All the C6 Ceramics are made in the USA and have the following components in their chemistry:
Polysilazane - chemical resistance, marring resistance
Silicon carbide - adds gloss and chemical resistance
Silicon dioxide - gloss, slickness
Silicon nitride - adds flexibility, resilience, and prevents fracturing
Refined detonated nano diamonds - prevents fracturing, adds water spot resistance
Chemical resistance: pH 2-13
1 hour curing time
After the application, wait 7 days before washing the car again
To ensure maximum performance and durability, use the C6 Ceramics Adhesion Promoter Polish (APP) before applying the ceramic coating.
Differences between Hydro and Hydro Lite coatings:
Hydro:
- lifetime coating
- high spots are tougher to deal with if you get some
Hydro Lite:
- 6 years durability
- contains less Refined Detonated Nano Diamonds
- easier to apply (high spots are easier to deal with if you get some)

[@steveclark2426]

I’m an authorized installer in eastern Ontario near Quebec border. I’m really impressed with how C6 hydro performs, I installed it last weekend on our personal car and have done approximately 400km in rain and dirt roads and it definitely keeps the dirt from sticking. This weekend will be the 7 day wash. Looking forward to seeing the water behaviour. Awesome products and love the informative videos that Pan and Yvan offer!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks Steve! And yes I also have to agree that it stays cleaner compared to other coatings, and the hydrophobics are insane!

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you

[@johnough4893]

I have to say that when you first showed the car, at the car dealers, I wasn't that impressed by the chalk colour. But now, after your decontamination wash and Ivan's ceramic coating, I've changed my mind. It looks fantastic with that gloss. And what water beading! I don't think I seen anything better. Thumbs up!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Yup, a new car is never new until it's fully and properly detailed. And yeah the end results were breathtaking and looked even better in person. The camera doesn't quite do it justice.

Great show guys. I loved the more in depth look at the DIY line of ceramics. I have the 3 year on one of my cars and the 5/3 stack on the other. Couldn't be happier with the results. I can't imagine how great the C6 line must be. I will have to wait for my next car to find out. Listen to Ivan on the water spot removal for wheels. My older car is 6 years old and I could never get the wheels back to their original look. The black always looked dirty. I sprayed on water spot remover waited about a minute, rinsed, repeated with agitation with a flag tip nylon brush before rinsing. The result was amazing brought the black right back. Pan, Yvan thank you both. I have learned so much from watching the both of you! Two great channels!

Hey Pan !! thank you for another great episode , especially when you have Yvan on the show. Question , if i already have diydetail ceramic coating 5 years and i applied it about 4 month ago can i put c6 on top of it ?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

No. You’d have to machine polish the old one off, then use the APP to prep the surface and then apply the new C6 Hydro Lite.

[@ZachPlymale]

Just submitted. This is awesome stuff. Need to try more DIY detail

Love both your channels. Very informative. Recently coated my Genesis with 3 yr Diy graphine coating. So far very happy. Also just recoated after 3 yrs my wife’s Camry. Used Cerakote. Looks good now. She’s happy. Time will tell. The question is, I wash my car every week. Living in AZ very lil rain more of a light dust. Using Yvans method of foaming the dry car, rinsing, foam again and hand wash. Is this over kill or can I get away with foam and rinse or do you always had wash too? Thanks in advance. Keep up the good work. Thx. Griz

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I always follow up with a contact wash. It’s the only way to ensure 100% clean results.

[@diydetailofficial]

A contact wash is always best, have you considered DIY Detail Rinse Less Wash

[@Slava-du8dw]

cool informative video from two detailing gurus👍 I want to add that once I tried a decon sponge together with koch chemie tar&bug removal and the chemistry melted the synthetic clay on my sponge and left a black stain resistant to wiping on a white car, it's good that with the same chemistry and microfiber, this stain came off easily.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

With synthetic decontamination towels, sponges and mitts, it's important to use products that are free of solvents. So if your bug & tar remover contained solvents, it would damage the synthetic clay material.

[@Teleman01]

I've been going back-and-forth to whether I wanted to put a ceramic coating on my new car. There's no question I am at this point. And I'm definitely deciding with the C6. I do wish I could buy the gloss version. But Im no professional so I will stick with the other one. But they look to be very very good..

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you

[@tedk572]

[@oliver.79]

Thank you! Very helpful! I was a bit lost on the C6 and DIY product line up. Still not clear what is better, the Hydro Lite or the Stack. And which stack, the 5-3 or the 8-3. Thank you!!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Hydro Lite is better than the stack. All C6 coatings stand above the DIY Detail coatings.

[@diydetailofficial]

DIY Detail coatings are industry leaders and will go head to head with any coating in the industry. C6 Ceramics is the future of coatings, today.

Pan in a previous video you mentioned that Kamikaze had incredible luster. I'm looking for a product with the most luster. Which has the most luster kamikaze or C6 hydro

[@PanTheOrganizer]

If you are looking for a coating you can apply yourself, then C6 Hydro Lite for sure. If you want to have your car professionally coated, C6 Diamond Gloss would be the one.

