That result sheet would be awesome, if it was made public as Google sheet after each 6-month test video. Would just keep growing and growing, if the rating system stays the same.
@@ericgardner5548 usually turtle wax lasts quite long but i would like to see how it compares side by side to other products since everyones application and environment is different.
I love applying Adam’s Graphene Spray coating to my customers vehicles. We have harsh Michigan winters with a lot of road salt, and it’s one of the only short term products I can count on to go at least 6 months. Thanks Jason for these tests.
Super excellent and helpful video! A little mistake on the rating list: Q2 Can Coat: 10/10 cost, 8/10 easy of use, 3/10 durability( it is actually 10/10 as you indicated on video starting from 24:35 ). Thank you for sharing!
I noticed this too. Corrected overall score should've been 95, making it the winner!! Glad to see this as I just had CanCoat EVO installed on top of Gyeon Pure EVO.
This experiment has been extremely valuable to me. Thank you for taking the time, energy, and money to test this all out and share the results. Looks like Gtechniq CSL and G1 are a winning combo!
Thank you for performing this test and keeping up with it to see the results. We all strive to test new products but you saved us the guess work, money and time!
I've tried more low end protectants than I'd like to admit and for Ceramic based products, Griots 3-1 Ceramic spray wax is by far the most durable. For slightly more work to apply and way more slickness and Gloss- Turtle Wax 75th Anniversary Ceramic and Graphene paste wax is F'ing phenomenal. For paint that has some depth and darkness to it, that is the best paste wax I've ever used.
You may laugh but I've used nothing but Turtle Wax Ice Liquid wax once a year, applied with a pad, and the Ice Spray Wax detailer about every 6 washes on my 2005 Mazda 3 for 16 years now. I Drive it daily up here in Toronto Canada, through all kinds of crap weather. Its parked in a condo underground overnight, but outside during the day. Result; The finish still looks amazing, like new. Oh almost forgot, I pay $17.99 a bottle (Spray Wax) at Walmart and it lasts over a year. The Liquid Wax with applicator lasts me years.
I use turtle wax seal and shine for the last couple of years. Shines and protects my car as good as ANY product of this type! Always wash my car every 7 to 10 days and apply it every 6 to 8 weeks because my car is never garaged. The seal and shine is absolutely an incredible, fantastic super cheap product.
It's nice, but I think Sonax Polymer Net Shield would last longer. I do top PNS with Brilliant Shine, though!. He does have their new Ceramic Detailer on his cart. I expect it to do well in durability
Nice to see all the side by side comparisons. I would have liked to see Crystal Serum Ultra compared to the other products. I had CSL on my last car and CSU on my current car and I feel it makes a big difference
Well the crystal serum light is a pro-consumer where the serum ultra you have to be a certified installer, I am a certified installer which Gtechniq and the ultra is at least three times better than the crystal serum light especially when top with EXO V4
Was thinking the same. Clearly it is the winner of all long term coatings. I use it regularly and I can assure it lasts more than 6 months and its hydrophobicity its just insane
@@KiranPatel-fk1pg My question, as well. Not knocking the product, or Ray's comment, I'm just a bit cornfused as to how that would work... I love Adam's products, but they've fallen pray to the typical car-detailing market, and creating products that are either completely re-dundant, or altogether unnecessary. But, their base product line is spectacular.
Yeh…..2 of the highly rated products left out. Hmmmmm …..reputable detailers like Pan the Organizer, Jimbo Detailing and Dallas Paint Correction channels have lots of tests on the items.
Yep. The new formula is excellent. Durability is pretty awesome compared to some of those really expensive brands. Goes to show, you don't have to spend big on those name brands to get great results. Turtle wax is very underrated.
Jason, as always, thank you for the longer term reviews. I use TC as a QD after maintenance washes, couldn't be happier with the price vs durability, which was much longer than I thought possible for a spray on protectant. Slowly prepping some of my rides for ceramic coatings, glad CSL lives up to it's claims.
Exactly my thoughts too. The Turtle wax will rival most of those used, not the fully blown ceramic coatings of course, but as a topper, they are high end in my opinion.
I used the turtle wax hybrid ceramic spray coating as a sealant after detailing my car last summer, it has easily lasted all year and its still working after 1 year. Picked up the hybrid solutions wash and wax to top it off a few months ago, and it boosted its effect back up to freshly detailed standards, between these two products i'm super duper happy and they are VERY cost efficient.
