Technician`s Choice Tech582

There's a guy on AGO who swears by the TEC582 and also buys it by the gallon. The other one getting a lot of buzz is the Feynlab Hybrid Ceramic Detailer.

So I got to use this a few times, it really reminds me of FK425, not super slick when first applied, but once cured it gets nice and slick. It seems to have a balanced look. I can't say I'm head over heels after first use, but it does smell really good, like a pina colada. I got rid of FK425 out of my stash because it didn't do anything amazingly, it was just a mid pack performer. I'm hoping as I use this some more it has some standout functionality, otherwise I have a gallon to use up somewhere...lol.

Dan, I cut it 1:1 (with dist water). I find the biggest impact to be on cars that don't have any sort of protection. It really boosts the gloss after a routine wash. The owners always comment on how much better it looks.

I tried how it does on fading hard plastic trim vs my favorite spray wax, OCW, and it did surprisingly well. I think that darkening effect translates into pop on less than well maintained paint.
