If you'd like to try Over Coat I've got around 1/2 a bottle of the latest 5.2 version in my cabinet that I won't be using (Winter has arrived and don't think I'll be washing for quite a while!).
PM me your address and I'll ship it to you at no cost to you...and who knows, a pack of those glass towels might just fall into the box as well as accidents happen!

I’m sure I will try the Rinseless.

The reformulated Sonax Brilliant Shine Detailer has been gaining a lot of attention recently, and many are curious to see how it performs. CarPro’s latest ceramic spray is another product being talked about, often compared to other favorites like Overcoat. For towels, Korean microfiber blends are becoming a popular choice due to their softness and suitability for delicate finishes. It's always great to hear how these products perform in real-world applications—keep sharing your thoughts on SiRamik Lustrous Plus!

My burn rate on products is really low these days, so I really need to focus on using up what I've already got on hand.
That said, I'll be re-coating my car in the spring and will be giving Armour Detail Supply's Quartz Coating a try.

That's what I've been doing for years, but this year I fell off the wagon on Black Friday. I have been agonizingly throwing out a few old polishes and things, but I still have way too much OLD stuff, and now new stuff on top of that. Some things never change.

I'm planning on reworking my Home Touchless approach(es), see if I can speed things up a bit at least for the Maintenance Washes.
Got some new pressure washer stuff and finally bought a Foam Cannon. We'll see what I end up doing and how it works out.

Where can i find infomation about Sonax?
And Carpro are you referring to Reload 2.0?
Korean micorofibers have been the all the rage for a decade or more now.
That's exactly what I did in 2024... I used up the products that I had. Now for 2025 I can start trying some new products
Sent you a PM

I'll probably try Griot's new rinseless wash as well as their ceramic glass coating kit

I am interested in the new Griot's rinseless also.
MAYBE my unopened (and unused) Solution Finish Black Trim Restorer Kit I bought three years ago with a "large" (for me, anyway) order from the Autopia Store when I was trying to put-my-money-where-my-mouth-is and financially support the owners of this forum. Yes, the nitrile gloves were "missing" from the kit (meaning they manually put the kit together at the store from inventory stock items at the time of the order) and I never complained about a $1.00 pair of gloves that would cost $3.00 for them to ship to me. Not the reason for NOT using this product, though, as I have been using Megs Ceramic Trim Restorer (the pink stuff) with good success, and I bought some Griot's Garage Ceramic Trim Restorer to replace it as an OTC product when I could not find the Megs CTR at any store in the Green Bay area. Yes, I know, it seems silly (actually stupid, Captain Obvious, but we DO NOT say "stupid" in this forum for politically correctness reasons) NOT to be using the Solution Finish since it is such a good trim restorer, albeit a little pricey and have an installation learning curve to apply properly, including wearing nitrile gloves.
Speaking OTC products, I would like to find and try Turtle Wax's Hybrid Solutions Pro 1-And-Done Compound Correct and Finish. Lots of good things have been said about it in this forum and it will not break my detailing budget (AKA it is cost-effective or "cheap", I mean frugal, like Captain Obvious)
AND while not related to using a new product, but still in the detailing vein, using proper Personal Protective Equipment when I detail, LIKE nitrile gloves with using some of the car-care chemicals and ear plugs when using a leaf blower for drying vehicles with a 2-bucket wash or the shop vac when vacuuming vehicle interiors for extended periods of time. Safety is no accident (pun intended!)

Ha, Bunky, Perl has been out forever. I got a bunch of little sample bottles of CarPro stuff I guess from Autogeek, a long long time ago (runs downstairs to look at expiration date of HydrO2--mfd in 2014). I've never tried my Perl (or the Reload or Eraser).