@@machucast I hope not. I have 7 bottles of the Ice seal and Shine (new formula-smells great too), one bottle of the Graphene Infused Flex Wax (yet to try), one bottle of the Precision Platelet One and Done Compound and The Max Wax, Graphene Liquid Wax. Also have 3 of the 75th Anniversary graphene infused paste wax tubs on the way. I also purchased the Ceramic Wet Wax and the Ceramic Spray Coating Wax. I am going to try these out on various parts of my daily to compare. I know they all will be great, of course, but want to see how the Graphene based ones hold up to the traditional SiO2 based products. Love the Turtle Wax presentation too. They have become a world class Company !
Thanks for all the time and honesty put into this! It is almost impossible to wade through the marketing hype without real world test like you provide. I am new to the more serious side of detailing and can say you have already saved me huge amounts of time and money. I am now a subscriber and looking forward to more product tests and reviews. One question can and if so, how much longer can a spray coating make your base coating last? Thanks and keep up the great work!
Great follow up. Liked your point system. Somewhat surprised by some products. I've started using Can Coat myself and have been very pleased with it. For as easy as it is to use, it seems to be fairly long lasting. I have my own tests going, since I need to see what works in my environment, but I can say I'm really liking the Poorboy's World coating. Inexpensive, nice looks, and it is still going on the durability side.
So just a question shouldn’t the ones that lasted longer than their claim get a better rating for durability? Like the 303 3 months but still there nearly 6 months in?
I also think the pointing system is not accurate... But over or under performance should not count on the pointing system... A true result would be the lowest cost per application and how many times it needs to be applied to protect the paint for 12 months, easy of use must also consider how many times it needed to be applied for that 1 year protection.
@@LuisNY I'm personally looking for predictable effectiveness, I do not care about the lowest cost per application at all. Yes, we fetishize the cheap seats but I want the best, price be damned.
@@project.jericho understandable, that is your video and your opinion... But not everyone will always look to buy the best available, especially in a overcrowded market where the best product may be marginally better than the second, 5x more expensive and almost impossible to apply properly.... With this amount of good products the majority of consumers will likely want to buy the best bang for the buck....
You are the best!!! I know now what to buy! Very important tests on all protective products! To see is to believe! Big help for us all!!! Many many thanks!!! Video shared a topnotch compared to other detailer vlog!!! Congratulations!!! My snappy salute to you sir!!!!!
I personally use the 303 spray coating as more of a ceramic coating. The application seems to go smoother if you treat it as such and use an application sponge. I also use Mothers ceramic wash additive in my snow foam gun and I gotta say that combo is fantastic. After 6 months the 303 was still behaving like it was new on the upper half of the car but the lower portion of the car was a little less hydrophobic. I’ve reapplied another layer of 303 and will be using Q2M wet coat every month after every second wash to see if that helps keep the coating more intact.
Congratulations! I mean it. You guys are the real deal and one of the Top 3 You Tube Detailing Channels. I do wish you would give The Last Coast V2 a chance in your next go round. Its good for at least 6 months. Its worth giving it a chance. I would love to see how it holds up with your sample group. Keep up the great work.
Tec582 monthly is the best performing product I've ever used... it takes 10 mins to do the whole car, and a $40 gallon can last you probably 5 years used that way... doesnt have the curing time like Beadmaker and is less finnicky to apply... I used to do the same thing with Megs Synthetic Xpress Wax which also worked great, but Tec582 is just a bit better
Hello Jason from Australia ;) I do enjoy your in the real world testing and have Gyeon Can Coat on my car with the exception of the bonnet/hood which I now have Adams Graphene spray coating due to me polishing the bonnet/hood after someone's cat had been sliding around on it..
I am a big fan on the Cancoat, here in Australia the product is reasonably priced and it last 9-12m. Ie after 9m in the summer heat and rain you will be able to spot weak points. It goes on very well and is newbie friendly. Definitely recommend for anyone who wants to have a play with lite versions of the coatings. Out of interest, in the video body, you gave it a 10/10 however on Excel in the beginning of the video it only scores 3/10?
I was hoping you’d add TurtleWax seal n shine to the list of products. Would be interested to see how it compares to the others considering price and it’s reputation for being a great all round sealant.
GTechniq holding it down! Not surprised. I Have CSL topped with ExoV4 and after 2 years it is still performing amazingly. To be fair CarPro reload is more designed to be used as an occasional topper to refresh a long-term coating underneath, I wouldn't use it as a stand alone protectant.
