Epic Automotive Detailing, Subscribed because your videos are so much fun!
I started using Auto Finesse ceramic snow foam after washing and detailing my car last November. I stopped using wax for the same reason you stated which was time verses outcome, especially during the cold winter months. The results I am getting are as good if not better than using wax, I also found that they cover all of those hard to get to areas like door shuts and panel gaps in the body work which a wax would struggle to cover which in my book gives better protection. I always fully rinse my wheel arches and I now use the product to spray these areas to provide even better protection for my car. I will give this new product a go when my current ceramic snow foam has run out, thank you for another great video. Best wishes

You wax a car to seal the paint surface and protect the finish. I live in Australia and it gets up to 45 c in summer. Cars that are not waxed have their top coat peeling in three years. I have a couple of cars and one of them is a 25-year-old Toyota Camry that lives outside in the elements. The paint, apart from life, with a few scratches is nearly in showroom condition, why? Because I wax it with a non-abrasive wax, not polish but wax.

Thank you for this very useful and informative video Dave. Those ceramic snow foams and nano sealants save so much time and effort.
Waxing, for me, is one of the more satisfying jobs. And the job one I look forward to the most after a clay bar. The band I use smells, and works phenomanally. However, this product also looks great, and would love to try it in the future.

Great video, I do similar. After you have washed your car, get a 5 litre pump spray put 5 caps of Turtle wax ceramic wash and wax in, mix, fill up with 5 litres of water and spray away, rinse and repeat for layering if required. I use a 5 litre spray because it saves time and is easier than keep filling a small cannon up, and it’s very inexpensive.

Seen a video project farm did on the turtle wax stuff. Looks impressive
I have been using a similar product from an Italian big brand for a few years in my cars. Initially I used fusso coat or meguiars ceramic wax. With each wash I applied this product. With a lack of time, I started using only the product as protection between washes and even stopped using sealant on the windows. Sometimes they go more than 2 months without washing, around 2500/3000km between washes, in conditions of heavy rain, mud, that sea air that leaves a film of salt... and even so, the protection is there when I wash again. At least 30/40 minutes I save on washing. Honestly i don't remember the last time i apply wax in my cars😂 maybe 3 years or more. I have to see if I can find a reseller that ships to my adress because I was curious to test it. In respect for yumcars i will not tell what brand i'm talking but simple googling everyone can find easily. Dave I always enjoy your videos. Keep the good work.
Hi dave, I've been watching your videos for some time now and couldn't agree more with this video. Nick the owner of yum cars is a great guy, very knowledgeable and passionate with what he does. I was a avid autoglym user for many years but have since switched to yum products over the past year and the results are amazing, the products speak for themselves, nick is always on hand via social media or in person on the events he holds 1st Sunday of every month for any advice anyone may seek. For me it's simply a 25min drive to his unit to a resupply. Keep up the great work, cheers.

Nice upload as always 😊, may give this one a go and have it as on optional extra .
In a business context, these are amazing. Cheap, quick, easy to apply with good results. I tried autoglym polar series, and really didn't like it, the way it worked , how it looked next to wax/spray wax / rinse wax, and how long it lasted. I also didn't like it coating the front glass either. I felt like I lost control of the process, but I see Bilt Hmaber has a refomulation of touch on. This can be applied a few ways, and this might be my new winter wax top up :) Also works with touch less. For the record I do still love the TW rinse n shine and gyeon wet wax.
Snow foam coatings are a game changer completely agree - especially for large cars/trucks. I like to do a coat of Garage Therapy Ceramic Shield spray on coating and then top up with the foam once a month. After six months, do a decon shampoo wash and then reapply CS and repeat. The Halfords ceramic foam is pretty good too - not much difference from Valet Pro Snow Shield.
Brilliant Dave, I started following your channel about 2 months ago, and man have I learnt so much. I'm not into doing anything like a business but still for someone who want to show some pride in their cars. You are the main man with all the knowledge. Question Dave I'm living across the pond in Ireland. After watching you it's given me belief at almost 60 I need to buy a decent power washer. The amount of cash I spend between going to the garage and just paying to use their equipment, plus I can get it detailed sometimes twice a year. I have seen most of your reviews on power washers, but I understand you need to try and keep most of the companies somewhat happy in what and how you say something. I need a good recommendation on what power washers I should be looking for, where overtime I can add to it. Just remember, in Ireland, we wouldn't have a big market for reconditioned washers Even if you could give me 3 options, a max budget to get me stared of maybe €600 that's roughly £525. Again THANK YOU. YOU THE MAN

