    I started using Auto Finesse ceramic snow foam after washing and detailing my car last November.
    I stopped using wax for the same reason you stated which was time verses outcome, especially during the cold winter months.
    The results I am getting are as good if not better than using wax, I also found that they cover all of those hard to get to areas like door shuts and panel gaps in the body work which a wax would struggle to cover which in my book gives better protection.
    I always fully rinse my wheel arches and I now use the product to spray these areas to provide even better protection for my car.
    I will give this new product a go when my current ceramic snow foam has run out, thank you for another great video.
    Best wishes

    Great video, I do similar. After you have washed your car, get a 5 litre pump spray put 5 caps of Turtle wax ceramic wash and wax in, mix, fill up with 5 litres of water and spray away, rinse and repeat for layering if required. I use a 5 litre spray because it saves time and is easier than keep filling a small cannon up, and it’s very inexpensive.

    You wax a car to seal the paint surface and protect the finish. I live in Australia and it gets up to 45 c in summer. Cars that are not waxed have their top coat peeling in three years. I have a couple of cars and one of them is a 25-year-old Toyota Camry that lives outside in the elements. The paint, apart from life, with a few scratches is nearly in showroom condition, why? Because I wax it with a non-abrasive wax, not polish but wax.

    I have been using a similar product from an Italian big brand for a few years in my cars. Initially I used fusso coat or meguiars ceramic wax. With each wash I applied this product. With a lack of time, I started using only the product as protection between washes and even stopped using sealant on the windows. Sometimes they go more than 2 months without washing, around 2500/3000km between washes, in conditions of heavy rain, mud, that sea air that leaves a film of salt... and even so, the protection is there when I wash again. At least 30/40 minutes I save on washing.
    Honestly i don't remember the last time i apply wax in my cars😂 maybe 3 years or more.
    I have to see if I can find a reseller that ships to my adress because I was curious to test it.
    In respect for yumcars i will not tell what brand i'm talking but simple googling everyone can find easily.

    In a business context, these are amazing. Cheap, quick, easy to apply with good results. I tried autoglym polar series, and really didn't like it, the way it worked , how it looked next to wax/spray wax / rinse wax, and how long it lasted. I also didn't like it coating the front glass either. I felt like I lost control of the process, but I see Bilt Hmaber has a refomulation of touch on. This can be applied a few ways, and this might be my new winter wax top up :) Also works with touch less. For the record I do still love the TW rinse n shine and gyeon wet wax.

The Halfords ceramic foam is pretty good too - not much difference from Valet Pro Snow Shield.

    Brilliant Dave, I started following your channel about 2 months ago, and man have I learnt so much. I'm not into doing anything like a business but still for someone who want to show some pride in their cars. You are the main man with all the knowledge. Question Dave I'm living across the pond in Ireland. After watching you it's given me belief at almost 60 I need to buy a decent power washer. The amount of cash I spend between going to the garage and just paying to use their equipment, plus I can get it detailed sometimes twice a year. I have seen most of your reviews on power washers, but I understand you need to try and keep most of the companies somewhat happy in what and how you say something. I need a good recommendation on what power washers I should be looking for, where overtime I can add to it. Just remember, in Ireland, we wouldn't have a big market for reconditioned washers
    Even if you could give me 3 options, a max budget to get me stared of maybe €600 that's roughly £525. Again THANK YOU. YOU THE MAN

    I have always waxed my cars, but with my latest car, my ceramic coated M2, I have simply been using a mixture of 1 part P&S dream maker with 9 parts P&S bead maker.
    As I wash my car every week, longevity of the product isn't a factor.
    The two products mixed and applied from a hand spray, only needs a tiny amount of misting on the panel, and it doesn't matter if it's boiling hot or freezing cold, it seems exactly the same.
    Beading to die for, and a lovely gloss.
    No rubbing, no buffing, literally mist a panel and spread the product out. Once every panel is done, a quick once-over with a quality soft microfibre to just remove any slight haze, and that's it.
    I know it wont last long, but it doesn't matter as I do it every week. I have used about 100ml of product after 4 applications.

      You can spend a fortune on microfibre cloths, but are they really any better ?
      I buy Halfords brand, because they are cheap, but feel quite soft, and I have not had any issues. I think it's more important to use clean cloths, and don't use the same one for different tasks. I buy 10 cloths for about £7, so when they start to look worn, it's cheap to just buy another 10 new ones.
      I cut the labels off, and try not to let the edges contact the paint, as those two things are the most likely to cause any slight scratches or marring.
      Don't get caught up in the microfibre pile rating, it's easy to spend far too much on cloths and waste a lot of money. Just use your common sense, and feel the cloth, if it's soft and has a decent pile, it will be fine mate !
      I think the most important thing is to use the same cloths for the same tasks (if you buy multi coloured packs, you can use the same colours for the same tasks so you don't get mixed up, like blue for glass cleaning, orange for paint, etc.
      Hope this helps, I have been detailing for many years, and it's very easy to get caught up in the hype, and spend a LOT of money, when really it is not necessary mate.

