It's a decent wax but time has not done it any favours and there are now much easier and longer lasting waxes available. The TW wax is far easier to use.
Turtle Wax, 75th anniversary promotion may be the most successful Social media driven marketing campaign in the history of the Automotive industry. What a job!
There is no doubt the product they shipped out to influencers is good but will it be the same formulation for the commercial batches post the birthday campaign?
The TW Paste after several applications within a week on the flat red paint on my GTI is fabulous. Added shade of depth to the color and gloss after 3 weeks is exceptional. H2O repellancy has been exceptional as well. After 4 weeks and several washings I have added a topper of the Graphene FLEX Wax spray...gawdayamn! Bah-ling!.... noooo complaints. Good video here!
I have been enjoying the Turtle Wax 75th wax. I have noticed that it does benefit from a third clean towel buff, which seems to really make the gloss pop. I realize that is a bit more work and not absolutely necessary, but the difference is noticeable.
I used the TW last weekend and found it a little harder to get the wax out of the tin and the removal seeming a little more grabby than the traditional high content carnauba wax I have been using. I did like the results of the TW. On the next application, I might try warming the TW up a bit to see if I can get it to apply a little easier.
Enjoyed the vid great stuff. But I have to ask why you only mention Autoglym and the Turtle Wax at the end when clearly Bilt Hamber did the same if not better job and is half the price of the Turtle Wax?
Built hamber was the better wax here by the look of it and i dont even rate the built hamber as a decent wax tbh I think the turtle wax would fail pretty quickly on a dayly driver Not liking how all the you tubers are wearind the turtle wax t shirts and hats like they have been payed off

Good video. Good comparison. Now to my problem with paste waxes...all of them. A detailer won’t ever use these unless a customer wants them. Paste waxes are for individual enthusiasts who enjoy using them. The spray on/wipe off sealants are 10 times easier to use and will last longer. The other pet peeve I have with all paste waxes are the amount of wax you get. There’s enough for 100 or more applications. You’ll never use that much on your own vehicles and if you’re a detailer...you’ll use the easier products over the paste wax.
Am curious...I'm a driveway enthusiast. Although points made here for paid detailers who are looking for quick/easy/sound job/on to the next car...how many of all the viewers here are actually those paid professionals? No ill will intended certainly but I bet that most of the subscribers and viewers here are casual weekend warriors which are the majority demographic who watch most of the dozens of detailing channels on TH-cam.

Pastes and natural applications still have a solid place if not for the convenience or extended durability but perhaps the Zen of application and the LOOK👈 that it gives one's vehicle. For me the results of Carnuba on my flat red paint is unsurpassed. Great vid - there are STILL a lot of us out there who are at the least curious about this form of application.
You're right, MOST of my viewers are enthusiasts or weekend warriors but from my community interactions on Instagram I know that a decent number of professionals watch my videos too.
@@SpeckyMcSporran am glad to learn that Specky. At the end of the day I reckon we all want whatever and whoever's vehicle that we're working on to look good and stay that way... We all have something to learn here. I enjoy watching from across the pond.👍
Great video - Wax is definitely not dead. Loved the introduction - You had your News at Ten face on. Wanting to try the Turtle Wax but am not seeing much on its longevity, well apart from Detail and the Beasts updates. Keep up the good stuff as you ae always a fav to watch.
Thank you Chris! No, was isn't dead but it's becoming a more niche product compared to the default status that it used to hold. I'll be testing it more in the future 👍
Brilliant results from the TW graphene. Very shocked at the wowos, given its twice the price almost of some of the others aswell. Glad I purchased TW paste yesterday
Great video specky! Some excellent waxes on test there. Bilt Hamber smashing it at the low price point. Turtle Wax looks fantastic. Looking forward to trying mine out in the next few weeks.
I could see myself moving from Fusso Coat to TW as my base sealant when I get to the bottom of my 3-year-old can, in about 10 years or so ☺️. Great comparison.
@@SpeckyMcSporran will the losing side ever recover? 😉 make sure you try the original formula. You will find these two videos interesting th-cam.com/video/R0xloqy-hrI/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/hy5kzSZwVEU/w-d-xo.html
@@SpeckyMcSporran It's in the UK so the shipping is a little stiff...nice wax product, I dont think it last as long as the advertising although it does look sharp..