Well done Dave. You are the first KZread detailer to promote the foaming ceramic coatings. I offer all my clients CarPro HydrO2 Foam (it comes as a spray concentrate and premixed version as well) as my final coating as part of the service. I charge more, but every 3 months or sooner I get all my clients calling for repeating the process. I tried to buy YUM but to get it to Australia is cost prohibitive. I mix it 1:15 in my foam cannon and I bought one just for this purpose. Lloyd

Sounds a great Product! I use Gyeon Wet Coat… which beads as much as the Yum product… and provides a good level of protection!
I have always waxed my cars, but with my latest car, my ceramic coated M2, I have simply been using a mixture of 1 part P&S dream maker with 9 parts P&S bead maker. As I wash my car every week, longevity of the product isn't a factor. The two products mixed and applied from a hand spray, only needs a tiny amount of misting on the panel, and it doesn't matter if it's boiling hot or freezing cold, it seems exactly the same. Beading to die for, and a lovely gloss. No rubbing, no buffing, literally mist a panel and spread the product out. Once every panel is done, a quick once-over with a quality soft microfibre to just remove any slight haze, and that's it. I know it wont last long, but it doesn't matter as I do it every week. I have used about 100ml of product after 4 applications.
Mohs evo topped with cancoat evo topped with Q2 Wax. Best combo I have ever used on a ruby red pearl. ZERO ceramic coating can compare to the looks of a good wax period. Luckily Gyeons Q2 Wax is designed to work over ceramic coatings and NOT clog them up. Actually more hydrophobic than most coatings anyway due to the polysilazane (im sure i butchered the spelling).
I have been using Gyeon products of late with there wetcoat which is awesome and also Gyeon bathe which is the same as the YUM product you are showing . I agree it's much easier than using a wax even thou i miss the buffing off to see that gleam .
Great video dave👍, I think when it comes to waxing your car it’s down to preference? Some like the idea of taking time to go over every panel and buff to a shine. And some like the quicker way with spray wax if they are in a hurry? Also if you’re lucky enough to have a large garage? After washing and drying you can back the car in and shut the doors to keep the atmospheric dust from landing on the freshly waxed surface.
Been using this stuff for quite a while…I find it very good…use yum foam first…then a hand wash finished with foam+. Can use the detailing spray or ceramic spray occasionally on maintenance washers

You took the spray and rinse sealant like meguiars hybrid ceramic spray (if you follow the instructions, I’ll hand apply it) and made it way better! This is great for mobile waxing for sure!
That’s incredible. Great video, as always. 👍 I’m definitely gonna try this. I’m not in the business but have always used the best that I could afford on my cars. My current regime is B&H Auto Foam or Touch-Less (during winter, that’s all for most washes), then AG UHD shampoo and at waxing time, it’s Meguiars Ultimate Liquid Wax. In between’s get Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic spray or Turtle Wax’s version. 🐢 What I will add, is that on the perfect day, there’s nothing more enjoyable about hand waxing your pride and joy. It’s therapeutic. 😁
Amazing product which Yum have put their enviable skills and experience into. Yum + works perfectly alongside all their products to give the perfect finish every time. One other positive for using as a snow foam is that all surfaces where water runs, are given a coat of protection 👍

I agree, I used the meguiar's ceramic spray in the blue bottle. Exactly the same job at the paste carnuba wax. The instruction advise first time you should dry the product with a finishing towel. To make 1 bottle go far, I always gently mist over the paintwork and buff it in. Washing off is not as effective IMO. You csnt towel dry the foam, but the ceramic spray wax you can