I've got Crystal Serum Ultra on both of our cars and it's outstanding. I do apply Gyeon wet coat after each wash (about every 4~6 weeks) which is probably a bit overkill but MAN it's just so easy to apply 😃 Would love to see how wet coat actually holds up long term. Definitely going to be checking out the Gtechniq window stuff now.
If you guy's want to try a old school product that works well, you should try WOODoc Penetrating wax, it was made to seal wood, rubber, painted surfaces, it adds a layer of protection just like a ceramic coating, beads off water and costs next to nothing compared to any other car product anywhere, It's the blue bottle out of the Woodoc range just make sure it says penetrating wax on the front of the bottle, try it out
You got a subscriber just for this!! Ive been looking for weeks trying to find ANYTHING that compares professional coats so i can pick what i want to use on my car
I’d like to see this more in depth. Variables of seasons, climates. Specifically with true coatings on one vehicle. Spray coatings on another. Not to be confused with spray sealants or protection. According to what the product advertises. The real time real world results are well done. Thank you Chicago Auto Pros for doing this. Would love to see a real time not sped up detail series. Various vehicles from various amount of grime done in a contest among the workers. Thank you Last thing, add IGL coatings too in there since that is becoming popular.
Shouldn't the products that required a second coat be double the price per oz since you have use twice as much. Price per application is more important than price per oz.
I used to hate applying Collinite 845. Always landed up applying too much which makes it harder to wipe off. We now keep it in a tub in the freezer and apply it ice cold on the vehicle when it's still wet The easy of use and longevity of the product is awesome. Since you already have it in stock I would love to hear your thoughts after you test it my way
I use Nu Finish. I don't wash my car often, nor is there much rain here in Arizona. So, for $8 bucks, it's not bad, and I get about 5 months before I see a need to re-apply.
Thank You Jason this was a great video Just getting ready to use ceramic slam I’ve seen on Apex Detailing and Miranda Detailing little goes a long way they recommend two sprays wipe on them wipe off. Love P&S bead maker . P&S showroom shine I’ve use also about 2 hours after applying bead maker . Again love the channel. I’m a weekend warrior guys . Thank you!!
Wow. Great video. A lot of us laymen/tourists do not know the real difference between these products. Packaging sells it. Excellent delivery and explanation. Well done. Thanks. Subscribed.
Looking forward to TW Seal N Shine, Flex Wax, and the Koch Chemie sealant! This is my favorite series as I've always wanted to find the best protection for the winters. I have been using Seal N Shine on my car for the last year now!
Where my problem with tests like this is what you see with CQuartz and CSL. The absolute beating some panels take more than others. I’d be interested to see a vehicle with CQuartz and CSL pitted like this straight up. One half in CQuartz and the other side CSL. I’m also disappointed to not see TW Ceramic spray here. With two coats, it lasted 8 months of winter. I’m really impressed with it.
This strange, I’ve used ceramic slam for two years now and it’s been BY FAR the easiest coating I’ve ever used. Much easier that regular wax or any of the spray on ceramics I’ve tried. Just wipe it on, wait 5 mins, it wipes off with almost no effort. Very surprised.
Oh boy, these new sprays may make life hard for us in the coming years. I bet there will be a once a year polish or wax, that you just spray on and let dry, you did a bang up job, Thanks a lot. BB
The Collinite was not applied correctly. It's a fantastic wax. If applied correctly, it's very easy on and off, and water beads off my car for a year plus. I learned about it from an old detailer more than two decades ago and have been using it ever since.
Did you do a decon wash? Iron and tar massively mask the hydrophobic properties of a coating. Usually the properties come back after the panel has been decontaminated
good summary Jason, much appreciated. Would be interested to see how AM Hybrid Sealant/Detailer works for you (got 4+ months here in Scotland over the winter), plus latest TW Graphene products, and perhaps Infinity Wax's Graphene too.
Woodoc Penetrating Wax is put on to your car with a microfiber cloth and after it flashes you can buff your car, your car will turn into a mirror and protected for 6 to 8 weeks
Gyeon Q2 Mohs only gave me about 3 months max when I applied it. That was after a decon, clay, & full correction. My 2 long distance runners are Sonax Polymer Netshield and Finish Kare 1000p (BWM 101). I get about 6 to 9 months durability on both in Northern NY. The PNS is good on all surfaces, although I wouldn't use on on the windshield (good on side glass though). The Finish Care you don't want to get on textured plastic, but it's excellent on the windshield. Excellent hydrophobicity, without any rainbow effects through the glass as I get with the PNS. My favorite all-time coating was Element 119, System-X from a decade ago. Got years out of it. Unbelievable sheeting action with no water spotting. There is a "new-er" version around but I've not tried it as they are a PITA to deal with nowadays and make you jump through hoops to purchase it.
