Overview
Griot's Garage trades paste-wax application for a spray-and-wipe format here, an SiO2 ceramic wax in a 22 oz bottle that also covers wheels, trim, and chrome.
The '3-in-1' name refers to surface coverage, not three separate steps: one spray-wipe product for paint, plastic trim, rubber, wheels, and chrome instead of separate dedicated cleaners for each. Durability is described in months, which sets it apart from a multi-year dedicated ceramic coating even though it shares the SiO2 chemistry.
- SiO2 ceramic spray wax, spray-and-wipe application
- Works on paint, plastic trim, rubber, wheels, chrome
- Hydrophobic water beading described as lasting months
- 22 oz bottle, made in the USA
Who it's for
Owners who want ceramic-style water beading without a paste wax or coating application process, and who want one bottle that also treats trim and wheels. Not for anyone expecting coating-level, multi-year durability.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Spray-on application takes minutes
- Works across paint, wheels, plastic, and chrome
- Made in the USA
- Durability described in months, not years
- Sold as a single 22 oz bottle
Performance notes
The SiO2-infused formula is meant to lay down a protective layer in one spray-and-wipe pass. The hydrophobic surface it creates causes water to bead and sheet off, which Griot's Garage says reduces dirt adhesion and water spotting between washes, with UV and oxidation resistance built into the same layer.
