The Chemical guys are having a great sale right now. Anyone know if there products are good? I’m looking at their orbital buffer, pads, cutting compound and polish all for like $105. A lot of these companies have great marketing and sell a lot of stuff on instagram but you never know if it’s any good.

ive tried the ceramic wax they sell and the hydro quick ceramic spray detailers and were nothing special

i do like the quick wash they sell you mix with distilled water to do washes without using hose... comes out nice and smooth


the large micro fiber towels they sell are really nice got some of those

I was thinking about looking for a good orbital buffer as well to start doing some yearly fiberglass tune ups on the boat and camper.

is this a good one?

Always had good luck with their chemicals and waxes. Currently using their Black on Black, Invincible APC, and their VRP. All with great results.

If you happen to have a black or dark colored vehicle then you may want to try their Black Light car soap as it does bring out a different looking shine that turns out pretty nice with regular washings.

I have one of the TORX RO buffers they sell and it works well.
I have one as well and am happy with it. I've done 4 of our vehicles so far and no issues.

I wasn't as happy with a couple of their cleaner/polishes, I got the same or better results with Meguires products at a reduced cost.

Their quick detail and waterless wash are both great for wipe down, and cheap

With my last occupation I washed a lot of vehicles (Throttle knows what I mean), this is just a small amount of my investment with their products.
