    Haven't waxed a car since I bought my first chevy in the 80's. One trip to Griot's shop in Tacoma and now I've got two buffers and Griot's bag full of colorful little bottles and towels. In my driveway I've got the shiniest cars and motorcycles I've ever owned...... There's something alluring and peaceful about spending time detailing your own vehicle.
    Griot's video instructions have been a huge help to this noice.

    Love the 3 in 1 ceramic. In fact it's great on glass as well. Completely steak free. Most times I just rinse my car and dry it because dirt doesn't stick. I put it on 2 to 4 times a year because it very easy and quick.

    I used the 3 in 1 Liquid Wax on my dads new Ram and honestly it had the deepest shine and most slickness of any wax product I’ve used. Amazing product keep up the good work. One more thing all of the Griots products I’ve used smell amazing it makes detailing so much more enjoyable.

    Sometimes I think you (and everyone else) have way too many products, but then I see a video like this and I understand why. Thank you for clarifying your product line. I've gone from slightly overwhelmed to having a good understanding of what I need. Thanks. I'm going Poly Wax with either Spray on wax as a drying agent or Best of Show spray wax after drying for our 2022 vehicles.

    I bought a 2012 Jeep Liberty that had low miles but had obviously not been cared for. I washed it and then used a clay bar. I followed that up with Griots Liquid 3 in 1 wax (non ceramic) and a random orbital buffer with a medium cutting pad. After my first pass over the vehicle it looked like a different car. I switched to a finishing pad and hit it again. The Jeep had a new car shine to it when I was done. I was really happy with the product and have used other Griots products since.

    Can you use the 3 in 1 ceramic product on top of a Liquid Glass finish?

    • @GriotsGarage
      @GriotsGarage  2 роки тому

      the simple answer is yes, there’s a few things to keep in mind!⁠ When applying multiple layers of wax or sealant, always assess the protection and aesthetic properties of each. The extent of the protection will only last as long as your bottom layer provides, so you’ll want to use the more durable product as your bottom layer and allow it to cure for 12-24 hours. Your top layer will determine the gloss, shine, and hydrophobic properties.

    I have two applications of 3 in 1 ceramic wax on one car. Recently I washed the car with Foaming Surface wash, then followed with Foaming Poly Gloss. 48 hrs later I cleaned it with Speed Shine Ceramic. What have I done?

    • @GriotsGarage
      @GriotsGarage  4 роки тому

      Hey Mark, so with the stacking of products the top layer, in this case Ceramic Speed Shine, is serving as your protection. The base layer (Ceramic 3-in-1 Wax) will determine the duration of your protection and the amount of protection left depends on the application date. For future care, you can skip the Foaming Poly Gloss and use Ceramic Speed Shine after and between washes.

    • @GriotsGarage

      We actually suggest not putting any other waxes or sealants on top of the Ceramic 3-in-1 Wax as it will compromise the gloss, shine, and hydrophobicity. Feel free to use a quick detailer between washes though!
