Comment from AutoGlym UK:
"The plan was to make something that was as "un-mess-up-able" as possible, but that still really delivered. Keep it off the rubbers and don't let it dry on and you will be fine. Even then, the preparation product will remove it from rubbers and if it dries during application, just add more Ceramic Coating to re-hydrate the product. No need to machine it off as with some other types of product."
I know Im kind of randomly asking but do anyone know of a good site to watch new tv shows online?
@Flynn Braylon Ehh I watch on Flixportal. you can find it by googling :) -terry
@Terry Esteban Thanks, I signed up and it seems like a nice service :D Appreciate it!!
@Flynn Braylon glad I could help =)
Nice to see a passionate valetor iv been doing it for 35 years I love autoglym
Thank you 👍
Hi Mat, great video,looks easy to apply and the results are amazing,not having a garage doesn't help,for the money it did a excellent job.
Thank you 👍
Great tutorial, thanks Mat. Good learning in here and yes, I am a novice but you've talked me through it just fine. Thanks. New car arrives at the end of this week!!
Glad it was helpful! Enjoy the new car.
Great video mate! This stuff is the best when you're driving along and hit a certain speed / wind hits the car and you get that water wave effect off the bonnet.
Absolutely
This site has the clearest instruction ever. Excellent presentation.
Thank you 👍
I’m sold. Just ordered it off the link in your bio . I’ll probably wait for the weather to get warmer before trying it.
Thanks !
Cheers Mat, love the fact that they include a Karcher adaptor
yes, nice that they do.... Look at their videos, and looks like they use Karcher themselves, so kinda makes sense.
I was a bit worried about trying a ceramic coating at home but you made it look easy.
Erm, thanks I think 🤣
But remember, because I make it look easy, that's no excuse to get complacent 😉
Seriously though, it's all about the prep work. So as long as you're happy with the results of your polishing etc, and ready to "lock it in", then applying this should be fairly straight forward with a little patience.
Awesome video, loved the sheeting capabilities 👌
Glad you liked it!
Great video, really enjoyed that. Thanks 👍
No problem, thank you for watchin
Nice review mate, that ceramic coating what a difference it makes, water just runs off and disappears!👍😄
Indeed. Great for when you get around to the final rinse. Makes drying so much easier
Awesome video love it well done! I went and got mine today 😉
Nice 👍
Brilliant video. Many thanks.
I use to clean and polish cars in the mid 90s, a shame I didn't carry on with it, this video is great, makes me want to get back into it, the quality of products out there now is amazing, most improved formula's out there now, and I do know back in the 90s that most car manufacturers and showrooms used the Auto Glym Polish, probably use it in today's car markets. And I never ever used a motorized buffer. Interesting stuff out there now, and why the heck do people use the clay bar, just get a packet of low pH solutions when washing the car it takes off 100% of debris. Anyway, great video great solutions and simple methods.... Cheers fella.
Thanks for your input
Great video, Looks sweet so I should invest in some.
Definitely, nice and easy to use, pretty much beginner friendly
This video really helped thankyou
No worries, glad you found it useful 👍
Hi Mat, any news as to the longevity of the Auto Glym ceramic coating? I've read reports of it being dead at 3-4 months and it's preventing me from buying it.
Thanks Mat, looks interesting. Reckon it is probably aimed at the same target market as CQLite, reading AG's info sounds about the same although they don't state any specifics on Ceramic %.
Thanks 👍
A lot of people dis Auto Glym vs the quirkier, more boutique detailing brands but many of their products are very good. They seem to have effective R&D because I think this [ceramic] product is pretty strong, as well as being good value for money.
Indeed 👍
Is that applicator toast now or to you recon it can be cleaned outb
Whats the weekly maintenance after a coating? I've got a coating applied to my car and appreciate the ceramic makes a protective layer but I've found road salt and traffic grime does build up and start sticking after 6 months.
I don't have a Karcher at home, so trying to find a suitable alternative maintenance method of cleaning would be good to understand?
Snow foam and a wash. Some brands offer a "top up" product, or "reloader" to apply every so often.
Hi, I currently polish without the use of machine . But understand that machine polish lasts longer . What will you recommend as a good machine to buy ?
