A note to anyone considering getting PPF. For the love of god stay clear of stealerships.. go to a shop that specializes in it instead. I haven't even had mine on a year and its already lifting
Wife got hers at the dealership and they told me they just subcontract it out. So most dealerships aren't doing it in house, just ask who they do it through and then make another phone call to that shop and ask what product they use on dealer cars.
My buddy got his Subaru done by the dealership's guy and I used my detailer's guy and it was night and day difference of what I got for the price. We paid the same amount of money and I got a full hood and fenders he got a partial. Also there were huge gaps and outlines on his bumper.
I had some chemical etch into my ceramic coated PPF. Polishing did not help, but applying heat did! Used a blow dryer and that fixed some water spots and etching. Really loving XPELs 10mm film with self healing
Hi Pan, I had my black Tesla protected with PPF, and had ceramic coat applied at the same time. I have been using Mckee’s rinse less wash and Armor coat lite from Avalon King as a drying aid since I washmy car once a week. I also use this product as a maintenance polish once a month. Armor coat lite is really simple to remove and leaves a amazing shine and slickness. Thank you for giving me addition maintenance options. Keep up the great videos Pan!
@Pan The Organizer Hi Pan, this was such a timely video, I recently sold my GLA45 and purchased a brand new Mercedes A45S it will be fully covered in ppf with a ceramic coating so exactly the video I needed to see at this point, thanks Pan 👍 Now I just have the long wait for delivery to get over, hopefully time goes quickly.
Hey Pan, I was wondering if you could make a video a little outside of your normal detailing. Could you try a segment showing the best tips and tricks for keeping a boat looking amazing?
It would be about the same as washing a car. They do have specific shampoo and sealants for boats as those have a different base coating, gel coat as to clear coat
PPF Maintain has nothing to do with WetCoat. WetCoat is sprayed on a wet surfaced and rinsed off. Very different from a spray on wipe off product. But yes, you can use WetCoat on PPF.
@@PanTheOrganizer I will ask the shop about their surface prep after delivery to have some base data, I just normal wash with some Meguairs speed detailing.
Informative video, thank you. I have a 2020 Sienna mini van that has PPF applied over Blizzard White and it shows dirt just under the edges on the hood, front fenders and sideview mirrors. Any way to remove that dirt or mildew from under the PPF?
Whomever installed it did a poor job. They should have wrapped it around the edges going under the hood and out of site. You can try cotton swabs and alcohol Just keep in mind that you want it sitting in the sun to get it to bond back to hood after you have cleaned… Once those edges get damaged they’ll start collecting crap constantly

Hi Pan! I recently came across your Chanel and also recently got my new car wrapped in XPEL Stealth (matte) PPF and Ceramic Coated, including on tire, break calipers ect, this video couldn’t be more timely so thank you. I have been looking at Gtechnic products initially vs these products that you mentioned, if I were to go with GTechnic would you be able to discuss which are also safe on PPF/Ceramic Coating, more so would you actually be able to do a full maintenance wash video of a car that has full PPF/Ceramic Coated as that I would love to see! Hope to hear from you in the comments!
Hey Pan, I have PPF and ceramic coatings on my car for about 1.3 years now. And I noticed, they've done a good job on damage protection etc, however, it doesn't shield them from water marks. it's a lot more obvious especially on the hood's PPF. I've washed my car weekly, and yeah, my country has a lot of rain. Almost raining every 1-2 days so it's quite impossible to keep the car dry all the time.. Any tips to solve this water marks problem?
I suggest Xpel Water Spot remover. It's designed for both PPF and ceramic-coated PPF. I use it after every winter to get rid of any traces of mineral deposits and salt. Just spray it on, let it sit for 30-60 seconds, then rinse off.
@@SuperAnonymities it does not, as per Xpel (and on the bottle as well), it's intended to be used on both Xpel PPF, and Xpel PPF with Xpel Fusion ceramic coating.
@@07wrxtr1 correct, CLR has a pH of 2, which means it is 100x more acidic than Xpel Water Spot remover (which has a pH of 4). Thus CLR will strip most ceramic coatings, which can typically tolerate a pH as low as 3.

