In my prior tests I really liked products such as Wolfgang Deep Gloss 3, will the new SiO2 sealant beat it? This week I had time to test Turtle Wax Ice Spray Wax in new design "Original" bottle by running an array of car wax tests to determine the quality of Turtle Ice Spray Wax. Both products had impressive durability at 22 washes for the Wolfgang and 30 for the Meguiar's. This SiO2 infused spray offered very high ease of use, just a bit misted on the hood spread around and came up easily. Overall this is still an excellent product, I just wish the durability didn't take a hit.

They were very easy to apply after a paint correction that is required for proper coating application. Seems they think the idea works well with Adam's so why not give it a shot. This was my first experience with a UV reactive product. Both of these products are final application topper style solutions. Today we test these two popular SiO2 ceramic infused spray waxes. It was able to withstand 21 washes. I don't think I'd want to use it on top of a real glassy looking high end wax as a detail spray, but I may choose it for a base wax for a daily driver or vehicle where looks aren't as important. Adam's Polishes Slick & Slide is the firms newest spray product released in 2020. We will check durability, gloss, slickness, ease of application, and visual appeal.
Both products looked good, but the Wolfgang was a bit prettier. Adam's UV Ceramic Spray uses a fluorescent tracer that glows under 395nm UV lights. Overall I wasn't a huge fan of the installation, but the durability was incredible at 27 washes. In our testing this product did very well in the durability category for such a simple product. This product is a liquid ceramic coating which boasts professional level performance. While they were easy to apply the durability was a let down. I was very curious to see how it glowed and if that feature would aid in application. To test durability waxes are applied to a test hood that was polished and prepped to accept the wax. The new formula unfortunately failed to meet that mark. Nice. How do they compare to the cheapest products on the market? Nothing has ever scored this high in my tests. Between these two I would absolutely recommend Seal N Shine, it is a great product in either the old or new formula! Griot's claims extreme durability and intense gloss. Find out which spray wax comes out on top! Overall these two products weren't the most amazing solutions we've tested, but the depth of the Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic was impressive.

Soft99 recently released a new formula of Fusso Coat in Dark and Light versions. The claim is 10H hardness, 7 years of protection and it's meant to be the big daddy of the previously reviewed spray version. Now they are releasing "limited edition" versions of the same product with just a different label. Furthermore it was insanely durable and reasonably pretty.

Adams doesnt seem to be the same since he sold out. Agreed, I doubted graphene was in any of it but it came in my mystery box and I was pleasantly surprised. With so many washes in our test it's hard to find a comparable easy to use spray product in terms of sheer durability to washes. The Meguiar's NXT Generation Tech Wax 2.0 performed well in our tests with excellent slickness and durability in the category. A product that is very hard to use would score a -10 while a product that is as easy to use as a product in its category could be would get a +10.

The product is very similar to a baby wipe and allows for an easy application on top of a clean freshly washed vehicle. Both products excelled at slickness, but Xtreme really won out in the looks department. I expected it to be similar to Wolfgang or Jescar, but unfortunately it didn't meet my expectations. I was very happy with how both of these products worked and while they're not the top products in their categories, the results are solid and they're easy to use products. While the product was incredibly easy to use and very slick, it just didn't hold up when put through my wash tests. It has such amazing durability that it might just be better than a coating.
