Thanks Martin!, yeah completely agree with you there tyre serum FTW 👌

Did you get all the crap it gathers around the tyre over the duration too ? I’ll def try it again over winter just to see 👌

Maybe that wipe off prevents the build up of gunk around the sidewall when you clean it ??

Yeah you’ll not see a YUM’s product on this channel 😂😂

Thanks mate, most preferred undress product is def Autoglanz Rebound, I helped in the development of the product and was just pipped at the post with the name but Rebound is very good 😅

I’ve seen a lot more ‘conditioning’ types emerging inc graphene ones , not sure about how graphene can help a tyre dressing but that’s what’s next on the new tyres 🤔

@@GMDetails It will be interesting to see what you think about it.

Aw you watched to the end 👌👌 Yeah I’ve got water based, silicone, graphene, conditioners, solvents ……… Goes on and on 😂

I’ve one product to try out on the new wheels, but I don’t think it’s going to last too long before tyre serum is back

@GMDetails you're right I've tried others and there's no comparison to GT serum

I know!!, the whole point was I was trying something that’s all over CZcams and I didn’t get on with it , I never use brushes like this but seemed like I was missing out on something amazing, clearly not 😂

Thank you very much for that feedback mate!!, really appreciate that!!, my outright honesty is certainly the backbone of the channel and it’s one of very few to be believed (even if I do say so myself 😅) If someone asked what I would choose between Alpha wax and Helios ceramic I’d choose Helios for sure!!

Thanks again Adrian!, oohhh I have always wanted to try Moonlight but keep forgetting about it , an age thing 😂 Yes ordinarily I would certainly avoid a newcomer brand to ceramic coatings for testing unless it was only on a test panel , thanks for the info on moisture that’s a good tip 👌

🦅 and 🌳😂 yes, but!!, that was my point, there wasn’t much surface contamination on it , a little but not a lot 🪄 The tips on the nozzles are a real hard rubber and I got them off Ali Express mate, size 040 orifice and stainless steel I’ll check out the Kamikaze product 👌

Thanks Lee!!, you’ll find GT tar a tad slower but one you can leave and go for a brew!, come back and a gentle wipe it’s removing just the same as the aggressive solvents , the detail bug one is A-Chem I’m sure and very similar to Tardis 🤔

More on that soon!! 👌

@@GMDetails I thought that might of been a mistake? As 500 litres per minute is unheard of. A commercial one will do about 40 per min.

Wait did I say per minute?? 😳

Dammit what a clown I am!!, just over 500L/HR mate THANK YOU for highlighting this mistake 👍👍

Hi, is it on the whole car or maybe localised to a single panel or areas?

@@GMDetails Just localised, centre front of the bonnet mainly, almost like water marks but worse and overall an area of a 2 pence. A couple of other smaller marks, also left and right near bonnet edge. All on the bonnet now I think of it. I traded the car a couple of weeks ago now, otherwise I could have taken pictures. The reason I ask, is so I know whether to use a ceramic coating in future or not.

Ah that’s a shame we couldn’t have got to the bottom of it , could have been a variety of things anywhere from a previous repair that you may not have known about through to bird poo etching , hopefully you won’t be put off using one again as a coating won’t cause any damage to the substrate if you’re using a reputable brand

Try using a water spot remover on it. Some ceramics are prone to water spotting. If that fails you've got to machine polish. Unlikely to be bird droppings with the amount of marks you describe.

Thanks Simon 👌

@@thedetailinghobbyist thanks Craig!, so easy to use as well 👌

@@SparkleanAutos cheers mate , it was by no means perfectly jewelled or anything but it certainly brought the gloss out for sure 👌

@@GarageTherapyOfficial thank you 👌

@@Richard_Details thanks for the feedback mate 👍 My problem is time, some can do a whole clean & polish in a few hours they must be going like the clappers Thing is if you want to have a go, there’s nothing to say you can’t do various bits over different weekends instead of having to do the full car 🤔

@@gillywash1487 certainly are a lot of options now from GT , it’s certainly been a great opportunity to try one out but wouldn’t be beneficial to put one on my car as trying other products would clog it quickly and affect its longevity AND what new thing I was trying out , but I am looking forward to the next clean with it to see what it’s like

@@paulquickmire4140 aw thanks for the amazing feedback there !, I did take your considerations into account while editing so I’m glad it helped you to understand a bit more of the process , thanks again Paul 👌

Thanks Paul!, well I hope you get good use out of it mate that’s the whole point of videos like this to be used as a reference aid, GT really has made decontamination easier

Glad you enjoyed it Mark!, I do have a certificate, from Chemical Guys 😂😂

@@GMDetails haha well enough said then...

