[@PanTheOrganizer]

Hey man I wanted to thank you for your review. You did a thorough job with the prep and the results speak for themselves! I was just as excited as you were when you were talking about gloss and slickness which will also continue to get better as the coating reaches its full cure. And those hydrophobic properties! I still laugh and smile every time I look at the water behaviour. Water just doesn’t want to stick to the surface. :) For the application, I think you did well in readjusting. When trying a new coating for the first time, we get a feel for flashing times and levelling, and readjust based on conditions. It’s best to follow the instructions and wait the 1-2 minutes even if you see rainbowing before. The coating is very forgiving and will still be easy to level and buff. And for the applicator that is supplied in the box, you are right, it does have a saver liner in it to prevent wasting product. I recommend people try that applicator first. Overall great job man, I’m super happy you enjoyed it and am looking forward to future updates! I wish you great success with your KZbin channel!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thanks Pan! Good call out, every new product has a learning curve. Once I adjusted, the flash time it was no issue based on my conditions. It's so forgiving I even went longer then 2 min and it was still fine. No issue with high spots. Removal was a breeze. Everyone should be able to apply this coating safely and effectively. Also, it keeps getting slicker and glossier....I keep going in the garage to look at it. Looking forward to posting an update on the first wash. And yes....it's recommended to use the supplied applicator! I'm just stubborn lol.

[@1stfrompuertorico568]

Pan, definitely you need to update that picture and having it smiling. It looks like a passport photo instead of an inviting and pleasing use of the product 👍🏼😁

[@FineDetailingAZ]

yes Humberto! We need to see that classic Pan smile!

[@1stfrompuertorico568]

@FineDetailingAZ That's right!. Even it made you smile, so it definitely is legit, at least on that experience. Now, let's see how it really does in terms of durability in the real world, which obviously will vary per environment

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Yes! I'll be providing updates as we go.

[@Teleman01]

I just got a great deal on this coating because of Thanksgiving deals. I'll be trying it out on my metallic green Jeep Cherokee soon. I bought his because I trust him as well. He just seems so knowledgeable. Between him and Ivan I had to decide which one to get. Plus this will be my first ceramic coating I have ever applied. Thanks for the video!.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@Teleman01 so happy to hear it! It’s a super user friendly coating you’ll do great. It rainbows quick but give it the 1-2 min at least before leveling. Enjoy!

[@alanhefter4659]

So I applied this today for the first time. In my garage on my new 2024 Ford Explorer XLT. Washed, clayed machine polish etc etc. In Phoenix today. In my garage no humidity 75 degrees. My experience was good. I can tell you that when it rainbows it does not mean it's ready to level. I used the same method today as I do when using my usual go to ceramic. I take my leveling towel and wipe a test spot and if it smears I wait. I also use a stop watch to keep track. Today the sweet spot was about 2.5 minutes. I also left it on longer just to see if it was difficult to remove and it wasn't. Actually removed easily. I used about 30 percent of the bottle but I also like to apply coatings heavy. As far as slickness and Shine it seems to be on par with what I usually use. Shine is so subjective so it's hard to say. All in all the experience was good. Going forward I'll see how it holds up. I would buy it again. Is it the best of the best? Not sure but the user experience was good.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Excellent assessment. After my video, Pan updated the website to say you can leave it up to 5 min even if it rainbows. He did say don't wipe before 1-2 min. after my first application I corrected and it worked out well. Is it the best? Who knows but it competes with the big boys sure.

[@sheepstardetail]

The algorithm brought me here, and I’m glad it did! You did a fantastic job with the video, explaining your reasoning, showing your initial impressions and not shying away from your potentially negative takes based on a well vetted resume of experience. I have no criticism, just remember that views and timing should never take a front seat to preparation and performance. Make sure your results are true and honest, and upload only when those are fulfilled. Liked, subscribed, and commented to boost your channel. PS: thanks for not using a white car.

Thanks for sharing! I just received the 8 year coating. Can't wait to put it on. I don't have the experience to know if it will be the best or not, but I got into detailing because of Pan and wanted to give it a chance. Can't fault a man for chasing his dream and I hope his product line does well

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Love it! You’ll be fine, super easy to install!

