Thank you for supporting the channel and I’m looking forward to many more product test reviews in the future. Looking forward to reading your comments. Best regards, Todd
Great video stay safe
you should test f11 spray wax
just sold out of it :(
I want to see you put F11 to those tests!!
f11 topcoat is another one id be curious to see if its worth it.
The only TH-camr on the internet who I trust with doing the non bias reviews of the products. I love it.
Thanks so much!
Project Farm for comprehensive comparisons and AvE for power tools, the two guaranteed independent folks out there!
I would be extremely curious if any company ever offered him a cash incentive to give a biased review although!?
If you like seeing comparisons of these types of products you should check out The Forensic Detailing Channel. He's extremely thorough and has no bias towards any cleaning products or brand.

Project Farm doin a better job than half the detailers on TH-cam. He sharpied the car for the benefit of us! Project Farm, you’re a consumer’s hero. Words don’t pay the bills, but I appreciate it.
Thanks so much!
He should start a detailing channel. Lol "best waxes for tractors"
Qqqqqqq
Heck, the majority of detailers are selling you something. They do too much talking and begging for subscribers.
The best part of Monday is Project Farm.
Thank you very much!
Amen to that!
Yeah i think this is the only channel of my subscriptions that uploads one Mondays. Works out perfect for me!
Mondays are the best with Project Farm.
Highlight of the week you mean
I know this is an older video, but I just wanted to say that I have used Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions on my vehicles, since viewing this (a year ago) and it is an incredible! It lasts an extremely long time and makes the finish of the vehicle feel very soft and slick. It seems to even repel dust. I told my friends, and they are using it too. Keep up the great work. It is appreciated!
Thanks, will do!
It really is great, and it even does a pretty good job at hiding very minor swirling on my car.
Agreed. The turtle wax spray does seem to last longer than the Meguiars product in my experience. Especially after rain, & in normally sunny conditions here in Australia. Beautiful shine too!
*thank you PF, bought both because of this video!
I just started using it on my car, and I'm super impressed. Definitely worth it for $15
I have been using Meguiars for a long time and so far I have not found anything better. If you have a car the size of a matchbox, then you can use any protective coating, because it’s not a very big job to put a new coating, and if you have a truck or a huge van, you won’t find better Meguiars because in order to update the protection layer All you have to do is spray onto wet surfaces and rinse with water. And this advantage cannot be beaten by any of the considered coatings. Meguiars the best
Product CEO's worst nightmare, hearing PF saying "We're going to test that" while reading the advertising label. Great vids PF.
Thanks so much!
Project farm out here doing the work consumer reports should be doing, and making it available to us for free.
Dude i love your videos. thank you so much for all you do!
You are welcome!
I’ve had a subscription to CR for almost 20 years. This year I didn’t renew because the real world reviews on TH-cam are more valuable and informative.
I still have a CR subscription but PF is hitting the more useful products..... Great work
Consumer reports are paid off by lobbyist like politicians are
Project farmers giving consumer reports to run for their money.
Your real world testing setups are very good and produce results that you can expect when using the products.
As a result of your testing and results I use that to make my next purchase of the products.
As an engineer we like to see numbers and you provide real data to real testing.
20 years ago as an auto detailer I established Mothers as one of the best. Have used on my personal vehicles ever since. Thanks to this video, yesterday I tried the hybrid solutions product. Wow! Turtle wax hybrid solutions has taken over Mothers as my new go-to! Excellent vid. Succinct, thorough and very thoughtfully arranged. You provide all the info we need, nothing we don’t. Your channel stands as an example of how to present great content on TH-cam. Thank you for all the work you put in to help your viewers a become little bit smarter for every vid we watch.
Thanks so much!
Personally I love any meguire product but ima going to try that turtle wax hybrid too
KelMaster Construction it will its one of the best as far as beading but itll still get dirty and still wont clean well in auto car wash
I do mean the touchless car wash that you drive into and sit in car while it washes but i realize they dont clean the dirt off the paint very well. I just mean that with the turtle wax stuff on the paint you would think the dirt would wash off more easily but it doesnt. I just thought the dirt wouldnt stick to the paint as well but seems about the same. Sry for the confusion
grdnjmsn
- agree with you completely. I've watched way to many 20+ minute videos with only 5 minutes of relevant content.
I love your non-sense style! Thank you for taking the time to go through the effort. :)
You are welcome!
Oh shit! Chef JP
So crazy to see one of my favorite TH-camrs commenting on another one of my favorite TH-camrs videos of a totally different genre! I love both of you guys! Hello from a year later lol!
"Non-sense" style? Did you mean "No nonsense"? Or does he have no sense?
