    @MirandaDetailing 4 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    Totally agree on the shine, gloss and so on being subjective. Everyone sees paint differently. I think that liquid waxes “polish” the paint a little more since the application is done with a microfiber pad by hand or polishing pad on a DA. But I’m finding the spray on sealants and waxes to be way more durable!

    I have the newer Adam's ceramic spray that comes in bottle like the liquid. I did full detail on my truck. Strip wash, iron remover, wash and alcohol cleaned and then put the spray on and let it cure for 5 hours inside. My truck sits outside a bit and after about a month the hydro properties just seemed to disappear. Was kinda let down due to how expensive it is. Have been a Adam's lover for awhile, but not sure anymore

    Quick question, hopefully you get a chance to respond, but without a good protection coat is it better to hand dry or use a blower? I dont have an actual blower for vehicles, I just use my gas powered or electric leaf blower but still end up with spots. There is not a good coating on either of the vehicles I wash. I need to get them polished up but will have to wait until after my 4th hip replacement surgery lol.

    Jimbo, enjoy your shows. I am a Maguire's fan. I like paste waxes. After that, I find the spray assortment adds extra protection that is easily applied more frequently. If you are serious about the condition of your paint, try good paste wax applications and then for general maintenance use sprays. This will really extend your paste waxes and beautify your finish.

      Look for skinny brushes that are long and thin to work the fabric. In one hand I hold the crevice tool in another I continously scrub and try to catch all the flying debris. More than anything is repeating the process over and over in several directions. Tedious but having a good arsenal of stiff brushes to fit on different areas helps immensely more than crevice tool alone. I don't have access to air compressor so I work with what I can

      Xtreme Solutions lvr 403 top it with poly seal, or any sealant of choice.
      Ph neutral soap when needed.
      For quick detailer/waterless wash specifically when you want a nice pop in gloss for that day, ethos defy is a great topper with super slick finish and buttery smooth and easy application.
      Here's a demo of the combo. Acrylic base plays well with anything, does a bit of filling to boot.

      I’ve used all those product you mentioned and side by side they do not compare to Ceramic Wax PRO. Russo Coat attracts dust like crazy and is a pain to use, PNS beads extremely well but is not very durable nor slick. Collinite fogs up, attracts dust like crazy, and does not have the durability or protection for a long term sealant.
      Yes, PRO is certainly more expensive, but our clients love the richness, gloss, dirt repellency and slickness that is really unmatched.

I like your videos but your testing methods are inaccurate to be nice about it.. if you put the product on and the paint lasts through 12 standard washes, you have at least somewhat proven the effectiveness over a years worth of washes (once a month)..