Thanks for the video. Not sure if I’m going to use it yet. I’ve got a white vehicle so not sure if it’ll really benefit from it. Just a tip for the start of the video if you lock your exposure on the camera you won’t get it flicking from dark to light in the time lapse or other shots ✌🏻
I usually do lock exposure, in fact, shoot manual everything.... I tried using shutter priority as an experiment for snow foams clips.... Didn't like it 😂
Very well explained and demonstrated. I was amazed how well the water ran off in the sheet test.
Thank you 👍 yes it practically dries itself
Great video bud
Thanks
Very useful thanks
No problem 👍
So basically AG version of Carpro Cquartz lite but more expensive! Think I’ll stick to TW ceramic but this does look decent tbf
Thanks. I have the TW stuff to test soon
I'm putting this on my new John Deere mower. I have a few scuff marks from boots to remove first. What product can I use under the ceramic coating? Not sure if I can use SRP due to fillers?
That's correct, you wouldn't use a filling product under ceramic. Really, you need to do a correction first
Seems easy to use and great results. Looks like a product which is similar to cquartz lite and cancoat?
Very easy to use IMO
hi i know its an old video but hoping you still reply , would i need to clay bar before the polish ? keeping in mind its a daily used car so the paint wont be in perfect condition
You don't need to. I only clay if I'm going to machine it afterwards
Awesome video
Thanks!
How many coats does it need & how long between coats ? cheers.
I have cquartz 3.0 uk coating on my car, is it safe to Magma on it?
A single use may be ok, but you may need a "topper" afterwards.... Best off checking with CarPro
How often would you machine polish a car
Ok... first of all if there are any viewers in America watching, yes, this is the actual size of a garage in the U.K 😂.
Secondly, I picked my new van up on Friday. What would be my best bet for getting it ceramic coated in your opinion? Do I try it myself? Take it to a company?? How much would it cost to get a transit custom coated??
Funny thing is, this garage is a little wider and longer than most brick garages in the UK. So in fact, most UK garages are smaller 😂
Does this UHD coating offer UV protection ?
Hi Matt , do you not require inferred light to dry ceramic coating over night? I have seen most of Detailer who are giving up to 3 to 5 years protection use inferred light over night? Please advise, also I love all your contents thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge and experience with us all. 😇
many thanx
no problem 👍
Do you have to buff it prior or just have the surface clean? Also if you do have to do you use any compound of the pad when buffing it? Thanks heaps
If you mean polish, yes, you should polish first for best results
Detailing World thank you so much your the best! Liked and subscribed
No problem and thank you 👍
Do you have any idea why this lasts only upto 1 yr whereas other more established ceramic products can last up to 3 yrs? Also have you tested it for any water spotting?
It'll be due to the product composition
Hi from India,
Could you plz do a review of GRAPHENE COATING from start to finish.
Been waiting for some to arrive since the start of the year. COVID19 hasn't helped
Great video
Can you apply this coating on top of another coating
not really. Should be applied on it's own, on to a fresh surface.
Saw the bedlington! Sub’d !!
Nice. Some people aren't sure of his breed when they see him in a video/photo. He's bigger than "normal" and also stayed a really dark colour.
Detailing World ahah not many people know, we’ve got a blue one! He looked quite big tbh! Great video’s btw. I’ve recently bought a convertible M240i. I’m all new to this level of care for a car, so I’m appreciating the great content! Learning a lot! 👌🏼 keep it up!
Thank you.... Beddies are the best (might be a bit biased 🤣)
To me it seems pricey. £60 for 2 cloths an IPA and a bottle of ceramic. I'd be interested in the actual SIo2 solids content in this. Also it says you can top this with UHD wax at another £60 a pop.
This would not make me switch from TAC or Cquartz. Companies that have been doing coatings for a long while with a better price point.
The snow foam lance looks like a winner if you happy to pay twice the price as other Italian made PA lances with a wide mouth bottle.
I can see a theme developing...
If I'm Joe Bloggs, who this product is marketed at is lost looking at Halfrauds shelves marveling at the sheer amount of detaining products and looking for a ceramic product to schlep all over the paint, I'd probably pay the £90 for the TW ceramics range, based of the same amount of prep for each product, TW offers way move value the the end consumer as its a complete detailing system, rater than just 1 product. Polish, base coat, wet wax, shampoo and QD, (All ceramic, if a little bit is good, way more is way better) and offers similar results, and the packaging looks more desirable, and wont get lost in the other relatively expensive AG UHD product line.