Dude, you’re producing the best content TH-cam has ever had. Please keep it going the way you do now. Lot of admiration and respect for your amazing work. Greatest regards from Germany!
I appreciate that!
AND he keeps getting better. :D
Congratulations, if you'd have told me a few years ago I would excitedly be clicking on a car wax vs. ceramic spray test video instead of going to bed I wouldn't have believed it. Love the channel and has been a blast to watch it grow from less than 100k subs when I first found you.
Thank you very much! The positive feedback means a lot!
@Project Farm: I bought the Turtle HS Wet Wax because of your test. I applied yesterday and today I tested it because there was light rain and i needed to drive a bit. I say you were right. This is a very good product I’m fully satisfied with it! I’m glad that you tested a product that I can buy in Hungary too. 😅
I personally use the Hybrid Solutions ceramic wax. Stuff is great. For it to last the longest, make sure to put on one layer, wait 24 hours then put on another layer. Stuff lasts for about a year. Glad to see I made the right choice!
Great information. Thank you
Same here been using it since spring, true test will be this winter.
Does it do anything for swirling in the paint?
@@albundy7239 I use a polish for swirls before using Hybrid Solutions.
Al Bundy maybe light swirles. You probably shouldn’t put it on swirled paint because if you ever want to polish your paint it’s hard to get off.
Something about the way this man delivers information. As someone with ADHD, the way your voice shifts slightly from bit to bit, keeps me focused. Well done. I wish you were my high school teacher!
Thanks for watching. Nice compliment, thank you.
I always imagine the product engineers for the winning companies throwing a "nasa style" celebration after taking home the gold in these tests. All the effort you put into these trials and videos is more appreciated than i think you will ever know. The mass majority of us work very hard to make our livings, and it is absolutely fantastic to have such great information about the products we spend our hard earned money on with high expectations from the claims the products make. Thankfully for us, we now have you Project Farm to prove whether their claims are justified, or crap. Thank you!
You are welcome!
And the marketing department nervously biting their nails during the testing!
Some of us are pretty disconnected from work. It's not healthy to care too much about work.
@@valuedcustomer94384 yeah in some cases id agree. However, if your work is something you are passionate about in life, then is it unhealthy? Id argue the opposite. Its healthy to find pride in what you do and how you provide for yourself / your family.
@@kylewellman402 Passion is great but I think a lot of people form a personal identity that is then deeply associated with work. I've seen people fall apart after they get fired or laid off, which will eventually happen.
That purple power was powerful, I’d love to see a degreaser comparison.
Thanks for the video idea.
@@ProjectFarm If you do one on de-greasers make sure to test some stuff called Challenger.
@bobwatters, I think they're the same but yes, I agree. We've always used Super Clean, that stuff works awesome !!
We use purple power at our shop, it’s very potent, I think Ardex makes it
We use some sort of orange-colored stuff at work, it's impressive.
I found myself in an "I need project farm immediately" situation the other day. I was stuck out in a yard with an unreliable chainsaw. Chainsaw chains/ chainsaw everything in general is a great topic. Thanks for your videos man.
You are welcome!
Chainsaws don't have blades. They have guide bars and sawchain.
@@bubbafudpucker397 yeah that
@@bubbafudpucker397 thank you for being pedantic.
Coat the inside of a cylinder with hybrid solutions and run both it and a control engine without oil and see if there is a difference in time to seize up
You just want to see him destroy another lawn mower engine don't you? LOL
@@benkeysor7576 I do! That was my first video of his
Thanks for the suggestion.
That would probably burn off before reaching operating temp.
@@momurderah But how would we know for sure if he doesn't try it. ;)
I really love how you haven't sold out to a sponsor. I can really appreciate that. Keep up the good work my man!
Thank you!
I never thought I'd see a Brazilian waxing done on this channel.
lol
not what i was expecting but oh well lol
Now that, my good man/woman, is funny!
I can watch paint dry with PF and it'll still be interesting.
Thanks so much!
i'm pretty sure he already made that video, lol.
@@theghostofthomasjenkins9643 He made a couple of them. He tested both paint and painter's tape.
Lmfao “we tested that “.
@@Dyrtbag68 yeah, what Cock Fox said.
The split screen was a great way to show the results.
Ingenious work.
Seen lots of these comparisons. I don't trust them due to the fact they're pushing their own product.
Farm Project is the only reliable source of real world news. 😄
Excellent work 👍
Thanks so much!
Usually when I watch these kinds of tests, I'm saying things like, "But you didn't account for this, or you overlooked that!" Hasn't happened at all with your testing procedures. I really admire how thorough you are, and how you always seem to go the extra mile to ensure fairness. Keep up the great work!
