Turtle Wax 53409 Solutions Coating 16 Reviews Summary

Application Ease

Pros:

• "This is the easiest to apply, best looking finish product I've ever used."
• "Super easy to apply and buff to a good shine."
• "And just 'two squirts' per panel? Yes, that's ALL it takes and the surface instantly turns into a mirror."
• "The spray coating was very easy to apply and buff."
• "This ceramic spray works perfect for people like me. Its hard to mess up and makes my cars look great."
• "Easy to apply, and gives a long lasting deep shine and slick finish with excellent water repellency."
• "It's easy to apply."

Cons:

• "If you apply too much, it will streak and it will be hard to buff out."
• "Went on like a dream, but getting it all off and polished was ALOT of work."
• "The direction claims easy to apply and remove. It was damn hard to remove and leaves wax marks all over my car."
• "I was cautious using this the first time because of streaking."
• "For what's advertised as a relatively easy application for finish protection, following the instructions exactly, I could never apply and remove without horrible streaking left behind."
• "I have found that it is virtually impossible, though, to apply without streaking, which is especially noticeable on top surfaces like the hood."
• "This product leaves terrible streaks on black paint."

Longevity and Protection

Pros:

• "I like that the ceramic wax will last more than a year."
• "It has been just over 4 weeks and the coating is still holding up well."
• "The coating works great. Purchased one over a year ago and the car stills looks great."
• "The car looks showroom new after a 2 coat application about six months ago."
• "This stuff really brings out depth in the paint and hides minor swirl marks like a charm!"
• "I did 2 coats of this in 2019 and other than yearly chemical decontamination - I have not had to use mechanical decontamination and strip down to bare clearcoat and start over."
• "This product appears to last a long time even on a just a single coat."

Cons:

• "This product is Rated as 12months, not even close.it only lasts a week or two at most."
• "12 months is a bit unrealistic."
• "Essentially its going to take you 2 days of curing to get what turtle wax claims 12 months of protection! My experience has only been about 8 - 9 months in the Northeast of the US."
• "With pre preparation, it does what it promises, but durability is only about half of their claim of 12 months... More like 5 to 6 months..."
• "After the next car wash, I have little to no protection and need to apply the wax again."
• "However, it does not last over a month and less if it rained."
• "My hood is showing signs of it not holding up but we are almost at 6 months."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "It also happened to be one of the most affordable."
• "This is great for the price."
• "Price on 2 bottles was excellent."
• "This works as well as anything I’ve tried and the value is great."
• "And,, inexpensive."
• "Great product you can pick up at most local stores for a reasonable price and get great performance that could cost much more in other 'detailer' products."
• "Plus you can spray a lot on your car and not break the bank."
