Just doing some searching I ran across this, I am not saying any one is better than the other, just some info in case anyone was interested.
22PLE VX1 Pro Signature Glass Coat is a new state of the art paint protection product that showcases the latest advances in glass coating technology. If, like us, you always question new developments in the world of car care, then you're probably wondering how 22PLE VX1 Pro Signature Glass Coat differs to rival nanotechnology products, and what it offers that they don't? And maybe more importantly, how it justifies its high price tag? The answers to these questions all stem back to its unique alcohol-free formula, which lays down a thin film of silica that fully crystallizes as it cures. None of the other nanotechnology products we stock work in the same way; they lay down glass-like coatings that form strong molecular bonds, but they do not crystallize. It's easy to confirm this behaviour in real life. If you leave small samples of all of the nanotechnology products we stock open overnight, all will still be in liquid form the following day (minus varying degrees of evaporated solvent content), with the exception of 22PLE products, which will all have set hard in a fully crystallized state.
Now that we have confirmed how 22PLE VX1 Pro Signature Glass Coat differs to rival products, we can look at the benefits this brings. Firstly, because it contains no alcohol, it does not flash off upon contact, which makes it far easier to apply. Secondly, because it fully crystallizes, it forms a much harder and more durable coating than rival products. We've tested this by subjecting 22PLE VX1 Pro Signature Glass Coat and the closest rival products we stock to a brutal decontamination test, in which treated panels were: (i) washed at 60oC; (ii) soaked and wiped down with Autosmart Tardis; (iii) soaked and wiped down with Auto Finesse Iron Out; (iv) clayed with Auto Finesse Clay; (v) wiped down with neat ReAgent Isopropyl Alcohol, and; (vi) finally washed at 60oC again. In all cases, rival nanotechnology treatments were clearly stripped to a large extent (greatly diminished beading), but the panel treated with 22PLE VX1 Pro Signature Glass Coat was left beading as strongly as the day it was first applied.
Given that 22PLE VX1 Pro Signature Glass Coat is significantly different to rival nanotechnology products, and offers even greater durability, more scratch resistance and better protection against the elements, a key question remains; does it offer good value for money? This is a tough call, because at more than £40 per application (on an average-sized car) it is, by some considerable margin, the most expensive paint protection product we stock. Are you, as an enthusiast, able to justify this? Only you can decide; earlier adopters always pay more for the privilege of getting their hands on new technology first, but if you do bite the bullet then you will have the satisfaction of knowing your car is wearing a truly exceptional product. And for professional use? Well, in this guise it makes a lot of sense to us, because 22PLE VX1 Pro Signature Glass Coat really is a step ahead of the competition, and being able to much better preserve the amazing finishes we create makes it worth its weight in gold.