On the upside, the video was well presented, useful tips and honest impressions of the product. I like what you do and you should keep it up.
Thank you for your input and feedback 👍
@@TheDetailingSpace So they supply the polish pad they sell to use the ceramic coating..lol...poor
Why is that poor? For their market that is ideal.
Can you apply this to glass or is it just for bodywork? And vinyl?
I believe it's just bodywork only...
I have used the turtle wax ceramic wash and wax and I’m getting water spots like crazy, do you think Autoglym UHD preparation would clear the ceramic coating that’s on there? I’ve tried hand polishing it but no look ☹️
Liam Turner probably down to not enough preparation ( at a guess) . If you don’t have a machine polisher to really get the paint to a good standard I’d steer clear of most ceramic products. The turtle wax stuff will degrade over time ( one coat in maybe 3/4 months), so you could just wait and then go back to traditional waxing, it’s much more forgiving than ceramics.
Karl Hulme ok thank you very much 👍🏻
Yeah, what Karl said 👍
Does anyone know if I could use the polar seal after it has been ceramic coated, or would the seal not work and just keep using the blast and wash? Cheers
Technically yes, but not sure if it'd add anything to it. The do suggest not to wash or use chemicals on it for at least 24hrs after
@@TheDetailingSpace thankyou. Would be just because have 2 5 litred of the stuff to use up 😂.
I’d of thought once it’s cures using polar seal as a topper after some maintenance washes might boost your water behaviour as it starts to fade and possibly make the ceramic last longer? There’s only one way to find out
Yes, polar seal as a topper should be fine TBH
Hello, do you know the water contact angle. Does it also add depth and reflectivity. Cheers Julian from Australia
Not sure about the contact angle. I'll have a look at the leaflets tomorrow
For an average sized car, let's say your Seat or my Fiesta, how many time would you be able to use this product before having to purchase a new one?
3, maybe 4 times I reckon.
Hi Matt
Can I put turtle wax graphene spray flex wax on top of this product?
I believe you should be fine once it's been allowed to cure (give it 48hrs to be safe)
Hi pal. Nice work, where are in North West? Near Chorley area?
Me? I'm not North West, more Midlands area 😉
@@TheDetailingSpace reeto, certain words with accent thought you where near me pal. Keep up the good work!
Haha, Derbyshire 👍
I'm interested where you got your jacket?
Had it years.... Was a good dog walking jacket until one day I had my hands in my pocket with lead around my wrist. Dog pulled hard and fast towards something and ripped the pocket.... So now just one for cleaning cars in the winter.
Hi, I'm purchasing a brand new car in a few weeks, what's the best way I can keep the show room shine. Thanks for you help
I would seriously consider having a pro detail it first. Even new cars can do with a machine polish. Where are you based?
@@TheDetailingSpace thetford Norfolk if any help its a white bmw x1
Just wondered in case I/we knew of any detailers in your area.
Leave it in the showroom!
@@paulbradford8240 really is that your adult opinion on it or you just being a child
i was tild if the ceramic coating is not in a glass bottle its not real ceramic as the plastic bottle would dissolve with the product hence why the real stuff is in glass bottle
could be wrong but that's what i always thought the snow lance looks great
I've heard the same.
Ooo lovely!👍😂
Thanks 😊
Better review than AUOYGLYM'S own! but how far will 100ml go? two cars?
Should easily do 2 large cars. I did my Mk3 Leon a few years ago with 30ml cquartz, and still had a little left afterwards
@@TheDetailingSpace makes it very competitive then? I'm using "HYDROSILEX" just now which gives around 6mth protection but is a breeze to apply, spray on buff off, a 1ltr bottle has so far done 5 cars and I think enough left for at least another two! well worth comparing I think!
I'd say so 👍
Can I do this in sections over time (1 week) or can I use the applicator only once?
Yes, that should be fine.
is the red buffing cloth/microfibre reusable or due to ceramic contamination trashed?
