I saw that these people came with a 14-18 month durability ceramic coating for $29.97. I wonder how good it works on gloss and durability. Judging for The Loast Coat v2.0 which was night and day from v1.0 I guess this one might be pretty good against products like Gyeon Can Coat or Carpro Cquartz Lite.

Has anyone tried it yet?

Looks like any typical spray sealant. It won't compete with Cquartz Lite or Gyeon CanCoat. A resin based delivery application will not out perform a spray delivery "coating". CanCoat is an exception as it contains high solids in its resin.

If anything this would compete with Adams Spray Coating which is not even on the same level as CanCoat or CQ Lite. It is like comparing a polymer paint sealant and polymer spray wax. A paint sealant is going to perform better in the long run.
 
They claim 14-18 month durability yet dont tAlk at all about whats in it. No mention of self cleaning or beading/sheeting.

I’d be very surprised if you’d get even a year on it but i have heard good things about TLC2. I’ll stick with can coat an moonlight.

Isn’t Last Coat one of those F11-type gimmicky products?

Thank you for the clarification Guz, now the price makes more sense.

Well, I have Last Coat v2.0 on my wife's car and it performs really good, its been there for about 4 months and it still beads and sheets like crazy, granted every 2 washes I re apply it as a drying aid spraying 1 per panel, it also does a good job keeping itself clean and the gloss is really good too, its pricey but I like it.

Sounds like it might be close to a Can Coat, their web page recommends you throw the towel you used to apply it out.

Mothers said the same thing with CMX and look how well that turned out. Did not meet that 1 year claim when most were stating 3-4 months. This last coat will compete against spray sealants like CMX, Turtle Wax spray coating , Adams Spray coating, etc.. CanCoat is on another level compared to these spray "coatings".
 
I watch out for all those FB detail products (dont have FB). That being said I found Hydro Silex through another source and was impressed with it as a product. I’d put it up against any other $30 sealant.

Was gonna do hood 50/50 with cancoat and Moonlight but with tac not being available from US distributor was gonna use DR Beasley’s Plasma coat. Maybe this if i can take something else out of detailing budget

I don't doubt the claims are over exaggerated, but Last Coat v2 was spoken of very favorably by a lot of detailers. I know some people poo on it due to the high price, but it's the same price as Reload and lasts quite a bit longer. The Black version's basically 4x the price. I wouldn't expect 4 times the longevity, but if people are getting 4-5 months out of the Last Coat V2 this should perform a decent amount better. I tend to ignore detailing products I get videos for all the time on YT, but it looks like the people behind TLC make real products. I can't comment on the high pricing as I have a cabinet with a bunch of Polish Angel, Gyeon & other brands. So I'm kinda deadened to overpaying lol. They also recommend you do an IPA wipedown before applying, which they don't for TLC. I suspect Brian from Apex will review this soon, I'm curious to see what he thinks of it.

Agreed. Anything that recommends throwing out your towel must be legit.

Well, they're suggesting you toss the towel because the SiO2 will harden in it. If there's actually enough to do that, which I have no idea, it at least means the product has a decent amount of SiO2 in it.
 
The Last Coat has been proven to be the "Real Deal" and the best of the Facebook sealants. It did well with Jimbo and Pan the Organizer. I would like to try it, but its too expensive for what it does.
 
Welcome to AG!

I don’t know much about TLC, but Pan says a lot of things are good as long as they’re sponsors.

Pan, I dunno... some of his videos really seem like sponsored infomercials, Jimbo absolutely crapped all over TLC v1 and said he didn't even want to try v2. But he ended up testing it and really liked it which is a good sign. I don't really like Jimbo's testing methods, but it seems like he give an honest opinion. Brian from Apex likes it, and he's pretty much my go-to since he's unbiased and I don't think could be bought off. The price is good compared to stuff from Gyeon & Carpro. But I could get Meg's Ultimate Fast Finish or TW S&S for like half the price, so I'm not in a rush to try TLC. With that said, I'll probably end up buying a bottle as my curiosity will get the best of me eventually.

I’ve seen couple video’s that show it lose to different “Facebook” sealants. East coast jeep has a youtube video 50/50 with Hydro Silex and after a few hours you can see the TLC side is covered in pollen and the Hydro Silex side is doing just fine.


Don’t know if it was v1 or v2 it was published 4/21/2019

I thing Megs Ultimate Fast Finish is discontinued, I still have 2 bottles left but I cant find it anywhere but amazon from only 2 sellers and is overpriced.
I dont get why Megs would do that to such a great product