Thanks, will do!
Looks like Turtlewax are clawing back their reputation. The brand went stale for a while but the new stuff seems to be getting some good reviews!
Great point! I was really, really impressed with it. They've received some less than positive reviews from me in the past but definitely a great product this time.
@@ProjectFarm Thanks for your thorough reviewing as well!
@@ProjectFarm I've purchased the Turtle Wax Ice Seal and Shine after many positive reviews online. Seems to be the best in its price point and beats more expensive products
A lot of Turtle Wax's new lines are relatively decent products but they still have a reputation to rebuild for sure.
I think the biggest thing going for Turtle Wax at the moment is the car detailing communities actually trying the products out and recommending their newer lines.
Turtle Wax products were never really on my radar but I've had really good luck with their chrome polish. I might give their ceramic spray a try at some point.
love that side by side video of "before chemicals" and after... really shows how well the products work. Most products do a great job initially but fail over time, washes, and exposure to the elements. Would be interested to see you do a traditional ceramic coating test to see if there is any benefit to spending more money for different brands of ceramic coating. I did a test like that and didn't find any difference between brands, but you do much more thorough and in depth testing than I do.
Thanks so much!
“According to the instructions, do not use on exterior car surfaces... Lets do it anyways and see what happens!” Another great video!
Thanks
HAHAHA Right?! I loved that line.
I can verify it removes paint like a mofo. Used it to clean my nasty white truck. It screws clear coat like hell
I use Turtle Wax Ceramic on my new semi, had surprisingly good reviews for its cost. Was fueling the truck when the hose slipped out of the tank spraying the side of my truck on its way to the ground. This normally would require a truckwash, but the diesel beaded and slid down the side of the truck with minimal cleanup. Never had a wax do that!
Impressive!
What steps did you follow before applying since it was new truck ?
@@jaimebedolla989
Went over it with the clay bar like recommended.
Your videos helped me through my depression. Everyday after work I watch alot of your videos! Been with you since you first started. Glad your growing! Keep up the good work.
Thanks for being a faithful viewer through the years! The best to you!
Project Farm your welcome! Good seeing someone who is authentic and creative!
I never would have imagined these results, you have saved me a lot of time and money, I thank you and my truck thanks you too.
You are welcome! Glad to help!
Same here, I thought turtle Wax was cheap and cheerful until this video, keep up the good work 👍
With all these dirty rags I’d like to see a laundry detergent comparison!
Thanks for the video idea.
Seconded!
@@ProjectFarm Speaking of detergent, maybe a test on grease removers for hand washing, I recall that there was a gritty orange scented solution that should work.
@@eugenetswong grease and oil stains on work clothes is what I would like to see
This would be good. I many microfibre towels that have been used for polishing that would be nice to clean
Among many great things about these videos, in addition to how thorough and well thought out they are is that Todd is clearly having fun. Another bonus is no politics. We can all have fun watching and learning without the desire to cut each others throats if we disagree.
As a detailer, I thought this video would be misleading or not accurate to real life abuse. But this test was extremely well done and very thorough. If you look at Adams polishes, you'll find a LOT of great durable products. Same with the new line from Turtle Wax. The game has definitely changed for the better.
Thanks so much!
Project Farm's hellish tests are why I'm subscribed. lol
I'm honestly surprised at how well Turtle did in this compared to their past products.
Turtle Wax has up'd their game over the last year or so (the Ice line of products is VERY good...even to the pros). However, he did get some help from gravity on the slickness test with the sponge/plate on a couple of the products (Ethos almost fell).
@@jeremiahbachmann3901 May have to try them again. I last used turtle wax a decade ago and it worked... less than advertised.
Quality of content on this channel has gone up amazingly. I work at an auto parts store, and now I know what to recommend to people. Thanks for all the hard work!
You are welcome!
219 people don't appreciate how thorough this man's testing methods are!
No subjective opinions just testing and reviewing the data. I love it!
Appreciate it!
yall need to watch ONR Detailing News to see some actual detailing product reviews
It's the Mothers company employees!
