GRIOTS Garage Ceramic 3 in 1 Wax | Ceramic Hybrid PERFECTION! 

Loved the video and so glad to hear you enjoyed the Ceramic 3-in-1 Wax!

Spot on review. I’ve had similar experience with my use over four months now. Great tips on the towel type and application, I found the same through trial and error.

Just used this today on my 2020 f150 I've had the truck for a week, clay barred then applied the first coat, impressed with the shine already, going to apply a second coat tomorrow. So far I'm giving it a 10 out of 10 on ease of use and shine.

This is whats makes this channel different from others and the reason why I’m a faithful subscriber always the best and most genuine reviews.

One of the best channels on “serious” car detailing. Griot’s exudes quality through and through. Liked and subscribed.

This product is the best i have used in terms of durability. I have a daily driver which have been professionally ceramic coated. The ease of use is amazing. The ceramic maintenance product that is proscribe to rejuvinate the coating is not as durable. As you said in the video overloading the product can be a challenge. But a little goes a long way. In terms of gloss and slickness it is amazing. My main goal as a professional detailer is giving the customer the best service and products that will last and keep them satisfied and Griots garage 3 in 1 ceramic wax is a good product for maintenance of ceramic coating and as a stand alone protective sealant for any daily wash and paint restoration of a vehicle. Using this product do give every detail the fine look of perfection. Thanks for review and look forward for your future videos.

I’ve had good experience using it as a drying aid when the vehicle is still wet. Granted, it’s after an ONR wash, and I don’t spray the whole vehicle down. I’m doing it one wet panel at a time. Use the PFM drying towel and both the water and 3-1 come off so easily. I love this product.

Wow this is a high level of OCD over the top precision. Love it man. I will try to apply 50% of your effort and hope to get 90% of the results. Griot's products are great across the board.

This seems like a winner for sure. I've been absolutely loving foaming surface prep as an initial breakdown foam, as well as the last prep before I put down protection. Poly Gloss is still a go to as well for maintenance washing.

I tried this after using their ome step sealant. I liked the results but put it down after having trouble removing streaks. Now that i know it could have been my towels i will resume using tomorrow. I initially replaced it with simoniz as a tester. This was 4 weeks ago, since then i rode past my clients house and the vehicle still looks like it did when i finished. Great video. Happygrinding!!!!

This is why I love You Tube. I learn more about whatever I'm interested in faster than I ever did in school. I'm currently using Mothers's CMX (I know, I know) spray but once I run out of it this might be the way to go. These hybrid sprays make protecting a car so easy versus paste waxes and topping off the protection isn't time consuming.

Im glad you are testing over the counter products

I tried it for the first time this summer. I gave my new 2023 two coats as per directions and got terrific results. Bug jerky wipes right off with little effort. The car looks great!

Great review. I ordered the GG yellow decon mitt, GG plush towels and ceramic 3-1 wax. This stuff is so much easier to use than TW. The plush towels are perfect for 3-1. The slow trigger pull on stream setting is fantastic. Shine and gloss is sick on my black Cadillac. Ordered your soap for maintenance washes also.

Excellent review! Just purchased and used on my garaged 2002 JCW Mini Cooper. Results so far are excellent.

Looks great stuff, thanks. Refreshing for a youtuber to actually test a product for more than a couple of days. 👌🏻

I’m so impressed with your channel. Thanks for being real about all your content

Very good thorough review. Great tips on application. Using this product in a couple of days so this video is perfect timing!

Thanks for the review. I used 3M clay and Griots 3 in 1 on my wife's Q7 and my Macan GTS this weekend. Fantastic results!

I spontaneously (I rarely do that and especially with car care products) bought a bottle of this at a local Advance Auto. I claybarred my daily driven '17 4Runner and then applied it (I too soon figured out it required a 2 towel step). I was pretty happy with the shine and ease of application. After the first rain, I have to say I was quite impressed with the hydrophobic properties. I eventually started offering it to customers when I detail cars as a side job. The first year I applied it, it was July. The only thing I did after was coat it with a carnauba wax. I live in Michigan. We had a somewhat early snowstorm and I was amazed at how easy the snow fell off my truck and still stayed clean even after those several months.