Salut Pan! J’ai un Jeep avec des vitre de plastic (soft top) et je veux les polirs, protéger et je me demandais si les produit à polir pour PPF pourrait fonctionner ou s’il existe d’autre produit spécifique! Merci de nous partager ta base de connaissances!
Hi Pan, would it be ok to wash the whole car with the PPF wash from Gyeon if only the front bumper, fenders, hood, and mirrors have PPF? Or should I wash those with the PPF wash and then switch to my usual shampoo for the rest of the car? Thank you for all your super informative videos by the way, I’ve learned a ton through your videos.
I’ve just put Gtechniq Halo ceramic coating on my PPF on the door pillars. Time will tell if it helps, so far all seems good. Without a coating the PPF has been a pain to keep clean.
I love the channel I am in New York and take all your advice on how to properly maintain a vehicle .here is what I have done to my truck .I had clear bra .008 cover my entire truck and had a covered with expel ceramic coating fusion plus .and glassparency which gets maintain by the installer once a year. I wash my truck once a week with adams meg foam .and use endless shine fallout iron remover .wipe it down with every wash with Geotech C2 liquid crystal .instead of wiping it down I like to use the griots ploy gloss that recently, showed on your channel, will I get the same or better results .you show two products, that caught my eye .griots foaming wash and foaming poly gloss I thought those to products together would might bring the best results .also purchase after your video wet coat which I will try on my wife car which is ceramic coated .I did get your reply on not stacking to many products on ceramic coatings .I would love to hear your advice to make sure that I am properly maintaining my truck .and since you are the master detailer I know that you will have the right answer. I am a long time viewer and love the channel there always so much detail that you put into your channel.and really would like your opinion on this subject
hi i have a question, its been 2 years now i have PPF applied on my car and on top of that i applied 2 layers of Geyon PPF coating, now i feel the hydrophobic properties have immensely diminished thus i want to get my car recoated, so my question is what to do? how do i remove the previous layer on a PPF car and install new layer? Is the procedure same for PPF coated car?
The only way to ensure 100% removal of a previous coating is by machine polishing. So a light polish and polishing pad should do the trick. You'll know you succeeded with the removal when the water won't bead anymore, and will simply be a flat pool of slow sheeting water.
The front of my car has PPF and the rear ceramic coating. I had it done before I found your channel! Next year, I might ceramic coat the PPF. But between now and then, can I use shampoos, cleaners, etc. for ceramic coatings on the PPF? Or PPF shampoos on the ceramic coating. This is just to clean my car every week or so. I guess what I'm asking, what productions for cleaning can be used for both. Thanks!
Yeah the Gyeon PPF stuff is hard to source within the USA, but you can still order from Canada in the links provided. Your exchange rate is so much more powerful than CAD dollars that it will cost peanuts for you to order.
Been a weekend warrior for detailing but now I just had a new car for the first time ever wrapped - but it’s a matte stealth (Llumar) and will be ceramic coated by the shop (not sure what product). So I think everything I’ve been using and doing on my other car is out the window. This video is no matte wrap specific so is there another video that speaks to that or can someone share products and processes
Matte paint, matte vinyl wraps and matte PPF all have the same maintenance, especially once ceramic coated.

No as I have over 1000 videos at this point, and for TH-cam SEO and keywords, it's best to use the words for the title in a way that can increase reach and searchability, rather than episode numbers.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks for the reply Pan, much appreciated. Some places say not to pressure wash at all, which wouldn't be ideal for me. Obviously avoid too much pressure, particularly near the edges, but unlike most other things in this hobby (illness) it's not really something we can learn about as we go, as if we get it wrong once, we damage our expensive ppf. Anyway, thanks for all the advice on your channel 👍
A few of them in this tutorial: th-cam.com/video/7RCgqdGrvrA/w-d-xo.html For the rest, it's pretty much the same as regular paint. Maintenance is the same procedure (iron remover, extra paint protection with the ceramic spray, etc).
Yes, just keep in mind Bead Maker isn't used for long term protection. It just lasts 3-4 weeks on average. We usually use it as a topper over longer lasting protection, to boost gloss and slickness. As long as you're willing to apply Bead Maker regularly, no issues. But the best would be to have a PPF coating, and then use Bead Maker as a maintenance type product. Welcome to my channel.

Question about pressure washing the car, including the undercarriage. I have a Ryobi 2900 psi pressure washer and a Ryobi water broom rated to 3300 psi. My question is what is too high psi for the undercarriage and what psi would a 40 degree nozzle be. I'm guessing not the full 2900 psi. Thanks.
Great videos as always btw 👍 Quick question? I have a vehicle that has a complete PPF all the car has been protected and it has been installed for about 3 years. It’s in great shape and I maintain it well. The vehicle has extremely low mileage and is kept in a garage quite a lot of the time. Do you have to replace the PPF at some point as I have noticed some people say as the PPF ages it’s more difficult to remove it ? Is this correct. I am concerned about how long the PPF will last before it needs to be replaced for easy enough removal before it becomes too difficult to replace? Any advice of information would be really appreciated Thanks
Hey is gyeon bug and grime safe to use on ppf? Hows ceramic pro top coat for a ppf? Certified installer here in pakistan uses ceramic pro top coat on xpel How long can bird droppings be left on before they leave a permanent stain? I just got xpel ultimate plus installed and ceramic pro top coat. When can i use gyeon ppf renew? Isot necessary to use ppf wash and maintain from gyeon or i can use any detailers or sealants like from kamikaze polish angel?
In theory, yes you can clay PPF. However, you should be very careful as traditional clay bars are abrasive. Perhaps use a synthetic clay towel, that won't cause marring, something like this: amzn.to/3JHfrtG And make sure you use a clay lubricant. For polishing, you'd use the same speeds as for paint. You start low to spread (speed 2) and polish using higher speeds (5 or 6) depending on what machine you have. Always do some testing on an inconspicuous area first. Or hire a professional detailer if you're unsure of what you're doing.

