Full Description

Element Hybrid Wax is a delectable combination of natural waxes complemented by synthetic additives to provide a durable, drop-dead gorgeous gloss.

Element Hybrid Wax will provide a show wax finish with the added benefit of three months + durability, resistance to detergents and fantastic hydrophobic properties thanks to the synthetic additives in the wax blend. This truly is a hybrid wax, the best of both worlds in terms of finish and durability.

The blend contains natural waxes such as prime yellow T1 Carnauba, the purest grade available, along with synthetic additives that provide rub resistance and filling properties. This generates a 'Hybrid' wax, a combination of both.

This wax has been through an extensive research and development programme spanning almost two years. Duel first sampled it to its customers in November 2020 and kept developing it until it was fully happy with the final product. Testing has fruited results in excess of 6 months of durability, so why does Duel claim 3-4 months? Duel says it always understates its durability claims, to allow for any variables that may occur such as weather & driving conditions, maintenance processes etc. The aim is to beat expectations, not just meet them.

Why Should You Buy Element Hybrid Wax?

  • Incredible rich gloss finish
  • Durable paint protection
  • Durability in excess of 3-4 months
  • Easy to apply
  • One tin is enough to wax 10 + cars

Expert Notes

Element Hybrid Wax is Duel Autocare's hybrid paste wax, combining prime yellow T1 carnauba with synthetic additives for a deep carnauba gloss and hydrophobic water shedding finish, made in Great Britain. Duel Autocare rates durability at 3 to 4 months or more, with one 100ml tin covering 10 or more cars, so it suits both show finishing and everyday maintenance on a daily driver. Apply thinly with a foam applicator disc, working one panel at a time, then buff off with a soft microfibre cloth once it removes cleanly. It pairs well with a pH neutral shampoo and a dedicated buffing cloth to protect the finish. Avoid applying in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, and leave 2 to 3 hours between additional coats.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Exterior paintwork
  • All paint colours
  • Clean, contamination free panels
  • Show and daily driven cars
  • Bonnets and roofs
  • Bodywork panels

Caution: Do not apply in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, and always test that the wax removes cleanly before buffing a full panel.
