I’ve applied AS IX twice and have been very pleased with it and with the support from Avalon King. I ordered AS IX Max this evening before watching this video. One important application detail is to wipe off or buff the finish as soon as it flashes (depending on temperature may be as soon as 1 minute). If you don’t buff it off quickly enough it is nearly impossible to remove the flashed product from the finish). I do much smaller areas before buffing than shown in the video. With AS IX I always apply 2 coats to ensure full coverage. The gloss is amazing.

How is the slickness? Me I don’t have any slickness at all. Gloss and hydrophobic are very good however.

[@javieracevedo4406]

@@benoitparadis6398 I applied AS IX two years ago and use the AS lite every other week after wash ( I wash my car at least once a week) and it's still super glossy and slick. If you put a plastic cup or bottle on my hood it will slide off. FYI my car is a daily driver and never seen the inside of my garage except when I applied AS. Looking forward to AS Max or GOAT, I'm still haven't decided which to use. My understanding is AS GOAT is a bit harder to work with but last much longer then Max.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Don't get me wrong producing videos is super demanding and time consuming. It's actually the hardest thing I ever did in my life (and I studied in medicine, so that goes to show just how hard it is to produce quality KZbin videos consistently year after year). But yes, at least I enjoy producing them. I have been doing videos since April 2016, so we're coming up on 8 years of videos, over 1000 videos so far, with new ones added twice weekly. Plus I can spend up to four hours each day personally replying to KZbin comments, as I like being connected with my viewers. No other big channel does that. I won't lie, it does take away from my personal and family time, but in the end, I'm so passionate about detailing, it's nice to see my viewers share a common passion with me.

[@Remyp388]

You definitely help me and others pick the best products and help with new ideas and techniques to detail it’s my hobby, I’m a weekend warrior when I have time to keep tight and keep my car clean. 😅 keep up the great work man look forward to your next video and all the new products from this years SEMA.

I applied Avalon King to my 720S almost two years ago, and the properties seem to still be effective on the PPF. Since it's been two years, I think I'll try their new product. I love that it can be used on glass, plastics, etc. Thank you for the review, Pan; your videos provide excellent visual demonstrations.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks! What color is your 720S? Those are beautiful cars. If I didn’t have my 911 Turbo S and didn’t care for all wheel drive (I drive it in winter), I would have loved a 765LT!

[@milbydunnii]

@@PanTheOrganizer It's Sarthe Gray 2022-such a neat color. It appears black at night, but in daylight, the blue in the gray shines through. I considered the 911 T, but the McLaren's dihedral doors were irresistible. The sunroof's two-tone, button-activated design is fantastic as well. I'm eyeing the 911 T for the future, but I'm already tempted by the new McLaren 750. All the best!

[@lindavent9490]

Really happy to see they have upgraded the applicator pad. That foam block was terrible! For the beginner or non-professional diyer, I do think this is an acceptable product. User friendly, that doesn't break the bank, and provides a great result. The new and improved version looks even better and I will definitely consider purchasing. My only beef with Avalon King, is when they have a sale. I live in Canada, and when I tried to purchase Armor Shield Lite, $25 immediately jumped $10 plus tax and shipping, which brought the final price to almost $50. Not a great deal, and I was unable to get the advertised price, after numerous attempts. I gave up and purchased Maguiars ceramic topper at Walmart for $20. It does the same job I'm sure, for half the price.

[@stephenthompson1562]

Hi Pan. Even from PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND here again. With all these new coatings you should do at some point in time a review of the top five and see if there's some sort of tool that measures the gloss factor of the paint and see which one comes out on top! These videos are great thank you for all your great work. When I'm visiting my family in Montreal I'd love to see your shop sometime lol!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks Stephen!

[@kawh8719]

Pan, I really appreciate your detailed review. Extremely helpful showcasing your steps. I used AvalonKing 9 on my brother's motorcycle, amazing protection! His bike always looks amazing and it's a show stopper when he wipes off the dust for admirer's. It's great to show your work on different cars, most of us can only dream about detailing a Porsche!

