Which has better quality Mothers or Meguiars?

@Acuras82, how did mothers ceramic coat fail you? I believe a company can’t get better if we don’t speak voices.

Poor longevity was the big one. 4-5 weeks tops for me when it was hyped for 12 months longevity. Forrest, the Mother’s rep who has posted on this forum was well aware of the disappointment of many here, and he himself was disappointed with our accounts. He had stated they were looking into why the retail product was getting such different results than their lab testing, and they were looking how to correct it.

Nothing came from that as far as I’m aware. And if something had, I personally wouldn’t have cared due to the heavy hype, it was already a disappointment, and there’s tons of other choices in this genre. No need to have a 4 week Spray Sealant with mediocre performance that hardens towels.

Search for CMX articles from early-mid 2019 and you should find plenty about this. Voices have been heard.

Thanks, I’m new here wasn’t aware. Do you have experience with Meguiars Hybrid ceramic liquid wax? I just applied it yesterday. How long is that supposed to last? To top it off it rained today.

I don’t have experience with that, but it’s interested me. This is the thick liquid that applies like sealant, not the spray, correct?

I have used Megs Hybrid Ceramic Detailer, it’s awesome. There’s mixed results on Megs Hybrid Ceramic Spray Wax, but mostly because of application I think. But those who like it seem to get great results, beading, longevity. So my mind says that Megs knows what they’re doing with their ceramic line. I’m interested to hear how the liquid wax works for you (or the spray wax if that’s what you meant).

@Acura it’s the liquid not the spray one. I like it, although I don’t even know how to tell when it’s needs replaced. It rained and the water beaded great, and it didn’t leave water spots after it dryed. How do you tell when the wax needs replacing other then spraying water on it?

I think seeing the beading go away is the main way to know *something* needs to be done. A couple washes with a good soap like Reset or other glossless soaps could prove that the sealant is still there but was covered in gunk, or might confirm that it is simply degraded away. At this point you can feel the paint when clean. If it doesn’t feel slick anymore and feels almost rubbery or even squeaky clean, then the protection is all but gone. Generally though, if a product beads nice when applied, and stops beading nice even after washing a few times, then assume that the majority is degraded and re-apply.

Thanks man like I said I’m totally new. Depending on what you like it’s nice product, although it took me a while to apply by myself. I find that sprays is faster but I assume the liquid wax last longer. Either way, I like it and I would probably buy again.

Like Mike P always says: "Find something you like, and use it often."