Thanks Mark! I appreciate the positive feedback. I work hard to create good videos for my viewers, so it's nice to see those efforts don't go unnoticed.
Pan, thanks for this. PPF isn't cheap so maintaining it properly is an issue. If I had to pick one it would likely be that Gtech Halo. But I have a question: my QX80 is a tad over a year old. Always garaged, maybe 6K miles a year. I understand about being careful of the PPF edges, but why would I not just use Turtle Wax ceramic spray followed by a graphene spray since I already have them, and, they're fairly easy to apply. I understand they may not last 2 years but as an alternative every 3-6 months, would that not work?
Thats what I use all Turtle Wax Graphene Pro products and they work great! No need for ceramic coating as they are prone to water spotting and more difficult to remove.
@@PanTheOrganizer Okay, thanks, I used it today and did just the one coat. Everything turned out great as far as I can tell. My first time doing ceramic. Seemed pretty easy to work with.
I don’t understand your question. The car is washed, decontaminated, polished, and then the PPF is applied. The ceramic coating is only applied at the end, on top of the PPF.
You can start with a water spot remover first. You have to neutralize the minerals before attempting to polish. If the water spots aren’t too old or haven’t started etching through the PPF, it’s possible the water spot remover on its own will solve your issues. Here’s a very good water spot remover: bit.ly/3UO1UX4 Wash the car first, then use the water spot remover. Welcome to my channel.

Pan, Big Fan of the channel down in Knoxville TN!! I recently purchased a 2018 AMG c43 coupe. The vehicle has a clear bra on the front of the hood (only on the hood) installed by the previous owner. I'm unsure of the age of the PPF/ClearBra. are there some tell tale signs of age that I can look for to determine if it needs to be removed now or later. (vehicle is very well cared for and appears to also have a ceramic coat, at least from the beading I've experience when washing) Thanks for any advise!

If the PPF doesn’t seem to peel on edges and hasn’t yellowed or discoloured, it should be fine.
So if my Caddy SUV has PPF only on the complete front end. So front bumper, fenders, side mirrors, and 81-0 inches back on the roof and the A-Pillars. If I do the Halp Flex is it ok to put that Ceramic coating on the ragular clear coat along all the lones where the PPF meets the clear coat. Along the lines where PPF and clear coat meet. Then can I do the rest of the car (no PPF) with normal ceramic coating? So alomg the borders of the PPF the two ceramics will overlap a little bit.

@@PanTheOrganizer Your channel came up as a suggestion and I found you have a lot of great content. Now iI am trying to figure out what wash products to us with my half PPF half paint vehicle. I will be purchasing CR Spotless DIC 20 on your suggestion.
Is all DIY PPF pretty much equal today? I've seen 3 that I'm considering. Also, if you choose one with edges, how often do you think you need to "focus" on cleaning edges? Is this something I have to do literally every wash or quarterly or maybe twice a year?
All the PPF coatings mentioned in this video won’t alter gloss on your matte PPF. Gyeon PPF EVO coating: bit.ly/3lVnham CarPro Skin coating: amzn.to/40s0sKq Gtechniq Halo coating: bit.ly/3Kpth4P
Hi Pan, would you recommend pre washing with a spray foam for my PPF, this seems to be the way forwards for non PPF cars but not shore if this necessary for me? If you do, please could you recommend what products I would need in order to carry out the work. Many thanks. Kind regards
What about small rock chips and scratches in the PPF that are dark and look like a paint chip but aren't? Is there a way to make the damaged spot of film look any better?
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks. Was hoping you knew of a trick to remove the dirt that seems to be trapped on top of the film at the point of impact. Probably my biggest complaint of PPF is that rock chips in the film still look like rock chips in the paint.
Hey Pan...have started watching your videos quite recently...great insight...great work...keep it up.. One question..am planning to do a Carpro Cquartz UK 3.0 coating, can I use the turtle wax Graphene Flex wax on top of it for maintenance other than the Reload which I will be using anyway. Thanks..
Hey Pan, say you were going to coat a car with Synchro Evo, and part of the car was PPF’d. Would you use the specific PPF coating for the PPF section or would you use Synchro on the entire car. The PPF is coat-able in general according to the manufacturer. Thanks!
Hi Pan, I am a fan of your channel for many years now. I just bought a new car with PPF. Can I use (after a maintainance wash) The last Coat 2 on this? Ore even Black Ice from TLC? Thanks for your reaction! Regards fro Adri, The Netherlands

