Great product review for a great product! Put it on my 2013 Infiniti G37 and the car has never been glossier. The hydrophobic qualities with this stuff are amazing. Honestly, I probably wouldn’t have never thought of picking this stuff to try out...but then I saw your video. I value your honesty in these reviews, and when you were “blown away” with everything from the application to the results, that sealed the deal for me. Appreciate all that you do making these videos! And as a retired military veteran, I really appreciate you showing pride in America by flying Old Glory! Keep up the great work!
Willey Smarthome Thank you and thank you for your service! 🇺🇸 It’s a fantastic product as you now know. Glad you liked it as much as I did. It is a clear winner. Old Glory will always fly high at my home and will be protected at all cost.
That Griot's Ceramic 3-in-1 Wax sure did a great job! It reminds me of the Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic Quick Detail Spray. Did you try that one Brian? How does it stack up to the Griot's in your opinion?
I found your page because of Pan The Organizer. He is doing a ridiculous 24 product test on one car and Griot’s 3 in 1 absolutely shocked me so I’ve been watching other videos on this stuff and I am amazed. Based on your experience, early results in Pan’s test and 6 month’s into Scott H’s test, this stuff is legit!
2 months still holding in strong. Great update. This stuff is such a winner. Especially how easy those bugs came off can't ask for much more as you said. A spray wax! Probably one of my favorites so far to use. 👍
I did my wifes car about 8 months ago and I also use the Griot Cermamic Speed wax as a drying add. Still holding up. Never have to use tar and bug remover on this car. Great stuff.
I'm glad that it's working out so good for you! When I used it on my dark gray car I felt that it collected dust quicker. Of course it comes off with a wash but it just seemed to collect it faster (and heavier). With the construction on your road did you notice any affects like that?
Looking good FAB👍 I don't miss living on a dirt road😒 When I was younger & I had my Supra I would drive as slow as possible as to not get the dust on the car but of course it would all get onto the back of the car😠 Great video buddy👍✌🏼
Thanks fab I still used it on all my veh my truck I use it every other washing the beading still wonderful I'm going to wash my truck in awhile great video have a wonderful weekend guys enjoyed thanks again
The more I use this product more I'm impressed. And if the roof is still beading in those hot temperatures after 2 months that super impressive. Great Testament to an awesome product.
My father in law let me borrow his truck today. It's a 2011 and I swear it's never been washed. The hood and the top were super oxidized. I cleaned it and treated it with Griot's and it shines like a new penny. Can't wait to see how it beads water.
Agree 100% Griots nailed it I absolutely love this product. I was just thinking the other day how it was holding up for you. Look forward to the next update. 👍🏻👍🏻🇨🇦
Brain, one of the things I like most about your channel is you always follow update on the products you use. The Griot's 3 in 1 us very impressive especially seeing it hold up on the roof and hood. For you road tripping to Tennessee. You hardly had any bugs a testament to the 3 in 1, and what did stick came off with no effort. I'm going to have to give the Griot's Car Wash try, I like that it has more gloss enhancers or wax.
As to that road, tar and gravel is chip-sealed or Cheap-Sealed by you road taxes. On a bicycle it is a real drag on the legs, not like a great smooth asphalt surface. As to GG new 3-n-1, really good and well priced.
Welcome to the country, had that for many years in the past it’s called tar and chipped. The alternative we had before that was straight gravel, actually a lot of rain after tar and chipped is done is the best for washing road. The 3n1 is simply amazing I’ve got 3 bottles of it and on 2nd one already.
JM Mustangs Yeah I hate it when they do that to the roads. It’s how Indiana fills in roads with a lot of potholes instead of repacking it. Man I am impressed with this stuff.
Hey Brian! Question for ya. I live in the pacific northwest and dont have a garage. Griots claims its best for this product to cure for 12 to 24 hours for max durability. That just isnt possible for me. I can apply and keep it dry for about 8 hours until the fog rolls in. What kind of longevity should i expect to see without proper dry cure times?
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing ok sweet deal. So im probably at around 5 to 6 months since I still do 2 coats, just without a dry cure time. But im not fooling anyone, ill still do a coat every month lol. Thanks sir!
Living in the north GA mtns, I get it! 😁 🤣 We have had tons of rain as well & living on 5 acres with a long dirt rd. is rough trying to keep a clean ride! Nice update hun..
its like getting a free car wash. my car sat in the driveway for two days collecting dust. it then poured rain non-stop. I come home from work with my hooptie. the sun had come out and dried the car. the car was clean with no water spots. good stuff
What’s up brian great info I just applied it to my jeep a month ago and I’m having the same luck with it awesome product!! Have u stacked it at all with like a turtle wax ceramic detailer?
