Technicians Choice Ceramic Detail Spray 1 Gallon — Gloss-Boosting, Hydrophobic Finish for Paint, Glass & Trim

Whether you finish a full detail or need a fast mid-week uplift, Technicians Choice TEC582 gives paint, glass, trim, chrome, and wheels a noticeably slick, water-repellent layer without heavy buffing or specialized tools. Formulated for ease of use, this 1-gallon size is sized for shops, mobile detailers, or car enthusiasts who want a professional-grade ceramic boost they can apply by hand.

How does TEC582 improve appearance and protection?

TEC582 deposits a thin ceramic-infused film that increases surface gloss and causes water to bead and sheet off. The result is a cleaner look, easier drying, and reduced water spotting after rain or washing.

• Produces deeper, reflective shine across paint and clearcoat
• Leaves a slick, low-friction surface that resists contaminants
• Creates hydrophobic behavior on glass and painted surfaces
• Helps repel light dust, road film, and waterborne residue

Which surfaces can I safely use TEC582 on?

TEC582 was designed for exterior use on automotive surfaces and is safe for paint, clearcoat, glass, plastic trim, chrome, and wheels. It’s versatile enough to treat multiple materials in one quick pass, making it practical for full-vehicle upkeep.

• Paint and clearcoats — enhances gloss without abrasives
• Glass — improves water beading for clearer visibility
• Plastic and rubber trim — restores a satin look without greasy residue
• Chrome and wheels — adds slip for easier cleaning

How do you apply TEC582 for best results?

Application is straightforward: spray a light mist onto the surface or a microfiber towel, spread evenly, then buff to a glossy finish with a clean towel. One microfiber towel is usually enough for wiping the product into the finish, making the process fast and efficient.

• Work in shaded, cool conditions for even coverage
• Spray directly or onto a towel to control product use
• Lightly wipe and then flip to a clean side to buff out streaks
• Reapply as needed to high-contact or heavily soiled areas

How often should I use it and what maintenance does it need?

Use TEC582 after washing or as a quick detail between full treatments to maintain gloss and hydrophobic properties. Frequency depends on driving conditions: monthly for heavily driven cars, and every 6–8 weeks for low-mileage vehicles keeps the finish refreshed.

• Ideal after a full wash and decontamination
• Can be used as a weekly or biweekly quick detail spray
• Reapply after heavy exposure to road salt or harsh contaminants
• Stored properly, the gallon lasts through multiple applications
