Can Meguiar's Ultimate Ceramic Coating Really Achieve Pro-level Results? Exciting New Product Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 бер 2024
- In this video, I share my experience with the Meguiar's Ultimate Ceramic Coating. The proprietary technology in Meguiar's Ultimate Ceramic Coating allows the product to harden into a solid barrier, similar to pro-grade ceramic coatings. This cutting-edge formula allows you to get the benefits of ultra-durable protection that increases gloss and slickness with unbelievable water beading, but it doesn't require a complicated process to apply or remove. One of the benefits of this coating is that it will conceal light paint defects. However, to obtain the longest-lasting results, we recommend that your paint is in excellent condition before applying. Doing a full paint correction process (clay bar, compound, and polish) beforehand will ensure that you get the best bond, best performance, and best durability. The process is easy. Simply spray this coating directly onto the surface in a section. Then, spread with a premium microfiber towel. Once you see it "flash" off, wipe it with a separate premium microfiber. With Ultimate Ceramic Coating, you get a premium ceramic car coating but don't have to worry about being a certified or a trained installer to apply it properly. Anyone can use it with its easy application and easy wipe-off. Well.....that is what is advertised.....let us put the coating through the Apex Detail Review Process!

Your thoughts? Something special...or just another one of the hundreds or thousands of other spray coatings?
run of the mill
Not bad for a over the counter spray, the vett looks better from here, not sure if it's a fair comparison however. Great video
Nothing special
Is a very inconsistent product.
Every review Ive seen get different results, strike 2 for megs, still waiting to see M888 results
Turtle Wax is better.
That C-7 looks incredible!!!
Great video Brian! Yes there are so many different products in that category!! The only way to know hiw they perform is to try them!!! Thanks again!!!
I use to use a lot of Meguires liquid ceramic wax because I had excellent luck with it lasting as far as beading water for months upon months. Then when I started using their Ceramic Detailer after maintenance washes I was able to push the longevity of the liquid ceramic wax up to past one year. For the price of it and the detailer as well as ease of use (applying after correction like a traditional wax with a hand applicator) i think its still a good value
Good to know!
Thank you for all the work you put into these demonstrations, Brian.
You're saving us money, time, and frustration doingball these tests.
I'm going to try it. My best bro from elementary school got into Meguiar's because of me, and he still loves having me use Megs on his family vehicles. He'll have no problem me using his truck for the guinea pig. He's still got their "Hybrid Paint Coating" on it righy now, which is an AWESOME coating.
The C-7 looks amazing. Much glossier than the black car. The other vehicles that have your brand of coating on, all display much better. You should be proud of your hard work Brian. ❤️🖖
I think its easy to use and has good results in regards to gloss slickness and water behavior. But its 8 ounces and there are so msny products that can meet and exceed its best attributes for less money and double the amount of product. So for ne, its a no go. And the Corvette was twice as glossy and wet looking! Just my opinion. Great work as usual!
Looks like a fairly decent product that is easy to apply. Good review Brian!
I agree with you, Brian Meguiars has sort of been pushed to the sideline for me. I think I’ll be sticking with my ultra lock, especially on my ISF with the ultrasonic blue…..
Greetings from Puerto Rico!! Corvette looks astonishing!!!
Puerto Rico here also 😂 🇵🇷 🇵🇷
Cheers!
Thanks 4 the Mopar. Love the color of the vette.no competition 4 any BC or Phoenix EOD
That Vette! Looks absolutely Sunglasses Stunning Brian! I also use to be a big fan of
Meguire's products. But after Seal & Shine. I haven't yet seen Meguire's do anything? Sorry for the part message! Sometimes I don't think I'm to tightly Wrapped 🫣🤣
The C7 is definitely looking the better of the two. The Megs product reminds me of TW's spray ceramic coating which I really like (used very sparingly!) but I'm wondering if it will last as long. I like Meg's HCW very much (apply with wet wash mitt, buffing the roof, to avoid window streaks, and spraying off the lower part of the car) - great results for minimal effort. I see this new product as something a bit better than HCW but only a half way house to a proper coating.
I think this is good product to sell in the big box stores as the application is simple and the results are decent. By no means does it compete with pro grade coatings. Thank you for the video!
Overall it's an excellent move forward for meguiars. Definitely a place for this. However im addicted to the blue collar line!! 😂
C7 looks amazing!
BC7 & Seal & Shine for the win!
OG seal & shine
@Carlos.Rivera I still have 2 bottles 👌👍🏻
The C7 has a higher gloss than the dodge. I guess it would work for the driveway detailer who is just starting out. I’m going to say it is very easy to use for someone who wants to save money and do it themselves.Great video Brian 👊🏼💎
Looks great
I have been using the Blue Collar 3 as a drying aid. One or two sprays on a large towel works very well on my coated truck. Maybe the new Maguiars product could be used in a similar way.
Great review. The industry is over saturated with so many products. The only difference is the price & marketing behind it
Awesome video and product review good friend
Thank you!
