A decent price for the ceramic spray protection. I am unable to post the Member Offers page due to an error. There are more offers mentioned here.
Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic Detailer for $24 (Usually $40) is also a good deal.

How it is compared to Bowden Bead Machine. I know this one is Ceramic coating but eventually end result is same. Isn’t it?
I like it better.
Better gloss and beading and lasts alot longer. If dampen an applicator pad or a towel slightly, squirt a bit on the towel and apply like a normal sealant, than buff off, itll last well past 6 months on a clean slate.
You will also get around 6 months if you apply it as stated for "Initial" application. Couple of sprays on a wet panel and dry. "Wet" meaning excess water sheeted off.
Can you do a waterless wash with the Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic Detailer ?
Not really designed for it, could end up damaging the surface. Pretty sure they have waterless wash solutions though
Good product + good price. Still have 3/4 bottle otherwise I'd jump on it.
I apply as per Car Craft Auto Detailings recommendation (dry application+buffing). It is better than Megi's wet application for sure.
Turtle Wax Hybrid Seal n Shine ("Ice") is cheaper and probably at least as good if anyone's looking for alternatives. Sometimes under $20 at SCA. There are some comparative "test" videos on Youtube if you search. Pan comparo here
Is Hybrid S&H and Ice are same products?
Yes. Discussed on Ozb previously.

The turtle stuff is well rated in the youtube reviews by a few. I still got half bottle of this stuff plus half meguires and 1/3 of autoglym. The meguires stuff lasts pretty well though (better than the other two) so if the turtle one lasts even longer than that like the online reviews claim, it's good stuff.
Looks like the Turtle Wax ICE Seal N Shine is a clear winner!
But as he says, it's just a guide. There are other comparison test videos which also rate TW "Ice" highly though. Works well for me.
They also have the new version "Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Wax" available here, should be better.

Do you actually need a buffing machine
The stuff is thicker than a lot of others, possible without a buffer but hard work.
You should apply this with hand . An applicator pad and micforiber will do.
I tried this and used Microfibre to wipe off. I don't think this is the way.
You literally wash your car, don't let it dry, spray this on the car while wet and then get a hose to rinse off.
Then you can wipe down your car.
Seems you should lay down a base layer first. How often you'd need to redo that is the question.
The instruction says don’t rinse off with water if it is the very first time you apply it to your car.
If my car is coated with Ceramix Pro - can I use this ontop to top it off?
I tried this and others incl turtle Wax etc and now only use 'the last coat'. The Last Coat gives the best gloss, best water beading and lasts longest by far.
Hi Logical, May I ask where did you purchase The Last Coat from?
I bought a box of 4 direct from the US. Arrived within a week.
Thank you Logical.
Just bought this recently and pretty happy with the results. Be aware that when applying this product, take the approach that "less is more"