Nice! Super glad the durability is lasting for you! Question: when you wash in your garage, do you get a lot of water overspray on your cabinets and stuff on the walls? Do you find yourself having to go wipe them down? Great video FAB!
The griots 3in1 is holding up great, we have that tar and chip on the roads here in Ireland and it's horrible on the cars, great video as always brian 👌👌👌👌
I've been using Fusso topped with BSD on a regular basis. The 3 in 1 seems to be a fine competition but nothing I've seen is as hydrophobic as the Fussl+BSD combo. It's a great barrier against contamination. I think this is a point being missed on longevity tests. So the LSP resists water and chemicals, how about contamination? After 18 months of using my combo on a daily driver in England the car had tiny amounts of fall-out and did not need claying before polishing the car. That's what really matters to me.
JWL You are right and that also matters. Time will tell how well this protects against contaminants but seeing how the bugs didn’t stick I think it might do a great job.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing thanks for replying mate! Hope you and your family are well and in good spirits despite the challenging times! My favourite "hack" for the ultimate interior class cleaning is Adam's Brilliant Glaze. That stuff cuts through layers of grime and contaminants in one go and makes subsequent cleaning very easy. My go-to glass cleaner used to be Stoner then I tried Gyeon Prep and it's freaking awesome! I wish you did a video on how to do a light restoration/uplifting on aged leather seats. I bought me a 2008 Audi TT with cream leather last month to be my second car. The seats were in decent condition but very very dry and with some light cracks, wear marks and imperfections. Cleaning and nurturing really helped but this weekend I tried the inexpensive Doctor Scratch's Colour Restore Balm and it's an unbelievably good product. Products are made in the UK and they offer tons of colours that match the OEM leather colours. Really worth a look and this could be a great theme to explore. Take care.
I was wanting to try a ceramic product. I happened to see a bottle of Griot's 3 in 1 at Advance and said "What the hell." I ahve always tried to keep my vehicles looking nice and always waxed them. My go-to wax was Formula 1 paste wax. I get it cheap through work and it was easy on and off. I should have stripped that all off but I was too anxious to put it on my Barcelona Red '17 Toyota 4Runner. after doing a little test section. Holy crap does this stuff ever make things shine! After a coupe months in Michigan of many rain (and even snow) days, 3 trips through the local drive-thru was, it still beads off like crazy. I love how you can not worry about it hazing black trim but it enhances it! I used it on the glass too. It seems to have worn off that some but still does good. I had it on my workbench when I started messing with some older Hot Wheels cars (I am a collector). Another "What the hell" moment. I was amazed at what it did to old and new ones! This is an amazing product. I am a big user of 303 Products and I see they have released a ceramic-based coating too. I love their protectants nad other interior care products. I will probably be checking that product out in the Spring.
I just discovered this Griot's 3 In 1 late May, I applied one coat with amazing gloss. I just winterized my vehicle with two coats. I have been hearing about sealants this time of year. I purchased some Jescar Bead It. I just applied one topper coat to a 2-week-old, two coat application of Griot's 3-in-1. Bead It added even more gloss! I'll put away the buffing towel for another time. In the future I think I will do one coat Griots and top with one coat of Bead It.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing ha! Awesome! I applied this to my car yesterday and I cannot get it off the hood and some other areas. The hood looks terrible. Obviously, I screwed it up. Any ideas. I guess to describe it, it looks streaky.
Thanks. I watched it again and caught the part about decontamination and polishing. That oil and rocks used to be used in Phoenix AZ. We called it chip-seal. I think the city got tired of replacing so many windshields.
Hi! My son just got a 2011 subaru WRX that he is infatuated with! I would like to buy him some products to take care of the car! What would u suggest? We live in NH! (He clay barred it but it needs some help!)
Keri Thompson Griots makes some awesome products that you can buy in local Autoparts stores. It really depends on how bad it is and if he wants to use a polisher. Griots BOSS Polishes are fantastic but they are online only on Griots website.
This is what I think. If your car is dirty the car knows that. But when the car is clean it feel so much better and it runs better and save you on your gas mileage cause the car is happy.HOOF OUT!!!
Brian, Living in the country has its benefits but as it's negatives. Fortunately the pluses out number the negatives. Seems like a good product? What other line of products does Griots have for their ceramic line? Polish? Wax? Detailer, Rinseless Wash, Boosters?
I use griots best of show detailer when my car just needs a touch up. How often do you use the ceramic 3n1 wax? Would I replace the best of show with the 3n1? Thank you
TheLosiracer I have o my used it once for this durability test. If I wasn’t doing a durability test I would just reapply when it looks like it is starting to fade. This does not replace Best of Show Detailer because it’s not a quick Detailer.