Seems ok, and should be fine to use again. If in doubt, just demote it to a rag. But from what I can see, it seems fine.
The reason I ask is that I recently ceramic coated my wheels with GTECH C5 and they recommend not to reuse the levelling cloth due to contamination once the product cures on the cloth to avoid scratches? what are your thoughts?
Yes, the is true for some of the professional grade products, it can crystallise and ruin applicators, cloths etc... This is a different composition, and aimed at retail, making it a slightly different kind of ceramic product.
that makes sense, thanks.
No problem
Numty me i thought you had made a continuity error when you posted started at 3:46 and then your watch was at 5 past 12 ✋🤭
😂
I'm mindful on continuity 😉👍
Hey great video
Question
Polar wash
Then polar blast
Should i Autoglym Hd wax it or autoglum super polish it?
Then apply the new HD product
Or wasting my time
Wash it then Hd it
What steps should I take please
I am a autoglum fan
Taa Neil
If using this ceramic, the preparation product will remove the fillers that SRP leaves behind, so kinda wasting time there. Really, you want to machine polish the car before applying this...
Otherwise, use SRP and then a wax product on top of that rather than this.
Hmmmm looks very similar to GYEON wet coat or other SiO2 infused sealants. Durability will be the real test
Luckily I pop to the parent's most weekends, so can keep an eye on it 👍
Does this product offer a similar result to Supagard? We had Supagard protected car several years ago, but I never realised what it was. The car always cleaned very well with dirt just dropping off with little effort. I then began working for a Nissan car dealer that tried to get us to sell a similar product for a minimum of £100 and up to £300! This was in 2000. I never sold one as it seemed to be a con to me. I then realised the significance of the small Supagard sticker on a rear window. I then worked for a Ford dealer that sold Supagard, but at a more reasonable price. I seem to recall they purchased a car polishing kit, including leather interior and carpet treatment for around £15. The valeters charged about £45 to treat the car, so we had to sell it for at least £60. I did sell a few as I thought that it was quite good.
TBH, I've never experienced Supaguard or any packages offered by dealers. As you can guess, I always decline them 🤣
Great video, any up date on the durability??
Not yet. Will pop to the parents at some point and see if I can get some footage
Detailing World. Would be good to know, I am thinking about trying it out soon but there are so many great products out there! Keep up the great work!
👍
So, you get a wax remover/preparation solution but you have to wax the car before you apply it?
No, you polish the car before you apply it....
We have a video on the difference between wax and polish
@@TheDetailingSpaceOh I see. Thanks, man.
No problem
But on a SEAT? Only kidding mate nice video
Haha, nothing wrong with a Seat 👍
When would you have to wash your car next...? Can't tell me that would last 12 months...?
You would still need to wash your car, but the protection will still be there. Please don't confuse these type of products with "never have to wash it again" nonsense you get from dealers. The car will still attract dirt, but this will make initial washing easier as more dirt should just rinse off with a pressure washer before you even touch the car with a mitt.
Is that a serious question or are you just taking the piss ?
Why do you polish the car just to remove it again to ceramic coat it
I think you're confusing 2 different, yet similar things here...
A hand polish, or what you are referring to as "polishing" is a product that fills in defects etc.
What I'm doing, is polishing, as in the actual process of polishing. This actually removes swirls, rather than just filling them. What you see me wiping away is any polish residue and oils.
Detailing World ok I see now do you think it’s worth using the ceramic coat if I haven’t got a machine polisher. I do use the polar products and they work well, just ordered the autoglym snow foam gun.
I am looking forward to the AutoGlym anti-postman product to be released. I spent considerable time the other day polishing my car, and a couple of days later our postman - who has an IQ approaching 15 - merrily ran the buckles of his postbag along the length of the car - as he “brushed by”.
What particularly pissed me off was the fact he had no mail to deliver to us and he was just “running a shortcut” to my neighbour.
Yep, with all the best will in the world, there is always some careless arsehole out there who just doesn’t give a shit about other people’s property.
Which is pretty much why I will never spend 30,000 pounds plus on a new car.
I had the same thing happen to me and made a claim against the post office
ouch
I haven't got a Garages depressed 😞
Consumer lifeshine? 🤔
Never tried lifeshine
The thing with Lifeshine.. If you read it. The warranty isnt worth the paper its written on.
