Oh man, I cant keep up with all these products. I recently picked up a bottle of the Turtle Wax Ceramic Wet Wax on sale for Amazon Prime days and I'm really liking it. I've been using the Seal N Shine for about 2yrs and while I like the results I was open to trying a product that is easier to apply and think I found it in the Ceramic Wet Wax. I already towel dry the car after it's weekly wash so the Ceramic Wet Wax doesn't require an additional step. I feel the car looks shinier and the Tenorite Grey appears darker with the Wet Wax. I still plan on applying the Seal N Shine as a base but now it's additional weekly applications of the Wet Wax. I live right on the ocean, my cars 10' from the water during high tide so with the salty air and seagull droppings I feel better constantly washing and waxing it. Detailing the car is a pain, I don't have a garage and my parking area is gravel and no shade, I wait until the sun is going down to wash and then I have limited time to apply a sealant or Wax before it gets late and dark.
The ceramic wet wax is amazing for the price. Super easy to work with, decent disability, and provides a great shine! I'm surprised it's not talked about more for the value and ease of use you get from it.
Seal N Shine is a great product, and I think this Renegade gives it a run for it's money in several areas. I'll have to try out the Ceramic Wet Wax, not something I've personally used yet. Interestingly the more I test products the more I notice some look better on certain colors than others. So I totally believe it may look great on the Tenorite Gray.
Its a solid product. I got it around the time it first game out like...over a yr ago. I used it once. i can't remember how long it lasted but its fairly long lasting. Over 6 months for sure
Yea I think it's pretty solid too, definitely something I'd use. I could see it lasting over 6 months easily based on the durability, even a year, but in practice it will of course depend on everyone's unique environment.
I want to find the most durable graphene spray on product for the salt in the winters, but the ceramic sprays seem to be more durable still from what I've seen.
I think these are very different products. The Adam's Graphene Spray is a true coating, though in a spray application. I would consider this Renegade product to be a silica/graphene infused sealant. The Adam's product will definitely be harder to apply since it's a coating and would in my opinion be a better product, but this Renegade is very easy to use. So ultimately it just depends on your goals are and if you want a simple application.
@@DmitrysGarage Should be "easy", look for a Static Charge Meter. The problem will be to standardize application, since friction ("buffing off the product") could interfere drastically with the test. But again, if a product needs 10 passes to buff off, that is just bad. Love your channel man.
D, i have the Simoniz Glas coat ceramic on my s4, and use the spray wax every 2 weeks. But its feels like it needs to be clayed. I had a detail shop years ago and everything has changed, so i don't want to mess anything up. Do you think a light claying a ceramic coat will take it off?
I think using a very light clay carefully may still keep the coating, but if it's been years it's probably time for a decon, polish and new coating. I know coatings promise X years of performance, but as you're finding after a few years you want to re-do it if you drive the car often. I still like high durability coatings, because they also have good chemical resistance and if one does a fantastic job I know it will last until I want to re-coat it rather than worrying about early failure. However, those coatings promising 5, 10, 20, whatever years is kind of a gimmick, you cant daily a car for 10 years and not want to re-do it. For me the limit is about 3-4 years at absolute maximum, and I don't even drive the cars that much since I don't have an office to drive to, some guys just re-do every 2 or 3 years.
Yea there are so many products, and they're better than ever. This is actually why I do this, because I want to be able to decide what product is right in which situation. I do keep charts on my site, here is the chart for current testing: dmitrysgarage.com/wax and there is a chart in the garage drop down for the older 1.0 EOL test. The way I think about it is what sort of product I want (spray, coating, etc...) and then look at the table and think about the qualities most important to me for the project.

Sounds like I need to add this to my arsenal. Still waiting for your test/evaluation on Cerakote ceramic paint sealant. Thanks Dimitri!
Its coming:)
I am really looking forward to your review since I consider you the #1 source! Also, any opinion on Lucas slick ceramic spray?
@DmitrysGarage Dimitri, I just used Cerakote and it is now my favorite! Looking forward to your review to see if you're equally impressed.
@@cindykeselowski899 Awesome, appreciate the insight :), that one will absolutely be coming. Just gotta get the other batches ahead of it out!

What spray ceramic/graphene has had the best durability out of everything you've tested?
Would you recommend this or the Adams graphene spray version?
Would like to know as well

If you recommend it?
Test Dust attraction/repellence, please.
This is definitely something I'm considering adding. Not quite sure how to achieve it yet, but it's on my list.

Have you done a review on the

I've not yet, but it's on my list now :)
Awesome love to see what you think. The videos looks sketchy and there’s No reviews on UA-cam…you would be the first
I don’t even know what to buy anymore to be honest