I use turtle wax what do I need to do to start using this product.... question I vape and it leaves a film on the windshield what is the best way to get it clean because it smears..
Just prep the surface by washing and de contaminating it. As far as the glass is concerned you will just need a good glass cleaner like Griots Foaming Glass cleaner.
I couldn't agree more! I applied this to a brand-new car a few months ago and it has been holding up phenomenally well. The car got really really dirty when my neighbor's roof gutter blew off during a storm and spewed muddy water all over my white car. It really looked like I had been off roading. About three days later it rained and the next morning the car looked like I had washed it, that's how clean it was! Griots said you can apply a light topcoat after each wash or two. Since it goes on and off pretty much like a detail spray, I do it routinely. It's so easy.
I don’t have water plumbed into the garage other wise I would have a wall mounted pressure washer. I have used Kranzle pressure washers many time and they are good.
I have been wanting to us this product but, was waiting for your update video. Currently I am using turtle wax seal n shine (new formula) and am really impressed with it, of the those two protectants which do you feel is better?
I too love the stuff. I used it on my wife;s car befre she went on a long road trip. When she got back, the grime just washed right off with little effort. PS< I also use it on my push lawn mower. Grass and gunk just wash right off woth a hose.
I love this stuff for my 2020 Volvo V60 CC. I just picked up 2 more bottles. I use a detailer in between no touch car washes. I've had it just over a year now, it looks brand new still.
Looks great 👍👍. put the twhs on my daughter's black metallic caravan 6 months ago it truly is like the day I put it on. I did do a full correction on it
I use this on my daily driver and maintain with the Yellow bottom turtle wax quick ceramic wax during maintenance wash as drying aid. Lasting quite awhile. Did it in April still looks like I just did it.
MrRtc555 All in ones would not work as they would leave protection behind. I use Griot’s Garage Perfecting Cream with a soft foam pad like the yellow Perfecting Cream pads.
I was wondering if there is going be Griot's event in October in Indy this year ? I live over in Trenton Ohio and want to attend. Griot's did a nice job on this product.
I did my truck approximately two months ago with this same product. I've also found that two months later, it still holds up pretty well on the doors and the sides of the vehicle, but the hood seems to be lacking a little bit. Best thing to do is to use a detail spray to help keep it boosted between applications.
mills271 I have noticed that also. I would use a topper but when doing a durability test on a single product I can’t do that otherwise it messes with the results.
I tried it on my new ram 1500. I live in AZ where is very hot in summer. I applied in Aprile. Did may be 4 car washes. In June I have noticed it was fading. And probably 30-40 % gone. after that then went on vacation. Came back in the beginning of the August and product completely gone. I would say for me it lasted about 2 -3 month. I just wanted to try until it dies completely and I did🙂. I would suggest probably reapply after 2 month. After that it will start fading. And of course ot depends where you live and where car parked. My was parked outside whole summer. This is reason why it's fading faster
Applied the 3 in 1 ceramic to my new 2020 f150 sport 1 week after getting it. Although you told me to polish when I msged you I just use a clay bar and applied so far a month later and it still looks good. I rinse my truck almost daily since it get birds droppings at work and the water still beads up great
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing it is we had some really heavy rain last week and the water was just flying off. and its was thanks to your video that I purchased it to begin with
Loving the results. I get the same results out of all my customer cars. Love the saucony shoes by the way. I have a pair that i use just for detailing that look like those your wearing. Keep up great work FAB.
Great review again and imo you get a solid 2 months of something you just spray on wipe off it’s a no brainer to use this stuff because you can easily add another coat in 15 minutes if needed. 2 months and that journey is beeding like day 1!
You can’t just wash it and apply another coating of it though. I mean, you could, but how well is that going to hold up, when you don’t properly prep the surface again? If you don’t mind applying it every month or two then I suppose that’s fine 🤷♂️
PR M5 I have not used a drying aid with it as I don’t want to mess up the durability test. I think Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Wet Wax would be a perfect drying aid for it.
The hydrophobic's are very bad. I live 5 minutes from the Griots main store in Tacoma. They wanted me to test it, I said no thank you. The water really wanted to stay put in your video.
Great product review for a great product! Put it on my 2013 Infiniti G37 and the car has never been glossier. The hydrophobic qualities with this stuff are amazing.

I use turtle wax what do I need to do to start using this product.... question I vape and it leaves a film on the windshield what is the best way to get it clean because it smears..
Just prep the surface by washing and de contaminating it. As far as the glass is concerned you will just need a good glass cleaner like Griots Foaming Glass cleaner.
