Finally a video on PPF and Vinyl wraps
Thanks Pan. You're awesome
More to come!
Just installed on my GR Corolla last night. Insane gloss it adds to the paint. Rags just glide over the coated panels. Insane.
Thanks for sharing your experience, and congrats on your new GR Corolla. How did you discover my channel by the way?

This is the exact Video I needed for a while Pan, thanks!
Thanks for the feedback Ben! Is your car PPF or vinyl wrapped?
@@PanTheOrganizer Hey Pan, It's not for my car but it's for a friend's PPF wrapped 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser that i've been hired to ceramic coat.
Pan! Another awesome video! I don't even have ppf but when I see a new Pan video I make a coffee, fire up the tv and enjoy the episode! I learn so much from watching you. Thanks!
That's showing great support! Thanks David!
It looks like the towel is sliding on the hood like an air hockey table. That's good stuff.
Outstanding job! The Passion for doing the job right really comes through in the video.Proper steps always determine the final outcome.👍🇨🇦
I appreciate that!
Hey Pan, another very good shampoo that can be used every so often to remove tougher contaminants is Adam's Graphene Shampoo. Can't recall if you've tested that one before. Adam's describes it as a... "Traditional foaming shampoo that balances choice, high foaming surfactants, and citrus-based degreasers to generate a wash that is more than capable of powering through all kinds of road films and grime". Another attribute is the low friction characteristics that graphene provides which in theory will help prevent some marring during a wash. I believe they recommend every third wash or so. Using a Nanomitt with it works really well.
I use the Adam’s Graphene Shampoo often to maintain the Adam’s Graphene Ceramic Coating Advanced on my girlfriend’s vehicle. I made a video about the process here: th-cam.com/video/JLhTW_D7b8Y/w-d-xo.html
Man I am late for this video. But I made it.. very cool pan. I went to work in the making of your video at 4:50am. ❤️👍🏻 need to zoom in more pan. To show use the bubbles. And leveling effect. I love Porsche just not EV’s. I like real cars with engine that make noise and burning tires. And the smells of real HP cars.
I was going to ask about coating on PPF on ur other video and then youtube suggested me this video. Great job with the coating. Somehow gives me a peace of mind watching the car get coated over PPF.
:) With almost 800 videos on my channel so far, and new ones added twice weekly, you will always likely find what you're looking for on my channel. :)
Is ceramic coating bad fir PPF? Does it shorten the lifespan of the PPF?
I've watched ear-wax removal videos and cyst removal videos. This video is just as satisfying.
Thanks Rheo! How did you discover my channel by the way?

Dude, i bought a new car and bought detailing products, and i had my car wraped in PPF .. i had so many questions in my head, and all of them are answered by only you and your channel :D thanks alot really
they shop who applied PPF tph, said dont do ceramic, cause it will damage and make tph pff yellow, is it true?
ah by the way i wanna ceramic coat my PPF cause i want my car driping wet), but as i read the comments on amazon for this product, it doesnt make the car look wet i guess.