[@cyclechris6591]

I must have watched this 20 times. I’m jealous on one hand but content with my c6 hydrolite. My turbo mazda has the 46v soul red crystal paint and like you, I spent 3 days on the correction and touch up. It’s stunning in full sun but the fun is the occasional rain. I can tell the wind direction in the way the water sheds off at 30 mph. Your beemer came out stunning also. I was ready to choke myself if I saw one more coating demo on a white car that you can’t see on video. So thanks so much. It’s quite possible Pans 8 yr is the best. It certainly is priced well.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thanks for your support! C6 hydrolite is an awesome coating!

[@Teakdust]

My order for the 8 Year Ceramic was delivered yesterday. Thanks for doing this video. It gives me a good idea of what to expect when I apply it later this week.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thanks for watching, enjoy it!

[@Teakdust]

​@@FineDetailingAZ I just finished polishing my 2023 Honda Passport in Lunar Silver with DIY's Gold Standard Polish using their 5" yellow pad and then prep washing with Pan's prep spray. I had the same experience as you with wait times with the 8 Year Coating. Rainbowing was almost immediate. I waited for up to three or four minute and found that it didn't really make any difference in leveling. I standardized on a two minute flash time and the results were fantastic. I can't stop running my hand over the finish and admiring the slickness. The gloss is great, and seems to be getting better as it cures, but it makes it obvious that I could have polished out a bit more of the orange peel in the factory clear coat. I'd read that Hondas can have soft paint, so I tried to err on the side of caution. I couldn't be happier with the results!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Nice! Yeah 2 minutes max seems to be the trick. Orange peel typically can't be removed without wet sanding and that's a lot of work! Agreed on the slickness it keeps getting better.

[@alanmorelli1426]

Nice review Ryan. I just coated our friend's dark gray Toyota Avalon after thoroughly prepping the paint and the results were remarkable. Very much appreciated your "talk as you go" approach as I had exactly the same experience. It was about 68 degrees and sunny, similar to your conditions. Although I've only used about six different coatings, this one was definitely syrupy. At first, I thought something was in the nozzle. Took a bit of adjusting to fine tune the amount to add when replenishing the pad. I carefully watched the bottle to monitor the amount of coating I was using, and I also believe I initially added more than necessary. Wipe off, as you experienced, was exactly the same. Felt like it was being pushed around at first. Occasionally I would see just the faintest haze left over, but a third towel picked it right up. Once I got around to the starting panels, I noticed the slickness was even more noticeable. Overall, very pleased with the results and ease of use, given the quality of the ingredients.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thank you for watching! Always a learning curve with any new product! Glad you're happy with the results, so am I!

[@michaelbarillaro1661]

Great unbiased review brother. I don’t get all the hate for Pan. If I had my own product line and believed in it I’d say the same shit 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@FineDetailingAZ]

[@SLYDIT]

As someone whose never done a ceramic but wants a premium coating (love my fussocoat) the application experience is key. I like the fact that the clean does not flash in 5 seconds or get high spots easily. For me the fact that the flash window is wider is def a positive for most weekend car guys

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@SLYDIT agreed it’s very user friendly.

[@davidbias2509]

I just got my order of CLEAN yesterday. Can’t wait to get my brand new deep black pearl VW GTI coated in a couple days! BTW Pans tire dressing is looking great two days after applying. Thanks so much on the heads up on the thickness

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Of course best of luck! Love a GTI. I had mark 4 VR6 24v. Also in black, with all the toys on it.

[@1Nevergone]

I know some people had an issue with Pan saying it's the "best ceramic in the world," but whatever! You should have pride in the products you put out and why would anyone aim to be just ok or the status quo?? Obviously saying some is the "best" is going to be subjective, but we also know Pan isn't going to put his name on something that he feels is just as good as the rest. I personally haven't found a "holy crap!!!" difference in gloss from one coating to the next, I think we often convince ourselves one product is heads and tails above another, after all, the human eye can only pick up a certain level of gloss. Regardless, I'm definitely looking forward to trying this.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@1Nevergone totally agree gloss is hard to tell the difference by eye. I think you’ll love it. The slickness is crazy good and the water behavior. FD10 will save you 10%!