I don't know where you are but suppliers in Canada just got a fresh batch in stock a couple of days ago. I've been checking everyday for a month in the hope of snagging some.
Nice one Specky. Turtle Wax certainly got the hype train steaming by adding ceramic AND graphene - is that a first? From what I've seen its not a massive amount better than some products which cost considerably less but people will buy it just to try it. The Supergloss is oily and I've found oily waxes easy to apply but have poor durability. Looking forward to your next video already 👍
looks like i need to go for a real world test with the TW and good ol' BH DSW. Shame it didn't really show any noticeable difference on camera between the waxes. It would have been nice to see a wow factor on application. I still think BH is the winner in this test, due to price per ml and number of applications per pot and the same chemical resistance as the winner.
ok guys, I have been an AG user for 25 years now and always been very very happy with the products. I am very content with the UHD but its so darn pricey!!! Now, what would you guys say if I ought to ask which one gives the deepest shine? TW or AG? I am really tempted to try this TW, and this at half the price! I always figured TW a an outdated cardetailing brand, fanatically used in the US. Anyone care to share their experience or thoughts? Tx you lot
Great video. how would you use this in combination with Turtle Wax's Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray Coating. Would you use this one as a topper to the HS Spray Coating? or this one as a base and then top it with the HS Spray Coating?
The HS spray coating takes 24 hours to cure and needs 2 coats to get the best durability, so if you have the time then I'd use the wax as a topper. The question is - how long do you need your protection to last? For time efficiency I'd use the wax as a base and top it regularly with HS quick detailer and it'll always look fresh.
Great job Specky, what would you recommend for a winter survival wax? I've used the Bilt Hamber on my car and the Turtle wax on my wife's car. I'm looking forward to testing the longevity. Any thoughts 👍👍
Thanks Nigel. Bilt Hamber Double Speed Wax is hard to beat for price and performance. Turtle Wax Hybrid Sealant Wax (new name for Sealant Hydrophobic Wax) is incredibly good, fast and easy to use (spray wax) and decent value too. You can layer it too for longer durability.
Ive got the Double Speed and yes it does a cracking job but i prefered the Soft99 Kiwami wax i was using at this time . I wont knock it but on the Nissan I prefered the Soft99 products but then Im a fan of their products
Soft 99 waxes are great and offer exellent value for money I find the built hamber wax to be overated In the detailing comunity tbh the same with sonax bsd which is horrible to apply and remove unless you mix it with another qd Works well mixed 50/50 with car plan no1 gloss
@@thephantomarse8525 BSD has its place , yes its sticky to apply but the water reaction it gives its fantastic . I tend to use BSD as a drying aid rather than a stand alone product
After watching the film. I currently use wowo's 121 and have found the beading really good and water repels from the car on driving. The durability of the graphene interests me. Maybe you could do a long term real world test on it. I hope that stocks become available in the near future.
@@SpeckyMcSporran I was thinking of a real world test on one of the fleet of cars you TH-camrs always seem to have (joking). Scottish weather and salty roads would be a real test. Mind you if we normal people can't buy it there is no point.
Fair point, I would find it hard to do a real world test as I need to test so many products that I'd struggle to keep a single product on the paint for a long time.
Great video , if you have a ceramic sealant on say garage therapy three would you or could you put a wax on top of that for xtra protection? Just wondering why waxes are popular since everyone is ceramic crazy at the moment.
big thing was the Turtle wax vs the Autoglym... just wish they had the UHD shampoo which I missed out on last year...just stinks that i'd have to spend 100$ CDN To get it if I really want to try.
@@SpeckyMcSporran they removed it from the only stores that are authorized to sell, I missed out as I was moving so back in august they pulled Uhd. Yet we still have the ceramic and paste waxes
I already have the AG UHD. and really rate it. As I really like waxing the car staying power is not a concern for me. If your test had shown the TW to be a massive improvement I’d have bought it. Thanks for a good review and thanks for saving me money!!!
