    Suggestions on a cheaper spray and hose off sealant?

    Im looking for something to use that cheap for wheels and hard to clean/access grilles on cars like the new mustangs and the new 2023 civics and such. Any suggestions?

    I think Turtle wax and 303 aerospace have these types of sprays, at the cheap pricepoint versus Gyeon wetcoat/Carpro hydro at the higher price point.

    On AG,

    303 Touchless Sealant

    As for sugestions, I've seen wetcoat mentioned a lot, seems to work well. But I think there's a trick to these sprays - I think it's easy to over do it and get streaking or not all of it removed.

    Thanks. I did see 303 and you're right. Less is more. It'll look like nothing is on there but it is lol. I dont know how often it'll be worth using as well... I did M37 touchless sealant and I got streaking/slim
    build up when I went too heavy.

    This may not be exactly what you are looking for but it is what I do in your situation

    Get Megs Hybrid Ceramic Wax, put on an initial base coat using a very small amount of product on a microfiber applicator, and buff it off

    Then dilute more HCW with distilled water at 3:1 distilled water to HCW and use that for maintenance

    You don't need to saturate the wheel or grill with it, just a few spritzes and hose it off

    Armor All Ceramic Car Wash Soap.
    50oz. for $12



    Use it straight undiluted for spray on/hose off instant beading protection. It’s liquid consistency.



    I’ve been using it on grills/wheels/etc.

    303 is good. Blackfire is probably available in larger sizes.

    BLACKFIRE HydroSeal 32 oz

    Another option.

    Or Griots ceramic wash and coat soap is a very good product.

    Btw, when I sprayed this grill with that Armor All Ceramic Car Wash…



    Spray on/rinse off. Can you tell which direction my nozzle was pointed? Lol.

    Yep, that’s what just the rinse water did to half of the hood by accident.
