Gyeon Bathe, Cure & Wet Coat quick thoughts

[scotty76]

I recently splurged some cash on a few Gyeon products and thought I'd collect my thoughts here. There's a lot of hype around detailing but I prefer to try stuff and see what I think. Gyeon was chosen for a couple of reasons: 1) my wife's car has Gyeon MOHS+ on it so need to maintain that 2) my car has Kamikaze ISM on it which I was looking for a topper for that wasn't the ludicrously expensive Overcoat.

So here we go...

Bathe

What is it? Shampoo suitable for all coatings. I used 35ml in my 20l wash bucket.
What did I think? Sudsy and excellent cleaning ability. Liked it.
Value for money 8/10 (1:500 dilution so good value)

Cure

What is it? Spray sealant suitable for use standalone or to extend the life of quartz coatings.
What did I think? A couple of sprays per panel gave excellent shine and slickness. It didn't smear which is an issue I had with Carpro Reload (still a great product but care needed on black).
Value for money 9/10

Wet Coat

What is it? Spray on / rinse off sealant. Super lazy.
What did I think? Squirt it on and pressure wash it off to leave a nice shine and awesome beading. Uses quite a lot of product per car so not going to last long.
Value for money 5/10

Good write up - might have to try the Cure after my dodo juice stuff runs out

@scotty76 Are cure and wet coat similar? Do you need to use both?

Hey Keef. Not necessary to use both. For translation purposes from Carpro...

Cure = Reload
Wet Coat = Hydr02 / Hydr02 Lite

I'll be sticking to Cure as you can spray it on a wet car so not much different to Wet Coat and it'll go further.

Wet Coat is pretty handy as a quick protect on wheels. But it ain't going to last. Reckon I've used 250ml on 2 cars plus wheels.

Nice little reviews @scotty76
Where are the pic's my friend ?

Still got a bottle of Gyeon Cure I haven't had time to try out yet

So many Detailing products, so little time

i find with hydro... just a few squirts per panel, and then i spread with a MF to get full coverage and make it go further

Thanks Andy. Polished Bliss offer similar advice for Wet Coat. I just decided in the first instance to try it as advertised i.e. spray and rinse.

Sorry BH got round to the write up after the fact. Need to get a photo of the Wet Coat beading as it's really impressive for such a quick product.

i've since switched to hydro lite, results the same as hydro but it's a lot cheaper!

 

[Keef]

Hydro 2 lite is so quick n easy and great beading results

@scotty76 - Great finish buddy

@scotty76 nice work but this isn't helping with my decision for my next coating!

 

[Raiden]

With the 'wet coat' does it make drying the car easier once sprayed on?

Yes I would say so.
