woodentiger86 I remember you have Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic Wax right? Can this be use as the after wash drying aid method? Does it need few hours to cure? I anticipate the weather will consistently having evening rain for next few days, so not possible to do ceramic coating as that requires at least 1 day to fully cure. Also now I see there's Hybrid Ceramic "Liquid" Wax, which is better for longevity?
Yes it can but make sure the panel is wet and don't spray too much, otherwise you keep fighting with streaking. Hybrid ceramic liquid wax the yellow one is more durable than the blue one hybrid ceramic wax. The blue one no need curing, after applied if raining, the water instantly activated the hybrid ceramic wax. My almost three months as photo taken today downfall. Some beads started to become weaker.
Anyone using osren's buffing towel? Is it supposed to be more grippy when buffing? I worried that i would cause marring since its harder/grippier to buff using it..

Just found from Shopee there's no more stock for blue Hybrid Ceramic Wax, only the green version Hybrid Ceramic Liquid Wax. But youtube there comparison video seems blue version is better
Damn frustrated no roof-shaded area for me to properly work on, these few days evening either heavy shower rain or misty rain... Finished hand application compound the car after 2 days, just now plan to give a wash and do ceramic coating, but start misty rain again... woodentiger86 I remember you have Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic Wax right?

Yes, used HCW before. From my experience, no curing time needed. 2 ways to apply - either the wet method or the dry which is the way majority of us tends to do with our products.
Video above was taken when I finished the product so I sprayed it liberally on my engine and sprayed with garden hose.

Better is because it is way too easier to apply, it is almost like spray wax. I also like the blue one than yellow. As the result shown in previous post, it lasts almost 3 months. Not too shabby for such a easier application.
Just now after evening rain managed to decon wash my car and proceed with ceramic coating. To recap I did Meguiar Ultimate Compound using hand applicator for past 2 days, managed to lift up most water mark and residue, tiring but I'm satisfied.
So when sunset, I brought out white LED battery-powered light to proceed the coating job, to my horror, under the white LED light I'm able to see the round circular light haze of my Ultimate Compound work! During daytime I didn't see it, but it was now visible circular pattern under LED light, omg. So I ignore it and proceed with coating job, luckily applying to coating able to masquerade those circular haze and making the paint looks glossy (black car).
Any idea what is the circular haze? It doesn't seems to be scratches, but sort of like compound residue?