This is totally not true. Unless you had some crappy PPF installed. Heck quality PPF manufacturers like XPEL even have their own line of ceramic coatings to be applied on top of the PPF.
The ceramic coating will prevent the PPF from yellowing, as it helps to block UV rays, and also will provide your PPF with more slickness, and also provide self-cleaning properties making the car easier to wash, and provide chemical resistance, and awesome hydrophobic properties. Depending on which coating you apply, some can increase the gloss too, but the PPF specific coatings not as much as the paint coatings.
Thank you so much!! :)@@PanTheOrganizer
Coated my M2C with full XPEL ppf coverage, as well as a buddy's 911 Carrera T (also with full PPF coverage - Suntek ultra), with GTechniq Halo - in part from your video and in part from Obsessed Garage videos - and must say, it's been performing very well, and am overly happy with it. I did both cars over the 4th of July weekend in the USA, and after a couple maintenance washes since, still obviously holding up nicely. The beading and sheeting is so strong, that even the heavy suds from my foam cannon don't want to stick to the car when initiating the washing process. Thanks for the videos, Pan!
Thanks for sharing your experience Patrick and thanks for the kind words about my videos!
Based on this video, I applied two coats of Gtechniq Halo to my Fiat 500 Abarth which has a "distressed patina" vinyl wrap. The 3-M over-laminate on the printed wrap has a matte finish and I was worried that this product might ruin the effect by increasing the gloss. I'm happy to say that the matte finish was unchanged and looks exactly the same as before. However, when I run my hand across the finish it feels much more slick. It remains to be seen if this coating performs as well as the Adams Graphene coating I used on my Porsche and several other vehicles, chosen also because of one of your earlier videos.
Compared with the Adams Graphene, the prep work for the Halo product was a bit less because I didn't clay bar the vinyl wrap but the application took more effort because the Halo not only requires two coats, it also has a little more drag when leveling (wiping) the coating. However, it certainly wasn't difficult. I also miss the nifty blue UV tracer in the Adams product which glows blue under a UV light so you can see exactly where it was applied.
For reference, I used half of the 60ml bottle of Adams to do my Porsche. It took 2/3 of a 50ml bottle of Halo to do my Fiat but I dropped the bottle and spilled a little bit. I would say that I could have gotten by with the 30ml bottle but if your car is larger than a Fiat 500 (aren't all cars?) then go with the 50ml bottle of Halo and try not to waste any. I also suspect a gloss wrap or PPF would use less product than my matte vinyl wrap.
Thank you again for keeping us up to speed on the latest and greatest products for protecting our cars.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Just keep in mind PPF coatings don't last as long as some of the more durable paint coatings. You should expect 1 to 2 years of protection if you applied it well, and do proper maintenance. I will also be looking forward to long term durability results in my conditions, to see how well they do over time, as they are still fairly new to the market.
Hi pan vary nice car hope all is well with you an your family.
I like to say to you pan is congratulations on 700,000 yes I seen it on TH-cam

Revisiting this video because just gotta Jaguar SUV and I want to get PPF done and then of course ceramic coat it. Your videos are timeless!
Thanks Joseph! Congrats on your new Jag! What model?
@@PanTheOrganizer thanks Pan! The E pace! Needed something that'll fit in my small garage 😅
Sweet!! What color?
@@PanTheOrganizer the dreaded but gorgeous black on black with black wheels and black grille and black [instead of chrome] trim. Black leather inside as well. 🥵
Cool video! With over 10" of snow on the ground... I can only daydream about coating! 😅😃
Thanks for another great vid, Pan! That finish is glowing!
Yeah it came out fantastic! Customer was ecstatic!
@@PanTheOrganizer I'm sure it was quite nice before You started... As always, You took it to the next level 😃😎
Another great video!! I’ll be applying this on my neighbors Ford Lightning when it arrives after he gets it PPF’d. Gosh, that Porsche paint color is incredible.
I was waiting SO MUCH for this tutorial! Thanks Pan! Great video as always!
Glad you liked it!
Waited so long for that Video love it. I would love so much to see you detailing a Motorcycle.
Noted! Have you seen my Vespa detailing tutorial? Here: th-cam.com/video/QnrThKlP16w/w-d-xo.html
@@PanTheOrganizer Mr. Pan there is no video of you I haven’t seen ♥️
Thanks Pan for the great info. I asked you awhile back about doing a video on this subject as I have PPF of on my Corvette since day one and now I know just how to keep it looking great! Thanks again for the awesome videos you provide.
Thank you!
I know these are preferred for PPF. However, I had no issues using Carpro Cquarts 3.0 UK worked great.
Many paint coatings can also be used on PPF nowadays. You just have to make sure to read if your specific coating does.
Thank you so much for this video Pan. I've been a fan of yours for years and been using all your techniques. I'm having my new car (Tesla) PPF'ed for the past day and receiving it today. I'll be using a ceramic coat for the PPF. As for the ceramic coat product, haven't decided yet as there are so many of them available. I've narrowed it down to Gyeon and Gtechnik. Love your videos as you explain everything in regards to detailing our cars we love.
Gyeon PPF, CarPro Skin and Gtechniq Halo are all top tier PPF coatings, so regardless of your choice, they should be very similar in performance and all three should last 1-2 years.
Congrats on getting a new Tesla! What model and color did you get?
If it can help to inspire you further, watch a Tesla full A to Z detailing video I made here: th-cam.com/video/gohks8xP5NY/w-d-xo.html
@@PanTheOrganizer : Thank you so much the input Pan. I got the Tesla M3 model in blue with white interior. I already ceramic coated the white interior using Gyeon interior. I watch the video that you posted in regards to the Tesla. I'm based in Northern California (bay area east bay), so our weather here is fairly reasonable.
😁👍🏻
Perfect video to watch with your first morning coffee 😉🙂. Gorgeous Taycan, colour is amazing 👍🏻. Have a great weekend Pan 🙋🏼♂️🙂👍🏻
Thank you! You too!
I'm doing a coating job on a '24 Acura Integra type S in Pearl White this weekend with Halo to the nose/hood/rockers. Following with CSL/EXO after that on the non-ppf panels.This is My first time coating PPF, so I thought I'd learn from THE BEST! 😬😎🤘🏼 Thank You, Pan.
Sounds great! You can do it!
It'll look great once it's done!
@@PanTheOrganizer Pan, it turned out beautiful! Super slick and protected. It took us about 6 hours with lunch and chatting. Then a nice ride in The Huracan Tecnica!
😍🥰 ppf/vinyl wrapped with ceramic coating is my dream protection.
Best of both worlds.
Excellent video Pan; so good to see a pro' at work. I noticed that when applying the second square to the bonnet (hood), you overlapped the first square. Cleary, after a minute or so of drying, that created no apparent problem. So, how long can a section be left drying before application of the adjacent panel without causing any problems? You can tell, I worry for England to Olympic standard.
Don't overthink the moment. As long as you are methodical and apply the coating in one sitting, you're fine. It takes 24 hours for the initial cure to fully happen. But you can usually correct high spots up to 30 min after the application.
I think you answered my most important question that no one else has yet - that is one can apply ceramic coating on ppf !! As long as it is designed for it. So Thx! Question 1. - so can i use the gtechniq halo on an xpel ppf ? Question 2. Can i apoly this ceramic coating on my car windows , mirrors , sunroof and alloy wheels ? If not , any other recommendations ? And question 3. Can i use optimum no rinse to wash the car with ppf and ceramic costing ?Thx a bunch for sharing this tutorial!
Excellent job Master PAN!!!!
Thanks!
Great video Pan as always! I've had Halo applied on my AMG 45s in satin ppf, which for durability it lasts me around 1 year. Including doing regular maintenance washes living here in the UK. As mentioned in the video it is a very product to use in the correct conditions. I personally like to try and stay with Gtechniq products as much as possible as they design and produce these in the labs research etc for maximum results, would be nice to see this product last that bit longer if they can do this would be great, that would be it's only let down to me.
They advertise it for 2 years, only one year is pretty disappointing to be honest.
Ok, so you can't use clay bar...how do I restore the hydrophobics?
Hi Pan, on my truck the PPF covers the front end of the truck but ends midway up on the hood. Any precautions I should take when polishing the hood where the painted metal meets the PPF?
Great guide! Very much appreciated for providing detailing guide. Keep up the great work.
Thanks, will do!

