    Product Review - Chemical Guys - Hybrid V07

    I've used quite a few times now, and I really like the product. However at least for me I found it makes more sense to dilute it 1:1 as the product does streak on my black car. I can buff out those streaks, but with it diluted I find the gloss is just as nice, and it's easier to get out the streaks if any show up. That also makes it much affordable, as the price for a gallon is a bit pricey if you're using it straight. The smell is amazing. it smells like an orange drink that you want to drink. I don't suggest doing that though.

    Sorry I don't have any actual pictures of it's performance.

    Pros:
    Can spray on plastic surfaces
    Nice gloss finish
    Great way to dry the car, can be applied when car is still wet.
    diluted 1:1 and still great results

    Cons:
    Price
    Streaks

    I love it but it doesn't last long, and that's all full strength. If it lasted longer it would be on my top 5 all time products.

    I have a bottle and won't be getting another bottle. V7 is OK but I find Megs D156 to be more economical and no streaking issues.

    I love using V07 after washes for the looks, but use a spray wax as a topper for an actual boost of protection

    Have you ever used Aquawax? I like V07, but actually like the look, and ease of use of Aquawax. Less expensive as well.

    I've always had a gallon of V07 handy. While it doesn't last long, I use it for wiping down a car after a maintenance wash to top off the exiting sealant or wax since it looks great!

    How long, from what I've seen it can last a week? That seems like a normal amount of time for something that is suppose to be a maintenance wash topper type product? I mean I don't see how it could last more than 2 weeks. I don't think it's meant as long term protection. Than again I don't daily drive to work. So maybe that makes a difference if its less than a week lol.

    It is a great gloss booster or drying aid. However; Ultima WW+ is far superior and way more economical in my opinion.
