Expert Analysis

This formulation combines silica dioxide ceramic technology with 1-methoxy-2-propanol as a carrier solvent in a mildly acidic (pH 5) base that enables spray-and-wipe application. The ceramic particles are designed to bond to surfaces during the quick application process, creating a hydrophobic barrier without requiring traditional prep work or base coats typical of full ceramic coatings.

Key Differentiators

  • Claims 5x higher active SiO2 content than previous version while maintaining quick detailer ease of use
  • Versatile application method works as both spray-and-wipe detailer and wet-application drying aid
  • Extended 4-month durability claim positions it between traditional quick detailers and spray sealants

Potential Concerns

  • Limited ingredient transparency makes it difficult to assess the actual ceramic content and delivery mechanism
  • Achieving 4-month durability from a spray-and-wipe application may require optimal conditions and proper technique
  • Solvent-based formulation may require adequate ventilation during use in enclosed spaces
