We Tested The Jay Lenos Garage Advanced Vehicle Car Care Kit on a 1000HP Nissan GTR
Ever the consummate “car guy”, Jay Leno has decided to venture into the car care product business. Branded under his Jay Leno’s Garage line and offering his personal touch where he felt improvements could be made over similar offerings, this car care kit contains sixteen ounce bottles of each of the four liquid products, along with three applicator accessories to ensure you’re able to use the products correctly.
The limited edition kit includes a bottle of Vehicle Wash, a pH-neutral premium super-concentrate to shampoo for your car’s paint gently. Making the wash stand out from competitors’ washes, this product is specially formulated to float dust and contaminants away from the paint, helping reduce swirls and scuffing. After this single step, our first GTR giveaway winner Del Franco’s GTR already looked stellar, but we didn’t stop there. Following the wash, we applied the Hand Wax, a protective carnauba wax cream designed to provide depth and clarity to your clear coat, and it certainly did just that on Del’s GTR. If you’ve seen Leno’s expansive collection, you know each car looks to have brand new, inches-deep paint. That’s possible thanks to this very product.
The kit also includes a bottle of Quick Detailer, which is for use between washes when you just want to hit the streets with a clean ride but don’t want to drag out the bucket and hose. Since we’d just washed our test car, we used this spray to clean the glass and plastic surfaces in the interior and also hit the wheels with it to provide them some extra love and attention. The quick detailer did a great job, spraying in a nice even mist and wiping off easily and quickly. This will be the bottle you finish off the quickest, as you will find yourself grabbing it to give your ride that just-washed look on your way to any cruise in or meet up.
Finally, there’s the Tire and Trim care, a water-based protectant for tires and rubber, vinyl and plastic trim. We took photos before applying it to the tires, but thankfully Jay made sure the tire and trim treatment ins’t too glossy, as many similar dressings are. There is also less “sling off” around the wheel wells after the first drive, which is another negative found in many other tire products. Each of the products has its own applicator that is included with the kit and each worked exactly as advertised, helping ensure the process went smoothly and the products were applied properly.