Thank you for the video! After applying I go back and clean the windows and mirrors.

I love your testing concept applying to real world scenarios works best!!!!!! Griots Garage Ceramic 3 in 1 Wax is an awesome from the ground up product and does outlast other products applied similiarly

Nice video Phil!!! I put on 3n1 on my ‘18 GTD back in Feb here in Italy- went through snow, rain, and in the past month sun & heat and it just needs now to be reapplied. Driving on the Italian Autostrada at 130 mph after having 3n1 applied while raining hard was cool it would just almost dry itself! Good product Phil! Gotta try your wheel cleaner & your 007 snowfoam! My car is mostly kept under a carport- 3n1 I think needs to be reapplied now ( I have 2 coatings applied 1 day apart) it’s about 4 months!

I have seen a lot of these videos. This is the best by far. Really enjoyed. Very educational

Seems like you can't go wrong with Griot's nowadays. Nice review 👍

Another great video and no BS review. Just wanted to mention Technicians Choice ceramic detail spray. I just picked it up and have been liking it so far. Black paint like yours so I know the struggles!!

Really appreciated your thoughts and point of view on this product. Have tried the new Meguiars and turtle wax ceramic line but have yet to try the griots. Will definitely check this one out ,thanks for the review and informative video.

Cool review Phil. I just order the Griots G8 and G9 ORBITAL 2-STEP CERAMIC KIT. It includes the G8 and G9 and the Ceramic Wax. Thanks for the indepth products reviews.

Just applied this tonight on my Crosstrek that is left outside the garage. Used it as my test run before I put it on my Mustang tomorrow(garage rarely driven). Will let you know how it progresses, but really the application and look is really great. I started off with the Syn Clay from Griots with speed shine, then the prewax cleaner to prep. Looks really good.

Thanks for full coverage and issues when using it. I plan to use it as a topper on my coated car soon. Already used it a neighbor’s car and have yet to see how long it protected

I love this stuff, my wife's car is what I ended up testing this on before replacing my cquartz lite coating with this on my 4runner. It does perform very well, wifes car was staying outside most of the time and this stuff seemed to last 6 or 7 months with a single coat application. Granted I live in the south and do not have to deal with road salt or much corrosive weather besides rain. Long story short I am not going to mess with doing a coating ever again since this stuff is so easy to apply.

I used this today on a customers gmc pickup. It turned out really good. I’m going to use it on my personal vehicle

I like the real world reviews. I will try this. 😊

Great video and review. May go to this after trying one of Pan's suggestions. Have you tried any of the Car Candy Products? They are out of FL and have some nice products. Thanks and look forward to more videos.

One of the best product videos I've seen in a while. Torture tests are cool to watch but hey, I'm all about real world conditions like most working stiffs who like to care for their daily driver. You are correct the small sprayers are the best and nothing beats the smell of Griots products! I'll I'll be using 3 in 1 this weekend on my new Lexus RX350 and appreciate the application tips. 👌🏻

Great review! I just bought a brand new 2019 Ford Expedition Limited and performed the prep and applied 2 coats of this product and I have been happy with it as well. It is garaged and daily driven. However, I do not have a pressure washer and have had 1 contact wash with it. It was pretty easy to clean off after washing with garden hose. Additionally, I applied this to my wife's 2018 Acura RDX and her car has definitely popped since application.

Super informative, thank you!

Great video! Love Griot’s!

I love Griots garage products. I used this 3 in 1 Wax on my garaged cars and my 2 year old Kubota Tractor and the results are amazing.