Hello Pan I hope you are having a great weekend. I am wondering if you can do a video comparing 303 Nano graphene vs Gyone can coat. I know they're completely different product but they both claimed a year of protection.
Excellent video Pan! PPF has a lot of great things happening! Now they have color changing PPF and stuff but still it protects the paint. Its not cheap so it makes sense to protect abd mainain it. Pan does the 911 turbo s have ppf?
@Pan The Organizer oh wow, it still looks like day one after yvan, Sylvie and yourself put on the roar coating. Its flawless, I don't know how you'll be able to top it
Hi Pan, what kind of product would you recommend in case the car is only partially protected with the PPF (front side). I would preferably want to use a single set of products to maintain both the PPF part and the rest of the car at the same time. Is ceramic coating possible to go over the PPF as well?
J’ai très apprécié cette vidéo je crois qu’elle est très pertinente pour moi mais 2 voiture on un PPF mais je ne comprend pas tout les détails parce que je ne parle pas Anglais penser vous la faire en français pour vos fan je suis sur que serait très apprécié je sais que sais beaucoup de travail. Merci
Once in a while, just like on paint. Not for every regular wash. Also, as some PPF can be different, check with your PPF installer what is recommended for your specific PPF.
Hi pan I’m having the front ppf done on my new. car when it arrives in a few weeks time. I currently use turtle wax hybrid solutions products to clean maintain my current car Is this ok to continue to use as I enjoy the washing and polishing process on my cars. Great videos thanks.
Hi Pan, awesome video as usualy. I have a question, when i aplied Gyon Can Coat the towels used to wipe and buff the ceramic i must trow away theose towels or after i finish i can wash the towels and use them again? Thank you in advance
I don’t really have an opinion as I don’t apply PPF on my cars. I recently replaced the factory PPF on my Porsche’s real wheel arches though and used XPEL. Video to come soon.
Great tips Pan! PPF is always a nice thing to have. I do have a question though. Will using CarPro Reset strip away or deteriorate Ceramic sealants like Hydr02 and Wet coat? I've been perfectly fine with GSF, however, $30 a bottle does get a bit expensive over time...
Hi Pan, Great video as usual. Just wondering is there any difference between Restart wash and PPF Wash from Gyeon? Sames as PPF Maintain and the almighty Wet Coat? Is the main difference is the product mainly develop for PPF due to the difference from PPF and Paint because how the product will "stick" to the surface?
I'm also having trouble finding the difference online, but it seems PPF Wash and Restart Wash serve the same propose, but PPF Wash is formulated to remove more of the contaminants that get embedded in PPF, while Restart is formulated for coatings/clear coat.
Is PPF Maintain Shampoo just a marketing product ? Any other options than Gyeon that contains iron removing technology Will it work the same if im using a normal shampoo like CarPro eraser + Iron remover on my maintenance washes?
Gyeon is a serious top tier brand. They don’t do marketing gimmicks. They have their Restart shampoo that also has light iron removing capabilities. But they only mention its use on “coated surfaces”, so you’d have to ask them if it can work on PPF. But if your vehicle is wrapped in PPF I would just get the PPF shampoo. Or keep it simple and get a pure shampoo like Gyeon Bathe. And use an iron remover once every 3-4 months or as needed depending on your level of iron contamination.

You would have to confirm with your PPF installer what you can or can't use on your PPF, as some PPF brands void the warranty if you don't use the protection product they sell.
Just wanted to comment on the ppf maintain longevity. I live in FL, garage kept, air conditioned, white vehicle, Xpel ppf. Without any sort of decon I get around 1-2 weeks. Maybe it'll get rained on 1-3 times, I don't bring it to work so it'll sit outside a shop or something, not all day otherwise it's in the garage, it does shed dirt and debris somewhat but nothing spectacular or to write home about. For a reference I put about 5k miles on the vehicle in one year so I don't drive too often. Full decon(strip wash, ppf wash, ironx with a synthetic clay bar, panel prep) I get 2-3 weeks out of it. VERY disappointing to be honest. I'll use the rest of the bottle but it would have been nice for the price to get something with a little more longevity. I won't be purchasing it again. That being said it really does make the car POP, especially for a white car. Some serious shiny candy look going on and very reflective. Hopefully you see this pan and the manufacturer.
If you want maximum durability, apply a PPF coating. There’s a limit you what sprays can do on PPF. Gyeon themselves only claim 6 weeks durability with this. And usually in the real world, you rarely reach full manufacturer’s claims, for many variables often discussed in my videos. A PPF specific coating should get you 1-2 years of protection. Then use the spray for maintenance. Same principles as for paint products. See my PPF coating tutorial here: th-cam.com/video/7RCgqdGrvrA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=7wQ86GrlqQ8_pt2V Welcome to my channel.