[@MyGuyKirby]

Appreciate the talk on DIY ceramics and how they compare, c6 hydro lite still price over what most consumers will afford

[@diydetailofficial]

Thank you.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

It's a high end coating, for those with a bigger budget for sure. But the DIY Detail line has the 3-5-8 year coatings at more reasonable prices for those who are on a tighter budget but still want a high quality coating. We explained the differences between all the coatings in the video.

[@Rob12345]

❤that C6 would make my black X5MC look great

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Absolutely!!

[@diydetailofficial]

Agreed

[@JD-sc1gt]

Thank you for the excellent video. I am getting ready to apply the 8 year and 3 year “stack” on my car. My questions are: 1) After applying the APP, what is the window of time I have before applying the stack? 2) What is the maximum amount of time that you can wait before applying the stack after applying the APP? Thank you!

[@diydetailofficial]

After the C6 Ceramics Adhesion Promoter Polish (APP) residue is removed you can start coating immediately or wait up to 48 hours if you’re in a dust free environment. Remember between the 2 stack components, you need to wait a minimum of 2 hours and a maximum of 8 hours.

[@PaulNicolau]

Hi Pan, What product would you recommend for high gloss shine and water beading other than ceramic coating? I currently use Meguiar's G200416 Hybrid Ceramic Liquid Wax. It has high gloss but I do not know if the beading properties are good or not. Thank you in advance, Paul

[@diydetailofficial]

DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss does a great job. That said as you can see in Pan’s videos, coatings are easy to apply.

[@pipsohio]

I’ve got 2 personal vehicles needing a coating prior to a parade. I’ll be applying to become an installer, and hopefully get involved before this parade. Currently installing another brand and looking for something I can add to my lineup for lifetime kind of folks.

[@MrYandain]

Hello, Pan! Love your videos and your passion for detailing. I’m going to put the C6 on my car, so my question is how would you recommend prepping my car for the coating. I put on Chemical Guys HydroSlick last fall on my well maintained (washed weekly) car. When putting on the C6 I’ll follow Yvan application process, so I’m looking for your recommendation on removing old coating and prep. Thank you much!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

The only way to ensure 100% removal of any protection is by machine polishing. So you’ll have to decon wash, iron remover, clay, machine polish, paint prep spray, APP polish, then apply the C6 Hydro Lite coating.

[@MrYandain]

Perfect thank you. Do you have a polish you recommend?

Ceramic Coating to protect, rinseless to wash. The knowledge comes from doing R&D for 40 years.

[@jaapsmak4994]

hello Pan, I wonder if the cerakote ceramic paint coat has now been improved after the last disillusionment. I also want to know whether I can simply apply cerakote outside on the street in the Netherlands. what is your advice?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Cerakote released the new version earlier this month. It's now in a clear/frosted bottle, to separate it from the original black bottle. They have more precise instructions now for the application as well, all included in the package. Among other things, application must be done at a temperature of at least 65F (18.5 degrees Celsius). So as long as you are near 20C temperature it's fine. You can apply it outside, but make sure you don't work in direct sunlight. Always work in the shade, on a cool surface.

[@lucaspiroddi7343]

Pan, can i wash my polishing pads the same way you recommend washing microfiber towels?

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes

[@teamscoobydoo]

very educational. How does this compare to roar coatings?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

It’s still to early to draw conclusions, but so far, the facts I have are: 1) C6 is easier to apply as it’s a one layer system (Roar was a 2-part system) 2) Hydrophobics are better with C6 Hydro 3) Gloss and slickness are very close (both are top top tier) 4) C6 Hydro is less expensive than Roar For durability in real world, time will tell.

[@diydetailofficial]

Very different technology

[@danielmartin5122]

Hi could you use app with another coating

[@diydetailofficial]

Yes

[@bimmerfan9484]

Hi Pan, I’m a weekend detailer doing details merely as a hobby. I was wondering if I could use hydro lite in this scenario: Decon wash APP one pass (paint is mildly swirled) Then use hydro lite Now my goal is to achieve 75-80% defect removal and high gloss etc. how achievable is this? And what would be the durability of the product? Would it be affected in any way? Also I sometimes use a strong ph cleaner. How long will it take for it to degrade the coating? And also what can I use to revive the coating? Your response is much appreciated Thanks

[@diydetailofficial]

This will work, but ideally a quick pass with DIY Detail Gold Standard Polish first will give you even better results.

I see the term diamond used from other companies as well like Carpro's DQuartz. The $300 price tag of Hydro Lite makes me assume that this is the "first" on the market tax that we are paying for. How does the nano diamond in Hydro Lite stack up against the diamonds in other ceramic coatings?

[@diydetailofficial]

Very different technology, and there is no tax, it’s the cost of the components. Others use straight Detonation Nano Diamonds or Diamond Nano tubes. Our reactive blending and Refined Detonated Nano Diamonds set us apart.