I couldn't agree more! I applied this to a brand-new car a few months ago and it has been holding up phenomenally well.
The car got really really dirty when my neighbor's roof gutter blew off during a storm and spewed muddy water all over my white car. It really looked like I had been off roading. About three days later it rained and the next morning the car looked like I had washed it, that's how clean it was!
Griots said you can apply a light topcoat after each wash or two. Since it goes on and off pretty much like a detail spray, I do it routinely. It's so easy.
AdamIsAdam That is great to hear. It’s a fantastic product and so user friendly.
I’m going to make a huge recommendation for you… Get yourself a Kranzle pressure washer.
I don’t have water plumbed into the garage other wise I would have a wall mounted pressure washer. I have used Kranzle pressure washers many time and they are good.
I agree, very good product. But dang, are you a griot's spokesperson? Just wondering 🤷♂️
Nope I’m not I just like their products.
If you were not doing a pure durability test, what kind of toppers would you consider using? Their BOS detailer? Or spray wax maybe
I would use their Ceramic Speed Shine.
I have been wanting to us this product but, was waiting for your update video. Currently I am using turtle wax seal n shine (new formula) and am really impressed with it, of the those two protectants which do you feel is better?
Boss 987 Unfortunately I have not tried the the Seal and Shine so I can’t speak to that. This is a great product though.
I too love the stuff. I used it on my wife;s car befre she went on a long road trip. When she got back, the grime just washed right off with little effort. PS< I also use it on my push lawn mower. Grass and gunk just wash right off woth a hose.
Mark Puffer Glad you are seeing the same results I am.
I love this stuff for my 2020 Volvo V60 CC. I just picked up 2 more bottles. I use a detailer in between no touch car washes. I've had it just over a year now, it looks brand new still.
It is a really good product! The new Ceramic Speed Shine would be great too it with!
Looks great 👍👍. put the twhs on my daughter's black metallic caravan 6 months ago it truly is like the day I put it on. I did do a full correction on it
eds1990sporty Thanks! Glad you are liking the hybrid solutions line.
I use this on my daily driver and maintain with the Yellow bottom turtle wax quick ceramic wax during maintenance wash as drying aid. Lasting quite awhile. Did it in April still looks like I just did it.
Chris Atchley It’s always great hearing people seeing the same results I am.
Is this a replacement for traditional wax (Collinite 845) or does it with in conjunction with it?
It can be used as a standalone so yes. It can also be used as a topper to coatings.
Can you tell us what light polish you used or would recommend before using a product like this? Would an all in one work? Thanks!
MrRtc555 All in ones would not work as they would leave protection behind. I use Griot’s Garage Perfecting Cream with a soft foam pad like the yellow Perfecting Cream pads.
Hey man 🙋♂️
For Adam's polishes interior detailer with microban ?
Have you tried
Thanks
Hennessy * What’s up brother? I have not used it but I do like their regular Interior Detailer.
Can I just keep adding the 3-1 every 4 weeks to keep adding layers of protection?
You could but it might start looking hazy as it builds up. I would wait atleast 2-3 months before adding it again.
Great video. Man I tell you maybe I should have used the griots vs turtle wax. Question could you also use carpro reset vs the griots products?
Bee Jay Thanks! Yes you can Reset to wash it.
I was wondering if there is going be Griot's event in October in Indy this year ? I live over in Trenton Ohio and want to attend. Griot's did a nice job on this product.
Functional Doc I would guess there won’t be this year due to COVID. Yes they did it is a great product.
Ahh man they’re hammering your roads with chip and seal too huh that’s the worse!! GG still holding up like a champ!!
Isaac Wagner Man I hate it!! Yes it is holding up strong.
Ah, the old..."What had happened was...," eh?
😂
One of my favorite lines! 😂
I did my truck approximately two months ago with this same product. I've also found that two months later, it still holds up pretty well on the doors and the sides of the vehicle, but the hood seems to be lacking a little bit. Best thing to do is to use a detail spray to help keep it boosted between applications.
mills271 I have noticed that also. I would use a topper but when doing a durability test on a single product I can’t do that otherwise it messes with the results.
Another great vid and glad you showed it 2 months in as been debating to buy this. Hope you and the family are well.
Phil Bloomer Thank you! We are doing great!
I tried it on my new ram 1500. I live in AZ where is very hot in summer. I applied in Aprile. Did may be 4 car washes. In June I have noticed it was fading. And probably 30-40 % gone. after that then went on vacation. Came back in the beginning of the August and product completely gone. I would say for me it lasted about 2 -3 month. I just wanted to try until it dies completely and I did🙂. I would suggest probably reapply after 2 month. After that it will start fading. And of course ot depends where you live and where car parked. My was parked outside whole summer. This is reason why it's fading faster
Did you apply 2 coats? It last between 2-3 months just one coat.
