Adam’s H2O Guard & Gloss - Revolutionary Hybrid Top Coat Technology Combines Silica Sealant, Polish Wax, and Quick Detailer Technology - Seals, Shines, and Protects All Exterior Surfaces (Combo)

I've been using Mckees Hydro Blue SIO2 Coating, which is the easiest thing on the planet to use, spray on wet car, rinse, dry car, great results, done. However, ever since I first saw the Adam's H20 I've wanted to try it and when I saw it on a lightning deal I grabbed it immediately. Although I do like the end result for the most part, I think it is a much bigger pain in the butt to use, therefore it's almost not worth it.If you wash your car in the fall or the spring it might not be as much of a pain because your car doesn't dry nearly as fast. However trying to use it in June or July when the weather is hot as soon as you wake up, that's when it becomes an act in futility. I wash the car and then try to keep it wet so I can spray the Adams on with one hand and then use a damp towel to spread it with the other hand and then you have to immediately dry it (before it dries itself) with a microfiber towel in your third hand...apparently. Im short on hands, if anyone has an extra, throw one this way please. Inevitably because I have to do it so fast I end up missing some and it gets streaky. The end result, if done correctly, does look pretty good and does last a while, however as I've stated before, the ease of using the McKees sio2 just blows this out of the water and that lasts months, with a hard glass-like shell you can feel on the paint. I don't get that same feeling of glass from Adams. In the end, I will definitely use the rest of the bottle, but I will not be purchasing another.

i bought more

I'm giving this a 5 based off the following: this is the first of this type of product I have tried, I have used it once on a 2018 Chevy Impala, it works just as it is advertised. There are no complicated steps or processes to follow. I completely washed the outside of my car with Adam's foaming shampoo, once my car was dry I applied the Adam's H2O guard and gloss in my garage out of direct sunlight (as you should do with all products)....later that same day while grocery shopping it poured down rain (always happens that way) this product creates great hydrophobic properties, so much so that as I would turn my vehicle the water would run off of the hood! Once the rain stopped and my car was dry.....there were no water spots or dirty spots typical of rain. My car literally looked as clean and shiny as it did prior to the rain!! My experience with this product is satisfactory, I will definitely buy more. This product can be used on a wet or dry vehicle. I did it dry....its as simple as spray on.....wipe off. I have not tried it on a dirty car (I suggest always cleaning thoroughly to avoid dirt particles causing scratching).....try this product!!! It wont disappoint!

I bought this not knowing what I was getting in to. No one I know had ever used it before. I bought a new car 3 months ago and detailed it myself, gave it a couple of coats of wax. There was no way I was spending $1000 on a ceramic coating so I decided to see what this stuff was about. I just gave the car a hand wash and while it was soaking wet, sprayed the Guard & Gloss on one panel at a time. I did everything, the glass, paint, wheels and black plastic trim. I am still amazed at the results. The car looked even better than it did after the wax.The directions say to use it every couple of months, but I wash my car at least once a week, because it sits under a carport and not in a sealed garage. With just the wax, there was a layer of dust on the car the day after a wash. With this stuff, it takes days for dust to settle and the car looks freshly detailed for much longer.I've been using the Guard & Gloss every 3 or 4 washes and during the in between washes, the water beads everywhere. It's even easier to dry it off. I love this stuff so much, I ordered a gallon of it. The bottle was good for 5 treatments on my rather large car and it is very easy to use.I can't recommend this stuff enough. If your car is detailed and waxed, this stuff protects it just fine. I don't see any need to spend all that money on a fancy ceramic coating as long as I have a bottle of G&G laying around.

Let me start by saying, I am extremely picky about what I use on my car. I absolutely won't use anything on it that stains black trim. I have a 2019 Lexus NX, white with black trim. I used the H2O Guard & Gloss on all of it. I was skeptical that, spraying a product on your car while it's wet, would provide an impressive result. But I was totally wrong. It left the most glossy smooth finish on the paint and the black trim looks a nice deep black as well. This stuff is great! And the microfiber towels that came with it are really nice as well. Once I try it out on my husband's 2014 black Camry, I will update my review. I'm anxious to see how it performs on a not-new car. The only negative I can say about it is that it doesn't spray very well at times. You have the choice of either a spray or a stream. Sometimes it comes out in more of a stream than a spray, even when set on spray. You just need to make sure you spread the product well when that happens. Otherwise, I'm very happy with this product.

This stuff is insane. I love this product for a few reasons: 1. It allows me to safely dry my truck without scratching, 2. It refreshes the base layer of wax and extends the protection, 3. It's safe for all surfaces and even helps protect my nano coated black plastics and even keeps the rubber window seals and seals on my tonneau cover, and 4....of course it's the gloss. Seriously amazing shine. I honestly think I get more excited about my paint after using this stuff than after I apply a true base coat of carnauba wax. It is a tad pricey but for what you get in that bottle, hell I'd pay more for it. I showed my buddy who is a detailing enthusiast like myself and he was blown away by how wet my white paint looks. White is a difficult color to make pop and shine deep. But this really makes that paint look dripping wet. So using this is easy but most make the mistake of spraying too much on each section they're drying. Only a couple fine mists per section (i.e. a door or fender or half a hood) is all you need. It may streak if you use too much but don't worry just wipe with the damp towel and dry real quick and it buffs out effortlessly.

Really great stuff for what you're paying for. I only rated durability 4/5 stars because where I live there is a lot of pollen and bugs so every few days my car is covered in crap. So I can't testify to its durability 100%, but this product is super easy to apply and leaves an unbelievable shine.

Looks great, went on easy and will come off easy if you don't do to big of a spot. I washed then used the Adam's wax first then lightly misted with water, then Adam's H2O Guard, nice shine!. If it doesn't hold up that well, I will be adjust my rating.

Doesn't work in repelling water to bad, gloss is not bad. all depends on your age and condition of your paint

I just applied it yesterday, waiting for rain to see how it performs.Super easy to apply and don't have to use that much ( I have a SUV).

This stuff is the best