Thanks Richard. I thought I would shed some light on the topic, and make it easy to understand.
I am really happy with my Expel PPF and Gyeon Certified coating. I am only using Gyeon Bathe and Ceramic Detailer to maintain it and it looks amazing.
Hey, which ceramic detailer were you using? Are you still using that?
@ZingerPuffer Gyeon has Ceramic Detailer spray on bottle that you can buy. I just bought one. You can google it up.
Hi Pan, I had my black Tesla protected with PPF, and had ceramic coat applied at the same time. I have been using Mckee’s rinse less wash and Armor coat lite from Avalon King as a drying aid since I washmy car once a week. I also use this product as a maintenance polish once a month. Armor coat lite is really simple to remove and leaves a amazing shine and slickness. Thank you for giving me addition maintenance options. Keep up the great videos Pan!
Thanks Richard!
@Pan The Organizer Hi Pan, this was such a timely video, I recently sold my GLA45 and purchased a brand new Mercedes A45S it will be fully covered in ppf with a ceramic coating so exactly the video I needed to see at this point, thanks Pan 👍 Now I just have the long wait for delivery to get over, hopefully time goes quickly.
Hi, can we use Turtle wax hybrid graphene flex wax on ppf for maintenance purposes..
6:23 CarPro Eraser as shampoo? I think you wanted to say Reset? :)
Has anyone tried the graphene waxes on PPF? Like Turtlewax's new hybrid solutions? (Flex Wax, or Max Wax)
Hey Pan, I was wondering if you could make a video a little outside of your normal detailing. Could you try a segment showing the best tips and tricks for keeping a boat looking amazing?
It would be about the same as washing a car. They do have specific shampoo and sealants for boats as those have a different base coating, gel coat as to clear coat
@@johndinh2913 you will need different products as its always in contact with salt water !
So ppf maintain is same as gyron wet coat? İ have wet coat, ( orange bottle ) can i use it on ppf securely?
PPF Maintain has nothing to do with WetCoat. WetCoat is sprayed on a wet surfaced and rinsed off. Very different from a spray on wipe off product.
But yes, you can use WetCoat on PPF.
Very timely video for me. Just bought a vehicle with a PPF bra. Will have to pick up that quick detailer to protect it. Thanks from Long Island NY
Thanks Chris!
Another awesome episode of Paaannn the Organizer good friend
Thank you!!
Just had my car wrap in PPF and your videos came out just about right time for me, I will try to look for the product here .
Cool!
@@PanTheOrganizer I will ask the shop about their surface prep after delivery to have some base data, I just normal wash with some Meguairs speed detailing.
Informative video, thank you. I have a 2020 Sienna mini van that has PPF applied over Blizzard White and it shows dirt just under the edges on the hood, front fenders and sideview mirrors. Any way to remove that dirt or mildew from under the PPF?
Whomever installed it did a poor job. They should have wrapped it around the edges going under the hood and out of site.
You can try cotton swabs and alcohol
Just keep in mind that you want it sitting in the sun to get it to bond back to hood after you have cleaned…
Once those edges get damaged they’ll start collecting crap constantly
Merci!
Merci Bob!

Hi Pan! I recently came across your Chanel and also recently got my new car wrapped in XPEL Stealth (matte) PPF and Ceramic Coated, including on tire, break calipers ect, this video couldn’t be more timely so thank you. I have been looking at Gtechnic products initially vs these products that you mentioned, if I were to go with GTechnic would you be able to discuss which are also safe on PPF/Ceramic Coating, more so would you actually be able to do a full maintenance wash video of a car that has full PPF/Ceramic Coated as that I would love to see! Hope to hear from you in the comments!
Thanks but Gtechniq doesn’t have all the equivalent products in their lineup to my knowledge. You’d have to check their website and do some research.
Hey Pan, I have PPF and ceramic coatings on my car for about 1.3 years now. And I noticed, they've done a good job on damage protection etc, however, it doesn't shield them from water marks. it's a lot more obvious especially on the hood's PPF. I've washed my car weekly, and yeah, my country has a lot of rain. Almost raining every 1-2 days so it's quite impossible to keep the car dry all the time.. Any tips to solve this water marks problem?
I suggest Xpel Water Spot remover. It's designed for both PPF and ceramic-coated PPF. I use it after every winter to get rid of any traces of mineral deposits and salt. Just spray it on, let it sit for 30-60 seconds, then rinse off.
@@TheBreakfastLover Does that remove the ceramic coating?
@@SuperAnonymities it does not, as per Xpel (and on the bottle as well), it's intended to be used on both Xpel PPF, and Xpel PPF with Xpel Fusion ceramic coating.
It’s probably just like that CLR stuff you can use in the house for things like showers, shower heads, etc… but probably not as aggressive
@@07wrxtr1 correct, CLR has a pH of 2, which means it is 100x more acidic than Xpel Water Spot remover (which has a pH of 4). Thus CLR will strip most ceramic coatings, which can typically tolerate a pH as low as 3.
so timely since i just got my car back from getting wrapped yesterday and was about to look for maintenace/cleaning stuff.

I have used those Gyeon PPF products, work perfect 👍. Full hood PPF coated with HALO going on 2-years strong
Thanks for sharing your personal experience!
Halo is GTechniq. So that is the one you have? Have you used the Gyeon PPF coating one?
@@johns4407 I first used Carpro Skin then changed to Gtechniq HALO, BUT USED Gyeon polish and wash products for the PPF
Salut Pan! J’ai un Jeep avec des vitre de plastic (soft top) et je veux les polirs, protéger et je me demandais si les produit à polir pour PPF pourrait fonctionner ou s’il existe d’autre produit spécifique! Merci de nous partager ta base de connaissances!
Thank you for the details of the products.Any product you would recommend for waterless wash during the winter months to maintenance the ppf
Hi Pan, would it be ok to wash the whole car with the PPF wash from Gyeon if only the front bumper, fenders, hood, and mirrors have PPF? Or should I wash those with the PPF wash and then switch to my usual shampoo for the rest of the car? Thank you for all your super informative videos by the way, I’ve learned a ton through your videos.
Gyeon PPF Wash is pH neutral at 7.5, so it's safer than most general car shampoos.
I’ve just put Gtechniq Halo ceramic coating on my PPF on the door pillars. Time will tell if it helps, so far all seems good. Without a coating the PPF has been a pain to keep clean.
Yeah a coating really makes maintenance much easier.
I have got ceramic pro top coat on my ppf. I want to remove it and install another coating. How do i remove it?
Looks like the Gyeon products linked in the description no longer available for US customers?
Merci beaucoup pour les explications et le découpage complet de chaque étape. On y voit bien plus clair maintenant. 👍