Hehe, I giggle too when applications are that easy. It's kind of hard to believe sometimes. The first time I applied ceramic I was just blown away. It's like an entire bottle of Chemical Guys V07 sealant was dumped on the car. It's nuts. But graphene is becoming a major competitor too. Seeing how fast the detail world is growing and the tech behind it, it'll be interesting to see what the next best thing is.
Yeah the detailing world has gone into hyper speed mode in the past 5 years! New products, new brands, new tech on a monthly basis it seems. So fun to be a part of all of this!

Lost a lot of weight Pan......great video!
Thanks Eddie! I have lost over 25 lbs in the past 8 months. I still do training at the gym like before (mostly cardio and a bit of weights) but the main difference was calorie counting thanks to an app.
Pan, this is an excellent tutorial. I just so happen to have a new camp trailer (Off Grid trailers) Expedition 2.0, Made In Canada even, with a graphic vinyl wrap - looking forward to doing this ASAP. Thanks for sending me this link, really appreciate it. Take care.
😁👍🏻
Good morning Pan, interesting video
Thanks Bernie!
Fantastic review of what appears to be another amazing option for ceramic coatings. I’m currently still in love with a different product but appreciate the insight my bru!
Thanks bru!
Cool! I for one am very interested in all PPF-related content so I'll be sure to look out for any/all future updates, reviews and comparisons on the topic. Thanks Pan
Thanks Andrew!
@@PanTheOrganizer One thing I've just learned browsing the product pages that might be of note here is that CarPro Skin can be removed with a stripping solution, so apparently no polishing necessary if you decide to change coatings down the line. If accurate it's a great selling point IMO, and they also claim heavy UV resistance, which can be particularly important for PPF. Just comparing the product claims between the two featured here.
Personally have used HALO and it's awesome 😎
I agree
Super informative video, highly organized. I'll have to come back to it a few times to retain it all. Thank you.

