The plastic all-in-one also contains their "ceramic", but isn't labeled as such.

Sorry if I've vented on this before, but (even as a Griot's fan) I really don't like their reliance on the all-in-one and 3-in-1 monikers.

Ceramic 3 in 1 is a protectant that 1: Creates water beading, 2: Has extreme durability, and 3: Has intense gloss.

The 3 in 1 Wheel Tire Mat cleaner is just a cleaner for 3 different areas.

Leather 3 in 1 cleans, preserves, and protects.

Ceramic All in One Wax polishes and protects. So does Liquid Wax 3 in 1...

Agreed. It's created confusion for some people and you can see that in their livestreams. The Ceramic 3-in-1 should just be rebranded as Ceramic Spray Wax. I thought the 3-in-1 for that was sealant/carnauba/SiO2. The wheel-tire-mat cleaner has the 3 things already in the name. No need to add 3-in-1. Leather 3-in-1 could just be Leather Detailer.

Seen on detail world someone has on pre sale for 670£ and 690£. If same price here that’ll be over $800

TRC Day 2 livestream said ~$900 for a kit including 2 batteries, power adapter, pads and polishes/compounds. Maybe there will be a kit without the pads/polishes.

Koch-Chemie Gentle Snow Foam X-MAS (Limited Edition) - $29.99 / 1 liter
Gfx - Gentle Snow Foam Christmas Edition

Everything you love about Gentle Snow Foam but now with the scent of Christmas!

Gentle Snow Foam is a high foaming, pH neutral cleaning foam with a unique Eggnog fragrance. with a pH of 8.0 which is slightly higher than that of GSF but, can still be used as a Snow Foam for pre-washing when applied with a foam gun or foam sprayer, and as a shampoo for manual car washing.

Gentle Snow Foam develops an even, well moistened foam blanket that sticks to the entire surface, thereby allowing a long application time. Due to its pH neutral formula, it does not corrode waxed or sealed surfaces.

Faster than traditional clay - Iron Remover is fast and easier to use than a clay bar.

That Stoner product sounds a lot like the M37 foaming wheel cleaner, which I happen to like a lot. Wonder if the Stoner will be cheaper (looks like not really). In the video it says it's patent pending, the bottle says patented...if the development was really decoupled from the M37 product, this could be messy...of course I haven't looked at the patent (haven't found the number yet).

Regarding the comments on the Rupes pricing, according to the TRC video (day 1), they have plastic gears and are lighter and quieter than their corded counterparts (and as iBrid machines can be run on the battery or cord). My point is Jason Rose detailed how they are not the corded machines converted for battery, they are complete redesigns. (waiting for the attacks on the plastic gears; Jason referred to them as "poly-fiber")

PS Jason Rose said the list price for the kit for the 15 or 21 (or maybe both) is going to be about $900, so expect to see it for $899. That includes pads, polishes, batteries etc. How far we have come from people trying to get the original PC at Lowes for $120 because buying it here for $150 was too much.

PPS Sorry, I guess most of that tech info was in the Rupes video that someone posted earlier, that I didn't watch until now.
