i did the bowdens threeway with decon clay bar , then flash prep , then seal n shine , the water beads are ok but the sheeting and chem resistance is why i used seal n shine plus u can top with a wax on seal n shine , i used gyeon wet coat on it , its mint
It didn't show whether you adjusted the cannons correctly, or at all to adjust the ratio of water so it looks like you just used them straight out of the box. Because I know both the Meguiars and Bowdens ones can do thicker foam, but the Bowdens foam looked just as runny as the Meguiars. It would have been good to just use the one washing liquid in the 3 different cannons for an accurate assessment.
Thanks for the review. Ive just followed the instructions from the back and it states you simply spray it on a wet panel then hose off, then dry. Does your extra step of wiping it dry after spraying it then re-applying it to another wet panel work better ?
It absolutely does work better. It ensures a more even coat, but also that the product will cover all areas. Double coating further increases longevity and surface tension.
I’ve used the meguiars ultimate quik wax for a few years now. It’s meant to be a maintenance topper . Never tried the mequiars ceramic spray wax. I’ve used the turtle wax seal n shine. It does hold up long, but it tends to streak where the meguiars ultimate don’t streak. My favorite is the Turtle wax Hybrid ceramic spray coating. That lasts a little longer than the seal n shine. Hardly streaks. I use the meguiars quik wax as a maintenance topper .
I find this video funny because you say your a detailing company and your using a shit $129 Bunnings special k2 pressure washer with no water pressure by the looks of it of course they arnt going to foam!…. I use the Chem bros big mouth with a tool pro 6.5kw petrol pressure washer with a 25m hose using chemtech ct18 super foam on my semi and I don’t even need to scrub it down just foam and pressure wash it off and it’s the best by far compared to any thing else
Did you shake each one prior to use? Because it doesn't look like it at all, especially with the problems you encountered is when you don't shake it. Also the Ozito even provides more flow rate (that's why I passed on the low end models of the well known brands) But I do agree with Peter B on his comments as well.
You should do a review of the different results with different foam solutions in the Bowden’s snow blow cannon. I just used some meguiars gold class car wash. I used the Bowden’s bottle for ratio. I’m quite impressed with the level of foam I got.
2 years after this video. Still only $20.80 on special at Repco at the moment. With everything going up is still great value. Makes a fantastic drying aide. Australian made and works, what's not to like, especially at the price.
Does anyone know if there's much difference between the standard Turtlewax Seal & Shine and the "Improved Formula" (sold in the US) version of Turtlewax Seal & Shine?
Was going to buy a Meguiars, decided to get the Repco one (glad I did!). Was a while back. Can't say I have any complains (comes with a whole bunch of adapters as well, and did the trick for me). It does the job and it makes really decent foam once you get it all tuned in - pressure does make a diff.
For anyone watching this in 2022 or later, Meg's Ceramic Wax applied onto a DRY panel is incredible. I know instructions say wet. Have seen many comparisons and it's better than products that cost 3x as much!! Try it out.
Application couldn’t have been right because I know these products ( at least seal and shine and nv jet) personally for me will start to even bead the soap off the cars I don’t think they should’ve been hit that hard by a light degreaser or even something that’s ph neutral. Seal and shine for me has been an outstanding product in terms of durability I use it for all of my maintenance washes and when they come in the water still solidly beads with nearly no sheeting at all, however definitely appreciate the match up and that’s just my experience so take it lightly no hate brother 💯
Dude got the same cannon I used gold class and worked a charm. The Eclipse is good for some reason as good as others that look identical but don't give the results like the Eclipse, it's great ! 2 things ......use a foaming shampoo made for cannons and changing the orifice to 1.1.1mm, the foam is so thick that it can be used as shaving cream. Pulling apart the cannon and chucking it in solution does wonders too.Dont forget the mesh can be reused too after cleaning. 👍
Bowdens cannon is shit ! Constantly clogs up and shit quality .. you’d think as a big company they’d fix this .. I’ve been looking and testing new cannons because there’s is shocking!
