Initiated myself into club 303 Graphene. So. Much. Rubbing. I also Graphene’d my iPhone, why not?
I think it added 20% to my battery meter.

wax on.

I covered pretty much everything but the tires and the Tremor leg graters.

wax off.

Yeah, I am impressed.

I also graphene’d my hands. Won’t come off, too tired to care.

A little bit of tlc can go a long way.

Now that the hard part is done, getting it to this point, the easy part is just doing maintenance washes... Weekly. Lol

Honestly I tried 303 Graphene based on a earlier post here and I normally use Turtle wax Ice Seal and shine Hybrid. I put one on left side of the hood and the other on the other side. I could not tell the difference. Also beading up was the same. The turtle wax is easier to use though. Longevity it is hard to tell yet.

Now that said I keep my truck pretty good to begin with. I wash and wax allot. I do also use a clay bar a couple times a year. So possibly 303 Graphene might be better on vehicles that need more restoring hard to tell but for me I saw no difference so far.

I am going to give it another shot this week because it is warm and might be my last before winter. I am going to do one side with one and the other side with the other.

Do not get me wrong I think Graphene did a great job and 303 makes great products and easier than waxing but as of right now the Turtle wax ice is easier. There is no buffing need. Plus the spray bottle on the 303 does not work but I see now they have a problem with their spray bottles.

It did do a great job on your truck and the person who posted a little earlier. shows up nice in pictures.

Looks great! :like:

A little tip to make things easier next time is just do 2 panels then buff out. The longer it sits the harder it is to buff out. Adding a second (or third) coat greatly increases the shine and protection too. The Graphene detailer really makes the darker colors pop and gives it a super slick finish and nice gloss. :cool:

Ahhh. Now I find out. Bottle stopped spraying almost right away which probably led to me using too much and making it a pain in the ass to get off. Plus, I shouldn’t have done the whole truck before buffing it out. Also, I pretty well graphened my carport from kicking over the open bottle. Lessons have been learned.

My 303 spray bottle doesn't work worth a damn, either......

I saw a note on Amazon to contact them if your spray bottle does not work. They are having issues with them.

Yea I heard back from them and they are sending a new bottle. I do not know if it is just a empty spray bottle or a whole bottle with product. Either way that is good support.
Good to hear.

I try to buy my stuff in quantity, like a gallon....example is 303 Protectant. Quart on Amazon is $23 while a gallon is $61....like getting a quart free. Simple Green, Krud Cutter, ect.
Few years ago I bought a case (12) of pro sprayers on Amazon. Easy to re-use/re-fill.
And when I have had a product bottle go bad, I just grab one of the spray bottles and pour the product into one. I'm also able to carry what I need in the travel trailer separately, without buying the smaller bottles ( I use a LOT of 303 on the travel trailer especially when on the road for any length of time)