I ran across your RU-vid channel wanted to see your intake of this product. I must say I’m impressed with your real world Analysis on detail waxing products. You head it right on the nail about other RU-vid reviewers apply wheel cleaner and degreaser agents on a car panel. That they have apply with wax, ceramic or a sealant and then test the endurance of these products by spraying acid base chemicals on them. In the real world people who actually take care and keep their vehicles maintained and clean. Who drive from home to work or just cruising in every day. Environmental conditions rain, Wind , snow and heat in the summer, cold in the winter. Are what these products were designed to give protection from. Not wheel cleaners.

This product is out of this world awesome. I changed to it after using another brand/line of stuff for 20+ years.

Dude! I purchased your foaming tire cleaner!!!! It’s the best I’ve found!!!

I am a big time Griots’s Garage products fan.Thanks for the very informative video

Great review! I moved from Bead Maker to this and had hell once I sprayed it all over the glass 🤦🏻‍♂️ but, after that I've really enjoyed the products longevity. Also, I admire Griot's for being very transparent about the market and why it took them so long to enter it.

Great vid! I’ve been using the TW ceramic spray because there was a lot of hype around it. But after using it for a few months it was just okay. The griots seems great tho! I’ll have to try it next.

I am a griots loyalist. My 2013 dyno blue pearl civic si is garaged but a daily driver. I was hesitant about this stuff but took the plunge. I would add that griots recommends and I did reapply an additional coat 48 hours after the first and before exposing it to weather and then giving it another 24 hours to cure. Yes it must be applied with no sun. I work only in my garage. I was interested in your experience in the duration before reapplication. Now I know for me itll be 6 months. I look forward to further reviews of griots products.

Fantastic review. Great presentation aswell.

just picked up a bottle today. I LOVE the Griot's Plush Edgeless Towels. Pretty much ALL I use on my motorcycles.

Awesome info on the towels. Extremely important.

I do paint correction/ waxes/ coatings in direct sunlight. As a mobile detailer, must improvise with how it is done.

Nice video I would suggest putting some type of thin padding at the end of the blower to protect from a potential bump into the body of the vehicle 👍🏻

Definitely going to try it out, thanks for the video. Not a big fan of hydro slick but I absolutely love hydrocharge from CG

I like TW ceramic spray. No oversprays. Applying using mf applicator. Can do in direct sunlight. Durability is great. Topping with TW ceramic wax every wash.

Subscribed and liked based on great information and delivery of information.... And because Alfa Romeo!

I've used this on an outside kept, '20 ram 1500 and my results were mixed. After 3 months, it was still present in some places but it seemed like wasn't in others? The front suffered the worse, getting the bugs off was torture. I used the same kind of towels by The Rag Co. I went back to using CMX, even though it's application requires more labor. Caveat though is I didn't clay, polish, iron decontaminate, or use isopropyl alcohol but I've kept up with the paint & protection since day 1. I cleaned with Griot's brilliant finish & dried with their towels b4 application. But that's all I did with CMX b4 & still do. I just applied the 3rd coat of CMX in a 2 month time frame & now I'm going to use Griot's Poly Gloss in the place of applying CMX to see how long that combo will last me. I wish I could do a contact less wash 😕, but stubborn bug guts prevent that. Future wise though after the CMX has worn off, I'm thinking of switching to The Last Coat Black Ice and using their original version 2 or Griot's 3 in 1 as a maintenance topper.

I’m a mobile detailer This is my go to 6 month coating with good maintenance.

I just bought this for the first time without watching this video an it worked damn good

great video, I am going to apply to my recently purchased 2017 Cadillac cts that will be daily driven that will be in a garage a lot of the time. The plan is to wash it twice since I don't having a foaming cannon, after the wash I will pull in the garage and dry it with towels and a leaf blower, I will detail the interior letting the car dry some more then I am going to synthetic clay bar the car, let it sit for a bit after that, then use the 3 in 1, let it sit over night then re apply the 3 in 1. Hopefully it will provide enough protection for the Chicago land winters. I realize there is no product that will stop a bullet. We get cars shot at a lot around here

Thanks for the thorough review. I plan on using this product on our new vehicle. I see that you have to prep the vehicle before using this product. Can you please list the products you use to prep the vehicle and order of use? Our vehicle is less than a month old, has a Black exterior, if this matters. Thank you .