They’re just jealous because they learned the hard way and didn’t watch his videos first. Lol
I believe I left a similar comment on another video related to this, but here goes again. I first used a ceramic coating on my 2013 RAV4 last April, as I was tired of having wax coatings wear away too easily. Was very impressed with the results from the get go. Come late October, I wanted to protect the paint during another Maine winter. Well...the coating was still beading up water like it did in April. Heck, maybe summers were not too bad on the coating. I did a quick recoat anyway, and wished for the best. This past weekend...two days ago, 6 months after the recoat...I gave my RAV4 a nice, spring cleaning, inside and out. The ceramic from October looked like it had just been applied!! This is after a relatively mild Maine winter, but still...lots of snow, cold and salt spray from the roads. What I used last April, and still do, was the Turtle Wax one you had as number one. In a real world 'test', your results were confirmed! Thank you Todd...my 10 year old RAV4 looks awesome! As one more comment...do not skip the clay bar step. You will not believe the crud that it picks up that you can't even see normally.
You are welcome! Thanks for sharing!
Hybrid Solutions is a game changer, switched to the ceramic stuff from Turtle Wax Seal and shine. As always great video!
Thanks for sharing.
@@ProjectFarm @MastaFlash13 The interesting thing about this comment is most people in the car 'detailing scene' are moving to Turtle Wax Seal & Shine (improved formula / yellow stripe on bottle)
There is a video talking directly with the chemist and marketing heads of turtle wax. Seal and Shine does have SiO2 in it. The new formula adds UV protection and less streaking. But still consider the “ceramic” branded bottle to be slightly better. This is from Turtle Wax real world results may differ.
@@BillSwearingen Turtle Wax was a big name that fell off so much that they've been laughed at. But in the last 2 years they've revitalised their lineup and some of their products offer absolutely brilliant results for very little money. I remember trying out their Spray Sealant & Dry 'n' Shine products last year and I was blown away at the value for money it offered. And then their new range somehow bested that yet again.
Daniel Hammer @ Sounds to me like the one you are saying is better,would be the last one you use to treat the final treatment/seal
after the seal and shine one?
Before watching this I was procrastinating about buying a ceramic spray after a convincingly enticing ad caught my attention while on instagram. After watching this I IMMEDIATELY deleted it from my cart and got the turtle wax hybrid solutions!!! DUDE you made me dodge a bullet!!
Glad to hear! Thanks for sharing.
I used the TW Hybrid product six months ago on two brand new cars and can confirm it holds up extremely well. I did the recommended 2-step application. Applied the first coat, parked the car in the garage for 24 hours, then applied a second coat. NOTHING sticks to this stuff. Super slick. Thanks for sharing, Project Farm. Tip: use it on everything. Glass, plastic, wheels. Everything except the tires ;-)
You are welcome! Thanks for the feedback.
How long did the ceramic last you on the 2 step process?
For my ride - Thoroughly washed, twice - I then Nano Skin (clay bar) twice, using their Glide spray, then thoroughly washed twice again then thoroughly dried the car with a car drier. Then Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Sprayed three times and let it cure in the garage for 24 hours between coats and the paint gleams/sparkles like you might not believe. Yes, it was a lot of work, it gets washed each weekend with no loss of the ''sparkle'' since Xmas 2019. It gets driven and parked in the sun every day and under a carport at night. The paint is white which is a hard colour to get a ''wet'' look. When parked at a shopping centre it gets regular looks (I suppose because of the shine) by people walking by. Again, it was a lot of work but the effort and time was more than well worth it.
Thanks to Project Farm for the video and to confirm I made the right choice.
You are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
I watch a lot of testing and comparison videos and I've got to tell you that yours are by far the best. Straight to the point, no BS, very well engineered experiments that measure unbiased results and a no nonsense compilation of the data at the end of the video. You're quite the scientist. Keep up the good work!
Yeah I rely on his recommendations only! The scientific way he goes about his tests are great and completely unbiased. I respect how much time and effort he uses some of his projects take weeks or months even.
@@davidamoritz Yeah, he claims to be a farmer but I think he secretly works at Los Alamos as a nuclear physicist.
@@michaelcangley1868 nope betting on a bored alien 👽 🤣🤣🤣
Project Farm used a permanent marker on his car, just to make his presentation better. Amazing!
I was impressed at how well the permanent market held up to all the washings.
@@billybeemus3929 The Purple Power finally got the marker residue off.
@Project Farm. Thanks Todd for another great test. I hope that marker writing came off the hood of the car. Or was that a rental car? Did you buy the extra insurance for it?
Hope you and your family stay safe and well.
Thanks for watching.
It is our car. The marker came off. Thanks for watching.
I have two coats of the 🐢 hybrid ceramic coating on my tundra and so far it’s really easy to keep it clean, it loves the rain and car wash doesn’t affect the product I agree 100% with the results you get, Thanks for the video,
You are welcome!
I’ve used hybrid solutions and was blown away at how great it is, got it on clearance at Walmart for 3 bucks

@Green Giant Dude, shut your green ass up with that sin shit.