Hi Pan, I just became an approved C6 installer. A message for Yvan the guy who did my interview didn't want to really sell me C6 Hydro because I don't charge $2,500.00 for a ceramic coating. I am in Florida in a very populated area of senior citizens on a fixed income. There are some snowbirds with better incomes yes but not overwhelming. I try to be fair and make everyone happy. I feel if a client can afford only so much for a coating but they really take care of their car. Why not give them a coating they can enjoy for life, especially if the are a loyal customer for me. My question for Pan is. For a regular customer who has an average vehicle heard about C6 Hydro and wanted it on his car, what would you charge? I doubt it would be the forgo mentioned price.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I never discuss prices on KZbin as it's pointless to do so. The same service has a different price for many factors, including most importantly location. A coating job in Montreal won't cost the same in Florida, vs New York or Paris for example. You have to adjust according to your area and competition. It's a discussion you need to have with C6, not with anyone else. Certainly 2500$ is still inexpensive for the quality of coating and durability this provides. This is not your typical 50$ coating bottle with a 1000$ coating job. Perhaps your customer base isn't used to that level of service? Hard to say, I don't know you, your business or the area you work in. But it's not my place to tell people what they should be charging or not. I hope you understand.

[@diydetailofficial]

Charles, thank you for your concern. C6 Ceramics isn’t for every customer. $2500 is industry average for top level coatings. There are many customers, and some are happy to pay for the performance and value C6 Ceramics brings to them.

[@havingtoomuchfun4806]

Dude, if a customs wants a Ferrari, they don’t shop at a Ford dealer. If you’re really a c6 installer, then market it to people who want and can afford the best. If you’re not a good enough business owner to have customers that are suited to high end products, don’t blame anyone else.

[@C6ceramics]

Mr Mitchel, thank you for your concern. We understand your frustration that we did not accept you as a C6 Ceramics installer. Not every detailer has the entrepreneurial skills to perform to the level we need. There is a demand for high quality detailers and products in Florida. In the Tampa bay Sarasota area where your located, there is good consumer demand for C6 Ceramics . There is a long list of customers in Florida that are looking for quality coatings such as C6 Ceramics and willing to pay for the quality service that is offered by authorized C6 Ceramics installers.

Not sure if this was addressed earlier, but what are the possibilities of installing C6 on a previously coated vehicle that is underperforming. Will APP work in that scenario?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Nope. You would have to machine polish the old coating off, using a traditional compound/polish, then IPA wipe, then use APP, and then apply the C6 coating.

[@diydetailofficial]

Pan is correct

Interesting, using alot of similar ingredients as Diamond Protech which is an amazing coating so lets try and see if this is a good or bad copy.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

It has absolutely nothing to do with Diamond Protech coatings though. Not all coatings are created equal. ;)

[@diydetailofficial]

Very different technology, I was involved in the early development of the NGNT coatings. They use diamond nano tubes.

[@richardkelly1367]

Pan - just bought a new car (Mini Cooper). May I ask your thoughts on PPF protection for a new car?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I am just not a fan of the look or feel or PPF. Plus, as I get a brand new car every three years, and do low yearly mileage, scratches and stone chips are of no concern to me. My cars are always pristine when I bring them back to the dealership. But for people who keep their cars for many years, and want the ultimate scratch and rock chip protection, PPF is the only solution. I would still recommend a ceramic coating on top of the PPF, for the best of both worlds.

[@richardkelly1367]

@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you, Pan - much appreciated. I tend to keep my cars longer, but who knows? Also I've found PPF can look worse than paint when hit by a rock, and chips are more easily hidden on paint than PPF. Thanks for your thoughts. Congratulations on the new car - it's beautiful.

[@jimmyward2848]

Hi Yvan, quick question. Do I need the App if I use your 5yr coating?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

No APP isn’t needed in that case. But still a great option if you can.

No need but it will give you better gloss and depth.

@@diydetailofficialThank you! And I should still use the same surface prep and it should still last as long?

[@FineDetailingAZ]

Trying to decide which one to try. Can you give an estimate in % how different each would be? For example: Diamond coating produces 10% more gloss and Hydro produces 10% more hydrophobic as an example? The hydro looks amazing so how much more gloss do you get with diamond and how much hydrophobic do you lose?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I haven't seen Diamond Gloss in person, so impossible for me to answer. But according to Yvan, we're talking differences that most people would likely never notice in terms of gloss, as both Hydro and Diamond Gloss are super glossy to begin with. And perhaps you'd see a small difference on a darker colored car. But again, you'd likely need a trained eye to spot the difference. I wouldn't overthink the moment on which one to get. But regardless, you can't try them as a consumer. They are only available through certified installers. The only one DIYers can buy is the Hydro Lite.

[@diydetailofficial]

10-20% is a good estimate

[@FineDetailingAZ]

@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks Pan! I'm a professional detailer....we have a sickness as you know 😄. I plan to test this on my car before selling it to my customers so maybe I'll try one of each! I just applied to be become an installer so we shall see!

Glossier, and more importantly longer lasting. Modesta was good when it came out, unfortunately the technology isn’t very relevant.