[@ultrapepe2905]

​@@PanTheOrganizer please reply 🙏 Pan could you please tell me what we could use for those that have used the turtle wax hybrid solutions ceramic spray coating and alike that can go over top for dealing with the water spots? (The one's that don't come with the extra step)

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I don't understand your question. If your paint has water spots, it depends how bad they are and how deeply they etched through the clear coat. You start with the less aggressive method first, and then see the results, and move up with more aggressive methods if the water spots aren't gone. 1) Use a waterspot removing shampoo like this: amzn.to/40txSJz 2) Use a waterspot removing spray like this: amzn.to/3uf65Ak (the car has to first be washed, and then you use the spray on a clean and dry surface) 3) Machine polishing.

[@tellis17]

Super excited to try this ! If I was to use the Armor shield lite every 2 months what can I use when I after my weekly wash’s for a drying aid/ final wipe down.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

You can use Lite as often as you want. Or any ceramic or graphene based quick detail spray that you want.

[@TheCarDetailingChannel]

Great overview of this new coating Pan. I didn’t think the original Armour Shield 9 could get any easier as it was already the easiest ceramic coating I’ve ever used (even easier than uk3.0). I think I’ll probably grab some of this stuff just to try it out. The problem I have with Avalon King is that I think they have some quality control issues with the formula, I’ve applied their coating several times and have seen inconsistent results; for the price though, it’s too be expected.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks for watching! Yeah the original was sooooo easy to apply, it was the easiest when it was released years ago. This new one still retains that ease of application, and should in theory last longer all with just one layer, so I'm looking forward to real world testing to see how long it goes.

[@theunknownpers0n]

Thanks for the video Pan! Ive just bought this thanks to your review! I applied it to my new Audi q4 it’s a big car so it took just over 3/4 of the bottle but I covered everything from windows paint, plastics to wheels. It pops now. can’t wait to see its hydrophobic capabilities!! Installed outside in the UK weather it was just as easier as their last coating.

[@dvcavall]

I have really been enjoying Pan's videos. After watching his initial review of the previous product I ordered two bottles. Then I watched the Dimitri's Garage video where he tested that product with washings and it failed after two washes! Adams Graphine Ceramic, tested the same way lasted hundreds! I hope Pan begins doing actual testing for things like durability..BEFORE..posting reviews.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Be careful what you accuse me of. You need to get your facts straight before dropping false accusations. I saw his video and he tested the old silver/chrome bottle Armor Shield IX, not the new MAX black bottle version. Two COMPLETELY different products! The previous one I had tested in real world conditions and made many updates. It lasted 18 months on a super neglected car. Here’s a two year update video that I made: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJeZk5Sfj9iem6Msi=P93Qtb3uuY2vHqMF This was an entry level super inexpensive coating especially with the discount code. Are there better coatings? Absolutely, but they are usually more expensive. The Adam’s Advanced Graphene Ceramic Coating is significantly more expensive. So yes of course it should absolutely last longer. This new MAX version only requires one layer and the claimed durability is three years. I will be making updates on that too. And it’s not because a product doesn’t last in one person’s conditions that it means it will not last for another person. There are tons of variables to consider for durability. Prep, application, conditions, weather, mileage, maintenance. I have covered that topic many times in the past. I have also been testing the Adam’s Advanced Graphene Ceramic coating for over 2.5 years on my girlfriend’s car and it’s still doing ok. It did start to lose a bit of its original performance, but it’s hanging in there. It likely won’t last the full claimed 9 years though, as weather is brutal in Canada. The only way to test a coating is to apply it and see how it does in YOUR specific conditions. Multiple wash test in one video doesn’t mean much. Nor do chemical resistance tests. Real world tests on a daily driven vehicle is the only way to draw true conclusions. Also, NOBODY would test a product for four years before making a video... I hope you realize how stupid that is. By the time you'd be ready to make the video, there would be hundreds of newer and better products. The best thing to do is to apply, show people what the product is about, and do real world updates every now and then when possible.

[@bryanvlogs1421]

After using DIY details 3 year graphene coating I cant go back to any other coating both personal and professional. But Avalon King is a decent choice also. Good Video!