‘According to the instructions, Do Not Use on exterior car surfaces. Let’s do it anyway’. 😂 Thanks Todd, great video.
Thanks 👍
I love the way this guy tests, always does his due diligence like proper prep work etcetera before testing. Always helping to ensure the most accurate results.
Thanks so much!
Yeah, even Sheldon Cooper would approve of his methodology :)
Again, very thorough and comprehensive test, and I LIKE that you make a very concerted effort in the edit for fast cuts, trimming the fat to almost zero, and get right to it. Far too many overlong youtube videos out there, many people could learn from your channel that FASTER shorter videos are what we want. Top marks sir.
Thanks!
Great video, you knew I was going to chime in on this. Always tune right in as soon as I get home on Mondays. Glad to see TurlteWax performing so well. We sprayed a lot of cars in their parking lot testing several of their formulations back in the early 90's. They have come a long way. Ceramic coatings are very different than waxes. Most waxes use a fugative emulsifer so they can be removed with an alkaline cleaning product. Ceramics actually cross link the silicon matrix and are much less soluble. Car detailers these days can be real artists smoothing the paint surface and making htem look like glass. There is an instrument out there, I think made by Byk Gardner that measures the water beading angle on the surface. This is used to measure the hydrophobic strength of the coatings. I love your taped off hood section test. Shows a great deal of side by side results.
Thanks so much!
Who would've thought Turtle Wax would be releasing good products in 2020.
Thanks for the feedback.
What’s crazy is that when independent studies that aren’t worried about looking cheap test a lot of Auto products Turtle wax brand always done well. I think too many people look at the name and just think cheap. It doesn’t surprise me that they’ve done this well with ceramics. Funny thing is is I’ve always been a mothers guy and I’m using their CMX formula now. But I almost bought the turtle wax brand but I didn’t think for some dumb reason it would be as good. I feel dumb now I should’ve just bought it and save six bucks And gotten a better product.
Literally anyone who is into auto detailing. They been putting out great products for the last several years. One of the best being seal and shine.
They really have been putting out good "easy" to use product for the last few years. Their Seal and Shine is great but generally only last about 2 weeks on my cars.
I'm glad they are still around, Turtle Wax was always my grandfathers go to for looking after the car and I still use their wash and wax.
I feel like I’m watching a race every time I view one of these videos, “hybrid solutions narrowly takes the lead followed by ethos, wow what a showdown!!!” Lol I love project farm
Thanks so much!
Hahaha seriously! That commentary is awesome!
You have no idea how helpful this was. Looking at dozens of products on the shelf today with no clue of what works or doesn't work well. This comparison was right on time! Keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do!
I love the creativity for finding a controlled, consistent, numerical tests, to confirm what works from worst to best!
I've been using the Hybrid Solutions for 4 months since I first watched this video and can't believe how great it works. Now HS has a detailer spray too. My 2016 Cadillac SRX is so slick a fly can't land on it. Don't forget to use it on your glass and wheels too. Thanks again PF.
Really? Glass too? Have you found anything you shouldn't use it on on the exterior? Probably going to get this soon and would like to know if there's anywhere to avoid.
Done, my grandpa who taught me a lot of car stuff would say a car is well waxed when “a fly couldn’t land on it” so I’m definitely gonna try it. The car is 10 years old with only 60k miles, I made the inside like new, so now the outside. I have a car wash membership so gonna get it washed, clay bar it myself and try this stuff
I'm a big Meguiars fan, but discovered Turtle Hybrid solutions. It is bloody awesome. I also use it on my tail lights after I compounded them to bring out the clean colour. Highly recommended !!
Great video Todd! As an engineer I'm always impressed by your well thought out testing. Hope you and the family are staying safe!
Thank you very much!
*Manufacturer makes outlandish statement *Project farm chuckles, “we’re gonna test that”
99% of these claims are complete BS and I’m glad guys like PF exist to call them out.
Shill Company: *goes bankrupt
Project Farm: Wow that's a lot of damage!
Like "Made In USA". Lawyers have found a way to be able to put that on labels without it being made in the USA. That label is now just a way to scam us from buying Chinese goods.
Jeremiah Bachmann Like all our prescription drugs?
G Scurf Big pharma wants to profit. Our bodies are for sale.
Been 7 months since I applied Hybrid Solutions to my car. Still performing excellent. How I also gauge it is having only have my windshield coated with HS. Even with going through plenty of washer fluid the one half of windshield still beads very nicely while the other side just sheets. Unbeatable product!
Thanks for sharing.