Great video. Highly informative.

Excellent video! You're so thorough and you answered most of the questions I had. I've been wanting to find something that would enable me to do quick, contact-less, washes and now you've shown me a way to accomplish it. I'd already purchased the Griots Ceramic but hadn't applied it yet. Again, you gave great recommendations for how to prep my car and apply the product. Did I understand you correctly that after you had stripped the car, you then clayed each panel and applied the ceramic and then moved to the next panel? So you would complete each panel (clay, rinse, dry, apply ceramic, buff) before moving to the next panel? If so, that totally makes sense to me because where I live (northwest) I have so many trees that I can't dry my car before there's pollen or something that has fallen out of the trees. So, going panel by panel enables me to get it clayed and applied before there's time for more crap to fall on it.

This stuff works super. Question: In your opinion, do you feel this product, and other products like this, will make traditional waxes and sealants obsolete?

Definitely right about leaving a ceramic spray on a surface without immediately wiping it off. I made the mistake of misting my windshield with the Meguire's Ceramic Spray-On Wax and letting it haze-over (like I've done before with other spray on waxes). When I attempted to wipe it off the windshield, it solidified in small blotches and was difficult to remove. No permanent damage was done but I won't make that mistake twice.

Used this over the weekend. Let it cure 24 hours. It’s not the MOST hydrophobic, but pretty good. It was very easy to use. Doesn’t streak when used on cool paint and out of direct sunlight. Smells great. I saw a real world durability test from a reputable RU-vidr and it did very well for what it is.

I really like that you can apply as much as you want and it doesn’t streak like other ceramic sprays. I feel one little squirt isn’t enough product for an entire panel. I don’t see how it could spread that far. With Griot’s that doesn’t seem to be a problem. Not being able to spray it on any surface isn’t ideal though.

Thanks man! I put it on my dad’s truck last night. Now to top it off with Best of Show Spray Wax. I don’t have a pressure washer.

Excellent Video.. thank You 007 ! :)

I currently have this on my personal vehicles with collinite and jescar powerlock underneath, I've been wiping down with meguiars d156 after wash

Hey just came across your channel, great content for auto fanatics who like to detail their own cars like myself. You mentioned you have tried most of the ceramic detail sprays out there, have you tried surf city garage ceramic coating line??

Great video. I should of watch your video before I started using it. I did a rinsed my car off with water. Then apply the 3in1 wax while it was not dry. BAD MISTAKE! I see residue after drying it. I have to clay the entire car to get rid of the haze. Learn my lesson. Again great video!

Excellent video. How well does this stuff work on plastic trim and rims? Also, have you tried any of the new graphene-based protectants?

Very informative thank you!

Should try Adams CS3. Wouldn’t the snow storm leave a little protection on the paint?

Have you ever thought about using TRC Smittens for product application? Regarding bird droppings, Finish Kare BWM-101 (formerly FK1000P) is your best bet, it is not the prettiest sealant, but works quite well in terms of mitigating acid etching from bird bombs.

Man, awesome!, I was tempting to try this, now I’ll do it. One thing would you recommend using toppers/drying aid, like your 007 Gloss on top of this after each wash or not needed?, thanks for the video AF, great stuff man 👌👍

Thank you for the video I have use this product and I like it, now I just need to maintain whit your soap 👍👍

I’m impressed with this also.

Just found your channel I'm a new subscriber excellent videos down-to-earth real world review

I have this and the Turtle Wax CW, but I always go back to a collinite 845,and 915. These give a lot of gloss, but colonite really brings the depth. Both my cars have metallic flake, and so far none of these products make the flake pop like Colonite does. But that's what Iove about this hobby. You can try different products together, and so far my favorite was collinite 845 on lighter cars with Carpro Elixer as my quick detailer on top of the 845. The gloss, metallic pop, and depth is insane! With these two combined. I like using beadmaker as a gloss topper, but for some reason it doesn't add a ton of gloss to one specific car ,but on other cars it's also amazing. I'm a huge Griots fan, but Colonite really does it for me. Elixer is also good on its own.