So funny to hear Mohs lasted 3 months... Did you apply one layer? If 2 layers were done, how much you waited between each layer? Mohs is one of the greatest ceramic coatings out there, Ive been installing it for 5 yesrs now and this man also proves it.
As much as it's pimped on youtube, Armor Shield IX has to be part of the next test. I have it on two cars and it was simple to apply, went a long way, and seems to be holding up well for two garage queens. Maybe even try the Gloss It stuff that Vin Wiki was pimping b/c they did a detail on his McLaren? I have the Gloss It quick detailer and it was surprisingly good. Left a very noticeable difference on the slickness on the car surface when I subsequently washed the car. Thanks for doing these tests! Bueno!
First and foremost thank you very much for taking the time to do this test! Time is money and you spent your own money to acquire the product. Thanks for taking the hit. I know you don’t offer the Ethos Graphine at your shop, do you have any thoughts on the Ethos ceramic wax pro or the Ethos Resist as a short term product? I’m older, grew up waxing the car with McGuires every spring and fall. I’ve been very interested in the synthetic waxes. Any thoughts or opinions appreciated. Thanks again for doing these tests!

I’d like to see this more in depth. Variables of seasons, climates. Specifically with true coatings on one vehicle. Spray coatings on another. Not to be confused with spray sealants or protection. According to what the product advertises.
The real time real world results are well done. Thank you Chicago Auto Pros for doing this.
Would love to see a real time not sped up detail series. Various vehicles from various amount of grime done in a contest among the workers.
Thank you
Last thing, add IGL coatings too in there since that is becoming popular.
Shouldn't the products that required a second coat be double the price per oz since you have use twice as much. Price per application is more important than price per oz.
I used to hate applying Collinite 845. Always landed up applying too much which makes it harder to wipe off. We now keep it in a tub in the freezer and apply it ice cold on the vehicle when it's still wet The easy of use and longevity of the product is awesome. Since you already have it in stock I would love to hear your thoughts after you test it my way
Nu finish is a cleaner wax. Not really meant for protection. More for adding protection after applying
Awesome and thank you. Great to see how these work since it’s sooo hard to choose one product over another
Can you try the adams graphene coating
Thanks for doing this! It saves people like me money on the products they don't need for the ones that give the best results
I use Nu Finish. I don't wash my car often, nor is there much rain here in Arizona. So, for $8 bucks, it's not bad, and I get about 5 months before I see a need to re-apply.
Thank You Jason this was a great video Just getting ready to use ceramic slam I’ve seen on Apex Detailing and Miranda Detailing little goes a long way they recommend two sprays wipe on them wipe off. Love P&S bead maker . P&S showroom shine I’ve use also about 2 hours after applying bead maker . Again love the channel. I’m a weekend warrior guys . Thank you!!
Wow. Great video. A lot of us laymen/tourists do not know the real difference between these products. Packaging sells it. Excellent delivery and explanation. Well done. Thanks. Subscribed.
Awesome! Awesome! Series!!!!! Fun to follow and with some it’s very surprising in good and bad ways. Good job. Thank you for all that hard work.
Out of this whole experiment, i've learned all of Dr. Beasleys products are very expensive and lack performance.
Agreed. I've said the same on other sites. They just don't live up to their claims. They use fancy names and containers to up price.
I have good durability with their lower priced coatings so just as surprised as Jason.
303 graphine is the bomb it’s been on my car a year it still looks great
Would like to see ceramic hybrid comparison..turtle wax, last coat, etc...
the only thing you need is ADBL Synthetic spray Wax, after that you need ceramic coatings if you want longer duration
D@mn good video! Just the facts! It takes a lot of courage and integrity to perform these tests!
A summary page at the end would have been nice/helpful
Love the testing!! Love the Getechniq products and their performance.. I’ve always liked Adams and was fun to see it preform well!! Well done Jason!!!
Looking forward to TW Seal N Shine, Flex Wax, and the Koch Chemie sealant! This is my favorite series as I've always wanted to find the best protection for the winters. I have been using Seal N Shine on my car for the last year now!
I've only ever done 1 layer of cquartz UK 3.0 and after 3yrs 30k miles and being taken care of it was still working like day 1
Great test!!! Thanks!!
Thanks for watching!
