    Help picking a cermaic wax!

    Hi all,

    I am looking for some help picking a ceramic spray wax. Although I have quite a few different spray waxes, I keep going back to Technician's Choice GMAX 584. I love the slickness of it, and the durability of it seems pretty good as well. However, I am thinking that there is probably something better on the market these days.

    I really want slickness when applying it. Durability is also an important factor, but given the two, I'd pick slickness over durability. Is there any ceramic spray wax that is super easy to apply, offers slickness and durability?

    I did recently purchase some Griots 3 in 1 ceramic wax and I hate it! Unless I'm totally doing it wrong, there is absolutely no slickness when applying it. I keep feeling like I'm dry rubbing my paint. I know it has good reviews, but I am not a fan!

    Thanks so much in advance!

    I was disappointed by Griots 3-1 as well. However, I really like Turtle Wax Hybrids Solutions Ceramic Spray Wax.

    I was expecting very little from an OTC spray wax after my Griots experience, but the TW pouches way above its weight. Good durability, easy to apply, looks good, beads like a classic sealant or wax.

    TWHS.

    Spray coating.
    Graphene flex wax.
    Wet wax.

    The flex wax would be a good choice. Several different ways to apply it.

    Re: Help picking a cermaic wax!

    In a related recent post, Mike G. recommended these two ceramic spray sealants:

    Armour Detail Supply Ceramic Sealant
    Vonixx Sinergy

    I haven’t tried them yet, but I plan to buy them based on Mike’s recommendation.

    I love the Technicians Choice Gmax and 582. Between the two, I prefer 582. I like the scent better and there is not that much of a difference in performance to justify the higher cost of the Gmax.

    I would also recommend Xtreme Solutions Topper. Even though it is marketed as a Topper, Brian from Apex Detail did a review and showed it actually provides some decent stand alone protection. It adds a lot of gloss and feels super slick under the towel. I buy it by the gallon and it is a good value.