Wow i really like your front end tool box. Very clever idea. Do you paint vehicles too? I do, i was always wondering if you do too at times.
Sort of....we have a sprayable PPF...which needs a portable booth.
Do you plan to test the meguiars beyond ceramic paint coating m888 ? I believe it released this year
My only reference point is the CQuartz UK 3.0 and Gliss V2 top coat that I use currently. If you have experience with those, how would you say this new Ultimate Ceramic compares to their gloss/shine?
Definitely not to bad.. I like it👍🏻
I think the Vette looks way, way better.
Im sorry Brian, i kinda moved on from Meguiars products. Just not for me. Thank you so much for the work and time it takes to make these videos Brian.
My pleasure! Cheers!
Brian how is it’s anti static properties? Living in the So Cal desert I am in a quest to find the best product for my area.
I think it looks like it does what it says. It does what they all say. If you are a pro it will work because your average customer will love the shine and like the beading. Now I would use it for my car if it didn't seem like the stuff I use for customers. The market is just flooded with good stuff and it really comes down to how you like the manufacturer.
There are products out there everywhere that are just as good and way more cost effective. Meaning just as durable or more so, just as hydrophobic or more so, and twice as much product for half the price.
Will you be playing with Jimbos' new spray, at some point?
Whats are the work you do after rubbing, polish the paint, hawe been intesting to now...
I’ve often wondered why the mega companies like Mequiars and Turtle Wax don’t just make the absolute best and longest lasting coating and just put everyone else out of the coating business. I mean they have the finances to hire the very best chemists and R&D team to do so. Why don’t they? I’ll even throw in Chemical Guys instead of their 100 products why don’t they just stop messing around and do a few great products?
By the way I use the BC1/BC3 combo religiously!
where is the shop manager
If you are just starting out in detailing, and want something a little more, then this may be the product for you? But is it better than other spray ceramics? If a person does not want to invest in a true ceramic coating, may be this is the ticket? But I am not ready to purchase this product and I don't believe it has a place in my shop? As always thanks for the review...
The meguire's ceramic coat looks ok on the challenger but it cannot compare with the corvette . The C7 looks shinier, much more clear and slicker .
so whats the best ceramic wax product on the market today?
Boy, the C7. ! Could be an advert for Apex. It's dripping wet.
The problem with this product is that it's not a spray and wipe. You have to really keep wiping until every last bit of residue is gone. Also it does not bond well or at all to existing coatings or anything else. It has to be on pure bare paint.
It seems to not have that Wet like appearance ; referring to the Camaro It has more of a Warm shine🤫
Nice review ... your shop is looking busy
Just the way we like it.
Try the M888 next!
Will do.
Does the hybrid ceramic sealant they make work well if you have tried? Also C7 Zr1 is one of my absolute dream rides. Along with many other classic muscle cars. I know that’s a grand sport but still
The sealant works perfectly fine.
@@apexdetail85 i have BC3 but havent used it yet, waiting to do a one or 2 step on the truck. Not comfortable doing a true ceramic on my vehicle because i dont have a garage to work in. Would you say the sealant is less durable than BC3 as far as longevity?
A good review, however you did a gloss reading but you didn’t do a before reading so we don’t know what the jump in gloss is. Like you say…it’s a decent product. We still have plenty of snow up here. How did your window coating make it through the winter? I especially am interested in the protection from using a scraper to get the ice off. Keep up the good work!
BC 5 is still going strong. Spring is rain season here....a great test.
Just another one to me. Sad to say meguiars is what I started with. I am a bc2 guy love that stuff
❤
What about the M888 ceramic coating?
Next on my list.
It looks comparable in application to Turtle Waxes graphene infused mist. I've been so impressed by graphene that I have gotten completely away from ceramics. Just my preference
kinda frustrating, why call it a coating its good for 1 or 2 washes. Tech 582 will still be my go to for short term protection on my clients vehicles
The Vettee looks better but it’s fiberglass
hope that the shop manager is not on holidays
Napping in the office.💤
@@apexdetail85 -- But Brian.....we need to see MORE of the Shop-Manager! Much cuter than you are Dude! 😂
C7 looks better
I'm always a little disappointed by megs. Perhaps they are too big to adapt quickly to the market.
I wouldn’t be ashamed to use it.🤣🤣🤣. Hilarious!
Simple, no it can’t.
Megs is just 'meh' these days. Far better stuff out there. The last decade did them no favors.
The BC lineup will be my next go to. Sooner than later. That paint on the vette was dripping. And who puts those weird rims on the charger like that? Made it looked hooptie..."they're racing wheels" or some crap, just awful looking with the front gold rims (which are sweeeeet) and weird chrome back rims. Looked like mad max vehicle. Thats a crime. Just saying...
Looks like he has slicks on the back for track days.
Nothing special, I wouldn't spend money on it. Meguires needs to step it up I think with some better quality products.
C7 looks amazing ❤