Where my problem with tests like this is what you see with CQuartz and CSL. The absolute beating some panels take more than others. I’d be interested to see a vehicle with CQuartz and CSL pitted like this straight up. One half in CQuartz and the other side CSL. I’m also disappointed to not see TW Ceramic spray here. With two coats, it lasted 8 months of winter. I’m really impressed with it.
This strange, I’ve used ceramic slam for two years now and it’s been BY FAR the easiest coating I’ve ever used. Much easier that regular wax or any of the spray on ceramics I’ve tried. Just wipe it on, wait 5 mins, it wipes off with almost no effort. Very surprised.
Oh boy, these new sprays may make life hard for us in the coming years. I bet there will be a once a year polish or wax, that you just spray on and let dry, you did a bang up job, Thanks a lot. BB
For an easy spray ceramic coating I highly highly recommend Black Rhino Topper. It has been phenomenal
can you do a video when yuo mix all the ceramic coatings up in one bottle and use it on the care see what happens
You are the best ! This test is amazing .
thanks for continuing this series. very helpful.
Please continue this series with other brands! Very helpful!
Nice to see the comparison tests and especially the follow ups. Thank you so much for doing this!! 😎
Man I was hoping that you would review nexgen. He's always telling us how bad his product sucks and I wanted you to prove it.
The Collinite was not applied correctly. It's a fantastic wax. If applied correctly, it's very easy on and off, and water beads off my car for a year plus. I learned about it from an old detailer more than two decades ago and have been using it ever since.
Fantastic video...thanks so much for making it👍
Thanks for watching!
The lastcoat v2!!!
Outstanding work and so appreciate your thorough analysis. So appreciated by us detail guys.
Did you do a decon wash? Iron and tar massively mask the hydrophobic properties of a coating. Usually the properties come back after the panel has been decontaminated
I think that for most people, the Adam's Graphene Ceramic Spray Coating is the best. Let's see what round 2 offers.
Super important, super useful video. Thank you so very much!!!
good summary Jason, much appreciated. Would be interested to see how AM Hybrid Sealant/Detailer works for you (got 4+ months here in Scotland over the winter), plus latest TW Graphene products, and perhaps Infinity Wax's Graphene too.
I have AM hybrid on for the next test.
Woodoc Penetrating Wax is put on to your car with a microfiber cloth and after it flashes you can buff your car, your car will turn into a mirror and protected for 6 to 8 weeks
Thank you for doing this test!
Gyeon Q2 Mohs only gave me about 3 months max when I applied it. That was after a decon, clay, & full correction. My 2 long distance runners are Sonax Polymer Netshield and Finish Kare 1000p (BWM 101). I get about 6 to 9 months durability on both in Northern NY. The PNS is good on all surfaces, although I wouldn't use on on the windshield (good on side glass though). The Finish Care you don't want to get on textured plastic, but it's excellent on the windshield. Excellent hydrophobicity, without any rainbow effects through the glass as I get with the PNS. My favorite all-time coating was Element 119, System-X from a decade ago. Got years out of it. Unbelievable sheeting action with no water spotting. There is a "new-er" version around but I've not tried it as they are a PITA to deal with nowadays and make you jump through hoops to purchase it.
So funny to hear Mohs lasted 3 months... Did you apply one layer? If 2 layers were done, how much you waited between each layer? Mohs is one of the greatest ceramic coatings out there, Ive been installing it for 5 yesrs now and this man also proves it.
I have a carpro ceramic coat, i use the reload spray to keep the coat topped up. 2 years on since the coat was applied still going strong.
I love these videos. Super useful! Thank you so much.
As much as it's pimped on youtube, Armor Shield IX has to be part of the next test. I have it on two cars and it was simple to apply, went a long way, and seems to be holding up well for two garage queens.
Maybe even try the Gloss It stuff that Vin Wiki was pimping b/c they did a detail on his McLaren? I have the Gloss It quick detailer and it was surprisingly good. Left a very noticeable difference on the slickness on the car surface when I subsequently washed the car.
Thanks for doing these tests! Bueno!
First and foremost thank you very much for taking the time to do this test! Time is money and you spent your own money to acquire the product. Thanks for taking the hit. I know you don’t offer the Ethos Graphine at your shop, do you have any thoughts on the Ethos ceramic wax pro or the Ethos Resist as a short term product? I’m older, grew up waxing the car with McGuires every spring and fall. I’ve been very interested in the synthetic waxes. Any thoughts or opinions appreciated. Thanks again for doing these tests!
