    What's The Best Wax To Use?

    Just applied 1 full coat of Ethos Ceramic Wax & it is the real deal!
    Applied coat - let sit for 15min & wiped off with microfiber.
    There is a good 10-24 hour cure time - so the JUDGE is staying in the garage.

    The Ceramic Wax was $40 on Amazon - I will not pay for any other sealant or wax that cost more then this.
    Good thing is with this wax - a little goes along way.
    This bottle could possibly last me 5 years.

    Edit: I did make a big mistake - I applied the Dry & Seal first.
    I should have applied the Ceramic Wax first according to Ethos then let it cure for at least 24 hours - then apply the Dry & Seal.

    Dry & Seal can be applied to plastic as well - I applied 3 coats to my headlights and tail lights & also coated my bed caps and front bumper and rear bumber and Mirrors.
    Next spring I will purchase their (Ceramic Refesh Spray) and coat the whole Truck. (Glass & All) & skip the Dry & Seal all together.

    Oh well - Gloss & Shine is amazing! I'm still learning with these hybrid Ceramic / Sio2 products.
    My only question remains: Are they still worth the extra few $$?
    Is their protection & durability that much better then polymer/carnauba sealants & waxes?

    I like these products - due to I don't have to worry about getting them on the plastic trim / molding (They polish & protect them as well).
    No more white residue left! (Except for the Ceramic Wax).

    Edit: I still have 2 other favorites - Soak with foam gun with Turtle Wax ICE (Snow Foam Car Wash) Then use Turtle Wax ICE Seal N Shine & Turtle Wax ICE Spray Wax! Awesome Results!

    After a good coat of Carnauba wax I used Turtle Wax Ice liquid for maintenance. It is a cool produce that doesn’t leave white residue on anything!!!

    Had a really nice day today - My son spent all day on his 2014 GMC - He ordered the entire line of Hybrid Products off of Amazon and I will say - I am highly impressed.
    Will be interesting how long the protection lasts!

    What's The Best Wax To Use?

    My processes is wash with Chemical guys Maxi suds soap, and the honey do spray foam with my pressure washer for the normal maintenance wash then blow dry with my backpack sthl blower.

    when I do my "wax" time, I use the clay bar first to get rid of any containments. In the past I would use Jet Seal then put a coat of butter wax from Chemical Guys.
    Now I do the clay bar first then go to the new Turtle wax Seal n Shine and do 2 coats of it. After the normal maintenance wash I will use the Turtle Wax spray wax after each wash.

    I still have a few chemical guys products on my shelf.
    I got the wild itch to switch to Ethos & did and really liked what I seen and felt - but for way less $$ I felt the Seal & Shine gave the same or better results.

    But now - I personally feel - for the $$$ & pure quality of the product ----> I can't see myself applying anything other then these products from now on.

    https://www.turtlewax.com/pages/no1-products

    One of my favorites is the Seal & Shine
    https://www.turtlewax.com/pages/ice ---> Call me old fashion - that's ok - these products for the low cost are pretty remarkable & very easy to apply.
    (I'm all for getting up early and washing and detailing) but I've got other things to do the rest of the day.

    Still haven't found a tire dressing & protectant that I really like.

    I use nothing but this on my plastic trim - apply it right and it lasts easily all year.
    (It does suck to apply) I take my time and enjoy a few cold beers ---> https://www.cvs.com/shop/rust-oleum-...-prodid-412217

    TW has really stepped up their game - Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions --> (53479 / 53477 / 53759 / 53733)

    In todays world - I'm not sure their is a Best!

    Most importantly is preparation for the Wax & Sealant - & proper application. (A True Ceramic or Graphene Coating) is extremely high quality and durable.
    My Son - has me really believing in the Clay Bar prep!
    Though I don't do this step before every coat of Wax or Sealant.

    Every owner will have his or her own favorite brand.
    My son and I are & have been amazed by the results we get from the TW Hybrid Solutions Series!
    It's easy to find and acquire & will not empty your wallet.