It was three summers ago that I applied AS IX to our four vehicles. (We are in the north-eastern Ohio area.) First, the coating on my car remains fantastic; however, consider that my '88 Camaro is a summer-only car and is hand washed followed by Turtle Wax Flex Wax as a drying agent. The IX is nearly spent on my wife's Trax and my Silverado--both are year round drivers, are solely tunnel washed weekly at the local Car Wash, and had gotten only semi-frequent ceramic detail spray applied (tough to do in sub-zero temps). Finally, the Equinox coverage was spent after the first year--our older son had it in college in Stuebenville for year one and our younger son now has it at Ohio State. That car was lucky to have been washed whenever they came home with it. It's really all about the maintenance. Next summer I will be busy with five cars (older son recently purchased a Colorado) and this new product!

Hi Pan, I like the Armor Shield Coating the only issue I had was water spotting. This is normal from what I have learned. So I had to put CarPro Gliss as a topper. Then it was better from rain no problem but from the sprinkler system I had to get the car dry soon as I could. I wonder if the MAX will be better at water spotting? I do love the new one coat and dry time.

Congrats Andy on your new home and fantastic shiny looking suv. I love that Andy's car is close to the color of my Rav 4 it gives me an idea of how the product will turn out :)

Thanks for watching!

Hey, Pan. Love your videos. Ty for the content. I just bought a 2023 model Y. Which ceramic coating would you recommend? I have watched all the different videos , with different products you have used. I just need help nailing it down. Ty

Hi John! First, welcome to my channel. You discovered one of the biggest car detailing channels on KZbin as we surpassed 945,000 subscribers and we have over 125 million views! I have been detailing for 26 years and I love to share my knowledge and passion with my viewers. You found the right channel to help you learn everything about detailing. There are so many coatings, at different price points, there isn't one good answer. It depends on your needs, your experience level, your budget, and if you're looking for a pro grade or DIY consumer grade coating. One thing is for sure, all my top products recommendations are in my popular annual car detailing products awards here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYPZaKmBqNqfn7Msi=zhvoyi8oL1jho8sC

Hi Pan, awesome channel, you’re the GOAT. I have a Boxster, just wondering if there’s a ceramic coating for the fabric roof? None of the solutions I’ve used are hydrophobic for very long and I wonder what the best maintenance solution is? Thanks!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks! For fabric tops, there are some fabric coatings like CarPro Fabric 2.0 but none are designed to last for years like oaint coatings due to the soft surface they’re applied to unfortunately.

[@J1Z06]

I didn't have good luck with the original version. Maybe I'll try this. Andy's vehicle looks BETTER THAN NEW!!! WOW!!!

Yeah he was so happy!

Yes, it should be this month.

Hi Pan, great video. What's the best : glaco or ceramic glass coat ?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

What “ceramic glass coat”? Be specific on the company name and the name of the product. But one thing is for sure, Soft99 Ultra Glaco is the best glass specific DIY coating I have tested.

[@piggietruckerjones7545]

Great video as always. I can't wait to see what's up with the garage.

Thanks!

[@projectdipz-idf]

Hi , merci pour la video . Il y aura une comparaison avec la céramique cerakote ? J'ai l'habitude d'utiliser avalong king , j'essaie de trouver le meilleur rapport qualité prix

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Je ne compare pas des céramiques professionnelles à des céramiques grand public. Les deux sont bonnes pour différentes raisons.

[@MrMimios]

Excellent demo Pan; just wondering if you can also apply this coating on the kompoloi hanging from the inside mirror of the Mazda. Yeia sou!

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Haha bravo opa!!

[@joeydomino6567]

Just used the product based on this video with the shampoo. Brand new car around 4 months old. I didn’t see any rainbowing and have to admit the “slickness” wasn’t much to talk about. Looks good but the paint looks good anyway. Did the entire car (Maverick) and had about 1/4 bottle left. Hmmmm.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Keep us posted on how it does over the coming months and years.

[@brolandry]

Always enjoy your videos Pan, thanks! I applied armor shield IX to my kids car about a month ago. Was sorta disappointed, likely cause I only applied one coat. Can I decon and wipe down and put this one directly on top, or is there another step before applying the MAX?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

You must remove the previous coating by machine polishing. It’s the only way to ensure 100% removal of any previous protection, especially a ceramic coating.