I bought the Turtle wax product based off this video. Just got back from a 550 mile round trip in the snow (and salt) , off-road in Nevada, went through the local car wash when I got back into town and the Burban is spotless 👍🏼👍🏼. I also coated the side and rear glass.
Thanks for sharing!
I love this channel, everything is always so thorough
Thank you very much and hope you enjoy the video!
This is the most straight forward, easy to understand video out here. Simply Amazing.
Thanks so much!
I've long used Nu Finish (going back to when it was Nu Finish 2000) and it has always worked great for me even on old neglected paint so I've never had a reason to try anything else. Neon Orange bottle. Please consider including it in your next set of tests!
Agree. I’ve used NuFinish for years and love it.
I literally just used their spray on wax it yesterday since I've used their original stuff to clean up my windows and make them water proof (scotty kilmer)
But damn my wife's matrix looks brand new, before it had soooo many micro scratches but now every small dent has a reflection but still looks amazing!
I used NuFinish and other polishes for decades, but eventually I gave waterless wash and waxes a try and realized that what used to take an hour could now take 15 minutes and a fraction of the effort. Even if I could get NuFinish to last 8 months (a big if), I could spray wax the car in less total time in a year. And the cleaning power was great!
Thanks for the suggestion for future round of testing.
yes nufinish since its a classic. also the Rejunavator from Malco seems
to be use by many dealers it protect and shine I had similar results as CMX for water repellent
I bought the Turtle Wax product because of this video and I wanted to report back that it is amazing. You can use it on the entire car including glass and plastic trim. The car is shining like the day I bought it. 10/10 would recommend.
Great feedback! Thank you
We’re missing the “real” ceramic coatings like CarPro, Nano, etc. would be cool to see how the MUCH CHEAPER Hybrid Solutions holds up to those!
Thanks for the suggestions for future round of testing.
when I started watching this video I thought myself I’m pretty sure those are not ceramic coatings but are synthetic polymer coatings I looked it up and it’s actually kind of confusing but I’m mostly right ceramic spray waxes are infused with about 10 to 14 percent SiO2 the SiO2 that makes it ceramic doesn’t fully harden and bond to the surface mixed with that amount of polymers at such a low percentage of SiO2. Ceramic nano coatings have a SiO2 with diy 80-86% professional grade 93% I think for the first time applier 80% would be the best as it’s the most forgiving mess up and it’s a pain in the ass to get off.
If he does these I'd like to see him these super cheap "Mr Fix" ones on ebay, as well.
I saw Hydro Silex advertised as well, but you can't tell how biased the company is when they do their own demonstrations

thanks.
Ahhh. A few minutes of rational consumer science and normalcy. Finally, another dose of sanity and choice based on observed data. Thank you so much for your breath of fresh air, with just a hint of ceramic to help it all slide down.
Wow, thank you!
Pf, you're very scientific in all your comparisons. Even with the observations, you still back it up in the final friction test. No bullshit. Fast, honest. Straight to the point. You're a gem on TH-cam 💎
Thanks so much!
I’ve been using hybrid solutions on a 12 year old car and I agree I’m impressed with its beading ability. However it doesn’t do much to add shine and gloss or hide scratches, swirl marks, and other paint imperfections
Thanks for the feedback.
These ceramic spray waxes aren’t designed to hide swirl marks or scratches. If anything they will just expose even more. Primary purpose is to protect the paint underneath. Second is add gloss. Anything that fills in the scratches to make them less visible will not last long. You really need to compound or at least polish the paint first. It will also help the protection adhere better and last longer.
Project Farm: Very impressive!
Product manufacturer office: explodes with cheers and high fives

🤣yessssss
lol Thanks for sharing.
I've found myself watching your videos before I even go out and buy things anymore, thanks for all the awesome videos man keep it up ! Love watching the creativity in your videos
Awesome! Thank you, will do.
I tried the turtle wax spray after this video and it is holding up during the winter so far. Roads are heavily salted where I live and I wash my cars with a pressure washer regularly during the winter. Just with the pressure washer without any soap the paint gets quite clean and water is beading off again.
I bought the turtle wax product based on this and keep my car in the garage when not driving. I applied two coats. Despite it continuing to be provide nice beading, the slickness to the touch leaves after a month or so. So measurement of beading isn’t the only measure of lasting ability. Try it for yourself and see. It’s super easy to apply so I’ll use it 3-4 times per year. It’s good, but not amazing.
Favorite channel for testing stuff
Thank you very much!
Another quality video! Watched the whole thing. Great to know I got the right product in the end!
Great to hear!
Same as TechTablets I bought the same product and glad to see I did the right thing, love the videos.
