Wash and Detailing: Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions

This pH-balanced, ultra-premium car wash soap utilizes an advanced ceramic polymer formula to leave your car sparkling clean and well-protected.
The two-in-one solution saves time and effort, leaving behind a layer of superhydrophobic car wax that acts as a powerful drying agent while providing maximum protection to painted surfaces.
Benefits:
- Enhances reflective high gloss when used with other Hybrid Solutions products.
- Effortlessly glides over surfaces to remove soils and residues.
- Promotes water beading for faster dry times and long-lasting shine.

How to Use Ceramic Wash and Wax:
- Shake the Product: Shake the bottle well to ensure optimum performance.

- Wash the Car: Starting from the top, scrub and rinse your car in small sections (2’ x 2’), ensuring the soap doesn’t dry on the car. Avoid washing in direct sunlight to prevent water spotting.
