Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic Wax, 26 Oz | Easy-to-Use Spray Wax for Car Detailing with the Superior Protective Power of Advanced SiO2 Hybrid Barrier Technology

I have been using Meguiar's G190526 Hybrid Ceramic Wax for a while now and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with the results! This product provides an easy and effective way to protect and maintain the finish of my vehicle. What I love about this wax is its hybrid ceramic formula that offers long-lasting protection and shine. Unlike traditional waxes that require a lot of effort to apply and buff off, this product can be applied quickly and easily using a spray bottle. The formula bonds to the paint surface, creating a protective layer that repels water, dirt, and other contaminants. Another great feature of this wax is its versatility. It can be used on a variety of surfaces, including painted surfaces, glass, and wheels, making it a great all-in-one solution for keeping my vehicle looking clean and shiny. What's more, this product offers great value for money. A little goes a long way, and a single bottle can provide multiple applications, which makes it a cost-effective option for maintaining my car's finish. Overall, I would highly recommend Meguiar's G190526 Hybrid Ceramic Wax to anyone looking for an easy and effective way to protect and maintain their vehicle's finish. It offers long-lasting protection, is easy to apply, and provides great results.

Picures The silver car is wearing the HCW. Blue car has little to no protection. Both were sitting in a little drizzle for about an hour. Overview Meguiar HCW is a really awesome product. Very easy application and great beading capabilities. Safe for all exterior surfaces that I have used it on including plastic trim and glass. Anyone who likes keeping their car clean and protected should try it. Application For my first base application of the product I used a stripping wash from turtle wax followed up by my eagle one clay mitt. Decontaminating the surface will allow the product to bond with the paint more effectively. For the first base coat I opted to use Adam's instruction for h20 guard and gloss. Look up on YouTube for details. Using this method worked very well for me and left a good streak free finish. I have seen some complaints about streaking and I believe this is a case of over applying. I have noticed allot of youtubers spraying an absolute ton of this. You really only need 1-3 sprays for a panel. As for the spray on spray off method. I'm not sure how I feel about it. I tried it once and it seemed like I was using more product then needed. And was questioning the effectiveness. I would suggest skipping this process all together and just using Adam's method. As you have to dry the car anyway this really does nothing to lengthen your time and insured a good coat. Water beading/durability The water beading on HCW is really awesome. It only seems to get better with each application. I can't speak too much about the longevity as I apply this every wash. But I will say that I usually wash this car about once a month and everytime it seems like the coating was just put on. Even through rainy weather in the PNW. Using the method I use there is really no excuse to not use it every wash and will always keep a good coat on the car. Bang for buck At $15 for a 26 oz bottle plus a 5 dollar rebate from meguiars running through this year it's a steal. I'm currently on 5th use and have barely touched the bottle. I can't imagine anything short of 30 applications.

Easy to apply, took very little product to coat 2 vehicles and they both look great 3 weeks after initial application.

This is my go to spray on wax after hand washing. I wish it weren’t so pricey, but it works really well. Water just beads up and flows right off. Keeps up a beautiful shine. For as little effort as it requires to use, it probably is worth the price. The application is so simple. I do use insulator wax twice a year as well. Overall I am happy with Meguiars. It could not be easier to use and seems to protect well. Just spray on and rinse.

Used this to protect a Tesla 3 for 7 years. Looked like new on trade in. Going to continue to use on new Tesla Y. Easy to use

Works well

Works great for the price and easy to use

Good to shine

Ho provato ad applicare il prodotto come da istruzione, ma non ha funzionato. Ho dovuto applicarla asciutta e asciugarla fino a renderla lucifa con panno e carta assorbente perché lasciava aloni... Su vernice nera pastello

Good value

Do a google search. Everything they say(even the manufacturer's hype) is true. It is so easy to apply, it looks fabulous. Even a hacker like me gets pro-style results. It rains here in the PNW only once a year- from October 1st to April 1st...non-stop. But even rain water beads off. Last time before I went out, I just hosed my car off with our garden hose, driving at highway speed dried it off. When I got to the mall, seriously, it looked "just waxed". It so inexpensive, relative the amount used, and so easy to apply. Its crazy. Comparing this to traditional wax, is like comparing 5g to dial up.

Es un buen producto, solo hay que saberlo aplicar. Mark Kleis (detallador profesional en la sede de Meguiar's en Irvine CA.) estuvo directamente involucrado en la elaboración de este producto y explica muy bien su uso a detalle en YT. Para empezar no es una cera, a pesar de que se usa el termino "WAX" (cera) en el empaque, simplemente usaron ese termino para que la gente se identificara con el producto, tampoco es un cerámico, en palabras de Mark; "usamos ese termino porque es lo que esta de moda en la industria". Lo que realmente es, es un sellador sintético con un porcentaje de dióxido de silicio (SiO2). Modo de empleo: Existen diferentes maneras de aplicarlo; 1.- Este método es para los que tienen una hidrolavadora. Después de lavar y enguajar el auto, no lo seques y rocíalo mientras el auto aún esta húmedo, una o dos rociadas por panel abarcando la mayor superficie posible, no lo apliques de cerca porque todo se quedara en un solo punto, trata de que cada rociada abarque una circunferencia de 40-45cm, ( se que cuando lo apliques va a parecer que es poco, pero en verdad este producto rinde mucho) después usa la hidrolavadora y enguaja una vez más el auto esparciendo todo el producto que rociaste previamente, seca y listo. Este modo de uso es más como "mantenimiento", si es la primera vez que aplicas el producto a tu auto te recomiendo lo apliques usando el método 3. 2.- Después de lavar y enguajar puedes secar tu auto (no importa si no queda completamente seco) y después rocíes el producto, una o dos rociadas tratando de abarcar la mayor superficie posible, con una microfibra quitas la mayor parte y con otra microfibra terminas de sacar brillo. Hazlo por panel, no apliques en todo el auto y después lo quieras quitar porque se puede llegar a secar y te va a costar más trabajo removerlo, si eso pasa puedes aplicar un poco de producto para reactivarlo y poderlo quitar más fácil. 3.- Después de lavar y enguajar seca el auto, (completamente seco) y utiliza un pad rectangular o circular de microfibra (los puedes encontrar en autozone) rocía producto en el pad (una sola vez es suficiente) y aplícalo como si estuvieras usando una cera, abarca superficies no mayor a 50cm X 50cm y después limpia con una microfibra y repite el proceso hasta que termines todo el auto. Este método es más tardado pero es con el que mejor cubres toda la superficie del auto, te recomiendo que uses este método para la primera aplicación en tu auto y después uses el método núm. 2 para mantenimiento. Con cualquier método de uso que lo apliques vas a utilizar muy poco producto, no se necesita mucho para que funcione, si usaste un cuarto de la botella o más en una aplicación lo hiciste mal, te puede costar trabajo removerlo y estas desperdiciando producto, es como si usaras medio bote de cera en tu auto, de nada va a servir y solo vas a desperdiciar producto. Una botella debe durar entre 8 y 10 aplicaciones dependiendo del tamaño de tu auto. En cuanto a la durabilidad, pues depende de muchas cosas, si tu auto siempre esta bajo techo puede durar entre 3 y 6 meses, pero si esta a la intemperie probablemente un mes. Si lo aplicas cada mes o cada 15 días dependiendo dónde dejes tu auto no tendrás problema con la durabilidad. Espero les sirva esta información que es directamente de la fuente.

Excellent product. Very easy to use and great finish.