@@bruceolmsted3544 thanks for watching and commenting! I also trust him. That’s the beauty of this industry it doesn’t have to be a monopoly, you can use multiple brands and still have fun detailing. You should keep the ones you like, work his in your lineup and purge the rest. I always keep a revolving door or products, the fun in it.

[@NeelchandSewpersad]

I consider myself a supportor of Pan even though he probably never know I exist lol been watching and following his videos from he had a few thousand subs and always showed my clients his videos when they asked about products I've used on their vehicles, however its a sad disappointing thought that Pan said his products would be world wide but then only considers 5 counties to be the world. I've watched all his videos on clean now seeing other KZbinrs have the great opportunity to actually use them knowing that I won't be able to do the same or maybe in a few years to come at 5 or 6 times the actual price when or if it makes its way to my country. I'm sure it's because many overseas countries has the impression that my country only has poor people but doesn't realise there are other people who is doing quite okay and like me has the burning passion for detailing and cars. Anyway great video man looking forward to the other clean product reviews!!!

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thanks for your support! Hopefully they expand to more countries soon!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Hi! Always nice to see long time followers commenting. What country are you from? We are always looking to add more countries in the future, based on demand. The global distributors of my products are The House Of Rags, so you could write to them and let them know you’d like to see CLEAN By Pan products in your country. For now, we launched in USA and Canada. By the end of October, if all goes as planned, we should be in the UK, pretty much all of Europe, Australia, and Japan. That’s a lot of countries for a new brand. Thanks for your support!

[@Ts_Picks]

These coatings that say more than 1 to 3 years, I’m skeptical of. I’ve used the best in the world and that’s an insane amount of time. And anyone can say premature failure was most likely due to not installing correctly lol. I trust pans own products more than him reviewing others products because of the enormous amounts of money he charges companies to review their products. I just purchased a new one vehicle and trying to decide on what coating to go with now. Out of everything I used in the past, Undrdog outperformed everything for me. Deciding now between beadlock black, beadlock marine, Undrdog marine, Clean, crystal serum, or some of the professional companies I’m working authorized to install with .

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@Ts_Picks thanks for watching. I agree the year number is totally subjective to your environment and care. I’m sure he had to assign it a year as that’s market standard. I won’t keep this for 8 years so who knows if it will last. I wash weekly and the car is well maintained so I’m hoping we’ll get at least 3 years. So far it’s performing quite well. My favorite coating is Nasiol 272. The slickness and water behavior are awesome. That said, Clean is impressive so far. I’ve been eyeing shine supply as well but I have too many coatings to get through first.

[@bretbussey1806]

i had the same experience with the wipe off. Ended up waiting 4 minutes to wipe off and was still pushing product. Was scared to wait longer than that. Car has matte hood and ended up with a couple of streaks from what looks like the rag and i wiped hood down at least 5 times with a dry rag each time. Looks like coating kept getting pushed around and then dried after being wiped several times. The wrapped hood and trunk did fine as well as the regular paint. Really liked using it on the wheels. The thickness helped with that.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@bretbussey1806 for sure I found out that it’s just the nature of the product. Pan said just wipe at 2 minutes no matter what. Learning curve on a new product but I’m happy with the end result

[@Dias-v]

The good thing is now days we don’t need to get the most expensive coatings or to go and learn from them how to etc etc bc some brands liken diy or pan amd some other brands they have the technology to make them prime coatings and to work like the expensive ones and even better at the end what matters is the quality and how long can really stay on the car

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thank you! C6 is excellent as well. I'd put this toe to toe with C6. I'm a pro installer and I can say it stands at the top of the pack with the best of them.

[@rooboy99]

​@@FineDetailingAZbased on what? How long has it been on the car?

