Product Information
Full details
Triplewax Ceramic Sio2 Gloss Wax is ideal for car enthusiasts looking to upgrade from traditional carnauba waxes to a more durable, hydrophobic finish. This spray-on wax combines ceramic Si02 technology with premium wax to create a protective barrier against oxidation and swirls. While it offers superior shine and water-beading properties, users must be diligent about applying the product only in shaded, cool conditions and avoiding non-gloss surfaces like matte paint or glass.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Can I use this on a glass windshield?
No, this product is designed specifically for paintwork. Using it on glass can result in smearing and reduced visibility.
Do I need to polish the car before applying?
While not strictly required, the surface must be clean and free of contaminants for the wax to bond correctly.
How long does the protection last?
Durability varies based on environmental exposure and maintenance, but it offers a significantly longer lifespan than standard carnauba waxes.
Can I apply this in direct sunlight?
No. Heat will cause the product to flash off too quickly, making it difficult to buff and potentially leaving residue.
Is this safe for matte paint?
No, this product is formulated for gloss paintwork and may alter the appearance of matte or satin finishes.
How long should I wait before driving after application?
While you can drive immediately, it is best to allow at least 2 hours of curing time in a dry area to ensure full bonding.
Troubleshooting
Streaking or cloudy patches appearing after buffing
You likely used too much product. Use a clean, damp microfiber cloth to remove excess, then buff again with a dry towel.
Product is drying too fast and leaving marks
Ensure the panel is cool and you are working in the shade. Work in smaller sections if the ambient temperature is high.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Significantly higher durability compared to traditional car waxes
- Excellent hydrophobic properties for better water repellency
- Simple application process suitable for beginners
- Reduces the risk of swirl marks during maintenance
Cons
- Not suitable for use on windshields or glass

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, keep your application area out of direct sunlight and ensure the bodywork is cool to the touch. You will need two high-quality microfiber towels: one for the initial application and one for the final buff. Compatibility is limited to standard glossy automotive paint; avoid applying this product to matte paint, satin wraps, or windows, as the hydrophobic properties can cause visibility issues on glass. For ongoing care, maintain the finish by washing with a pH-neutral car shampoo, which will preserve the integrity of the ceramic-wax layer.