I love the channel I am in New York and take all your advice on how to properly maintain a vehicle .here is what I have done to my truck .I had clear bra .008 cover my entire truck and had a covered with expel ceramic coating fusion plus .and glassparency which gets maintain by the installer once a year. I wash my truck once a week with adams meg foam .and use endless shine fallout iron remover .wipe it down with every wash with Geotech C2 liquid crystal .instead of wiping it down I like to use the griots ploy gloss that recently, showed on your channel, will I get the same or better results .you show two products, that caught my eye .griots foaming wash and foaming poly gloss I thought those to products together would might bring the best results .also purchase after your video wet coat which I will try on my wife car which is ceramic coated .I did get your reply on not stacking to many products on ceramic coatings .I would love to hear your advice to make sure that I am properly maintaining my truck .and since you are the master detailer I know that you will have the right answer. I am a long time viewer and love the channel there always so much detail that you put into your channel.and really would like your opinion on this subject
hi i have a question, its been 2 years now i have PPF applied on my car and on top of that i applied 2 layers of Geyon PPF coating, now i feel the hydrophobic properties have immensely diminished thus i want to get my car recoated, so my question is what to do? how do i remove the previous layer on a PPF car and install new layer? Is the procedure same for PPF coated car?
The only way to ensure 100% removal of a previous coating is by machine polishing. So a light polish and polishing pad should do the trick. You'll know you succeeded with the removal when the water won't bead anymore, and will simply be a flat pool of slow sheeting water.
The front of my car has PPF and the rear ceramic coating. I had it done before I found your channel! Next year, I might ceramic coat the PPF. But between now and then, can I use shampoos, cleaners, etc. for ceramic coatings on the PPF? Or PPF shampoos on the ceramic coating. This is just to clean my car every week or so. I guess what I'm asking, what productions for cleaning can be used for both. Thanks!
How did they turn out mate as I have same question
How does PPF Maintain compare to Wet Coat?
Maintain is more like Gyeon Cure. WetCoat is a spray on rinse off sealant.
It looks like many of the products are not available in the USA?
Yeah the Gyeon PPF stuff is hard to source within the USA, but you can still order from Canada in the links provided. Your exchange rate is so much more powerful than CAD dollars that it will cost peanuts for you to order.
So, no clay bar on ppf, even if gently aplyed in case of ink bubles?
Been a weekend warrior for detailing but now I just had a new car for the first time ever wrapped - but it’s a matte stealth (Llumar) and will be ceramic coated by the shop (not sure what product).
So I think everything I’ve been using and doing on my other car is out the window.
This video is no matte wrap specific so is there another video that speaks to that or can someone share products and processes
Matte paint, matte vinyl wraps and matte PPF all have the same maintenance, especially once ceramic coated. Here's my matte paint care tutorial: th-cam.com/video/eU8zg1lXvXY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=kO7FxghFfIZ5RLHu

@@PanTheOrganizerthank you so much. You are doing the lords work here, by far and away my favorite content on the topic
PPF Renew not available for US customers??
Yeah for some reason, I don't see it on CSW or Amazon websites in the USA.
Can you use CarPro Lift and CarPro Reset on PPF - should the concentration levels be adjusted?
CarPro didn't say anything against using those two soaps on PPF, so you should be fine.
@@PanTheOrganizer have you ever thought about code dating your video’s? 2024 E 20? Do you have a master list of them.
No as I have over 1000 videos at this point, and for TH-cam SEO and keywords, it's best to use the words for the title in a way that can increase reach and searchability, rather than episode numbers.
So that covers putting products on the ppf, but how about the washing process, and specifically, pressure washing?
You would wash your car the same way as a normal car. Never exceed 2000 psi with the pressure washer. And don’t spray too closely to the body.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks for the reply Pan, much appreciated. Some places say not to pressure wash at all, which wouldn't be ideal for me. Obviously avoid too much pressure, particularly near the edges, but unlike most other things in this hobby (illness) it's not really something we can learn about as we go, as if we get it wrong once, we damage our expensive ppf.
Anyway, thanks for all the advice on your channel 👍
Hi. Great video. Do you have a video actually showing how way to use these products on PPF ?
A few of them in this tutorial: th-cam.com/video/7RCgqdGrvrA/w-d-xo.html
For the rest, it's pretty much the same as regular paint. Maintenance is the same procedure (iron remover, extra paint protection with the ceramic spray, etc).
do you think I could simply just use P&S Beadmaker to coat the PPF for protection and shine ?
Yes, just keep in mind Bead Maker isn't used for long term protection. It just lasts 3-4 weeks on average. We usually use it as a topper over longer lasting protection, to boost gloss and slickness. As long as you're willing to apply Bead Maker regularly, no issues.
But the best would be to have a PPF coating, and then use Bead Maker as a maintenance type product.