I live in Canada, the turtle wax hybrid solution ceramic coating survives over 60% in the winter...I followed the instruction to apply the second layer after 24 hr letting the paint absorb the Sio2, and after two layers, it works perfectly through gas station machine wash and heavy salt after travel. recommend to people who love detailing.
Thanks for sharing.
I had no idea TH-cam could read my mind. I was thinking about getting a spray on ceramic coating and lo and behold this pops up. I’m both impressed and frightened at the same time.
I took a chance buying hybrid solutions when I saw it and I have yet to be disappointed and this solidified my decision. Great job
Thanks so much!
turtle wax is almost the only brand on your test available in shops here in PH. im forced to use it all the time now knowing that it outperforms most brands makes me happy to feel im not missing out as i thought i am... thanks pal. i do consider you a friend and i watch your new videos as soon as i can.
Glad to hear!
Thanks for helping me pick, man. I almost went for classic carnuba, then for the Meguire's, but you and quite a few others (that actually tested the products) all recommended TW Hybrid Solutions Ceramic.
Channels like yours are gold!
Thanks!
The most practical and educational comparison testing on the internet. Outstanding! Thank you for all your hard work so we can make informed decisions on products. Your tests are invaluable!
Thank you!
I bought hybrid solutions after watching this review. Very impressed with the ease of application and buffing off was super easy. I’ve used competing products and this was by far the most forgiving in terms of high spots, haze, and streaking (almost no issues at all and hardly even needed any touch up after close inspection).
Great to hear!
I'd like to see Avalon King put to the test... They are all over automotive channels, I just don't know if it really works long term...
Added to the list. Thank you!
@Nicolas Broszky can't make everyone happy
@Nicolas Broszky Boo hoo hoo, the country is falling apart and this what gets so me swearing upset, boo, hoo hoo
some professionals put avalonking on a 20 foot dark blue center console boat in my marina after a compound and polish, its been 9 months and the boat is patchy looking again. either they messed up the prep and didnt polish it out correctly or the coating is failing.
I now fear to suggest a product I’ve seen advertised.
I dont need those video's, I dont live in USA so there is no way I can buy most of these. That doesnt stop me from watching you, I love the content, because you ACTUALLY care. That's something rare these days (plus your voice and way of speaking is really relaxing to me so good job Man)
Glad you like them! Sorry you can't get the products.
@@Dannyboy0202 The turtle wax hybrid spray which won is available from Amazon in the UK.
As a detailer, detailing and correcting many cars a month. Turtle 🐢 Wax has up there game in the ceramic spray line. I know myself, along with many other detailers that use this all the time. The longevity, the gloss and depth. You cannot go wrong with Turtle. I highly recommend this product. I use it personally on my vehicles, its that good.
Thanks for sharing.
FYI, Slickness is NOT an indicator for how well a coating fills scratches. Smoothness may, but Slickness is different. Hope that helps, you are normally spot on and I appreciate you doing these. I enjoy them all
I'd love to see a test on paints to protect metal from rust
Great test idea! Thank you
Haha, that's my go-to recommendation.
Yes please. I’m starting to get rust on my car and looking for some way to stop it.
Por15?
@@dennispope8160 Yeah, and the budget Rustoleum brand, etc. Sounds like something us DIYers would like to see.
Hands down the best channel on TH-cam.
Thank you very much!
Before I ran to the parts store to by a spray wax I search for Project farm spray wax and knew there would be a video. Ended up buying the Hybrid solutions and loved it. Thanks for making my choice easy.
You are welcome!
After trying most brands of 3in1 detailer sprays on my Harley, I ended up with the Turtle Wax HySol 3in1. It wasn't only repelling water that was a concern to me but dust too, I live up a 1.5 mile gravel/dirt road & the TW HySol did the best overall with dust mostly blown off by wind as I ride or an air compressor set @ 80psi when I get home.
Thanks for sharing.
Project farm, let's see a video on gun cleaning chemicals and oil!
I second that!
Good idea. It’s even better if you throw in a couple of products from other industries. For example, does hybrid ceramic wax protect against rust on bluing better than Hoppes?
TH-cam is run by libtard commie sympathisers, he'll instantly get demonitized
@@barnett25 is this the same reason why history videos are demonitized? Like saying the japanese troops in WW2 were sadistic, youtube demonitize/take it off the algorithm.
I dont trust youtube because of that

Nana's Buick has never looked better!
lol. Nice!
My nana drives an infinity lol
@@subsnovideos-ur4cn The Infinity is the Buick to Lexus's Cadillac. Makes no sense unless you're drunk.
Your tests are amazing! I love all of them. It's so satisfying seeing someone do REAL UNBIASED testing.
