Give this guy an award! Best in-depth review out there.
I know right. He didn't spend 20 minutes before the video started spouting off about useless drivel. I came here for a product comparison and that is exactly what was provided. Kudos to him for showing every one else on UA-cam how it's meant to be done.
Same with everything he does.
The hydrophobicity of that Nova Jet at the end is some of the craziest I've ever seen, the water is scared to death of it! Mental!
Shine Armor has banned me on Facebook for pointing out that you should not wipe dirty panels with a MF because, as demonstrated, it'll just scratch the paint.
All depends on what product you are using as a waterless wash. The carpro product left virtually no marring.
I agree makes me cringe people wiping a dirty car... wash it first.. 😑
Lmao you can get it at Ross for less than advertised
@@maurobeltran3072 yes I tried buying it at Ross. When I opened the box it was a bottle of fabric freshener
If my car is very lightly soiled I'll use a quick detailer. But if its filthy, there is no way I'm doing that
I'm always amazed at how I can always see exactly how the products perform in your videos Sandro. They have no equal on YT inho!
Thank you so much for this! I'm always bombarded with ads on Facebook for these three products and can't believe how many people fall for it. I'm happy to try new products and brands but when they spend more money on marketing than researching the product, I tend to steer clear.
Sandro, thanks very much for doing this video. Finally a quality review on these products. As I thought they are nothing but snake oil salesmen. I've only really been I to detailing for a couple of years now and must admit I bought Hydrosilex in my early days before I knew anything detailing. I never used it till about 3 months ago just to get rid of it. It lasted only one wash and was outperformed EASILY by 303 Touchless Sealant which I use when I'm in a rush. I will post this vid on each and every ad I see on FB from now on. Thanks bud. Great work as always.
You hit it out of the park with this comparison. Very well done and very informative.
i can't believe how detailed and proven all of this videos man thank you so much for the effort you put into each video and thank you so much sharing your experience with us
Another great video...
To be frank this channel has become my go to detailing channel.
I’ve wondered about these products, especially F11 and Shine Armor for quite some time, thanks for the review Sandro!
I've use f11 on all 3 of my black vehicles and I love it. I was nervous at first when my friend gave me some to try. I wasnt disappointed.
@@zerot678 If you follow F11 instructions, DON'T USE SOAP, and put on at least 4 coats with 24 hours between coats, F11 does what it says it will do. Also, it works at a microscopic level so requires very little product. I just rinse with water every week or two and dry. Then buff with clean microfiber towel to bring out shine. I put another coat of F11 on every month or two when water beading gets weak. I've used about a quart of F11 since Aug 2017 on my 2017 F250 and it still looks new.
@@gregstone3877 Jesus, if I had to put 4 lays of a product on with 24 hours between each coat, I’d get a better quality sealant... I’m a professional detailer and Nova Jet is what I use on almost every car, it’s phenomenal and only requires a single quote and only 2 hours to cure. You’re putting in way more effort than you need to!
This is, by far, the best review of any product(s) I have ever seen. 👏👏👏
This testing and comparisons were so good and will help me get the right stuff (nova jet) !!
Thank you, very well done and informative video. It's nice to see an unbiased well put together demonstration, gives consumers a side by side indication of how well each product performs under various conditions.
I love how meticulous you do it. Perfect! You saved me tons of time. I and my Maserati thank you so much!
I see these products so much on instagram that it definitely gets tempting to buy. I'm glad you did this video to really get a more in depth look at these products among an already proven product. Big ups to you for this one Sandro!
Thanks for taking the time to make an awesome video !!!
Best professional review.
Great work buddy.
Thank you.
best review I've seen on youtube great tests that cover almost all the attributes of the products immediately subbed good job man
Thanks for taking the time to produce this video! Very helpful!
Videos like this are the reason I keep the bell notifications on
I believe you used the last coat V1, they've had the last coat V2 out for a while now, it'd be interesting to see a head to head of Jet and TLC V2
Great review! I have a neighbor who used FW1 products and used it without washing the car first because that's one of their selling points. Before he did, I told him not to because even with ONR always requires water, I told him because it made no sense. Well, he did it anyway and had a lot of swirls and you can imagine how disgusted he was. I used TLC2 instead of TLC because they are different made. Also, have used the new Turtle Wax Ceramic products as well as Meguiars Ceramic Wax and they are great because can be applied to trims without making them with white residues.
Xoxo from Puerto Rico 👍🇵🇷
Thank you for this review. It's the best if ever seen.
A++ review that’s all I can say. Well done.
Wow Jet put the others to absolute shame Sandro. Great test mate! I certainly appreciate your efforts buddy.
Thanks for putting in the time, effort and expense to make this video.
Very good and useful review, I can only say "Thank you"! It saved me some money...
Another great video!
Love the unbiased presentation as always :)
What a great comparison! Wow! Nice job man!
This is absolutely excellent! I love the "waterless car wash" test at the beginning that totally debunked any of the products as one. I knew people were destroying their paint with these products. I plan to post the link to this video in the comment section of every ad I see. Thank you, Sandro!
have you tried any of the new anti-static polishes
Ironically as im watching the waterless wash part of this test, an F11 commercial cuts in saying you can use it as a waterless wash and it won't scratch lmao.