Question about pressure washing the car, including the undercarriage. I have a Ryobi 2900 psi pressure washer and a Ryobi water broom rated to 3300 psi. My question is what is too high psi for the undercarriage and what psi would a 40 degree nozzle be. I'm guessing not the full 2900 psi. Thanks.
I always recommend using 1000-2000 psi max to wash cars
For PPF, it should be less than 1000 psi around the edges.
Can you use a pressure washer like a Ryobi 1800psi on a matte PPF? Thanks
Yes, absolutely
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks
Great videos as always btw 👍 Quick question? I have a vehicle that has a complete PPF all the car has been protected and it has been installed for about 3 years. It’s in great shape and I maintain it well. The vehicle has extremely low mileage and is kept in a garage quite a lot of the time.
Do you have to replace the PPF at some point as I have noticed some people say as the PPF ages it’s more difficult to remove it ? Is this correct. I am concerned about how long the PPF will last before it needs to be replaced for easy enough removal before it becomes too difficult to replace?
Any advice of information would be really appreciated
Thanks
Hey I was wondering I have the PPF evo. Can I apply that to a painted surface or my carbonfiber wing ?
Does the gyeon ppf wash work well in a faom cannon?
Gyeon states that "it can be used as a foam or as a traditional shampoo".
Hey is gyeon bug and grime safe to use on ppf?
Hows ceramic pro top coat for a ppf? Certified installer here in pakistan uses ceramic pro top coat on xpel
How long can bird droppings be left on before they leave a permanent stain?
I just got xpel ultimate plus installed and ceramic pro top coat. When can i use gyeon ppf renew?
Isot necessary to use ppf wash and maintain from gyeon or i can use any detailers or sealants like from kamikaze polish angel?
Hi Pan, can I clay bar PPF and what speed machine polish should I use?
In theory, yes you can clay PPF. However, you should be very careful as traditional clay bars are abrasive. Perhaps use a synthetic clay towel, that won't cause marring, something like this: amzn.to/3JHfrtG
And make sure you use a clay lubricant. For polishing, you'd use the same speeds as for paint. You start low to spread (speed 2) and polish using higher speeds (5 or 6) depending on what machine you have.
Always do some testing on an inconspicuous area first. Or hire a professional detailer if you're unsure of what you're doing.

Can you do a video on how to remove it after it's been on for a few years and what to do for the vehicle after you remove it....
It's funny you should ask, as I read your mind. Come back Wednesday at 9am EST for a video specifically on that topic... ;)
Pan, thanks for this. PPF isn't cheap so maintaining it properly is an issue. If I had to pick one it would likely be that Gtech Halo. But I have a question: my QX80 is a tad over a year old. Always garaged, maybe 6K miles a year. I understand about being careful of the PPF edges, but why would I not just use Turtle Wax ceramic spray followed by a graphene spray since I already have them, and, they're fairly easy to apply. I understand they may not last 2 years but as an alternative every 3-6 months, would that not work?
Yes that would work. As long as you protect the PPF, it's all good. :)
@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you.
👍🏻
Thats what I use all Turtle Wax Graphene Pro products and they work great! No need for ceramic coating as they are prone to water spotting and more difficult to remove.
So it would be problematic if I did 2 layers with the Evo PPF ceramic?
No benefit in doing that. You’d just be wasting product and run the risk of high spots
@@PanTheOrganizer Okay, thanks, I used it today and did just the one coat. Everything turned out great as far as I can tell. My first time doing ceramic. Seemed pretty easy to work with.
Do you need also to clean clay ceramic coating the area before ppf? To. Have better outcome??
I don’t understand your question. The car is washed, decontaminated, polished, and then the PPF is applied. The ceramic coating is only applied at the end, on top of the PPF.
Thanks for the video. I noticed there are some water spot shows on the ppf. Is any better way to remove it rather than polish? Cheers
You can start with a water spot remover first. You have to neutralize the minerals before attempting to polish.
If the water spots aren’t too old or haven’t started etching through the PPF, it’s possible the water spot remover on its own will solve your issues.
Here’s a very good water spot remover: bit.ly/3UO1UX4
Wash the car first, then use the water spot remover.

If the PPF doesn’t seem to peel on edges and hasn’t yellowed or discoloured, it should be fine.
So if my Caddy SUV has PPF only on the complete front end. So front bumper, fenders, side mirrors, and 81-0 inches back on the roof and the A-Pillars.
If I do the Halp Flex is it ok to put that Ceramic coating on the ragular clear coat along all the lones where the PPF meets the clear coat. Along the lines where PPF and clear coat meet.
Then can I do the rest of the car (no PPF) with normal ceramic coating? So alomg the borders of the PPF the two ceramics will overlap a little bit.
Yes that is fine.
Thanks.........@@PanTheOrganizer

Can PPF Renew be used with a hand applicator?
It would take for ever for little results. Polishing by hand is never a great idea.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks!
If I have a car that is fully PPFed and ceramic coated wouldn’t the Gyeon Ceramic Detailer be a better choice than Gyeon PPF Maintain?
Yes. Once ceramic coated, treat it like a coated vehicle.
if I go with a ceramic coat for my ppf, then for the aftercare should I follow the aftercare routine & products for ppf or ceramic coatings?
For ceramic coatings.