The other problem is.. The dealers who sell/install it, dont allow the microfibre wombles long enough to do a decent job, so the coatings often fail before they should.
3:22 thats a bad place to put a garage too close to the wall for me.
lol.... The Mrs's old Cerlario got in easy, I used to have a Leon myself, now the Pulsar and got good at getting them in. Even managed to get a large Jag in. The only PITA is having to take the gates off.... Hopefully a new garage soon, so will aim to make it better... Although I'm a bit limited. Think there's 6-9" between the wall of the garage and the fence between me and the neighbour (which is my fence, so could possibly build up to/on the fence line).
@@TheDetailingSpace hope it goes well
@@TheDetailingSpace Building a garage right on the fence line could screw you with the local planning dept and building concent.. Might be worth a call
I would love to have room in my garage for the car oh well I'll kerp dreaming
This more like sealant imo
Dunno, I'd say Ceramic.... But where do you draw the line between a "sealant" and a "coating"
Detailing World id say ease of use and durability I feel coatings should last longer than any sealant and price too I have a sealant on my car that lasts 12 months and was a lot easier than this to apply
Guess it depends who they are aiming this at.Remember, AutoGlym probably aims more at the masses
Lasts about 2 months
Im trained in lifeshine im pretty sure this same stuff and i no lifeshine easy to use .
I can see this being "interesting" sure some of the pros will get some work out of people messing up with it 😅😂
🤣
The plan was to make something that was as "un-mess-up-able" as possible, but that still really delivered. Keep it off the rubbers and don't let it dry on and you will be fine. Even then, the preparation product will remove it from rubbers and if it dries during application, just add more Ceramic Coating to re-hydrate the product. No need to machine it off as with some other types of product.
That's good to know regarding the rubbers and "re-hydration" method 👍
Some products leave behind oils and fillers: ie super resin polish.
Lols.
Correct, hence the preparation product.
Looks decent but imagine how many non detailing people are going to get this in Halfords and completely cock it up!
True. but at £60, I can't imagine Joe Bloggs just picking up a bottle whilst casually browsing. You'd think they'd do some research / have some basic knowledge of detailing.
Let’s hope so!
@@Audittr2108 Unlikely... I get plenty of questions on my e-mail and facebook...
Is X product any good
How do I use x product.
Ive done this..... How do I fix it?
So wash the car
Polar wash
Polar blast
Polar seal
Then polish the car
Then ceramic or skip the polish part
All Autoglum products used
No. Polar blast, then polar wash. Forget polar seal if using this.
Polish before applying a wax or sealant
Never been a huge fan of autoglym
Worth giving this a try
What are you a fan of
👍
@@slowsteadysteve6565 Just find some of their products not working well, SRP is so dusty, Clean wheels is a slippery slope.
Yes tend to agree about super resin it does dust up easy
£60 for a product they claim lasts 12 months?? Give me Fusso coat for £20 all day long!
Just another option available really.... Plenty of choices for people these days
I think I'll stay with my Lifeshine lol.
Fair enough 😉
Detailing World only kidding, but my Mrs would kill me if I spent £60 on something for my car.
It looks good stuff though, the water behaviour and the gloss was impressive.
Good work!
@@HantsLeo so you're not even allowed to refuel it?
hog_hedge haha, OK you win!
haha
Unfortunately ceramic is a big hype word. I remember when auto finesse launched theres. I'd never seen so many swirls locked into the car than at a show they openly asked people to come on there stand 😅
Did AF have a Ceramic? I know they have a Caramics kit, but never used it and assumed it was an "infused" product....
I know what you mean in some ways, but I think you're thinking more of the "ceramic infused" or "Si02 infused" products. This - as far as I can tell - is a "proper" ceramic. Some of the infused products only offer a few months of protection and are usually wipe on wipe off (or even rinse off). This gives 12 months, and has to have time to cure.
So if ceramic coatings are not applied properly they ruin your paint and are difficult to remove
@@TheDetailingSpace I've never really looked too far into it to be honest. It's there caramic kits. Still made it clear the average Joe and even car enthusiasts just see the word ceramic and flock to it. I know friends personally that have used it and there cars look like they've been cleaned with a brillo pad. I'm interested in ceramics and the tech is amazing but I'm a wax man, alot more thereputical
@@thepurdychannel8866 no they dont damage your paint. Just they dont bond to it if it isnt correctly cleaned.
