The Truth About The Detail Co.’s Chemicals — Are They Really New?
Are The Detail Co.’s chemicals really new? We looked behind the marketing. Here’s what The Detail Co. doesn’t tell you—and where to get products that truly perform.
Why This Post?
With all the hype around **The Detail Co.** and their chemical line, a lot of detailers are asking:
"Are these really new formulas—or just another rebrand?"
We took a hard look at what The Detail Co. is offering—and compared it directly to **Jimbo’s Detailing** products built through real chemist collaboration.
The Reality of Thor Blending
The Detail Co.’s chemicals are built through **Thor Blending**—a private label blending service used by multiple brands.
What this means:
- **Base formulas** are sourced from existing suppliers
- **Fragrance and color** are added to differentiate the product
- **Packaging** is customized to make it look like a unique product
These are NOT new, ground-up chemical formulas. They are **repackaged blends** being sold as premium products.
How This Affects Performance
When you use a product built on **common base formulas**, you get:
- **Inconsistent performance across different brands** using the same base
- Limited ability to **tune the product for professional-level workflows**
- Marketing-driven features (fragrance, color) prioritized over actual performance
How Jimbo’s Detailing Is Different
**Jimbo’s Detailing** products are developed through **true chemist collaboration**:
- Every formula built from scratch—not from an off-the-shelf base
- Products tuned and tested through real-world use by pro detailers
- Performance-first approach—no gimmicks or marketing fluff
That’s why products like:
- The Super Soaper → leading foam and wash performance
- Tough As Shell → real ceramic protection with proven durability
- Picture Perfect Polish → one step polish built for pro results
... consistently outperform "me too" rebranded products.
The Bottom Line
**The Detail Co.’s chemicals are not new technology.** They are private label blends wrapped in marketing hype.
If you want products that are built to perform in the real world—not just to look good in YouTube videos—**Jimbo’s Detailing** is the clear choice.
Our formulas are built from the ground up. Our results speak for themselves.
