinking of applying flex wax as you explained that it protects from heating to a certain level due to the graphene infused in it
Hi i always watch mostly your videos. Im really fan. Its very informative. I just want to ask. I have a ceramic coated my car. Can i use a hybrid graphene turtle on it? More power to your channel

To answer your question, yes you can use the Graphene Flex Wax spray on a ceramic coated car.
@@PanTheOrganizer thank you very much. Im from dubai. I clean my own car and always check your videos before doing it.
Thank you for mentioning the lack of suds. That was a surprise to me and I thought something was wrong.
My pleasure!
So nice. I love turtlewax since i watched ur vid about flexwex.(it was my first video from u)
I tried the ceramic spray wax but i like the flex a bit better. I have to buy one next week again since its empty.
Also i will try like u sad woth the pastewax first then flex on top.
I did got some streakings aswell. Mostly when i did it in the shade it looked perfect but whem i went out in the sun i could see streakings.
Maybe i used it wrong. I used an applicator and did 2 sprays per panel but i never changed the applicator in between.
Also the tire cleaner and coating looks very interesting aswell.
I might get those too.
I also prefer the Graphene Flex Wax. It's my favourite in their lineup so far.
Another awesome video brutha! thanks for all your hard work keeping us up to date! Love it!
My pleasure!!
The Hybrid Graphene tire dressing is the BEST on the market!!
It is very good indeed! It keeps that black effect for a long time. How long does it last for you on average?
Roughly three weeks but I also drive about 80 miles round trip to work daily
Pan another great video absolutely love that you put the product up to the camera. So everyone can jot down the brand Etc. Again thanks so much keep up the great work. Gary
Thanks Gary!
Ive been using the Pure shampoo. Dont have any complaints, its ok. Will i break my legs running to the store to buy more? Probably not.
That would be insane to do for any shampoo lol
Nice really covered everything!!! I use most of these because they’re the most locally available
Awesome! Thank you! What's your favourite product in their lineup?
Probably ceramic wash and wax. It’s so tricky and unassuming since it doesnt give a lot of suds but the end result is always excellent.👌🏼
I feel like Turtle Wax is the Sonax of the US. Viewed as 08/15 products, that recently started catching up and even surpassing some newer high performance products on the market.
Would be great if they start selling their products in the EU.
They have been selling their products in Europe for many years now. They are in over 130 countries.
Here is a link for their products in the UK:
On the official Turtle Wax UK website: bit.ly/3fM7kzZ
On Amazon UK: amzn.to/3KpMO2q
On the In2Detailing website: bit.ly/3KMYAVB
Detail POPO is quickly becoming one of my TOP detailing brands. Especially the Microfibre line (seems to be the same source as luxury MF) As well as the accessories.
Maybe you could do a Detail Popo Brand Spotlight video. They deserve the exposure. Amazing products.
If I get enough viewer requests I’ll look into it!
Big fan of their wheel and tire cleaner. Do you happen to know the proper dilution ratio for the concentrated gallon sized container? I’m guessing 1:1? Thanks, Pan!
To my knowledge, it's not meant to be diluted. It's a ready to use formula.
However, some have tested in a foaming pump sprayer like this: amzn.to/3NgTWyF
And they bought the gallon size of Hyper Foam, used straight for heavy duty, 1:1 dilution for medium duty and 1:2 for light duty and had great results. Do some testing and see what works best for you.
Awesome content as always. Aside from getting ceramic wax applied on my car, I've DIY'd maintenance since I got my car, applying everything I've learned from you and other detailers' vids.
Since Turtlewax is readily available where I live, do you recommend any of the TurtleWax products as a topper/drying aid for ceramic coated cars?
The Ceramic Wet Wax is a good drying aid for coated vehicles.
Great vid! I just bought a new black accord, and am considering the products this vid for maintaining and protecting the car. For the black paint, would it make the most sense use the TW ceramic acrylic black polish, then the black wax, and finally the flex wax after that?
You can skip the black spray wax and just use Flex Wax. It’s better and lasts longer.
Thanks Pan! There are good variety of products in their line I haven't had the opportunity to test yet. This was helpful.
Thanks! What’s your favourite in their lineup so far?
@@PanTheOrganizer definitely the flex wax.
Pam, your videos are awesome...two questions on the Precision Platelet compound...1. What would be the recommended level of abrasion for a old car? (volvo xc90 2011 silver), 2. Can i use an orbital sander with the right abrasive pad/foam to apply it?
There is no magical combination. You have to do test spots on your specific paint, to find the appropriate compounding polish and pad combo for your desired defect removal and finish on your specific paint.
Another great video. Thx.
On a brand new car, do you think you have to prep the car (Clay bar, polish, etc) or can we just go straight to wash and coat (graphene infused polish)?
A new car is never new until it's properly detailed.

Hello Pan, hope you are doing well. Question, as someone who has accumulated all of these products - in which order would you use them? Thanks for your time and your informative and entertaining videos.
I made a dedicated video explaining in what order to use them here: th-cam.com/video/QL1kEPutvLY/w-d-xo.html
At that time, there was only the Ceramic Spray Coating as the final protection. You can use that or the Graphene Flex Wax, To The Max Wax or the Ceramic + Graphene Paste Wax if you prefer.
Hi Pan! Thank you for the amazing detailed reviews and how-to-use details. Pan, I would like your opinion on what is the best way to clean and protect (bring back their OEM look and feel) BMW Sensatec seats and dashboard. It's a 2023 530i and there are so many types of interior material that it seems a bit confusing sometimes. Thank you, and I wish you continued success! Costa
Sensatec is a form of synthetic leather. You would treat it the same as you would normal leather. Same procedures, same products. See my leather care tutorial: th-cam.com/video/YFqRpJhkqJw/w-d-xo.html
Love the videos! If using Flex as a base, are you using a topper for weekly maintenance washes? Right now I have Seal n Shine as my base and use TW Ice as a weekly topper.
You lay down the base Flex Wax coat on dry paint. After that, you can use TW Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Wet Wax as a drying aid after washing your car.
And once every other month, come back and use Flex Wax in a spray on rinse off way to boost the protection.
Turtlewax has come a long way and is doing phenomenal things! I'm debating stripping the old coating off my windows and using the flexwax as it's own protection
The iron remover I need to try, the smell of some is just horrible
Thanks for watching!
