Hey, guys,
I recently used GG Ceramic 3-in-1 for the first time and so far I really like it. I applied it to clean, dry, and decontaminated paint.

My question is, can this product be used every week or two as a drying aid? Will doing so add more layers and strengthen the protection of the sealant, or is the product not really designed to be used that frequently? I saw one detailer on youtube who said if you use it every week you will "mess up your paint". Not sure exactly what he meant, so I thought I would ask here.

Thank you,
joebruin77

The Ceramic Speed Shine would probably be more appropriate. I just put it on both cars but I did so after drying. I keep my drying towels separate from the towels I use with SiO2 products.

I really doubt it will mess up your paint, but it would be a waste of product. 3 in 1 is a pretty substantial spray sealant, and not something would use as a drying aid like a QD spray or waterless wash.

Others have been using it for much longer, but I applied it to my wife's heavily used daily driver and it's still going strong two months later. No reason to apply a product weekly that is designed to last months.

I use it like this every week or 2 and it seems to get better the more I use it. Just used it today. I think it performs better as a drying aid as it streaks a little on dry, black paint. I have found some products perform better when applied to a wet surface or damp microfiber and this is one of them. I almost threw out a lot of products because of the streaking when applied to dry paint, but soon as I applied to wet paint or damp micro ALL the products came to life, especially my Pinnacle Spray Paint sealant.

Yeah can get grabby in heat too but was awesome using on wet car. Agreed wouldn’t use more than monthly.

Ceramic Speed shine as the drying aid.
