Any decent ceramic/graphene AIO?

The trick is to lay it on very thin, or you can dislocate your elbow trying to buff off. I have a can if you want to try it out.

Thanks, but if the wax urge takes me I've got Collinite, Light Fantastic, and Blue Velvet I can use, if I really want to. I'm really trying to de-clutter my shelf at the moment. I appreciate the offer though.

Collinite 845 did it to me as well, but it didn't happen until the car sat out in blazing sun on a hot day. I had hazy patches all over the car where I'd applied it a bit too thick. Fortunately a quick wash or a little QD and a MF towel fixed things.

Same, sat in parking lot at work all day before I moved to nightshift. In the garage it was fine. Buffed off easily enough with a QD. Just annoying.

De-cluttering is so satisfying. About to do it some more. Bought all three stages of Jescar polish on super-sale about 5 years ago because they were so cheap but have literally never opened them. When reaching for polish my hand never passes up Perfet Finish. Mind as well toss the Jescar ones. Thankfully they're the small 8oz bottles. I don't trust chemicals after 5-6 years. That's just me though.

Going by the SDS and ingredient sheets both products are identical. I'm going to email Sonax and ask them to find out for sure. If they are in fact the same the 500ml of Ceramic Polish for $1 more than 250ml of 02-06 is a bargain.

I'd also like to ask them about cure time and how soon I can top their ceramic spray coating with ultra slick detailer since it isn't specific on either bottle.

Sonax got back to me and said:

Ceramic Ultra Slick Detailer can be applied directly on top of Ceramic Spray Coating instantly, there is no cure time.

Ceramic AIO and 02-06 are very similar. 02-06 has a little more protection and a little more cutting added to it, but it is not that drastic of a difference. The Glaze and AIO are both made with similar ceramic properties as the Spray Coating and Ultra Slick Detailer, so again there is no cure time and you can instantly apply those on top of the Glaze/AIO.

I've not tried any of the modern offerings. 3D Speed is my go-to for cleaner waxes.

Though I give up a lot of correction power, Duraglos 101 is a very robust sealant with cleaners and a very light diminishing abrasive. (they say the abrasive is similar to those used in the dental industry). Easily maintained with AquaWax to boost the sealant (Even works great as a stand alone).

I use the Optimum Hyper Twims sometimes. I believe their new Hyper AIO has a ceramic component added to the formula.

I honestly don't know what these ceramic or graphene additives do for the final results. Do they offer more gloss? More durability? Both?

Dr. Beasley's also has a polish that they consider a coating - if I remember correctly.

Personally I have good success with Jescars spray ceramic, but like most stuff I use it's getting long in the tooth lol. The Jescar Ultralock plus is easy to use between application and removal maybe a half hour or so for an average size care. By the time you are done applying where you started is ready to buff off. And boy does it buff easy. Joy to use. If you don't mind a more traditional cream product.

I don't think there is anything wrong with using products that have been around for a long time.

If they work well enough for ya, keep using them.

It's called Z1 and it's part of their NSP (Nano Surface Primer) line. It's a ceramic AIO. Mike Phillips said that with the NSP's you use half as much and work for twice as long. I played around with Z1 a little and found that I had to use twice as much, as well as working it for twice as long, as some other light polishes like Menz SF 4500 or OPT Hyper Polish, or Zaino ZAIO, to get the same correction. (it may be that with the non-AIO NSP's, you don't need as much product, but I haven't used any of them yet)

I was just doing some test spots so I don't really have anything to say about the protection from Z1, but Dr. Beasley's does say it's more of a sheeter than a beader, but of course since it's a primer, you can also immediately top it with another coating.
