I bought Griot's garage ceramic 3 and 1 spray wax based on your reviews and was not disappointed. Now I have purchased fuso soft 99 original also based on your tests and I'm sure I will not be disappointed again. Thanks thanks for the great videos and all the hard work!

Amazing video output lately, thanks for all the updates!

I concur as even on my personal testing heat and moisture (early am) can really give any coating a good beating that’s why these type of REAL world test are important so manufacturers can see where they can improve their product, I have really yet to see a coating of any sort with a ton of UV/UVB protection coz that’s where it all boils down to. We can all have the slickness and hydrophilic/hydrophobicity which for me are just a bonus because the two main reason for detailing cars is to clean and protect/preserve the cars appearance both inside and out.

Love Tec580. My go to!! Thanks for everything you do!!

See, Nano Age/ Nano Bond STILL kills it after every test. It stacks up well against the name brand competition. My money went to that bottle, and will continue to. Impressive from an 'off brand' product

Truly impressed on how and inexpensive product like CQUARTZ lite is holding it's own 8 months into this test. Thanks for the updates Scott, have a great week.

[karlinwilliamson]

Awesome work! Fusso and Cquarzt are looking great ! Thank you for your research, time and expertise 😊

[simasm.]

yeah, that carpro lite look just as good as the uk3.0 wow great stuff definitely going to be my first coating to apply, for me it's really cheap compared to uk3.0. Fusso is still kicking it known legend

[boskosdoghouse]

Nice update....I applied Fusso and Griots 3 in 1 in a 3 step method over 4 days on my truck this weekend.
Thanks for your information, I hope I created a hydrophobic monster...lol

I put meguiars hybrid ceramic spray wax on my wheel faces while dry and it has been going strong for like 10 months. I also applied it to a different vehicle's paint while dry and it was smeary and hard to wipe off. I didn't use a damp cloth though and that may be the trick. Griots 3-1 is a much easier application. For actual coating Cquartz Lite is unbeatable bang for your buck.

Looks like the hood could really use chemical and/or clay decontamination...hard to say with certainty from looking at it through the video, but most if not all of the coatings are displaying hydrophobics that I typically see from panels with embedded contaminants (a consistent pattern of flat-ish beads left behind every time the majority of the water evacuates). I know it's not something you have done part-way through testing before, but I have a feeling we could see a big difference now with decontamination, much more significant than just doing it at the end of the testing process. And it makes sense too, as decontamination is worth considering every ~6months for most areas where a vehicle is not garaged, so the test would offer real-world utility.

Really appreciate all the testing you're doing. Looking most forward to the results of the glass panels!

There are other reviews of Fusso’s new formula worth watching. Dmitry’s Garage (out of Houston) is a great resource, as he’s compared the new and old at-length. I’ve even seen an interview with their UK-based chemist, which I think is on Fusso’s YT channel.

Anyhow, pretty certain the PTFE is still in there, but tweaked to smell and apply better. Ultimately you aren’t a man if you got the new stuff. It doesn’t grow hair on your forehead like the old stuff does. 😂

Thanks Scott!

I'm still rooting for CQuartz lite to outlast them all and with this update it appears it just might do that.

[youtubingman]

Always awesome to see these videos! Have u tried 3D ceramic coat yet?

[mgp]

still love to see uv and corrosion protection testing

[nachomandetailingservices]

I need you to do test with stuff I use please notify me when you do I using dura coating Technology products . I feel and know there the best out there I am using there graph-flash. Right now and it’s absolutely amazing water falls right off. Not like these I see on this hood. Best out of them on hood is C quarts but still no match for dura coating stuff. I am in texas let me know.

[vtecaccord]

Definitely would love to see and iron decon wash along with water spotless remover spray down and rinse and see what comes back. I know with OP if you hit it with water spot remover tends to come back. It gets clogged pretty quickly.

[MrLegacyGT]

How come the uk3.0 topped with Sic (what's labeled as ethos graphene) is performing worse (imo) than either 3.0 or sic separately further down on the hood?

[TheKilladp]

Can you test Technicians Choice TEC582 Ceramic Detail Spray (16 OZ)

[peteyification]

Jaxwax... 4 year coating, my ass! 😂 I'm going on a year and a half with my application, and it's still going strong, but that's probably because I wash mine more often and also use a topper every so often. Definitely going to be switching to CQUK next time, though!