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Based on my application of hundreds of ceramic coatings. I was referring to application, gloss and hydrophobics. 95% of coatings on the market today haven't been out long enough to test long term real world durability so we as consumers are flying blind on most of them because companies are always changing formulas. I'm confident this coating won't fail like Cerakote did so I have to assume it will hold up long term like we assume C6 Hydrolite will. Hydrolite has only been on the market for a matter of months so we really don't know the durability of that one either. Hope that clarifies my comment!

Just applied the 8 year coating today on my wifes Cx-9 (Pearl white) It was my first time ever doing a ceramic coating. I was worried since i am in south florida and it is HUMID. The long working times definitely helped. I also never really noticed the flash and i waited 2-5 minutes, maybe because of the humidity? Anyways, I think i used too much when applying. I only had about 1/4 of the bottle left when i was finished. Cant wait to see how it performs.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thanks for watching! I think you may have used too much. I had 3/4 left after one car. For the next time, just use enough to prime the applicator then 2-3 drops for each new section. Only need to apply when you see you aren't putting down product any longer. Less is usually more. A big feat none the less for your first coating. I'm sure it will be great.

Follow up to my previous post.

It's pretty crazy slick for sure.

The end result to me is that it lasts. Many a coating goes on well. If you did not mention the brand, I do not see how it is much different in beading/sheeting, They all look good.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@angore3rd thanks for watching. At the end of the day it’s still a ceramic coating. Highlighting the application, ease of use and water behavior is important to many people. Coatings only last as long as they are maintained so I will provide updates as we progress.

I must say, coming from the first 3rd party review I’ve seen of this coating.. I was quite disappointed with the performance/application considering the claims Pan was drilling into his videos again and again. Thanks for this video though! I appreciate your content and will continue to tune in as I respect your unbiased input.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Thanks man, appreciate the support. To be clear I think there was just a learning curve with the application, it's thicker then anything I've used and so it just felt different on level and removal. Came off super easy and I'd put the hydrophobics up against anything else out there. I'll get a video up of the first wash outside so hopefully we can see the water behavior a little better.

@@justlovethisgame3537 thanks for watching. What were you disappointed with? I hope people just understand it’s a ceramic coating. I’m not sure what everyone was expecting!

@@BamaJoeBob I’m glad you asked. Look, I think we all knew Pans coatings would be good.. it’s not all that hard nowadays especially if you have connections in the industry with people that have had past success. But when you come out the gates making these outlandish claims like he always talks about others doing that it’s the best coating in the world, ever, PERIOD. And that it’s also the easiest coating to apply in the world. And it has the best hydrophobics in the world. Not a single one of those claims looked to be true in this review.

Not sure if it was my bottle but when I used Gyeon Pure EVO (my first ever coating), it was very similar in that it did not pour out of the bottle. It also rainbowed very quick. They say with Pure EVO, they put as much solids in it as possible so maybe it is similar, but Pure is not that slick

Great to see the application process and your experimentation with it. It looks to be VERY user friendly, and competitively priced. I've yet to try a ceramic coating, being a ceramic spray guy to-date but will try a coating next Spring. I'll be really interested to see how this fairs in actual use on the road. I think anything can look great at the first application. My ceramic spray does for sure but give it a week of wet weather and the lower halves of the doors are fading fast. However, a quick pre--rinse and 'wash and wax' maintainer and it's good to go again. Does a ceramic coating help at all with reducing marring? That's my problem with my soft Toyota paint. I've heard ceramic coatings are not of benefit for that.

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Hey Allen, thanks for watching. It is very easy to apply. We will certainly see how it holds and I'll give updates as we progress. Ceramic sprays aren't as durable as coatings so I think if you try a coating you will be pleasantly surprised. If they clog you can simply unclog them with some acidic shampoo or water spot remover. Ceramic coatings don't really protect against scratching they provide a small sacrificial layer for your paint. If you want more protection I'd look into PPF but even then that's not impervious to scratching.

I released the videos out of order I have one doing the decon and one doing the polishing. I was honestly planning on using with Pan's polish to just polish or KcX M3. That should be all you need.

Application is standard just per your conditions. I had a learning curve the first panel I did then I figured it out. Also this is only one layer vs multiple like CSL/EXO. He says you can layer it but I went with one layer on everything. The center portion of the hood I did 2 just for testing.