Very good video, i am going to get the Griots 3 in 1 Ceramic Wax and try it. I did use Adams same thing and was pretty happy with it but I like to use different products. Once again a very good video I did learn a few things about this product that I did liike, thanks for the video.

Great video! You need to step up to the Stelvio quadrifoglio! I have an Audi S4 as my daily and love it.

I like the long test you do

I'm very interested in your snow foam. The way it sticks to the paint is just amazing.

Nice review of the Griots products. I’m fortunate that their flagship store is only 20min from my home. 👍

Like the tips about application, since it's a spray application you have to be careful for adjacent panels, glasses, door handles. I'm use to apply ceramic coating using an applicator/sponge. How about spray on plastic wheel well liner or lower part of front & rear bumper, sometimes it's kinda rubbery.

I enjoy it! Realized that in the sun it caused a bit of streaking for me, but in the shade it is AMAZING. Durability wise it is AWESOME! Is there a product you can put on top to help eliminate dust (anti-static)?...currently using another product but would like to keep it in the family.

Will you update this using the Speed Shine Ceramic as a Detailer to keep in clean frequently?

Would this be safe to use on headlights and glossy plastic door trim. Griot states its fine to use on those areas in their Q&A section for this spray wax.

Great review! Will try it on my 14 Black Avenger

Love your honest review. Have you tried TW ceramic wet wax? Extremely good topper, better overall product than the TW ceramic spray despite being different class groups

LOL. So another words you’re saying chemical guys products are junk. I wholeheartedly agree .I was soooo disappointed when I purchased hydro slice About eight months ago as a new product. And paid a Lot for about $46 to be exact. I only used it a couple times out of the 16 ounces I still got about 13 or 14 left so I put it on eBay to try and recover some of the money. $15 for 14 ounces not bad are used to ounces. But great review on the Griot’s. I did want to know if this product was any good or if I was going to be stuck with another chemical guys. Glad I watched this video. Now I probably will go out and buy some within the next couple days great review very good review thank you.

Great in depth detailed video of the product,would love to see the artdeshine graphene detailer go up against this & see what comes out best in your opinion? 👌

You are 100% right about microfiber cloth. Loop pile microfiber towels are highly over rated for cleaning. I discovered this when I was cleaning 60 year old medium format slides for scanning with a microfiber cloth and alcohol. It would 90% come clean but left sticky greasy residue spots that smeared around and just would not come off completely. I showed it to my dad who commented that micro fiber towels are useless for fine cleaning and gave me a lens cleaning cloth instead and the difference was night and day. I'm sure some loop pile cloths are better than others but I'll never use loop pile microfiber towels again for cleaning things like glass or final wax wipe on a car. I think the loop pile acts like a scraper that hold onto product and smears it around if it cant wick away completely while plush pile acts more like a brush that sweeps rather than wicks with thousands more individual "bristles" than loops in contact with the surface.

What do you think of the Stelvio? Also, I typically am just washing my car with ONR and spraying a 1:10 dilute CarPro Hydro2 with good and easy results.

What about spraying the product on a microfiber applicator first and then wiping it on? Have you tried that method and of so, what were the results?

Great video!! But people seem to guage a product by it's beading capabilities. I live in the desert, so there isn't much rain. I'm more concerned with UV/Sun damage protection. How is this product for this kind of protection? Thanks!!

Could you provide links to the towels to use the Ceramic 3 in 1 ! Also which towel would you recommend for Detailing spray ?

Great video! It would be cool if you tested this against the Malco Ceramic CR2

I never tried Griot's Garage products, but i see them.

I have been wanting to test this for a while but as far as I know this is not available in Sweden. Thanks for the video as always! I do like using P&S bead maker as a drying agent. It doesn't last that long but it gives a nice gloss and sheeting and beading I am using the Soft99 Fusso Coat as base coat.