And yes they are a pain to remove as it's almost like a extremely thin layer of glass over the clearcoat
@@vortex21jw oh i think i will stick to non ceramic coatings and good quality wax instead
Same bottles as thier lifeshine which where I work charge 400 quid for the car not to be even done properly. In my opinion that gives Autoglym a bad name, I'm sure the product is good quality but the fact our "professionals" don't even apply it half the time is a disgrace 😠
But that's the problem, it's the user applying the product, be it lifeshine, diamond brite or some other dealership pre sale prep. It's the dealers that rush because "time is money" rather than doing the job correctly
@@TheDetailingSpace Have you read the Lifeshine warrenty?
Hardly worth the paper its written on.
Basically lifeshine is what it is, if it isnt, its not Autogyms fault or the fault of the installers.
I haven't, no.
Ceramic coating delivered in plastic bottles is not proper stuff.
A clear tell sign of chemistry and durable product is deliverance in glass bottles.
👍I think we've concluded that this is similar to cquartz light and other alternatives
I bought this ceramic coating a while ago it’s crap
^
👍
This is not a true ceramic. You cant have a ceramic in that kind of bottle. Looks like a rebadged lifeshine.
👍
I washed my daughter's car and dried it.
Then
I used autoglyms magna or what ever it was called to remove all rust particles in the paint.
I washed the car again & dried it to remove any residue.
I then clay barred the car and washed it again & dried it to remove any residue.
I wanted to make sure the car was spotless & perfect before applying this kit.
I then followed the instructions and applied the kit.
I finally got the chance to wash the car for her today and after around 2-3 months the car didn't even bead.
It's total rubbish.
Ive used autoglym polishes all my life on all our cars and won't ever waste $149 aud on this shit product ever again.
Over rated.
May as well spoof on your car and rub that in.
Probs be more water repellant than this crap..
I should have just washed the car, polished it and then waxed it and it would have lasted longer than this garbage.
If you're gunna use a ceramic coating, spend the big dollars and get one thats actually going to last a few years.
Autoglym say their kit should last 12 months only.
I got 3 month's MAX...... & that was after all that prep work....
Waste of day...
😯
I hope no one takes AG UHD ''Ceramic'' seriously!
Seems OK tbh.
@@TheDetailingSpace Its double the price of tac moonlight which is tried and tested. Will you do a follow up video?
Yes, I pop to the parents most weekends, so will keep an eye on it
Its a car? It gets dirty? You wash it? #getalife..
😀
Ceramic Coating nope more like a sealant good try tho
I'm only going on how they've marketed it. What makes you say it's more like a sealant?
The worst coating i have ever used, it last 4 months only!!! Turtle wax seal n shine out preformed this crap.
Que the string of people that use srp and then watch the fillers disappear once they use the cleanser but coat it anyway. The lack of actual polish without fillers that they sell to joe blogs means they will cause issues for themselves. Also that snow foam lance isnt anything new. Go to detailed online and save yourself £17 🤣
It dawned on me whilst watching this back earlier that I probably should have mentioned the cleaning product will remove products such as SRP....
Although technically, there's nothing to stop you ceramic coating a car covered in swirls.
@@TheDetailingSpace theres nothing stopping you but its not best practise. Also this coating is in a plastic bottle. Every other coating is in a glass/metal bottle. I assume thats not done just to make it look fancy. And as you mentioned in another comment thw pad hasnt crystallised yet. I dont see this being one that lasts particularly long. And value for money its way out there. Cquartz uk is less than that and will last 2 to 3 years.
Only 12 months - this is not good enough in today's market. Avoid.
I guess for the price, and a DIY High Street product, you can't complain too much. Maybe they'll release a v2 with better longevity.
Most coatings only have around a year's worth of properties in them before they ware off
does the applicator pad crystallize after one use or can it be used multiple times until all used
I assume it'll probably crystallize. I'll check the condition later 👍👍
Just checked the applicator, and no it hasn't crystallized.