Great point! I like them but for things like iron remover and tar remover I’m going to start removing them , I’ve had Tolco ones fail too with alkaline wheel cleaners etc so again it’s all about looking after your equipment 👍

@@patrickvennard838 there’s a few in the same category it’ll be good to move up a level and test a few together 🤔

@@DetailBase beading is lovely , I’ll send you a video of when it rained when I next cleaned it ☔️

Aw you’re too kind Ben 👍👌

@@sixtysecondsofstephens2386 indeed!, most pro detailers will have your car minimum 3 days so the costs for time certainly mount up

Thanks for watching 👍

You like that ? 😀🎥

@@GMDetailscan’t be /Zero: range for a good Decon… you could have gone further with the P’s- Pre Polish Preparation Prevents Protection Products Piss Poor Performance

@@gillywash1487 I did something like that before 😅 but that is class 😂😂

It’s certainly a lot of hard work, this took just over 2 days to get looking this way, a weekend gone but the results are a lot better after taking the time spent on it 👌

Thank you mate!!, I really was nervously applying it knowing what can go wrong but this coating really doesn’t have any of the issues some do, and none of the hard Mr Miyagi wax on wax off buffing, it’s no wonder Maz loves a coating over wax

Thanks Colin!, it’s incredibly gentle on paint but always being mindful of pressure with it and plenty of lube!, I haven’t experienced any marring with it yet but I only tend to use it before polish anyways

Thanks , I’d rather apply this than ANY wax as it’s just so easy but price would possibly sway me back if it’s like double the price or something , prices should be available early August

@@GMDetails it does look a lot less daunting than other ceramic coatings I've seen applied, but again price would be a key consideration. Really great work and it shows in the final result!

Nice work. Good to test yourself. For me, I have one big issue with these ceramics and ceramic lites. Correct me if I'm wrong, but when the coating mostly dies, you need to remove the remnants using a polisher? I don't have one and I'm not going to hand polish. To remove Sonax BSD, AG Polar Seal or BH DSW you just need, well time, and to use Megs Wash Plus and/or GT Decon a couple of times. It's such a deal breaker for me. As I said, please correct me if I'm wrong.

@@pigeonpoo1823 that’s a bloody good question!, I’ll certainly try and find out an answer for you I didn’t think of that element to them at all 👌

If you're using a one year coating you don't have any worries. Think of it like this: one year has passed, so time to decon (mech & chem) so light polishing IS required anyway. Another one year coating is applied. It actually my process but you're right, you need a machine.

Oh thank you !! It sure has been a while since I used GT for a full video and you certainly forget how good they are!!

You’re very welcome Martin!, hope you enjoy them as much as I do 👌

That’s brilliant to know as results can vary depending on location with washing frequencies and quality of water etc so thanks for the info 👍👍

@@GMDetails with pleasure. Also BSD can be a drying aid or stand alone application. But parla needs dry surface i noticed, does not keep itself if u apply it as a drying aid. :)

@@NoFix I’ve just been experimenting with some other ceramic sealants as wet applications, something they’re not designed for but some can and some can’t , things like this just interest me maybe a little too much 😅

@@GMDetails haha i found my twin then. I like to experiment also. Even combining different products. 2 weeks ago i combined parla and BSD in a bottle and it gave clotts 🙈. Just to say, i experiment also. For now fusso coat+bsd on every wash got my girlfriends car almost a good 10 months protection before the lower doors started to get hit. Yesterday i applied fusso coat on mine and im gonna do a test with parla after every wash now. 🤓 Every few weeks i order a few new products which i think is good and try them. Last one was Bilt Hamber speed wax. Not bad but i found it annoying that the wax “sweats”. Also Soft 99 the glaco for on the mirrors does an amazing job for my rear view camera which is exposed. On the mirrors it gives a slight smoky tint, but for the camera its perfect. Yesterday tried also the compound of soft 99 before fusso and it was superbe also. Even did the windows with it and i was pleasently surprised.

@@NoFix I love this!!, your passion and enthusiasm is absolutely brilliant !!!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge I never knew speed wax sweats, that would be quite annoying I’ll remember if it happens to me you said it first 👌

Glad you liked it

Nice to know it’s not just me 😅

I’ll need to check my bottle as I don’t remember it saying it’s 25ml to 200ml dilution 🤔 25ml in the 500ml solution is 19-1 dilution and stronger than Autoglanz recommends to start at 25-1 but due to the level of dirt but it keeps the balance between the two products exactly the same (or as best as I could) Thanks for watching 👌

@@GMDetails Thanks for the Reply apprenticed, I might of got it wrong could be 20ml to 200ml water, but in testing this stuff seems impressive 👍

@@tripsingh3642 it is very good don’t get me wrong , it’s so versatile but dilutions are quite confusing on the website I feel 👍

Thank you 🙏👍

Thanks for watching 👍

Thank you for subscribing!!, glad you liked the video 😃

@@GMDetails You’re welcome!! Gone through some of your other reviews, especially the Karcher pressure washer ones. I’ve got an ‘old’ K5 (2012) which is still serving me well, but it’s good to see how the newer ones perform especially from professional detailers like yourself. I fully agreee on the standard hoses!! They’re TERRIBLE!! 🤦🏾‍♂️. Karcher really need to stop using those plastic crappy things and use better quality rubber ones as you’ve suggested. Top channel 👍🏾👍🏾

@@vibez_kru01 thanks again!! 🙏

It happens but twice a year ☀️🤣