I clay barred both of our vehicles and then used ceramic spray. It lasted six months through the winter here in Seattle. I’m amazed that the water was still beading after the whole winter. I’m going to try your method this spring. Guess I need a foam gun. Thanks
Thanks! Once I discovered the ceramic/wax sprays I’ve never gone back to waxing.
I've been using a similar product from Kosh chemie, it's called Protector Wax, but they have a dedicated snow foam aswell
Looks like a game changer….we finish our Maintenance valets on ceramic protected cars with CarPro ReLoad, to add that bit extra protection and give those Hydrophobic properties….this looks like it does exactly the same without the worry of streaking on dark paints….👍👌🇮🇲
So do you do a normal wash first? Do you need to use a specific soap before adding yum?
I was a little sceptical but can assure you it's brilliant 👍🙂
I really like your videos and I subbed. I have a question if you have time. Last weekend I washed my car and then used spray wax on it. It looks good, but now I want to use paste wax. Is it OK to put paste wax over the spray wax? Or should I just wash the car again to get the spray wax off, then start with paste wax. Thanks for your advice.
After every single wash I apply meguires ceramic spray wax, after the first base application the maintenance spray and rinse is so cheap and easy, and I swear the shine just keeps getting wetter looking as the week goes on! I can’t imagine anything else I’d need to swap to as it’s perfect, for me!! I even use it on my digger!!

Dave, you've not used Bilt Hamber Touch-on shampoo, it's versatile, meaning you can use it in a snowfoamer, spray bottle or wash bucket. The beadage is insane 🙌 You now can get it in a 1ltr bottle for around £18 don't quote me though
I like to wax the car in the spring and for autumn and winter I clear it off and use a ceramic sealant like Flex Wax which I top up with weekly washes. I just like applying wax for the warmer months, the sunny days. I don’t know why. I think it’s just that feeling of spending a few hours outside, polishing and waxing. Something comforting about it.

You can try the Gyeon Q2M wet coat for 15£ 500ml. It's enough for 15 cars and takes less time
I'm guessing this is similar to Carpro's HydroFoam (part of the Hydro lineup, which is their ceramic sealant, and comes in a number of forms/concentrations). We don't have Yum products in my country but we get Carpro. I recently went through the same thought process as you - my father's car is 20+ years old and hasn't been well maintained for ages now. Our country is tropical and very hot; people used to use synthetic liquid waxes for a long time but nowadays graphene and ceramic spray sealants are the rage. I used Gyeon Wet Coat on my father's car because I already had it (I use it for my wheels) but will probably get HydroFoam in the future. I don't like waxes for my dad's car - it's a black car and it's 38C in the sun for us humans - any wax will be getting boiled on that black paint! My own car is ceramic coated with Carpro CQuartz Pro, my maintenance wash routine is prewash with Koch Chemie GSF, contact wash with Carpro Reset, and then yes I actually do simply dry it without a finisher 😂 Reset does wonders already. Every 2 months I top the car up with Carpro Reload as a finisher. I don't like to put any other sealants on the paintwork, nothing compares to the slickness of the ceramic coating (regularly topped up by Reload) so far.
Im a valeter and use foam plus its good . Plus it dont build up on car like some when u end up with bad finish after time.

Happy you are enjoying it! The build up you are 100% right on, most products act as a make up on the clearcoat whereas Foam+ chemically cross links with the clearcoat. This is why you see a different level of hydrophobics, actually gloss increase and it will never clog itself

Been using Auto Finesse's Lavish for a few years now. Similar stuff it seems. I use it particularly in winter when I just can't stand being outside that much. So I do a rinse to get mud and stuff off, then Bilt Hamber Surfex HD, then BH Touch-Less, then the BH Korosol, then a good rinse again, then the Lavish. It clearly isn't detailing it, but it just makes the car look presentable without even touching it, and it takes about an hour. Perhaps you could do a video (if you haven't) - is it possible to get a car looking good without touching it?
The reason I used waxes before going onto ceramic coatings was the slickness and the gloss shine. There is a difference between wax and ceramic coatings as to the depth in gloss.The spray your putting on looks to be more of a water repellent? What is the gloss on the paint compared with this product to a wax? or a ceramic coating?
I’ve previously used Autobrite’s top gloss and whilst the results were great, similar to those in the video. I found that it actually dried out the rubber for my window seals which lead to a noise I can only describe as a soft creak when going up and down my drive. With your experience anything with “gloss” effect drys out rubber seals? Which is why I’ve always spent the extra time hand waxing then add a quick detailer on top after.
I haven't used any ceramic foam-sprays, but the stuff after the wash is working just as well... I mean the spray-bottle ones, which you spray and wash off.
Wax is still good but the foam is just easyer to do.