I'm attempting Xpel Stealth and I was thinking Ecocoat Shield.
Another great tutorial, as always awesome job and thank you Pan! 🔥💯👍
Appreciate it!
Hi Pan, great video as always. Do we need to wait for PPF to fully cure before applying any coating on top? How long should i wait after getting my PPF installed?
After PPF has been installed, it can take a few days to fully cure and settle. It's recommended to not wash the car for 7 days after the PPF is installed, and also avoid touching or pressing areas on the film for at least a week. You may notice some bubbling after installation that will smooth out once the film has completed dried and settled.
Thank you for the video!!

Bon boulôt Pan comme toujours ! Merci
Merci Marko!
Awesome thanks Pan I don't know how I missed this video, those 2 products are great options as with results and easy of application. I don't like to use products that claim to last 3 plus years because I don't want to fall in the mind of set it and forget it, I like the 1 to 2 years of protection because then when is time to reapplied the product you can do a good cleaning decontamination and polish on the car before protecting it again especially with the harsh heat and rain here in south fl
There you go! 👍🏻
If you had PPF that was several years old with an old/failing coating, how would you prep the PPF'd panels for a new coating outside of wash/iron remover? Is clay/polishing necessary to remove the old coating from the PPF?
Yes a light polish would be necessary to remove any old ceramic coating. It's the only way to ensure 100% removal of any previous protection.
Great job! Loving that beautiful color! Looks great 👍
Thanks Danny!
What is the process if you want to reapply it after 1 year on PPF that already have it? (Halo) do you have to use carpro reset or something similar first?
Great video! What should I do with my vehicle that only has ppf on the front (front bumper and fenders, and hood)?
Regular ceramic coating for the whole car?
Vinyl/ppf coating for the whole car?
Or 2 different coatings for each section of the car?
Most paint coatings can also be applied to PPF nowadays. So check if the coating you are buying is good for paint and PPF and just apply that coating all over.
Great video as always. Thank you for doing this demo.

Woooow Pan awesome 👏 video and 2👍👍to that halo coating it’s so user friendly and easy to apply and Pan just by watching that finish results you don’t need a mirror on the morning time haha 🤣 I really enjoyed that one ☝️ what a way to end the first week of 2022 lol 😂 much love Pan you’re the best enjoy your day 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌🔐🔐🔐🔐🔐🔐
Heheh glad you enjoyed this!! Let's go 2022!!
Exectly 4:00 minutes in you say you have many videos on prepping cars for ceramic, I figured you meant you have a video on preparing PPF for ceramic coating. So wasn't sure if there's something special that needs to be done to PPF before ceramic coating.
It's pretty much the exact same prep. Except you would be very gentle with a light polish only if you see fine scratches in the PPF. And avoid using tar removers. But you can wash, use an iron remover (don't let it dry on the surface though, and don't work in direct sunlight!) and light polish, followed by the IPA wipe. Pretty much the same as for normal paint.
Thanks again for another excellent video Pan. Your passion shines through time and time again. I have a truck with PPF installed on the front end only. Would it make sense to use a PPF specific coating on those panels and top with another cermaic coating? For instance Carpro skin and SIC on the PPF panels and Cquartz UK 3.0 and SIC on the clearcoat panels?
No, at that point, just apply CQUK 3.0 on all the paint and PPF. CQUK can be applied on PPF too. :)
Hey pan, a sugestion, do a video specificaly on how to wash vehicles with ppf, would be great
You wash them the same way as you would a car with no PPF. Same shampoos.
Great video! Hoping you can clarify something for me. While these coatings are supposed to be formulated specifically for PPF, your earlier videos (and those of many others) have always said that other ceramic coatings that were not formulated specifically for PPF could still be applied over PPF. In many cases, the durability of the other ceramic coatings (CQuartz UK 3.0, Glassparency, and some others) have 2 or 3X the longevity (claims) of the two featured here. If the others can last longer, then what "advantage" is there really to these coatings being formulated specifically for PPF? If you recommend using these over traditional ceramic coatings, why is that? Or are these just two more "options" in the arsenal, without any real advantage over traditional ceramics?
That's a great question and it would be best answered by the chemists that formulate these products. My understanding is that paint coatings can usually be applied to PPF but you can't guarantee the durability as much as they weren't specifically made for that purpose. PPF specific coatings will usually do a better job on PPF.
Maybe it’s better for not inhibiting the PPF self healing layer.
Pan, your information is what makes DIY guys successful. Is there one ceramic coating you recommend for a car that has paint and PPF, or do you advise using two different products designed for each surface? If it two products, should I ceramic coat the paint first or the PPF areas? Thank you.
PPF coatings are only for PPF. But most paint coatings can also be applied on PPF. So if you have a mix of paint and PPF, get a good paint coating and apply to all those surfaces.