I enjoyed this test a lot, and I’m amazed that Collinite 476 did not fare better. It’s still a great wax at the price, and one that I own and enjoy using. It would be great to se a similar format review of «enthusiast» hybrid waxes, that typically look good on dark paint. Collinite 915, Bilt Hamber Finis wax, Poorboy’s world Nattys blue, Soft 99 Authentic premium or Kiwami to name but a few 😀
@@SpeckyMcSporran I’d have thought you’d have included one of the Vonnix waxes you have , I didn’t like that Wowos one at all, I’d imagine using it for a whole car being quite a pain and not lasting very well, I hope you include Vonnix some time in the future
Should include dodo juice supernatural hybrid or any of the poor boys. Although I always do a collinite 476s coat once a year as its tough and tends to outlast all my other waxes
@@SpeckyMcSporran yea. Red isn't a lasting. I uses blue today. White lasts the longest. Supernatural hybrid is somewhere between collitite and poor boys white for lasting
The short answer is no. Check out the channel Forensic Detailing, Jon made a video recently testing that very thing using Fairy Liquid and a few other products.
top notch review. just got my Turtle Wax Hybrid. cant wait to eat it (stuff smells delicious, like bubble gum of some sort) ... i mean, wax the spaceship.
Great test mate turtle wax is a new product yet to be seen in 6 months time it's got to be better then who soft 99 otherwise it a total failure and with both those ingredients in their it should be a lot better what is the durability and life expectancy of bilt hamber I cannot find anywhere with it tells me it lasts so many months a year
Figuring out how long a product lasts is not easy. So many factors change the outcome like where you live, where the car is stored, weather, temperature, humidity, road conditions etc. If you want your protection to last a year then get a ceramic coating.
@@SpeckyMcSporran oh man, you got the same nice jacket 👌 that Sir Jon Delieu had on his video today. Hopefully you can also do a comparison against dodo juice which also has nice paste waxes.
I'm not a detailer so I can't tell you everything but here are a few tips. Learn everything you can, be informed as possible. Manage your customers expectations, don't sell a full paint correction when all they want is a maintenance wash and protection.
@@SpeckyMcSporran thanks for the reply! I've been detailing my own car for years and it's spotless and I feel like I know a lot thanks to the internet. How would you go about getting clients?
Bilt hamber is the clear winner in price and performance. Turtle wax was starting to show weakness towards the end. Autoglym being classed as a luxury wax is an insult to good waxes everywhere.
Bilt hamber would of won hands down in the cheap and nasty waxes it's good for the price yes bilt hamber are a great brand for everything else waxes not in my opinion and AG U H D wax is superior to bilt hamber only in my opinion though 🤔🤣👍
I've been using turtle wax graphene paste wax ever since it was launched and it gives great initial protection and water displacement etc but i have been really disappointed with longevity. I've had 2 weeks max out of it before the water stops beading off and ends up with a flooded panel. I'm in the UK and my car does less than 100 miles per week, quite often in the rain.
How does it behave when you wash it? Flooding can happen simply by water clinging to dirt on the surface of the paint. Waxes and sealants don't stop dirt sticking to the car, they're essentially a sacrificial layer on top of the paint. Protection still requires washing so try that and see if the beading/sheeting returns.
@@SpeckyMcSporran This is flooding after washing using dodo juice born to be mild. I wash once per week no matter the mileage and after 2 washes i lose most beading. I apply using a meguiars applicator sponge pad and buff off with micro fibre after a few minutes. I can't work out whether this is expected behaviour and i'm asking too much from the wax or whether it's just not as good as it should be.
@@SpeckyMcSporran cold water pressure wash, envy care care bubbly jubbly PH neutral snow foam, cold water pressure wash, dodo juice dual bucket hand wash with warm water, cold water pressure wash, dry with meguiars towel (2 of those normally). I normally do a clay bar when the weather starts getting nice which will be soon but not done it for around 6 months or so.
I'm going to guess there's a few things that could be happening. 1 - your wax hasn't bonded properly due to contaminants on the paint that your wash process hasn't removed. 2 - the wax has not cured properly due to temperatures/conditions/time. 3 - the wax has failed somehow in the manufacturing process. I'd recommend using a polish/pre-wax cleanser to remove the wax on a section of the paint and reapply to test the wax again. If it performs better then you'll get a better idea if what might be wrong.
