The Truth About AMMO NYC Products – Professional Insight vs YouTube Hype
AMMO NYC looks impressive on YouTube. But do the products actually work in the real world? Here's what professional detailers really think.
There’s no denying Larry from AMMO NYC is a master of video production. His detailing content is inspiring, educational, and entertaining. But when it comes to his product line, there’s a growing debate in the detailing world:
Are AMMO products worth it? Or are they more sizzle than substance?
We spent time testing the most popular AMMO products in real-world conditions—and comparing them to newer, more versatile solutions designed for modern detailers and DIYers alike. Here’s what we found.
Where AMMO NYC Gets It Right
- Strong brand trust and community support
- Visually clean and consistent product line
- Good formulations for dedicated users
If you have the time, budget, and workflow to match AMMO’s multi-product system—it works. But for most users, the process is too complicated, too expensive, and too slow.
Where AMMO Falls Short
- Overly niche products that only do one thing
- Higher price per ounce compared to competitors
- Steep learning curve for coatings, cleaners, and specialty items
Many of these products look cool in a cinematic video—but they aren’t optimized for efficiency, speed, or practicality for the average user or professional detailer on a schedule.
Smarter Alternatives That Work Better
If you’re looking for real-world performance with less complication, here are better options for the top AMMO NYC categories:
- Foam Soap: The Super Soaper — Thick foam, great cleaning, coating safe
- Ceramic Coating: Tough As Shell — Easy spray-on ceramic with pro-level protection
- Interior Cleaning: Complete Cabin Cleaner — One-step cleaner for every interior surface
- Tire & Trim Dressing: All Dressed Up — Clean matte finish with zero sling