Thanks Pan awesome Video this the one ive been waiting !!
Hope you enjoyed it! :)
Very informative video! Also I think it'd be cool if you'd do videos of you detailing expensive sports cars. That is if you do detail them of course.
Yeah as you can see with this high end Porsche, I love expensive cars too. I detail many (Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, etc) but it's very hard to get the customer's approval to film their vehicle. And I respect my customers' privacy so when possible, like for this Taycan Turbo, and they accept, well I make a cool video! :)
What would be your favourite sports car to see getting detailed?
@@PanTheOrganizer Oh I see that makes sense. Me personally I would want my car to be featured, that is when I get a nice car. I would like to see anything that is rare mostly and very unique in its own way, if you know what I mean?
Hi just found your channel and great videos on how to prep and look after the care of your car. I am getting a new car shortly and looking to get it PPF’d Premium Shield Nxt Gen from an approved Installer. It is supposed to be hydrophobic and the installer said that you do not need ceramic coating with this particular PPF. However I love the shine and gleam ceramic coating gives and was planning to use Avalon King Armor Shield IX. Do you think this would be ok to use on my PPF? I appreciate that you mention on this video to use a specific ceramic coating that is suitable for PPF. But on Avalon’s website it says it is suitable to use on PPF. I would like to use this one based on how easy it is to apply. Your thoughts would be appreciated 👍👍
I enjoy your videos. I learned a lot from you. But can you pls tell me if I can put 2 coats of ceramic on my truck. Do you recommend 2 coats
Gtechniq says only a single layer is required. I only apply one layer.

Excellent video...good job Pan.
Thanks Edmond!
I know this is an old video but very informative. Now how would a ceramic coating work on a ppf that is matte, would it make it shine or how does the ceramic react to the matte film? Thanks for the amazing videos you make and keep up the great work sir!!!
Thanks! All three coatings can be applied to gloss, satin and matte PPF and vinyl wraps. (Gtechniq Halo, CarPro Skin and Gyeon PPF).
For matte surfaces, see my video here: th-cam.com/video/5RocSxJQmzI/w-d-xo.html
@@PanTheOrganizer much appreciated sir!! Great content on that video as well thank you so much for the help and response. Keep up the amazing work and thank you again.
Thanks Jose!!
I would love to see you review the new Gyeon PPF Evo coating to determine how that compares to these established PPF coatings.
Gyeon products are usually very comparable to CarPro (even in the product offerings) so my bet is that it would be near identical in performance.
Can one use the AvalonKing Armor Shield IX which you have endorsed to use “everywhere” in an earlier video for this purpose?
Yeah Pan, I'm curious to know this too
I have! And with great success I might add! The whole front of my new Audi is protected with a PPF and coating it with Armor Shield was as smooth and as effective as all of the non PPF panels of my car. Go for it!
Yes you can apply the AvalonKing on PPF and vinyl wraps too.
Thanks for the video. What does a high spot look like? Appreciated
Thanks for the video and the detailed process as always! I'm planning to do mine next weekend. How much did you use, 30 or 50ml for this car? Also, do you recommend using this on the windows and sunroof? I know this is a different style of coating.
The coatings in this video are exclusively for use on PPF and vinyl wraps. No other surfaces.
One 30 ml bottle was enough for this car.