Looked like the built hamber was beating the turtle wax in your chemical test Infinity waxes graphine wax would be a better test against the turtle wax old formula fusso or jayswax extreme for chemical resistance ive not found anything better yet
Actually, this is not a real test. You need to apply all the waxes to the hood of a car and drive it in the elements, leave it parked outside 24/7 in sun, acid rain, etc. let the sun bake in road grime, salt, dirt, etc. Do you weekly washes and leave it parked outside, continue to drive it in rain, dust, hot sun, etc. Then tell us how these waxes held up after 6 months. That’s a real world test.
@@BW-kv9wj I can't get more than 2 weeks out of an application of the TW in the UK before the panels start to flood instead of bead off. I was expecting more if i am honest as I can get the same performance with a spray wax (like megiuars hybrid ceramic spray wax) which obviously takes significantly less time to apply.
Great chemical resistant test Specky and those LED lights in the garage wow what a difference 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Cheers bro! Yeah I'm super pleased with them, so useful for the days I can't film outside 👍
Enjoyed the comparison...So Bilt Hamber was the real winner here as it was performing as well for half the price. 👍🏼
You could certainly look at it that way. The are more videos to come featuring both waxes to push their performance.
I've been a 476S fan boy for many, many years however I've just bought the Turtle Wax Ceramic + Graphene and I'm really looking forward to using it.
It's a decent wax but time has not done it any favours and there are now much easier and longer lasting waxes available. The TW wax is far easier to use.

I think the turtle wax would fail pretty quickly on a dayly driver

@@SpeckyMcSporran yea. Red isn't a lasting. I uses blue today. White lasts the longest. Supernatural hybrid is somewhere between collitite and poor boys white for lasting
Can washing up liquid remove my wax and silicone so it's ready for wash and fresh wax
The short answer is no. Check out the channel Forensic Detailing, Jon made a video recently testing that very thing using Fairy Liquid and a few other products.
Would love to see against Soft99 Fusso coat.
Coming in a future video 👍
You forgot Finish Kare Hi-Temp wax.... its the best on the market!!! It has the shark 🦈 logo on it. Don’t sleep on it!
I didn't forget it, I just don't own it.
top notch review. just got my Turtle Wax Hybrid. cant wait to eat it (stuff smells delicious, like bubble gum of some sort) ... i mean, wax the spaceship.
Great test mate turtle wax is a new product yet to be seen in 6 months time it's got to be better then who soft 99 otherwise it a total failure and with both those ingredients in their it should be a lot better what is the durability and life expectancy of bilt hamber I cannot find anywhere with it tells me it lasts so many months a year
Figuring out how long a product lasts is not easy. So many factors change the outcome like where you live, where the car is stored, weather, temperature, humidity, road conditions etc. If you want your protection to last a year then get a ceramic coating.
Can I apply this graphene+ceramic wax over the "carnauba paste wax" ?
Carnauba wax doesn't last as long so I'd suggest applying the Graphene + ceramic wax first as a base layer and use the Carnauba wax as a topper.
@@SpeckyMcSporran thank you
No problem
hello mr specky can i use the turtle wax 75th as a topper on a coated car
Yes you can 👍
@Lee Francis because i enjoy the work
Excellent comparison video.
New Subscriber! 😊
Thanks so much! 🙌
How was the gloss with the TW?
No complaints
What is that brush you use to apply the soap?
26JPN Ultra soft detailing brush
Great job and comparisons
Thank you sir 🙌
@@SpeckyMcSporran oh man, you got the same nice jacket 👌 that Sir Jon Delieu had on his video today.
Hopefully you can also do a comparison against dodo juice which also has nice paste waxes.
@@1stfrompuertorico568 I've got a couple of Dodo waxes 👍
Bilt hamber for me given its value
More testing to be done soon 🤞
Thinking of starting my own detailing business any advice cheers!
I'm not a detailer so I can't tell you everything but here are a few tips. Learn everything you can, be informed as possible. Manage your customers expectations, don't sell a full paint correction when all they want is a maintenance wash and protection.
