    GYEON WAXWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I'm going to describe this product this way. Yeah it's old in application and removal and probably ingredients, but they tweaked them and added "something" modern to the mix. Tip of the cap for taking a couple years to develop a new WAX during spray on this and spray on that! What they basically did was a "Pro Touring" Wax (old school body with modern running gear) Yeah I know it's a car analogy but I think it best describes this product.

    The product is well packaged as only Gyeon does it and comes with ergonomic applicator and high quality removal towel, not some POS throw away here! The twist with this product is after application you wait THIRTY MINUTES to remove. I heard you can leave it on overnight if you want to even. I waited the 30 minutes and it came off VERY easy, best way to describe it and I seriously mean E A S Y!! Theres no dust or fuss. The look is best described as a glow with a little sharpness. My paint was polished last year when I applied TAC system power plus Sio2 paint coating and well maintained since then, so that helps but I was happy with the new lookWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    This Gyeon Wax was made to be a stand alone as well as a topper for ceramic coatings, I assume it would work with graphene coatings but I'm purely guessing here. I've heard durability is good but Gyeon doesn't make ridiculous claims at durability but I'd bet if you left it alone and maintained on a DD outside it would last a solid 4-6 monthes. Now I'll be honest here, as you guys know I can't leave it alone and I see myself applying another coat next month, what happens inbetween is a game time decision.

    In closing I'll say this product was well worth the wait and the price and if my opinion means anything to you, I think you guys will LOVE this product without a doubtWhat did you do today, in regards to detailing?What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Thanks Paul, I really appreciate it but I'm just blown away that a company can take what was old, throw black magic in it and it comes out like THIS! I see this product being one of the most popular of the year and I'm looking forward to other users using it and chiming in!

    I feel like it’s failing at 2 month mark. Enough to the point i didn’t mind topping with Cosmic. For max protection 2-3 months...

    This was after 4 min downpour.... to be fair Cosmic looked same.

    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Cleaned tires with both Tuf Shine and 303 tire and rubber. For the price per gallon i’d go with TufShine.

    If price not a concern or just getting a 32oz bottle i think the 303 is a better product. Smells better, looks cooler (neon purple) and cleans slightly better. No knock to TufShine.... great stuff.

    Also if you don’t have a tire cleaning brush for your drill.... get one. Makes cleaning tires so much better.

    Applied 2 coats of Mckee’s Tire coating (non sio2 version)







    Rim Brim made it real easy w/o having to worry about scratching rims.... love that thing!

    Tires today:

    This arrived for me today, just in time for my upcoming wheel detail -





    (Apologies if this product/brand is out of line, these are hard to get in Australia and I'm just a little excited! )

    I had no idea something like this even existed. It wouldn't be worth it for me, but I'm certain you'll get your moneys worth out of it.

    Nice. Just ordered one for myself.

    Not something I use often but when I need it'll be a big help.

    Applied a coat of Collinite 845 on the company car. It really brings out the clarity in even silver.

    Makes the silver look like it's a liquid. Gotta love that.

    How long did you let it set up, UD?

    I have actually found that the longer you let 845 set up, the easier it is to remove. (Unlike 476!)