Not to be confused with rinseless washing with something like Optimum No Rinse which when used properly seems to actually be a great product and is in the product arsenal of most detailers
Not really these products contain too much grease which makes it hard to wipe off easily. Shine Armor is my third product and I will not buy another.
Very very good review ! How it's supposed to be done ! So convincing !
Great job guys !
Sandro this one was a much needed one. Awesome job as always. The waterless wash side of the products is what I wanted to see. They make some big claims advertising. Nice to prove that it is not scratch free. Great work as always.
A very good unbiased review. Great job.
This was excellent. Very scientific.
This is just awesome and a great job at this test! well done, very informative!
As always, excellent video! Much appreciated
Thanks for this vid, appreciated.
Some of these product videos started to appear on my newsfeed on facebook. I really had hard time understanding the difference between them and was wondering if I can see pros and cons of these. This is exactly what I was looking for, a true comparison of all of these without imposing your own opinion and actually showing us their performance so that we can make our own decision.
Thanks alot!
You truly deserve an award! Well done and thank you! You have a new subscriber! :)
Thank you! I very much appreciate the detailed review which did not come across as a sales pitch for any of the products. Was doing my due diligence after seeing a Shine Armor ad on FB. Had to weed through folks going on and on about how amazing it was for several minutes without actually demonstrating it. Found your video which was a breath of fresh air.. Would have bought Nova Jet, but it was sold out.. Bought The Last Coat instead based on your video alone. Cheers!
Very helpful and informative! Nicely put together! Thank you!
Liked and subscribed 👍. Once again, you've spared no expense to bring is a quality, thorough and well thought out comparison of some very popular products. Well done! You've answered all my questions and more regarding these spray sealants and I love your non biased and honest reviews. You've really got my attention on the nova jet and wowed me with the Last Coat. Thanks again and I look forward to more great videos!
LOVE this review... I now know what one I am going to get for my Jeep
An honest no bullshit test of relentlessly pushed products. Ease of use is nice but if your car is worth the effort then its a no brainer. I love your reviews sandro. I also love the fact that you dont try to push products or influence people. Keep up the awesome videos. I have learned alot from just watching your videos so thankyou.
You have done a wonderful job, thank you for all the time you have put into this film for helping me make up my mind!
Very informative and well done!
Great review mate thanks for making this review 👍👍👍
Comprehensive testing. Your vids never dissapoints me.
Very good, complete, comprehensive review. 👍🏿
Wow !!!! Huge eye opener just wow
Fantastic product review!!! Thanks!
I had just purchased Shine Armor today, haven't opened it or used it yet. Based upon your review, however, it'll be going back to the store and I'll be ordering The Last Coat for a comparable price to Shine Armor. Nova Jet, for double the price, appears to outperform all so if money is no object, Nova Jet appears to be the winner.
Impressive. What we ALL learned: F-11 sux. Nova Jet: awesome. Thanks!
Wow i was about to buy f11.... and decided to watch a few videos before spending 60 bucks... thanks!
This is the best video ever
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
This was very helpful thank you so much.
This was very helpful.
Fantastic review!
awesome job on this video
In addition to the great information, this vid has some nice tunes... thanks for all the good work.
Hey Sandro! NV products are amazing...and Nova Jet is an absolute Beast! ‘That’s All’ ✌🏾😁
Excellent review. Thanks! F11 certainly has a ton of marketing to generate sales, but I'm glad I resisted the impulse go buy their product, until I had a chance to actually see a detailed review. Again....well done. Based on your review, the only spray on sealer that's worth my money would be Jet.
We purchased the JET and my husband applied it to one of our car's. Thank you for the review. He has used F11 it was given to him last October. He likes how it goes on fast. The Nova JET did take a little longer to apply. It makes the color of the car really nice. He has a little of the F11 left over he is going to apply it to half the hood of the other car we have and apply JET to the other side to do his own test.
Great to hear!
I've been using Shine armor for a while and I find the car benefits from repeated application of the product, as I'm sure all products will. I've ordered some TLC so keen to see how that goes. Thanks for the great review. And yes, none of these products should be sprayed onto a dirty surface and wiped off, that's just going to cause swirls and scratches no matter what, so that just shouldn't be advertised as an option.
Great video been wondering about some of these products.
Thanks man
Good stuff man
Nova Jet is the clear winner.
Awesome review.
Great comparison video with these products. The Last Coat and Nova Jet were the top two performers in these tests. Another test needs to be done due to the fact that The Last Coat came out with another version V2 and Top Coat F11 came out with F11 Pro.
Great review
Excellent review
love jet and seen some real testing on f11 was good
Thanks for the review , I bough a brand new Red car 🚘 and bough shine armour for cleaning but after watching your review , I am going to return it and just clean the car with water and cloth and will not damage the car paint using these products
Brilliant video very informative 👍
Thank you so much.