Thanks for this brilliant as always ! Can you use iron remover on a matte vinyl wrap as part of the decon prep , thanks
Awesome video and tutorial good friend. Badass color.obviously ur car is faster I'm sure. Still amazing machine. Maybe next 1 u can do some polishing on the wrap b4 coating it.b well good friend
Yeah my car is still a bit quicker than the Taycan Turbo and Turbo S on the quarter mile. But just by a few tenths. These high performance electric cars are really mind blowingly quick!
U just made ceramic coating looks so easy. Quick question: Did you do any paint correction before this car was ppf-ed? This coating seems pretty DIY-able, just not sure about paint correction step. Thx
The car came to me already with PPF so I didn’t perform the paint correction. It seems the team that did it might not have been the best hehe.
Hi Pan! If one already has PPF+ceramic coating applied, would it be advisable to use SiO2 toppers (not necessarily designed for PPF) every once in a while to help the CC last longer? And for that extra GLOSS? I'm thinking Gyeon Wet Coat, Capro Elixir every 1-3 months and maybe a ceramic detailer every now and then. Also wondering if those new Turtle Wax Graphene products (Flex Wax, to the Max Wax) would work well over a ceramic coat that's on top of a PPF. Thanks for all the awesome videos!
Yes I would absolutely use SiO2 or graphene toppers to maintain the PPF and ceramic coating. Gyeon WetCoat is a great simple to use maintenance product. Flex Wax is compatible too, but it's a longer lasting product, so you usually use it more as a base layer of protection, not really a topper. And Max Wax I wouldn't recommend on top of a ceramic coating.
@@PanTheOrganizer thank you for the thorough and helpful reply!

Thanks Jonathan! How did you discover my channel?
@@PanTheOrganizerwe’ve corresponded a few times via Instagram. I’m a detailer and love your channel
Very nice car! Great video to reference if ever needed, thank you!
Thanks! :)
I really enjoy your videos! Is a coated PPF covered car more glossy than a coated car without PPF? I'd be interested in seeing a video about the pros and cons of adding PPF vs just coating a new car.
Thanks! Yes in general ceramic coatings boost gloss on the surface. The car after the coating certainly looked better than before the coating was applied.
But the main reason you would apply a coating is UV protection, slickness, hydrophobics and self-cleaning properties, meaning that the car is much easier to wash during maintenance washes.
Awsome video Pan! Just a quick question. Do you have a video on how to prep a vehicle with PPF for ceramic coating. What I mean is, do you have a video how to prep a car/truck that has had PPF on it for over a year such as clay bar it, Iron X, or an obital polisher and polish on it before applying a ceramic coating.
I don’t.
I used this it’s a great results
Thanks for sharing!
How long has it lasted? Hope it really lasts for 2 years as it says.
Hey Pan, How about a follow up on this car, putting a second Ceramic coat on top of this one. My Tesla is in the shop right now getting full PPF wrap and a Ceramic coat on top of that. I'm thinking of putting another layer or two on top of what the shop does.
I won't do that. You can't guarantee chemical compatibility and overapplying different protectants doesn't do any good usually. Plus you'll never know how long the base coating actually did if you try applying another one on top.
If you want to do that, by all means, you're free to do as you wish. But don't expect me to do that.
Great video just had my vinyl wraped car ceramic coated with halo.
What exact product can i use to boost it up?
Thanks.
Beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
Pan please make a video about washing a wrapped car
Same procedure as a normal painted car.
Hey Pan Awesome review, just wanted to know a few things, is it safe to use products such as N914 wash, Koch Chemie GSF or a drying aid like bead maker or Obsessed Garage Drying Aid on the PPF with the GTechniq Halo? For Tar and Brake Dust is Tar X and Iron X is also safe to use?
Yes
Great video, Pan! Thank you for covering this PPF topic.
Question - so when the 1-2 years is up and the coating life is finished, should the PPF be polished before applying another application of the coating?
Yeah a light polish and IPA wipe
@@PanTheOrganizer Does this also apply to matte PPF?
@@PanTheOrganizer what about for matte PPF?
W5 Citus came in a spray bottle and I beleive you said 5-6 months to use? Just spray on PPF and wipe off? Also, I used the HALO and also purchased the Reset (maintenance) and the C2 Ceramic Sealer. How often should I use the C2?
Good morning Pan. Will be parting with my 2015 BMW 435i M Sport and getting a 2022 Kia EV6. Will definitely be adding PPF at least to the front back to the door panels. Don’t know anything about PPF, what type to use or who I select to apply. After applied and watching this Video will do the prep and then apply a coating. Will it be AvalonKing or one of those in the Video? My experience applying AvalonKing might make the process easier. Oh, plus everything I learned from you over the past 2 years.
Good thing is that you can also apply AvalonKing on top of PPF, so if you still have it, use it on all the car.
Super nice car. Like the color.
Yeah it's a super nice color!
A great video pertaining to PPF, ceramic coating and maintenance. I use Car Pro Ech20 Pan. Is that enough to clean the contaminants on the PPF and ceramic coating? I use Reload every 4 months also.
Ech2O is a waterless wash/quick detailer depending on dilution. It's not meant for a perfect clean. When possible, I would still recommend a good traditional two bucket wash with CarPro Reset.
Great video…very interesting-thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! How did you discover my channel Steven?
@Pan - you said several times both coatings are fine for matte PPF, which I have on my Tesla model Y. I wrote to the CarPro people and they said Skin may make the matte fairly glossy (maybe not ruining the PPF, but a glossy/shiny layer on top). Have you personally applied over matte PPF? Thoughts?
The Ceramic Pro PPF installer used Ceramic Pro’s PPF/Vinyl base and top coat as a protectant in the Tesla. Thoughts on Ceramic Pro products? Would you switch to the ones in your video?
Thanks!
I haven’t tested on matte surfaces. But CaPro themselves, on their own official website, state it can be used on matte surfaces. Check it out here: carpro.global/catalog/cquartz-skin/
So it seems we’re getting conflicting information from the brand.
One thing that can happen is coatings, even matte coatings, often make the surface richer in appearance. But not glossy.
looks stunning
Yeah the results came out great!
Thank you for making this video. I just bought a Taycan 2 weeks ago, and auto shops have given me different prices for PPF and Ceramic Coating. I’ve rn on the fence on which to do, and this video has helped me tremendously. Now, I know to have PPF done at the shop and I can apply the ceramic coating. Thank you!!
Do you know if Xpel for PPF is a good product?
XPEL is some of the best PPF yes. So is SunTek.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you!!

