Griot's products...

I was looking at the Spray Wax (as an alternative to Aquawax...it is a little cheaper), the Undercarriage Spray, and the leather rejuvinator.



Any input on these products? Are they any good?
 
spray wax is nice but never used aquawax so i can't compare the two. undercarriage spray i like use in my wheel wells about once a month or so. haven't used any of the leather products. based on my experience with griot's their leather stuff would be nice.

IMO the AW is worth every penny they ask for, i love this product. definitely one of my top ten...
 
  • The Undercarriage Spray is one of the best in its class
  • I have the regular leather treatment product, it's very good. The stuff you mention is HD and likely used less often
  • Don't know about the Spray Wax, I've got the Duragloss and Optimum products
  • Their wheel cleaner and car wash are among the best
  • They sell some really fine tools, too :) ...be careful, it get's $$$$ fast !
 
The Leather Rejuvenator can *really* work miracles on dried out leather. Worked for me when nothing else I tried would. Don't know how well it'll work for somebody else on different leather though...there are a lot of variables so YMMV truly applies.





I'd be a little careful with the Undercarriage Spray. It seems to be *extremely* silicone-rich, and while *I* am not overly concerned about that, it can make for issues in some situations.



It'll make your garage floor/driveway *VERY* slippery, especially when wet. As in, "be careful!" slippery.



It's a PIA to clean off of stuff too...from the medium you apply it with (I wouldn't just spray it) to your hands. It's simply very messy, slimy stuff. But no, that doesn't mean it'll attract dust/etc., at least not all that much.



BUT don't get it on surfaces where you don't want it. Don't let it get on your paint (e.g., mist from spraying it). No, it won't just wipe off cleanly with a little QD ;)



But yeah..for what it is, and what it's made for, it's good stuff. Has what I consider a neat, if industrial, smell.

Agreed, apply the UC Spray outside, not in the garage.



Actually, I use it *in the garage* as any mess is easier to clean off my garage floor than off my driveway (gee, guess how I know :o ) and there's less chance of wind/air-born stuff/etc. causing issues.



I suppose it's really just a case of everybody having to consider *their* situation and doing what's right for *them*.
 
I find it drips down for a few hours after application. That was the reason for my comment and the rain will ultimately wash it away on the driveway.

Ah, OK...I see.. everybody's gonna have different reasons for doing it their way :D
 
I've tried a half dozen of their products. I was not impressed with

any of it. My last one was the water squeegee. That was the biggest pos

ever. An once you order from them, you get a catalog in the mail

like every few weeks. I finally called them today and said take me off your

mailing list.