Super video. Nice
You got me after using F11and being happy with it I have decided to give NV Jet a go Cheers
This was an extremely in depth review and very well done. That being said, I only use F11 Topcoat on my 1974 Dodge Charger SE and couldn't be any happier. It also works fantastically well on my Harley Davidson...😎💯
Nice review,looks like the best product is Jet
Thanks Sandro. Results pretty much what most people expected I guess. Spray Sealants are the most over-hyped products in our industry so as you say, when you find one that works for you, stick with it 👍
Expect to see the number of hits for this video to skyrocket, when people from all over FB come to watch this
That jet spray performs incredible
Great video again Sandro, good to know about these products. I have been using Jay Lenos waterless wash ‘Eco Wash Kit’ for a while now on light dirt, great results.
Congrats for the 100k subs 🇳🇿
Just bought Shine armor! After viewing many reviews it will be returned! I have tried the F11 awhile ago to. So I will stay with my Mequiers ceramic spray on!
I've never heard of any of them but then I have a real life and don't use social media at all. The Nova Jet looks pretty amazing! Not sure if it's available here in the UK but I plan to look.
Topcoat F11 is a polydimethylsiloxane, or type of silicone oil but water based. It is not a polish or sealant...and when water or soap is applied to it, it will wash off your vehicle. Many shampoos use it to make hair shiny and slippery. This is NOT an automotive product, and no respectable detailer would ever use or recommend it. Nice Video!
So I bought into the last coat because of pan the organizer about a year ago. It was nice on the paint at first but didn’t last that long. Overall it wasn’t a huge problem because I use so many other hydrophobic toppers. Since I had so much left I switched to using it to spray on the wheels when wet rinse off. This is where my love hate relationship started. It absolutely looks amazing on wheels and does and excellent job resisting brake dust. However it’s chemical resistance is horrendous. One spray of any diluted cleaner and it’s gone.
As always, great video!! Really like your channel, not with promo products, but just your honest and really good tested reviews. Really love to watch and buy the products based on your test. I would love to see a test of the Meguiars Ceramix Wax spray Vs the new Meguiars Ceramix Wax Liguid, just to see if it really makes a different.
Very good video! Its amazing the # of people who fall for f11. It's insane priced. They could get the same result from any inexpensive detailer. Jet did great!
Thanks Sandro. I really enjoy the user experience of the NV Lustre and Jet combo. Would love to see you test some of the Turtle Wax and Megs Ceramic ranges which have recently come out. Maybe TLC can even send you a sample of V2 to put into the mix?
14:52 And that's one of the reasons why you're one of the top contributors in the youtube detailing segment. You're just devising good tests and showing us your findings.
Clicked on this video just to see how bad the products were, and while they're actually not horrible in their own regard, it's the marketing that makes them extremely unappealing. I don't try anything at all that comes with obviously deceiving marketing, even if the product is amazing. I just can't get behind a company with those dishonest tactics. Anybody who falls for that type of marketing deserves whatever product they get. You can call me an ass but it is what it is. They should just take it as a lesson to not be so gullible next time.
Keep up the great Work Sandro! Stick to your own opinions
and dont take heat from any detailing product company.
The the last coat person posting on and on about this version being there first
Formula. We get it! So you can stop with the comments.
Thanks for putting this video together... I've been seeing good stuff online about Last Coat, but better about version 2. Have you tested that one? Side note, nice tune at the 14:30 ish mark. I do want to say that your camera-work quality is top notch among all the detailers making vids.
Thanks, but no I still haven’t gotten around to testing V2.
Great vid. Excellent info. Wonderful Comparison. Thanks for posting. Idea for next Comparison.....Griots 3in1 ceramic vs Turtle ceramic spray vs Maguire ceramic spray vs The Jet. I think this would be a Excellent vid also. Thanks again
If only Griot's was available in Australia. TBO I think Jet would still smoke them all.
I sincerely appreciate this carefully designed, side-by-side test. I would also be interested in seeing a similar review that includes Superior Products Formula 4 Spray Wax.
The Last Coat 2.0 is awesome and will love see shoot out between Nova Jet, Gtechniq C2 Liquid Crystal, Car Pro CarPro HydrO2 and say Gyeon Can Coat. I have use TLC 2.O as toper on other ceramic coatings and works great or stand alone. TLC is probably too expensive to bring in to Australia just like bringing Nova Jet in the US. great video Sandro very honest and detailed testing as usual.
We'd love to bring Version 2 with an Australian distributor, we've talked to a few. You're right, the logistics can get pricey.
I was lucky enough to get TLC2 a while back when there was a 2 for 1 offer. Which made it a bit more affordable.
But with the Aussie dollar now even worse than what is was Vs the US Dollar. it's the conversion cost that makes if pricey here in Australia.
Still for what it is. It a great product
Purple Haze FFC thanks a ton. Yes it was a big difference over the original version shown in this vid. Thanks for the support, we’re hoping to be able to get some local distribution in Australia soon.
Great review and scientific approach to a very difficult arena of products to compare. I would have loved to see how the Turtle Wax Ceramic Spray coating stacked up against these.
Im glad I bought last coat you can see a big difference in the shine quality of the product vs F11 so I have seen many of these videos I have to say the last coat just seems to beat the snot out of the other seal coats
