Default Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic wax

Owning a detailing shop I im not impressed with modern ceramic 'coatings' mostly due to the obscene costs associated with it. I figured we would try the new hybrid ceramic wax sealant by Meguiars. It was not as easy to do as regular spray detailer or wax die to streaks left behind but I could put two coats on my truck in about 1.5 hours by myself. After 2 weeks in the weather, including rain and light snow, this is how it fared. no cleaning at all, this is how the truck made it thru the weather with no cleaning at all. The water just falls off all the surfaces, including windows and black plastic trim. AMAZING is what i can say. We are going to offer this in our detailing business for 1/0th the cost of ceramic coatings offered by other shops.

Thanks for the review. I have been eyeballing all these new easy ceramic sprays. Now I just need it to warm up 80 degrees to use it!

Impressive! Thanks for posting.

As soon as I can get a decent free weekend I'm planning on doing a paint correction and Optimum Gloss Coat. I wonder if there would be any benefit in doing Meg's hybrid ceramic as a topper?

Except for the Dallas detailer guy on youtube (who didn't actually even use the product), I can't find a negative review. It seems stack up pretty well against products costing 4-5x. We'll see once I actually try it but for ease of use and the price it looks really promising. I think I may use just Meg's Hybrid on my wife's Pacifica and see how it compares to full ceramic on my F150.
