    I saw it at the local Advanced Auto Parts today. I didn't pick it up because I haven't read much about it.

    I like it. I used my foam cannon this time. I’d recommend using a bucket and do a panel then rinse and so on. That’s how I’ll use it from now on.

    Having a black SUV and the sun beating on it, I have no other choice but to do one panel at a time.

    Do you the durability on Griots ceramic wash and coat?

    I just bought the Griots Brilliant Finish car wash soap. It was slicker than what I was expecting while washing. I would buy again.

    After the wash, Stupid pollen.

    Try their Ceramic wash and coat. I just tried it. The water just slides off. It’s been pretty rainy here the last couple of weeks I’ll wash this weekend and see how it held up.I have the brilliant wash too.

    I'm going to try it. I'm waiting to see how long the protection lasting you.

    It maybe a good wash during the winter for a booster.

    I use all of their ceramic products- the 3:1, the Speed Detail, and the car wash - all the products work very well together. Over a year later on my Subaru, water still beads.

    Where do you get your Griots products from?

    Advanced Auto Part has some Griots on clearance.

    When I was ordering through Griot's it would take about 1.5 weeks for me to recieve my order.

    With no Prime it will take the same time.

    It doesn't mentioned anything on Griots website.

    Is there a code for the 20% off?

    Thank you, sir!

    Is this advertisement part of the newsletter Griots sends out?

    It was on their Instagram page. It might be in my email notifications too but I saw it on IG first.

    I'm going to be doing the glass once the weather clears up.

    Do you use 0000 steel wool?

    Do you use the steel wool dry on the glass?

    The polish, is it regular polish for paint?

    What kind of pads do you use and machine?
