If you're anything like me, you'll find yourself battling to
find time to detail your vehicle. So let's find some ways to
speed up the process. Today I'm gonna show you how to protect
and enhance your vehicle in less than five minutes, and that's
by using one of my favorite products right now, Fireball Easy
Coat Extra, which is a high shine super hydrophobic layer.
It's important to regularly apply a protection layer to your
vehicle, as this keeps the outside surfaces resisting the
elements and also makes maintenance far easier by repelling
dirt and grime both between cleans and also during the wash
process. There are three main types of product you can use; a
wax, a sealant or a coating. Fireball Easy Coat Extra falls under
the coating category and is made with Silicon Dioxide, or SiO2,
the same component of a hard ceramic coating but with a lower
concentration that is easy to use by both novice and
experienced detailers. One awesome thing about Easy Coat Extra is that you
can use it either completely by itself or on top of any existing
ceramic coating, wax or sealant. It also has an amazingly simple
spray on, rinse off application. If you've ever used liquid or
paste waxes before you know they can stain trims and you
generally only apply them to paint. Easy Coat Extra can be applied
to paint ,glass, trims and wheels, or simply put pretty much any
exterior surface on your vehicle with no worries about wax
staining trims or getting into seams. We're gonna show you
exactly how to use it and talk about the precautions you need
to take to ensure you get the best result possible in the least
amount of time. What better way to show you just how well Easy Coat Extra
works, but on this Subaru Forester, which hasn't had any protection
layers applied or even been washed for at least 12 months. Like
any good protection layer the first thing we need to do is
start with a clean car.
So now this cars clean we can really see the paint condition. The
water is really flat on here; so that suggests there's no
protection. I think it's about time we see what Easy Coat Extra
can do to the paint. When diluting this product, you wanna
use a ratio somewhere between 1:30 and 1:40. I'm
using this Chemical Guys spray bottle, which has dilution
ratios printed on it for easy mixing and an adjustable trigger to
ensure we can control the spray pattern when applying. Diluting this product
down means that this 250 mil bottle will make up to 10 liters
of usable products. That's enough to coat your car 40 times.
You wanna make sure the surface is extremely wet and there's no
sun on the panels at all, so it's really important to give the car a
thorough rinse before you continue. To apply the product simply spray
a light amount over the paperwork and glass covering it
thoroughly. Now the product has been sitting on there for
around 15 seconds, let's water blast it off and see how it looks.
And just like that you have instant beads. Don't forget this
car hasn't been waxed or protected in 12 months, and this is after
just one quick application of Easy Coat; and again just to show
you how easy and fast this really is i'm gonna do half this bonnet
and we're gonna do a 5050 shot.
Waiting for about 15 seconds, you can see straight away the
waters repelling off the surface and we can just rinse it off
and get rid of the rest of the product.
Now that we've coated this whole car with Easy Coat Extra it's
gonna make it super easy to dry and that's cause the paintwork is
repelling the water instead of before where it was just sitting
on there like a sheet.
As the day rolls to an end, let's have a quick recap on what
we've achieved with this Subaru Forester today. Firstly let's
not forget this thing hadn't had a clean in 12 months and it's
done 350,000 kms. There was no protection on it whatsoever and all we've
used today is a quick wash and Fireball Easy Coat Extra. We've only
used around 200 mils of diluted product, which is pretty
impressive given we've coated the paint work and the glass. So
what have we learned about Easy Coat Extra. If you're low on
time to detail your car, this is a real time saver. It's also
awesome value for money. And not only that but it can coat your paint,
your glass, your trims - every exterior surface on this vehicle
with minimal effort. a few things you wanna remember about this
product though, it doesn't like being used in the sun and you
always wanna work one or two panels at a time, keep the surface
really cool and wet and make sure to rinse the product off really
thoroughly and you'll get awesome results. We really hope
