The Truth About QUIVR by IMJOSHV
QUIVR by IMJOSHV has made a lot of noise lately. But is the hype real? Let’s take a closer look—and I’ll share what many detailers are now realizing about these products (and what better options are out there).
What Is QUIVR?
QUIVR is a new detailing brand launched by YouTuber IMJOSHV.
The current product lineup includes:
- QUIVR Foam Cannon
- Rogue Soap
- Hot Coat Ceramic Detail Spray
It’s marketed heavily through IMJOSHV’s YouTube channel and social following.
Where the Hype Doesn’t Match Reality
Here’s what I (and many detailers) are seeing as feedback rolls in:
- QUIVR Foam Cannon → standard rebranded foam cannon → similar to many $30 options on Amazon.
- Rogue Soap → no clear differentiation → high foaming but questionable protection claims.
- Hot Coat Ceramic Detail Spray → heavy solvent smell → questionable durability based on early real-world tests.
In other words → this is classic influencer brand packaging → not true chemical innovation.
Why Many Are Switching to Proven Products
Here’s what pros and serious DIYers look for:
- Real durability → not marketing hype.
- Proven performance in real-world use.
- Transparent product development → not just repackaging existing formulas.
That’s why so many are choosing products like:
- Tough As Shell → true long-term ceramic protection → 6–12 months durability → not 2–3 week "quick gloss" spray.
- The Super Soaper → pro-grade foam soap → safe for coatings → tested and trusted.
When you compare head to head → the difference in protection, performance, and transparency is clear.
My Take on QUIVR
I’m all for new brands entering the space → competition is good.
But detailers and buyers deserve to know what they’re getting:
- QUIVR looks like a private label influencer brand.
- Performance is **not matching the hype** based on early feedback.
- Price per use is higher than proven, pro-grade products.
If you want to support an influencer brand → great. But if you want real ceramic protection and performance → go with products built from the ground up by pros, with real chemistry behind them.
The Bottom Line → Proven > Packaged Hype
Here’s my simple recommendation:
- If you want real ceramic spray protection → use Tough As Shell.
- If you want real pro-grade foam soap → use The Super Soaper.
- Skip the hype and influencer packaging → trust products built by real detailers for real results.
