A two-part hand kit: Detox strips old wax and road film, then Ceramic Wax Pro lays down a Teflon-infused wax-resin layer. Ethos claims a year or more of protection per coat and says the slick finish sheds water, dirt and bird droppings. It is a wipe-on, wipe-off job with no machine, aimed at owners who want ceramic-style protection without a full coating process. Against true ceramic coatings it is easier and safer to apply but shorter-lived; against ordinary waxes it lasts far longer and costs more per bottle.

Owners of the Ceramic Wax Pro line praise the gloss and how easily dirt and water come off after application. Detox gets credit for stripping old wax and leaving glass streak-free. The main complaints are that the protection does not last as long as advertised and that the wax can be hard to remove if it sets.
This kit pairs Ceramic Wax Pro, a wax-style paint sealant, with Detox, a surface prep cleaner. Ceramic Wax Pro is a thick ceramic resin formula infused with Teflon. It hardens into a slick, non-stick layer that protects paint from the elements, oxidation and UV rays, and sheds water, snow and debris. The layer also repels bird droppings, dirt, tree sap, road debris, water spots and light abrasion. It can be used on paint, chrome, trim, wheels and headlights.
Detox is a 2-part, color-shifting blue-green formula that removes grease, waxes, oils, residues and contaminants. It strips old wax and sealant so the new protection can bond directly to the finish. It can be used before applying a ceramic spray, ceramic coating, wax or sealant. Detox also works as a streak-free glass cleaner.
Both products are applied by hand, with no machine, water or special tools. For Ceramic Wax Pro, wipe on a smooth, thin, even layer panel by panel. When the layer turns slightly hazy, it has cured and can be wiped clean. Ceramic Wax Pro is rated to last 12 months or more per application, and in lab tests it protected a test car for up to 18 months.