    I have been using synthetic wax (ceramic). Works like magic and stays for very long. Some issues, like you mentioned, is that washing the car most likely means having to reapply the coating, which takes at least half an hour every time.
    My work-around is to not wash the car too often. Instead I keep a couple of microfiber towels in the car, and when I see that dirt has started to amass I take about 5 minutes to wipe it all off and wash the cloth. Not using car-schampoo all the time would also maintain the coating for longer. But if you drive everyday and in dustier terrain I think applying ceramic wax after every wash is silly, unless you of course really doing the manual work.

After washing and drying you can back the car in and shut the doors to keep the atmospheric dust from landing on the freshly waxed surface.

    I like to wax the car in the spring and for autumn and winter I clear it off and use a ceramic sealant like Flex Wax which I top up with weekly washes. I just like applying wax for the warmer months, the sunny days. I don’t know why. I think it’s just that feeling of spending a few hours outside, polishing and waxing. Something comforting about it.

      The build up you are 100% right on, most products act as a make up on the clearcoat whereas Foam+ chemically cross links with the clearcoat. This is why you see a different level of hydrophobics, actually gloss increase and it will never clog itself

    Really like your videos as they help me look after my '18 X5 (pride & joy). But just equipped myself with the Autoglym Polar range & blaster - it works, and the sealer is excellent. I may move on to the Yum when I've used up current supply, but please help. I also bought the Autoglym Rapid ceramic spray after another of your videos. Should I be applying this spray AFTER the sealer, or do they do the same job? I'll keep watching, enjoying and trying out many of the things you show. Keep it up. Chris

    Been using Auto Finesse's Lavish for a few years now. Similar stuff it seems. I use it particularly in winter when I just can't stand being outside that much. So I do a rinse to get mud and stuff off, then Bilt Hamber Surfex HD, then BH Touch-Less, then the BH Korosol, then a good rinse again, then the Lavish. It clearly isn't detailing it, but it just makes the car look presentable without even touching it, and it takes about an hour. Perhaps you could do a video (if you haven't) - is it possible to get a car looking good without touching it?

    I'm guessing this is similar to Carpro's HydroFoam (part of the Hydro lineup, which is their ceramic sealant, and comes in a number of forms/concentrations). We don't have Yum products in my country but we get Carpro. I recently went through the same thought process as you - my father's car is 20+ years old and hasn't been well maintained for ages now. Our country is tropical and very hot; people used to use synthetic liquid waxes for a long time but nowadays graphene and ceramic spray sealants are the rage. I used Gyeon Wet Coat on my father's car because I already had it (I use it for my wheels) but will probably get HydroFoam in the future. I don't like waxes for my dad's car - it's a black car and it's 38C in the sun for us humans - any wax will be getting boiled on that black paint!
    My own car is ceramic coated with Carpro CQuartz Pro, my maintenance wash routine is prewash with Koch Chemie GSF, contact wash with Carpro Reset, and then yes I actually do simply dry it without a finisher 😂 Reset does wonders already. Every 2 months I top the car up with Carpro Reload as a finisher. I don't like to put any other sealants on the paintwork, nothing compares to the slickness of the ceramic coating (regularly topped up by Reload) so far.

  • @ianm4316

    The reason I used waxes before going onto ceramic coatings was the slickness and the gloss shine. There is a difference between wax and ceramic coatings as to the depth in gloss.The spray your putting on looks to be more of a water repellent? What is the gloss on the paint compared with this product to a wax? or a ceramic coating?

    I'd say it's good to use to top up protection over a ceramic sealant but on its own it doesn't actually provide much protection.

    If your car is exposed to the elements 24/7, I agree that wax isn't the best option anymore. If you have a garage and use it, modern synthetic blended and SiO2-based waxes can and will last a year or longer. My car is garaged daily and has had a coat of Meguiar's hybrid ceramic on it for over a year now. It still beads decently. Waxes are also less expensive and much less of a pain to apply than coatings (paint prep).
    The ceramic foam is an interesting idea, but I can't imagine it has the durability of even a spray sealant. No doubt the formula will improve over time and become a real player in the protection arena.

      And also this does not water spot as foam+ has an inbuilt safety factor
