The question has to be asked......how does this compare in longevity to the hybrid ceramic coating and the new professional coating

[Buddy]

I am curious how the new products coming out work with existing products? The Ultimate line all worked togeather, as did the ceramic line, even throwing in the hybrid paint coating. So what wirks which what line of all the new products?
Being ceramic, I would assume this particular product would go well with the ceramic line and not as much with the Ultimate line?

Definitely longer lasting and more durable than the Hybrid Ceramic Waxes but not quite as durable as the new M888 Coating.

Tough to answer entirely without more specifics and direct comparisons. That being said this is a true coating so it would be used as your primary protection. With that in mind, the Hybrid Ceramic line would be a great way to maintain protection and water beading once applied.

If you had a base of Hybrid Paint Coating on, could this go on top to help maintain it (along with the hybrid ceramic detailer and/or M799) and try to extend the useful life?

No, ideally the paint should have no pre-existing protection on prior to applying Ultimate Ceramic Coating.

What about polishing oils left behind, like Ultimate Polish?

Looks great, how does this compare for durability to the outgoing Hybrid Paint Coating? What are the cure times, and are you able to layer this like you could the Hybrid Paint Coating after 1 hour? Thank you.

This uses the "Ultimate" phrase in the name. I don't remember that being mixed with other hybrid or ceramic products in your line ups before.
Is there anything f\rom that mighty fine Ultimate sealant product line that is mixed into this product?
Or is it the good user experience from the Ultimate line that is being emulated by this new product?

Ultimate Ceramic Coating works best on bare paint, so yes, any additional surface prep steps will improve user experience and longevity.

Similar durability to outgoing Hybrid Paint Coating however this is a true ceramic coating. Regarding layering, yes, if you would like, you can apply an additional coat/layer as long as is within the same day.

Believe they put this within our Ultimate Line as it is a true ceramic coating and not a hybrid product, like our Hybrid Ceramic Liquid Wax, etc.

Given the new 2024 ceramic products, are any of the current spray products (like G190526 Hybrid Ceramic Spray Wax) being discontinued?

I've gone through several protection product generations with Meguiar's. First it was M16, then NxT Tech Wax, M21, M26, Ultimate Wax and lately M27 (about 6 months of solid paint protection) and Hybrid Paint Coating ( about 12 months of paint protection). This new Ultimate Paint Coating sounds like the way to go. I always clay and use pre-wax cleaner/ polish before a coating application.