@@SpeckyMcSporran thanks for the reply! I've been detailing my own car for years and it's spotless and I feel like I know a lot thanks to the internet. How would you go about getting clients?
Facebook and Instagram is a start. Beyond that I can't say as I'm just an enthusiast and not a professional.
Bilt hamber is the clear winner in price and performance. Turtle wax was starting to show weakness towards the end. Autoglym being classed as a luxury wax is an insult to good waxes everywhere.
I'm still a fan of the AutoGlym UHD wax but I know you have strong opinions about it. More testing to be done 😁
Bilt hamber would of won hands down in the cheap and nasty waxes it's good for the price yes bilt hamber are a great brand for everything else waxes not in my opinion and AG U H D wax is superior to bilt hamber only in my opinion though 🤔🤣👍
Hi Specky, awesome video on the review of the Turtle Wax Ceramic and Graphene paste wax,they all worked well on the test.
Cheers Steven
Crap, I wish you hadn't made this video. I'm a huge fan of Turtle wax and my truck is perfectly waxed right now but I'm eager to try it out!!
Haha sorry not sorry 🤣
I've been using turtle wax graphene paste wax ever since it was launched and it gives great initial protection and water displacement etc but i have been really disappointed with longevity. I've had 2 weeks max out of it before the water stops beading off and ends up with a flooded panel. I'm in the UK and my car does less than 100 miles per week, quite often in the rain.
How does it behave when you wash it? Flooding can happen simply by water clinging to dirt on the surface of the paint. Waxes and sealants don't stop dirt sticking to the car, they're essentially a sacrificial layer on top of the paint. Protection still requires washing so try that and see if the beading/sheeting returns.
@@SpeckyMcSporran This is flooding after washing using dodo juice born to be mild. I wash once per week no matter the mileage and after 2 washes i lose most beading. I apply using a meguiars applicator sponge pad and buff off with micro fibre after a few minutes. I can't work out whether this is expected behaviour and i'm asking too much from the wax or whether it's just not as good as it should be.
Very interesting, I'd expect it to last more than two weeks for sure. How did you prep the paint before applying?
@@SpeckyMcSporran cold water pressure wash, envy care care bubbly jubbly PH neutral snow foam, cold water pressure wash, dodo juice dual bucket hand wash with warm water, cold water pressure wash, dry with meguiars towel (2 of those normally). I normally do a clay bar when the weather starts getting nice which will be soon but not done it for around 6 months or so.
I'm going to guess there's a few things that could be happening. 1 - your wax hasn't bonded properly due to contaminants on the paint that your wash process hasn't removed. 2 - the wax has not cured properly due to temperatures/conditions/time. 3 - the wax has failed somehow in the manufacturing process.
I'd recommend using a polish/pre-wax cleanser to remove the wax on a section of the paint and reapply to test the wax again. If it performs better then you'll get a better idea if what might be wrong.
Looked like the built hamber was beating the turtle wax in your chemical test
Infinity waxes graphine wax would be a better test against the turtle wax
old formula fusso or jayswax extreme for chemical resistance ive not found anything better yet
Great video Specky !
Better get the wallet out 😏🏴🏴
Tell em I sent you haha
Actually, this is not a real test. You need to apply all the waxes to the hood of a car and drive it in the elements, leave it parked outside 24/7 in sun, acid rain, etc. let the sun bake in road grime, salt, dirt, etc. Do you weekly washes and leave it parked outside, continue to drive it in rain, dust, hot sun, etc. Then tell us how these waxes held up after 6 months. That’s a real world test.
I didn't say this was a real world test, this is a resilience test. A long term test might come in the future.
@@SpeckyMcSporran Cool. Cant wait to see the results of that future test. You might be surprised how none of these waxes hold up.
Very true
@@BW-kv9wj I can't get more than 2 weeks out of an application of the TW in the UK before the panels start to flood instead of bead off. I was expecting more if i am honest as I can get the same performance with a spray wax (like megiuars hybrid ceramic spray wax) which obviously takes significantly less time to apply.
@@andyknight8108 May I suggest 303 Graphine spray. It’s the best I’ve tried so far.
Your way behind everyone else dude. 🤣
My way behind everyone else?
Marketing gimmick
🤦🏻♂️