[@loveandbaconbrian1901]

Can you go in direct sunlight after applying it in the shade or do you also have to wait 4 hours for that?

[@abismaellatorre5579]

I love your channel and every time I watch 1 of your videos I feel so inspired to go and detail my car. My question to you is, I don't have access to a garage but I can work in the shade all day but since I'm not in a control enviroment what can that do to the curring time?, with all the wind, dust and or bugs that might land on the vehicle before the 4 hours, should I cover the car in any way?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Thanks for the kind words. It’s certainly not ideal to apply a ceramic coating outside, but if you absolutely need to, you must follow some basic guidelines: - don’t apply in direct sunlight, only in the shade on a cool surface - don’t apply in temperatures below 50F (10C), ideally being closer to 68F (20C) - make sure you do it on a day with no rain - not a windy day where dust flies all over the place

[@giovannia3452]

Do you recommend using this coating for all surfaces like you did in this video or should a trim coat be used for trim and this coating for paint etc?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Up to you to decide. It's versatile enough to be used on pretty much all the exterior surfaces, so might as well take advantage of that, you'll be saving a crap tone of money. But like any versatile coating, it lasts longest on paint, compared to other surfaces. On glass, wheels and plastics, I expect about 1 year. Time will tell.

[@pickels198]

Looking for experience with the Armor Shield G.O.A.T. product. Will application be similar to MAX, flash time, easy leveling, etc.?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I haven’t tested the GOAT yet.

[@nicholosk7280]

Yasou Pan and Andy, Thank you for the video on Avalonking ceramic coating. Which one do you recommend for someone like me who has never used or applied a ceramic coating - is it this one by Avalonking or Cerakote? Thank you, NIKOS

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Both are super easy. Pick the one easiest to purchase for you.

[@joelsmith6919]

Was wondering about this stuff! Really wanna try it out

[@PanTheOrganizer]

[@isabelnunez3349]

Great video as always Pan! I applied the original Avalon King coating a few months ago and so far so good. Do you have a video that shows how to remove a ceramic coating and prep the car for new coating? Also, I used my original Avalon King on all the plastic inside my car, can the Max be used that way as well?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

The only way to remove a ceramic coating is by machine polishing. So you would have to redo all the steps from A to Z. Decon wash, iron remover, clay bar, machine polishing, IPA wipe or paint prep spray to remove polishing oils, and then apply the new coating. The AvalonKing coatings are only meant for exterior use.

[@benoitparadis6398]

Just finished apply the Armor shield Max 3 years,very easy to apply I have many concerns with instructions need to be more clear how we should apply this product. Time for setting, temperature/humidity to install. I can’t find anything…! Anyway job is done the way I think it should be like others brand. I replaced my poor cerakote coating who last 4 months with winter and temperature probably too low when I applied ! The gloss and slickness of cerakote was awesome compared to Avalon max but the water sheeting and bedding was poor. Avalon max is very dry on touch no slickness at all and all my clothes and applicator was good for trash after the product crystallize. Pan already explains the different formula of coating. The included applicator with Avalon was really bad I prefer the applicator they gave with the previous version 2 years.

[@orion9807]

Got an email offer from AK about a week ago and pulled the trigger on the Max product and decided to hold off on the GOAT product until I watch your video/tutorial. Quick question - I always toss the leveling towel but do I need to toss the buffing towel also? BTW I use Rag Co Pearl and Eagle edgeless towels. Great video as always.

[@nickg1449]

I’m curious about tossing the towels also. Thanks for asking the question. Pan, always entertaining and informative… so what do you do with your towels after the coating?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I don't take a chance, and toss all towels and applicators used to apply and level/buff coatings.

[@UcUdtoobdeez]

Would you consider doing 2 coatings? Does that make any difference at all? Great work as always Pan

[@PanTheOrganizer]

No need for two layers here, unless you want a second coat to ensure proper coverage.

