I think I’ve dabbled in all of them and stupidly spend far to much money on the detailing end. The slick social media ads make it seem their products are the way to go. I thought I found the majic sauce when I came across “Car Guys” spray on. The shine is superior and the car looks great BUT it doesnt last very long making it not worthy of the car. You name it I’ve tried it. So far Nex Gen ceramic spray is what I use but I know there must be better. I recently bought the turtle wax flax graphene. I used it just on the top and it looks good but no more than some of the others but its durability might be good.
Has anyone tried the new Adams Graphene coatings?
I might just bight the bullet and get the 7 year ceramic coating but for now I’ll stick with nex gen, Please if anyone knows what might be better please let me know. This photo is with car guys spray on

That looks mint sorry I can’t advice tho haha

I’m no expert by any means. My paint needs some serious correction to come remotely close to yours’ level of shine.

BUT, the best consumer system I’ve found has been the Mother’s CMX Line of products. It’s not the most expensive, but from all that I’ve tried it lasts the longest. In between I just use Lucas Slick Mist and a quick spray detailer. Then every little while I’ll rewash with the ceramic soap but instead of mixing with water I’ll put it directly on my wash mit.

There’s a guy on youtube that actually put in the work for a 2 year test on some. His channel is called Scott HD

I have this product as well I mix it with my ceramic shampoo. The only draw back is the streaking if not rinsed right away.

How much for the carpet?

Autoglym has always been my goto but polishing white has always felt a bit of an anticlimax as i’ve never had a completely satisfying finish with anything i’ve used over the years! if you do find something please share! :smiley:

I realized I have also turtle wax seal and shine but the Nex Gen has the highest SiO2 and so far it seems to be the longest lasting. I like a high gloss I’ve found the " Car Guys" brand gives. A great shine but it just does’nt last as long as some others . I am thinking about just going all in with Adams graphene coating, any ideas?

Well I think I’ve truly found a very good product after blowing a pile on others. 403 graphene

Lol it came from a hotel in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. It was in my house for a long time but I threw in in the garage to cover an irritating crack on the floor. I bought the car in 1998 for my wife from a lady who drove it light as sis my wife. After a clutch issue we stored in for a few years then I decided it was tube for me to have fun. It has the same paint from when I bought it. I corrected the paint myself without any abrasives. A lot of rubbbing with wax at first then ceramic sprays until I found the graphene. A good clay job firstly really made a difference. I hate a few dings.