Thanks!
As always thank you for your time, determination and general good spirit.
You are one of a kind.
Wow, thank you
I just washed my pickup and wash staring at the wall of products at AutoZone. It's like he read my mind! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!
That is awesome!
You've gotta start leaving Amazon affiliate links to the products you test in the description! I wouldn't buy a lot of products that I do if you didn't test them to show they're the best. You deserve credit for that sale!
*Edit* Awesome to see you did! Thanks for listening as always!
That might be considered a bit of bias though; getting paid any amount based on which product wins would ruin the channel!
@@nathanj1876 I'm saying have affiliate links to ALL of the products. You don't have to buy the 'winner' if it doesn't fit your needs
Affiliate links mean the company pays you to advertise for them. Hence the bias
@@jordanrick2931 ......not the case. You can put an affiliate link to any product on Amazon, assuming you're approved as an influencer. Then he could legit post links to all of the products featured, and be paid whenever anyone buys any of them. That means he has no more incentive to push one product over another, because he would get paid for the purchase of any of the products he reviewed. Literally no bias, other than whatever products he chose to put up against each other. And since he always has a large selection, there would be no incentive for him to push one product over another.
I've quit watching several TH-cam channels they are like infomercials now .. I still hang on here cause he hasn't became a sellout like so many others have .
I really enjoy your channel. I truly believe you’re be of few unbiased reviewers who have no “skin in the game”…I truly value your reviews…keep up the informative reviews.
Thanks, will do!
Could you do a video comparing 10" non stick skillets, like enamel, ceramic, teflon, stainless steel please.
This would be cool.
have your wife do it.
This! Would be cool if he included the Satake Lightweight cast iron pan. If it's avaliable across the Atlantic.
Yesss!
the correct answer is, "your grandmother's cast iron skillet." yep.
But can we talk about the Buick? Severely underrated comfort-mobile. I'd love to have one in my garage.
Thanks for the feedback.
I completely agree. It is definitely a comfortable and reliable vehicle. With proper maintenance these cars can last someone a long time. Where I work we had 2 of these as fleet vehicles. One had "died " and I asked my boss about it. He said if you can get it running then it is yours. I replaced the battery and unplugged the Mass Air Flow sensor and was able to drive it home. I has to do some maintenance items that were due to be done, had to replace the rear door modules, top off the AC, and replaced the coolant elbows that are a known weak spot for 3800 series II engines. I got it with 275k on the clock and drove it everywhere. I ended up giving it to the lady that was helping my mom when I was at work because I found out she was hitch hiking 40 miles to get to town. When it was destroyed in an accident it was nearing the 400k mark and was still on the original never rebuilt motor and transmission. Seriously a good vehicle. not to mention it got over 30 mpg on the interstate.
@@jaadams72 GM transmissions are not known for lasting THAT long, it had to have been replaced you just didn't know..?
liblib89 I understand the disbelief. We had the service records all the way back to 60k when the vehicle was purchased by my work.
@@jaadams72 got 2004 Grand Prix gt same drive train 3.8 series 3 34 mpg here in Ontario Canada 408000 km on motor and transmission. I service transmission each year by pumping 4-5 litres out transmission dip stick tube and new dextron 6 back in .The oil gets changed every 6000 km with what ever synthetic is on sale . I changed rage elbows to aluminium after market when I changed the water pump . Parts are great price also water pump was $51 . Super reliable
As ever you've knocked it out the park again Sir, MAJOR RESPECT !!!! Immediately ordered Hybrid Solutions after watching. I'm in Glasgow, Scotland and amazed at the professionalism and dedication you put into these tests. I'd watch your test on paint drying. 😆😆 Have you checked out " ZEBRA CORNER " yet for a good laugh ??? Totally funny. ..also on utube.👍👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing. I'll check it out. Thanks!
I remember when Turtle Wax used to be known as the cheap low quality brand, but now they have really been innovating, even winning awards. I have used the new Ceramic, and also brand new Graphene spray on my vehicle. They are amazing products.
Thanks for the feedback.
Would love to see a comparison like this but for the new graphene spray coatings!
Thanks for the suggestion.
Your videos have, and continue to save people literally hundreds of dollars, as well as countless days ,experimenting with all of these various substances. It has taken me years to get to the "better " products to use by trial and error. You sir have taken all of the guesswork out of finding the best product for the application. I hope that everyone appreciates all of the time and testing you put in to give us that "Best" product for each different application. I sure do. Again thank you for sharing, and taking the time to do ALL of the testing you do for us viewers, you are an invaluable asset to us DIYER'S.😎👍
You are welcome!