[@svetoslavvasilev3282]

Great video! What do you do with the rest of the solution as there is only one applicator in the package? I do not see another that can be purchased? Do you use another brand?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Once opened, you have about 1-2 months to use the rest of the coating before it becomes unusable. You can purchase other microfiber coating applicators, like these: amzn.to/3QLRrJz amzn.to/4bi7RS6 amzn.to/3wCBOgy

Hi Pan, I've been enjoying your how-tos and product reviews. I referenced this video a few months back when I applied MAX as my first attempt at a ceramic coating and it came out great on my vehicle. I was curious if you have tried the other new AvalonKing products that released around the same time as MAX & GOAT, like the newer Shockwave & Sadistic Suds Shampoos, or the Psycho Pro Graphene Spray. If so, would love to hear your opinions on those.

[@canadianelementsautodetailing]

Pan I have an idea that might be good for everybody or only for geeks like myself can you start some type of videos that digs deep into the history of different types of products for example how did the product start as and how it is now how it evolved to become what it is now like a history lesson, would that be a good idea?

Could be an idea for a future video!

Looking forward to test this out when my Armor shield 9 wears out. I applied in 2020 and my car does get park in garage at night so the 9 is still hydrophobic until today. Btw: what are you using for tire shine?

[@RHSTHUG]

You should do a video helping your brother set up the products and machines needed to maintain his car at his new house Probably best to make it beginner based since he is probably newer to detailing

max is great and lot new stuff coming down the road too , i like the ceramic coating spray that's coming out better then the Shield Lite spray my self. beta tester here

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Good to know!

[@jaapsmak4994]

Pan, if you have to choose: Avalon 9, or the new Cerakote ceramic coating, what do you prefer, and why? ( I can not choose)

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Impossible for me to answer, as I need to test both for a longer term. I only applied the AS9 MAX 6 months ago on my brother's SUV, follow up video coming next month most probably. And the new Cerakote has only been released less than a month ago, so I need to test. If the new Cerakote version does well as far as durability is concerned, that would be my choice, as it costs less, only needs 2 hours of curing, and has better gloss and slickness, and is even easier to apply.

[@tag_76]

Great video. I'm curious if a second coat would extend the life even further?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

No. The second layer is more for those who want to make sure they got proper coverage. Only one layer is needed.

[@piperman63]

Pan, great video, I have never heard of this brand before. I am very interested in the new G.O.A.T. product. I would love to see what you think.

Hey Pan, on these kits . Technically when buying a new towel your supposed to wash before use. Towels that come with kits, should you or not wash those towels

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Yes. But as it’s a single use towel, it’s not as critical if you use it straight out of the box

[@DmitryKan68]

I just tried using IX MAX and have a question: what do you do when applicator pad becomes crusty? I don't have time to do the whole car at once. I do a couple of panels at a time. And when I returned for the next go my applicator pad became crusty on the side that I used the first time. How do you soften it back up? Or are you supposed to somehow wash it after use?

[@lthdean]

Have you done a video evaluating color wraps for cars ? AND if not, I would be interested in your opinion of them and their life expectancy vs cost. Thanks

Great stuff Pan! Would you still consider this also a beginner's coating? I have never done it, so wondering if I can go for it as a first timer or stick to the previous version for my first try.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

It has more advanced technology compared to their beginner coating (the original Armor Shield IX) but yes, a beginner can absolutely apply the new MAX version, as it's just as easy to apply! If you have applied a wax in your life, you can definitely apply this coating.

[@KarlMathern]

I have Armour Shield 9 on my car too and would like to go to the new Max coating. what should I do to the car to prepare for the new coating?

[@PanTheOrganizer]

As I mentioned in the video, if you have an exisiting protection, it would be best to: - wash using a prep shampoo like their AK Prep Shampoo - iron remover to remove brake dust and fallout - clay the surface to remove any other embedded contamination - machine polish to ensure 100% removal of the previous protection (CRUCIAL STEP) and remove any swirls/scratches/oxidation - IPA wipe with a paint prep spray (like the AK Prep Spray) or isopropyl alcohol mix to remove polishing oils and residue and prep the surface to receive the new coating - apply the coating I have a full ceramic coating application tutorial here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qaK0iomgraukgZI
