Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Graphene Paste Wax for Car Detailing, High Gloss Shine, Extreme Water Beading, Long-Lasting Protection, for Paint, Glass Metal, Wheels and More, 5.5 oz (Pack of 1)

I bought this wax just to try it out. I’ve been wanting to try this wax out since it came out, but never did because I’m the type of person that only uses Ceramic Coatings and ceramic toppers on my car. Back in the days, I use to only use carnuba paste waxes, and I’ve tried lots of them. P21S carnuba, Meguiars carnuba, Collinite, and many others over the years. But this Turtle wax graphene paste wax is the best one I’ve used. It’s easy to apply, and it has amazing hydrophobic properties. It should also last longer than some of the older style carnuba waxes I’ve used in the past. But anyways, a part of me always wanted to try this graphene paste wax. So. I used this wax on my personal vehicle, which I already ceramic coated earlier this year. The ceramic coating hydrophobic properties seemed to be getting weak, because the car gets parked outside in extreme South Carolina heat all day long, and I only get to wash the car about once a month. So lots of contaminants got on the paint. So I washed the vehicle, then used gtechnic iron remover, then clayed it with a clay mitt, then wiped the whole vehicle with isopropyl alcohol, because I really want to test this wax and make sure it bonds to the surface without all the ceramic toppers and spray sealants I’ve put on overtime. I want to see how long this wax can last, even if it’s on top of a layer of ceramic coating. The application process was very smooth and easy. I let the wax dry to a haze (about 5 minutes), then buffed it off. Buffing off was easy too. The shine this wax gives and the hydrophobic properties of this paste wax is really really impressive. And the slickness is unbelievable. No ceramic coating can give the slickness a good traditional wax can give, because this wax makes the paint so smooth and slippery, makes it look and feel butter wet. It really makes the paint pop, and lets all the metallic flakes really shine and come through. I’m very happy with this wax, and I’m glad I found this great paste wax, and I think this is the only paste wax I’ll use if I need to. Really impressive wax, I highly recommend it.

What an AWESOME SHINE this product produces! I am very pleased with the results. I did my entire '26 Roswell Green Metallic Corvette Z06 convertible today, and the paint looks like a MIRROR now, and is very slick to the touch. Granted, my car is only a few months old and is always garaged, so the paint is very new. If your car's paint isn't so new, you would want to clay bar it to remove any contamination before using any wax or ceramic product. Being a paste wax, it took some time to apply it to all of the paint surfaces and buff it all off, but it only took me maybe three hours total. From now on I will use the spray version after washes, which will be MUCH quicker - but for new paint I wanted to use the paste wax to get very good protection on the entire car. I used a microfiber applicator pad with a sponge inside to apply the wax. I had to work it into the wax well, as the wax in the container is quite hard - so it took awhile to get the applicator to have enough wax on it to apply it to the car. This got easier as I worked more wax out of the container onto the applicator pad. I did the car section by section, and you don't need much of this product on a section. I used only enough to get the section completely covered in a thin layer of the wax. It's very easy to see when you have enough on a section, and the paint should be completely covered with no bare-looking spots. I let the wax sit for a few minutes on the section before wiping it with a microfiber towel to remove most of the wax, then buffed the section with a different clean new microfiber towel. Each buffing towel became the wiping-off towel for the next section, and I used a new microfiber towel to buff each new section. I fold the towels in half, then in half again, which gives me 8 different surfaces for each towel. You always want to buff each section with a clean new towel to remove all of the wax and get the high-gloss shine. I only had to use a total of six 12' X 12" microfiber towels to wipe and buff the entire car. The towels are super cheap on Amazon these days, so i simply tossed them in the trash instead of trying to wash all the wax out of them. I highly recommend this product! Just be prepared to go slow and put in a little work with it. It will take more work to apply and buff off than a liquid wax would, but I think the results are well worth the effort for a good base coat of paint protection on a new car like mine.

