Best Value

$0.73/oz

A silicone-based quick detailer with SiO2 ceramic additives designed for light cleaning and maintenance protection between washes.

Key Chemistry

pH Level

7.0

Active Mechanism

silicone emulsion lubrication

Surfactants

1 (nonionic)

Expert Analysis

Uses polyalkylsiloxane as the primary active in a neutral pH formula to provide immediate surface lubrication and protection. The silicone emulsion approach allows for easy application while incorporating SiO2 particles to enhance water beading and extend protection durability beyond traditional quick detailers.

Key Differentiators

  • Full ingredient disclosure with excellent transparency rating
  • Hybrid approach combining proven silicone lubrication with ceramic enhancement technology

Potential Concerns

  • Silicone-based formulation may require more frequent removal to prevent buildup over time
  • SiO2 content likely minimal compared to dedicated ceramic coatings despite ceramic branding