Hey Pan, love all of your videos! Overall, would you recommend ppf with a ceramic coating OR just ceramic coat everything OR stay old school and just use sealants, wax etc....
I can't answer that question Bob, as it depends on your needs and budget. I personally don't like the look or feel of PPF, but I get a brand new car every three years, so scratches and stone chips are of no concern to me, and I do low yearly mileage. If you're someone that keeps their car 5+ years, drives 12,000 miles or more yearly, and are concerned about scratches and stone chips, then PPF is your only solution.
For the best of both worlds, you would have a PPF applied first, and then a ceramic coating on top. But that is a costly option for sure.
Ceramic coatings (the real ones in glass bottles), last for years, compared to just a few months for regular carnauba waxes or paint sealants. So ceramic coatings are the best form of paint protection in my opinion.
Another great video Pan and thanks as I'm about to ceramic coat the portions of my car that have PPF. I was watching to see how you prepped the PPF because as you say - that's the hard part. What products would you recommend for polishing PPF? Manufacturers warn against it but detailers say it's OK provided you use very fine polish, soft pads, and no pressure. Maybe something for a future lesson?
Sonax Perfect Finish polish and a Rupes yellow foam pad (fine) is my combo for PPF. Works great. Here are links:
Rupes yellow foam pad: bit.ly/3ujLF7x
Sonax Perfect Finish: bit.ly/3guRQ0h
PPF manufacturers have no choice to be on the cautious side as they don't know what compounds or polishes or pads people will be using. You can imagine the potential nightmare if they wouldn't warn people against that. If you know what you're doing and use common sense, a light polish is fine.
Thank you for great video tutorial. On my fully Ppfd T-MS I have applied Avalon King ceramic coating. Car looks great but after first wash the surface is not very slick. Is there any specific product that improves slickness or even better like water sheeting? I would be very thankful if you can provide me and the whole watching community this advice.
Top it with APEX ReHydra Sheet, for a slick and sheeting finish. Reapply once a month, or dilute it 1:1 and use it as a drying aid after each wash. If you want beading, use ReHydra Bead
Beadmaker is another good one I use to maintain slickness
@Rama Nrusimhadevara
I have Car Pro Ceramic UK applied in 2018
@@lazyjacket thank you very much for your advice 🙏🏻
Does the halo ceramic kit come with the applicator pad, and microfiber cloths??
No. The new Halo V2 comes with:
30ml or 50ml HALO Flexible Film Coating
A pair of nitrile gloves
AP2 Ultra Soft Foam Filled Applicator
Instruction Leaflet
Gtechniq window sticker
