The Ceramic 3 in 1 Wax is outstanding. Probably my new favorite sealant. Their PFM drying towels are expensive, but light years ahead of the competition. Honestly Griots is one of those companies that you really can’t go wrong with. I don’t think I’ve tried anything of theirs that wasn’t at least above average.

griots stuff is very good. Hands down my favorite run to the store and pickup brand. If your ordering from them I would grab boss correcting cream (if needed) perfecting cream and a bottle of 3-1 ceramic spray their pmf towels are also super nice I love them for final interior wipe downs and for glass cleaning. The g9 is a great machine if your wanting to go there.

 

Did you ever find a spout for the 4L CarPro jugs?

Once my 4L iron x is gone I can send mine to you. I plan to buy 1000ml at a time going forward when needed, sick of the smell where I store it.

 

Bro that’s the truth the smell is bad. I never have found the spouts. I’m sure I will one day. I have 2 1000ml bottles that I will just refill. I just use a funnel right now.

 

Their correcting Cream is good stuff! I've tried Meg's 205 and a couple of chemical guys (by far the worst, three them in the trash after using once) and GG was really good stuff. Their glass stuff is pretty good as well

 

Gotta agree with all of this. Griots glass polish is my go to. On my last vehicle I did I used it head to head with CarPro glass polish and the griots preformed better. IMO also chem guy polish is crap.

 

That’s definitely a stretch, but glad to help.

 

^^ on the PFM's. I was very skeptical on them. Bought an XL and I not only dried my Tundra in full, but I could have dried a second Tundra. It just is the best drying towel ever.

 

Some Mother's speed balls for a buddy's Motometals he needs cleaned up and my old set is destroyed at this point, this Griot's 3-in-1 Ceramic spray you all have been raving about, and a pineapple cider because it sounded interesting.

 

I think the pineapple is the most interesting thing in the pic lmao

 

Just ordered a G9. Need to find info on product and setup.

Site/thread search function look out!

 

Nice little order from our friends at shine supply. Looking forward to trying it the trim stuff. Decided to give Daddy O and burnout a shot since I'm out of hydro2. Still going to use beadmaker to finish, how can you not! Also got some of the buff and shine uro-fiber pads in 3" and 5", heard lots of good stuff about them. Oh and some Griot's 3" pads since they were on sale and I have a box of LC 5.5" pads

 

Nice loot. Trim shield is dope. Let us know about daddyO shine supply is awesome.

 

Daddy O is pretty much the same as Jescar Powerlock. Really good product.

One thing though: I’ve tried Beadmaker over Powerlock and it just didn’t seem to bond with it well. It felt like it just wiped off and didn’t improve it any. I haven’t tried it with Daddy O, but I suspect you’ll get a similar result.

 

You will love the UroFiber pads. I use the 3" Griots BOSS pads on my G8....thinner pad helps me maintain pad rotation.

 

You try the 3 in 1 yet?

 

Havent had a chance yet unfortunately. Been busy with the fam.

 

Can the experts here recommend a good random orbital polisher? I've been detailing my cars for decades, but I've never owned polisher / buffer. I've been looking at the Griot's 6" or maybe a TORQ. Any recommendations? (I tried searching the Detailing forums, but didn't see a dedicated thread)

 

I bought this and love it. I'm a newb and have had great results.

So a friend stopped by last week and asked if I could recommend a product to put on his black rear bumper covers that where faded and looking rough. I broke out a bottle of trim shield by shine supply and cleaned and coated his plastic for him. He said he has tried everything but nothing lasted more then a couple rains. He sent me this pic today after a week of south Florida rain needless to say he is very impressed.

 

You got a great machine there that is backed by one of the best warranty’s.

 

Today’s loot. Thanks @briarpatch

 

Griots machines are excellent. Been using my Boss G21 for years.

I would recommend the G9 excellent machine and a brand new model for 2020.

 

Good get.....wash them first before you use them....very versatile towel

 

^^^^^^^this

 

Same recommendation you’re going to get from pretty much everyone here.

 

That stuff is light years ahead of its competition, though Cerakote looks really promising.

 

You have plenty of towels.

 

Never enough

 

Cerakote is the next try gonna apply on these steps Sunday after I get home from the ranch. They need it.