Great wax and long lasting. My small SUV has black plastic bumpers and black plastic body moldings around the wheel openings. If you get normal paste wax on them the wax embeds into the texture of the plastic and turns the black plastic an off-white/grey color. The only way to remove the dried wax from the plastic is serious scrubbing or pressure washing. WIth Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic Graphene wax there is no problem putting it on black plastic moldings. I tested it on a molding and no color change so I waxed all the bumpers and moldings and it worked great. Protects the plastic from sunlight (UV light) fading and makes washing the bumpers and moldings quick and easy.

Pretty decent product...it likes a very thin layering and I found it needs to dry, setup for at least 10 minutes, particularly if cool temps. I at this point will wipe gently with a micro cloth to spread wax , let set up another 5-10 minutes before actual buffing to shine point with moderate pressure so make sure surface was cleaned well and clothes swapped out so wax residue on them minimized. Will hide micro scratches well, decent water beading and longevity. No significant "cleaner" properties, little white residue on textured trim. Doesn't play well with some ceramic coatings...harder to remove and can impart a cloudy haze unless buffed vigorously.

I can't say enough about this wax, it is easy to apply and easy to remove. I have been using this for several years now and there is nothing more satisfying than using this to hand wax my car. It leaves a very deep shine and really protects. It also does not leave a white residue on trim. I would use no other wax, really great product.

excellent wax. lasts a long time, water beads up nicely. easy to apply and remove if you apply a thin coat. No need to apply a heavy application. Let it dry and it removes relatively easily. Excellent value for the money.

I'm very impressed with this product. For some background, I used this stuff on a pearl white 2012 Ford F250 diesel crew cab that sits outside under a Bradford pear tree when parked in my driveway. The pears drop onto the truck and the residue is not easily removed. I live in Indiana and I will only take my vehicles through a car wash maybe twice during the winter. The car wash doesn't do anything to remove the residue even if the power wash the spots before going in the wash. I have been pretty good keeping it washed and waxed for the years I've owned it. My go to had always been a wet/dry spray wax that I had used for over 10 years on all my vehicles and travel trailer. It was super easy to apply, spray on then wipe off. Even for a big vehicle, only a few hours to get through all of it. I became frustrated as the wax I was using didn't seem to keep the pear residue from sticking to the finish, so I set off to find something else. I had spent a lot of time looking and have tried many other products over the years when I came upon this. After reading the reviews and seeing the pics, I thought I would give it a shot. I knew I would have prep work since I had the pear residue to remove. I clay barred the whole car, then spray foamed the car, followed with hand washing to ensure all the dirt and residue was removed. Before starting the wax, I dried the car thoroughly. I methodically applied wax to 2 panels, then buffed off before moving onto the next panels. With the truck being white, it was very hard to see if the wax was applied evenly and because it is a paste, definitely required more umph to apply given I was used to spray wax. Removing was more effort than I was expecting even when comparing to past paste waxes I've used. I resisted the urge to get out the buffer and opted to continue on by hand. I used 2 micro fiber cloths to remove,1 to take off the initial coat then another to buff to a shine. I changed my cloths 3 times; used 6 rags. I'd say for the waxing alone I spent 4 hours applying, wiping off then buffing. The truck is big and I had to get on a ladder to get some areas. So far I am very surprised how much I like the result. It is hard to describe, but the finish just looks more durable; it looks almost like polished glass with depth to it. The pearl finish looks amazing in the sunlight. My advice if you choose this product is to have patience and put in the effort to make sure you vehicle is clean and dry before starting. Be prepared to work to put on and take off to achieve a beautiful result. All in all, I spent 12 hours over 2 days on my truck with the waxing and clay barring taking most of the effort. I would not recommend this for someone looking for something quick. Best of luck!

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I wanted to try this wax. Ease of cleaning: A lot of elbow grease required, doesn't remove easily, many hours of going back over truck because of wax film residue, multiple microfiber towels, 8 hours working on truck finish, black truck. Quality: Will it be worth the extra time??? Hard to say it will be, but time will tell. Truck is clean and has protection, fingers crossed!
