Has anyone used their products? They seem to have so many options it makes buying rather difficult but people on the youtube comments seem to like them a lot. Just looking for opinion's from fellow speed owners.

I use the no-nonsense all purpose cleaner paired with the silk shine dressing on the plastics and vinyl and their sprayable leather on the leather

For the car wash I use the honeydew snow foam cleanser

Those are two of the products i was looking into to. The non nonsense for general purpose, the silk shine for dressing the the tires and plastics, and the citrus wash for washes after i get it detailed.

That will work very well I personally use the tire and trim gel for the tires and exterior hard plastics, it's like mother's back to black on steroids.

WOW! That looks amazing. That blue looks better than crystal clear water on hot summer day. I wish i could polish and seal my car myself but still new to detailing. Only really ever clay barred and waxed the car. Didn't last more than 2 months, lol.

I work for a detailing agency during the summers and personally use their stuff in the shop and on my own cars. Like everyone said above, they make good soaps and interior cleaners. I personally don't care for their polishes/compounds and their sealants/waxes are pretty over priced... I used their jetseal before winter and it didn't last more than 2 weeks.

I prefer to use meguiars professional series compounds, wolfgang polish and followed by a sealant and wax. And honestly, the longest lasting sealant I've used was the old school turtle wax paste and its only like 6$!

Good luck with the detailing! And feel free to ask me any questions, I've tried just about every detailing product!

I have a hard time taking them seriously after coming across their J97:



"Designed out of passion, Chemical Guys Project J97 Paste Wax is the perfect fusion of design and performance. On the outside, a uniquely designed canister features impeccable motorcycle details. On the inside is one of the finest car waxes in the world. Chemical Guys Project J97 Paste Wax contains up to 64 percent Brazilian carnauba by volume to give it unmatched beauty and performance.

A professional motorcycle racer at heart, the designer sculpted the case to resemble a motorcycle clutch box cover. Modeled after the cover on his favorite race bike, the symmetrical design of the box is designed perfectly to house the detailer's fingers anchoring a firm grip on the Project J97 jar. The face of the jar houses 4 aircraft bolts that unlock the Project J97 canister.

On the front of the jar, numerous lines machined out of a solid aluminum block symbolize the many roads of life. The polished Chemical Guys Skull logo grinning on the front gives way to the lifestyle that is Chemical Guys. Much like the worldwide family of Chemical Guys detailers around the world, Project J97 Paste Wax is fueled by passion.

Inside Project J97 is the FUEL. Among the protective ingredients in Project J97 is a blend of rare oils acquired from around the world. Project J97 contains up to 64 percent grade Brazilian #1 white carnauba by volume enriched by a custom formulated, proprietary blend of natural waxes and combined with a durable airspace sealant to extended durability. Project J97 is truly a work of art.

Developed for longevity, depth, and clarity, Chemical Guys latest Paste Wax, code-name Project J97, is 100% manufactured in the USA.

The know-how of this very rare paste wax is founded in the aerospace industry and makes this wax outstanding in high performance applications. The most refined raw ingredients make for an absolutely stunning shine like no other.

Chemical Guys Project J97 Paste Wax is all about perfectionism, inside and out."

I've used Wheel Guard Rim & Wheel Sealant. A good amount of brake dust hoses off easily with this stuff on the wheels.

Waiting to run out of my meguiar's carwash supplies before I switch over to full Chemical Guys products.

I use Chemical Guys 106 polish/sealant and Butter wet wax. Fucking wax is easy to spread and take off. No residue and can be applied in direct sun light. That wax converted me to their products.
