I am proud to say that I am normally not brand loyal. I seek out the products that perform the best with my methods and I use them to their potential. I spend a lot of time testing different products to ensure that I can speak from experience as to their suitability on a job. That being said, there is something called synergistic compatibility within the detailing industry. That is, a particular company has developed their products to work together. Angelwax is one of those companies. They are a small group of industrial chemists that develop and manufacture their product line. There is a lot of important information in that last sentence. Their founders are chemists, not retailers. They develop their products, not hire a third party. They manufacture their products, they don't buy it from someone else and put their label on it. All this adds up to a group with ownership of the product and process and the quality reflects that ownership commitment.
This scuba blue allroad belong to a long time friend. His wife has an A3 that I ceramic coated a year ago and he messaged me recently to tell me he washed both cars and while the A3 was much dirtier, it was easier to clean and looked better. I recognised that it's a huge problem when a car guy tells me his wife's car looks better than his, so we got him on the books for an angelwax detail.
