Hybrid Solutions Ceramic/Graphene Paste Wax **Updated with RAIN video
I got a new, unopened box of the Turtle Wax, Hybrid Solutions Ceramic/Graphene Paste Wax as a "payment" for detailing a friend's car. I was curious about it, but had never bought or tried it for myself. So I decided to use my wife's Escape as the guinea pig, since it sits outside 24/7 to see how well it holds up.
I made a video of the experience for YouTube, where I answered some questions I had, and dispelled the complaints I'd heard about "It's so {darn} hard to remove." I had already guessed that the complainers had applied it WAY too heavy (it IS a 'modern' "wax" after all, and almost ALL modern waxes/sealants TELL YOU UP FRONT to apply THINLY). That and NO ONE (even Turtle Wax) had even mentioned application by orbital polisher. So since I had it now, I thought I would try to answer those questions as well as check out the results.
I went in thinking that there WOULDN'T be a visual difference, since my wife's car had recently been fully compounded/polished and sealed. Was I wrong? Watch and find out (sorry, it IS on the longer side).

You just can't go wrong with it, smells good, lays down well and no issues with removal.

I noticed it was. a TINY bit grabby, when I first started to remove it from a panel, but NOTHING "difficult" about removing it in general.

Don M, excellent review. It reminds me of FK1000p. Easy to remove when applied thin. Good observation on the trim. I've had the same experience with FK1000p, though it does hate some trim and is kind to others.