@@richardfox3924 just one coat :)
Have you ever tried dura coating
The last three vehicles I detailed, I used the Griots 3 n 1. Product is awesome and customers are wowed
Dale Smith That’s awesome!
I love the Griot Garage product 💪💪💪💪🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
Federico Gomez Me too! 😉
The last three vehicles I detailed, I used the Griots 3 n 1 with amazing results. Customers were wowed.
Dale Smith That does not surprise me it’s a clear winner!
I use it on my audi a6 wheels for brake dust and it just washes off now.
That’s great to hear especially on wheels since they get hotter then paint.
Thanks for the update. Are you still using the Karcher power washer?
Corey G You are welcome! Yes I love the Karcher but I didn’t use it in this video.
Applied the 3 in 1 ceramic to my new 2020 f150 sport 1 week after getting it. Although you told me to polish when I msged you I just use a clay bar and applied so far a month later and it still looks good. I rinse my truck almost daily since it get birds droppings at work and the water still beads up great
John Siegfried That’s awesome to hear! The Hydrophobic’s are great with it.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing it is we had some really heavy rain last week and the water was just flying off. and its was thanks to your video that I purchased it to begin with
Gonna try this out on my charger this week. Nice journey!
It’s great stuff. Thanks
How about powerlock+ & collinite 845 vs ceramic 3in1 for color depth and durability?
neal butler I have not used those products. Sorry I can’t speak to that but have heard they are an awesome combo.
Ok cool I'll give griots a try
That is very impressive. I have a bottle but I have not been able to try it yet.
Chris Murphy Oh man you will love it when you do.
Griot’s 3-1 is looking like a winner! Thanks for the update.
Ryan Mulhearn It’s definitely a winner!
I'm debating on this or 303 grafine spay
I have used both and you can’t go wrong with either.
Looks great. Can’t ask for more than this. Thanks. Take care.
G17 I agree 💯! Thanks brother
Nice update video brian the Journey was hammered
Carlos Lopez Thanks brother and yes it was.
I heard the last coat ceramic spray wax is #1 rite now.
lilart13ab I don’t know about that as I ha e not tried The Last Coat. I have heard good things about it though.
Great durability. Can’t believe it’s already been two months!
Chris W Time flies when your having fun!
This is good news. I committed to it and applied it to 3 vehicles so far. I need durability out of it.
gambietti For a spray product to last just 2 months it a a winner in y book. You can reapply in not time when needed.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing I have a feeling it will last longer. Good product
Loving the results. I get the same results out of all my customer cars. Love the saucony shoes by the way. I have a pair that i use just for detailing that look like those your wearing. Keep up great work FAB.
Patrick Ramirez I have like 4 pairs of these shoes all different colors and for different things I am doing. 😂 Thank you
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing thank you again for the info on the griots sealant
Patrick Ramirez You are welcome!
Awesome man!! Prolly gonna pick up a bottle this weekend👍🏼👍🏼
MNpicker Thanks! You will not be disappointed.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing Nice!! I do appreciate the honesty 😎👍🏼
MNpicker Absolutely!!
Way to go! LOVE the follow-ups as much as the product testing itself!
Shine Your Light Detailing Thank you!
Can you apply it to glass
John Yes you can but i didn’t.
Looking good 😉
Kyle Marx Yes it is!
Greet review👍
Kyle D Thank you!
Great review again and imo you get a solid 2 months of something you just spray on wipe off it’s a no brainer to use this stuff because you can easily add another coat in 15 minutes if needed. 2 months and that journey is beeding like day 1!
JM Mustangs I agree 💯! For the price and results it’s definitely a no brainer.
You can’t just wash it and apply another coating of it though. I mean, you could, but how well is that going to hold up, when you don’t properly prep the surface again? If you don’t mind applying it every month or two then I suppose that’s fine 🤷♂️
Bought this and Mother's ceramic too. Both are great. The Mother's works great on glass.
buddy morgan That’s good to know! Thanks
What do you recommend to use as a drying aid while using this ceramic wax?
PR M5 I have not used a drying aid with it as I don’t want to mess up the durability test. I think Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Wet Wax would be a perfect drying aid for it.
The hydrophobic's are very bad. I live 5 minutes from the Griots main store in Tacoma. They wanted me to test it, I said no thank you. The water really wanted to stay put in your video.
Reflective Auto Detailing The water just comes right off. I’m not sure what you mean.
