Tried a Hybrid Ceramic Wax Today

I didn't want a shop to do a full ceramic on my car but wanted to try one of the several ceramic consumer products entering the market.

The clay bar is never fun but the ceramic product was easy after the clay bar with mirror-like results. Finished with a top coat of ceramic detailer. We'll see how these hold up under the Florida sun!

Welcome to PM me with any questions.

I just love a mystery. No I don’t. Why bother to post if you cannot impart information. I was going to ask a question, but I have thought the better of doing so.

Ya know, I really don't think it's my job.

I don't feel remotely privileged that he PM'd me the informatioin (I didn't PM him to ask for it). I don't care about ceramic waxes, which in my book is probably more marketing hype than reality.
The OP seems to think he can't pass along this information, which you and I know is done all the time here.

So, it's one of the readily available Meguiars ceramic products. Don't remember which cause like I said, I don't care. And by sharing the info, the OP doesn't learn that he can do so himself.

Altogether a worthless thread, which could be deleted for all I care...
