I am not a fan of chemical guys. Usually they are mid tier for their price, there’s better. Meguires and Purple Slice for example.

II use the Hydro Speed, Hydro View for detailing and the Hydro suds for the wash. I use them all for both the Explorer and the Hellcat. I've tried the Turtle Wax versions but wasn't as impressed. Both my vehicles are ceramic coated so with the Chem Guys detailing products it makes the gloss even more profound. I was never a fan of the waterless wash from any company because it makes me cringe to detail a car that has excessive dust/dirt. Though there are better products, I just prefer Chem Guys because that's all I had ever used besides the experimentation with Turtle Wax

I've used a lot of Chemical Guys over the years, and for that matter most other well known brands. I have moderated on a Detailing Forum and was in a position to try a lot of products from a variety of manufacturers. I've come to the conclusion that no one manufacturer is the best at everything.

Chemical Guys isn't my first choice, though I do still use their Mr. Pink Car Wash Soap for about everything except my vehicles. They are a company that makes products that accomplish the same thing in about 3 or 4 price ranges. I never understood that type of marketing is, and I wonder if the average guy could tell the difference between their entry level products and their premium products.

Don't get me wrong, they will get the job done, but if I were to recommend a single niche product line that has something for about any detailing need, I'd probably point you towards PoorBoy's World.