Even the turtle wax hybrid pro flex wax is similar and wonder if it's works by adding it in a snow foam lance instead. If it did work would be much much cheaper than this stuff.
I'd be interested to know how this compares to Autoglym Polar Seal? I'm about to buy either but not sure which is better.
Thanks

@@epicautomotivedetailing your videos have been amazing. Thank you for sharing your experiences with various products. As I’m new to this game and buying a car which I want to look after myself I’ve gained so much knowledge about the process from you. Loved the content where you had a newbie like myself wash their car. Brilliant keep up the great content 🏎️🏎️🍻
Have you tried Koch Chemie's Protector Wax? Would love to know how it stacks up
What are your thoughts on this product for paint protection? I have always waxed cars to protect my paint and I wash my cars weekly. Am I still better ceramic coating my car and then using a product like this to ensure the longevity of the coating maybe as you said at a half strength.

ceramic coatings deliver in a different technology and chemistry, resin and solvent delivery systems. Foam+ is a water activated and delivered product that works great as a topper on coated vehicles with the most important benefit of cross linking with the base layer rather than sitting on top like make up.
Ive been using the new Infinity Wax express sealent ,giving a great finish and theyre saying 2-3 months protection
I tend to use EZ Car Care Elixir as you only need to add 5ml of product to 500ml of water. My only concern is the actual level of protection it gives. I understand it is good for adding a hydrophobic layer but in terms of actual protection it is nothing compared to a proper ceramic sealant. I'd say it's good to use to top up protection over a ceramic sealant but on its own it doesn't actually provide much protection.
Loving these vids but have a question I'm a beginner and just looking to buy all the stuff i need to give my car a good monthly clean, this looks nice and easy with good results. When you say yiu skip the was stages, what are we skipping: rinse, wheel cleaner, pre wash, foam, shampoo and then this or ahoild i be polishing too?

Thank you yes I skipped the wash stage for the video meaning I didn't film it as people came for the product not the entire clean
Looks very similar to polar shield and bilt hamber touch on?

best way to see for yourself is buy all 3 and test 😀
I wash my car EVERY week, use spray wax and spray ceramic sealant weekly as I love taking care of my car and checking for chips! Used a dark-car wax today, took me so long to apply. Will be sticking to the ceramic sealant from now on🤭
……… but, if you’re not waxing your car, you’re doing things that other people impose on you, actual or inferred. I love waxing my car, actually or perceived. It’s therapeutic when I do it, it’s my time. If I had a pound for every time I said, “if anyone needs me I’m cleaning the car”, I’d be a rich man. Oh and, don’t go ‘streaking’, you’ll get in trouble! 😁

This is exactly right. I regard waxing my car as a treat for me, not for the car. Given the choice between waxing the car and an afternoon shopping, I know which I’d prefer !

My car failed it's annual inspection because a spray on/foam coat got on the windscreen, and effected the visibility while using the wiperblades with washer fluid. I applied it the day before. And it really did look great on my cars. Even though the inspection was very strict, the visibility was worse. And should be considered in this type of products.

Out on Interest which product did you use as this does not sound right. As an example Foam+ will leave no film on paint or glass to cause your issue

Hi @epicautomotivedetailing How does this compare to Hydro2 foam, also you don't/ever get streaks at all? Thanks
How this compares to the Wet Coat in terms of ease of use, time to apply and cost per use?
@YumCars
Ай бұрын
Seeing as this is a foam application a lot easier and faster Cost per use is no comparison as it is a concentrate rather than a ready to use. 100ml in the foam cannon will actually get you 2 applications And also this does not water spot as foam+ has an inbuilt safety factor
Thrse ceramic snow foams are definitely the way to go these days there's no getting away from it
If your car is exposed to the elements 24/7, I agree that wax isn't the best option anymore. If you have a garage and use it, modern synthetic blended and SiO2-based waxes can and will last a year or longer. My car is garaged daily and has had a coat of Meguiar's hybrid ceramic on it for over a year now. It still beads decently. Waxes are also less expensive and much less of a pain to apply than coatings (paint prep). The ceramic foam is an interesting idea, but I can't imagine it has the durability of even a spray sealant. No doubt the formula will improve over time and become a real player in the protection arena.
Dave, I wax my car every week and it has a ceramic coating. Can you honestly recommend this Yum product? And can you apply it over existing products