I know a guy at work that got his car wrapped And he removed it a few years later and the clear coat came off in the area's is that normal

Gyeon Matte, CarPro Skin and Gtechniq Halo can all be applied on matte and satin surfaces too, yes.
@@PanTheOrganizer ha ok thanks for the information, appreciate at it.
If I put a ceramic coat on PPF is the PPF maintain/wash needed? Or would I just use the bathe?
You would use Bathe. You would treat the vehicle as a ceramic coated vehicle at that point, not PPF. Since the coating sits on top of the PPF.
@@PanTheOrganizer thank you! I appreciate the response. Thank you for all your knowledge.

Is all DIY PPF pretty much equal today? I've seen 3 that I'm considering. Also, if you choose one with edges, how often do you think you need to "focus" on cleaning edges? Is this something I have to do literally every wash or quarterly or maybe twice a year?
Do you teach the training of wrap, ppf, car wash?
No unfortunately
Hi Pan, which one of those works on a matte PPF (Suntek) without adding any gloss? Thank you!
All the PPF coatings mentioned in this video won’t alter gloss on your matte PPF.

What about small rock chips and scratches in the PPF that are dark and look like a paint chip but aren't? Is there a way to make the damaged spot of film look any better?
If the film is damaged there’s no miracle in fixing it other than replacing it unfortunately.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks. Was hoping you knew of a trick to remove the dirt that seems to be trapped on top of the film at the point of impact. Probably my biggest complaint of PPF is that rock chips in the film still look like rock chips in the paint.

Hey Pan, say you were going to coat a car with Synchro Evo, and part of the car was PPF’d. Would you use the specific PPF coating for the PPF section or would you use Synchro on the entire car. The PPF is coat-able in general according to the manufacturer. Thanks!
Syncro on the entire car.

Hello Pan I hope you are having a great weekend. I am wondering if you can do a video comparing 303 Nano graphene vs Gyone can coat. I know they're completely different product but they both claimed a year of protection.
Great video. It appears that I have to order the products online. Are there any over the counter products that are helpful?
I always order online as I use specialty products.
Excellent video Pan! PPF has a lot of great things happening! Now they have color changing PPF and stuff but still it protects the paint.
Its not cheap so it makes sense to protect abd mainain it.
Pan does the 911 turbo s have ppf?
Only the factory PPF on the rear arches.
@Pan The Organizer oh wow, it still looks like day one after yvan, Sylvie and yourself put on the roar coating. Its flawless, I don't know how you'll be able to top it
Hi Pan, what kind of product would you recommend in case the car is only partially protected with the PPF (front side). I would preferably want to use a single set of products to maintain both the PPF part and the rest of the car at the same time. Is ceramic coating possible to go over the PPF as well?
If you applied a ceramic coating over all the exterior surfaces, treat it like a coated car. ;)
J’ai très apprécié cette vidéo je crois qu’elle est très pertinente pour moi mais 2 voiture on un PPF mais je ne comprend pas tout les détails parce que je ne parle pas Anglais penser vous la faire en français pour vos fan je suis sur que serait très apprécié je sais que sais beaucoup de travail. Merci
Would you use bilt hamber touchless on PPF considering it his ph level 11-12?
Once in a while, just like on paint. Not for every regular wash. Also, as some PPF can be different, check with your PPF installer what is recommended for your specific PPF.
Hi pan I’m having the front ppf done on my new. car when it arrives in a few weeks time. I currently use turtle wax hybrid solutions products to clean maintain my current car Is this ok to continue to use as I enjoy the washing and polishing process on my cars. Great videos thanks.
Yes
Can we apply your recommendations from ppf videos to gloss wraps? Else I would like to see a video on car wrap protection (wrap detailers / ceramic)
What applies to PPF usually also applies to vinyl wraps. :)
Hi Pan, awesome video as usualy.
I have a question, when i aplied Gyon Can Coat the towels used to wipe and buff the ceramic i must trow away theose towels or after i finish i can wash the towels and use them again?
Thank you in advance
Throw them away.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you very much for your advice and for your quick answer. You are the best!!!
@@ionutstefan8835or you can also use them to clean the wheel wells and for applying your tire coating/shine.
Which brand PPF do you think is best - hope you will say CeramicPro’s version as that’s what I’m planning on having installed on my new BMW
I don’t really have an opinion as I don’t apply PPF on my cars.
I recently replaced the factory PPF on my Porsche’s real wheel arches though and used XPEL. Video to come soon.
Great tips Pan! PPF is always a nice thing to have. I do have a question though. Will using CarPro Reset strip away or deteriorate Ceramic sealants like Hydr02 and Wet coat? I've been perfectly fine with GSF, however, $30 a bottle does get a bit expensive over time...
No Reset won’t hurt those.
Hi Pan, Great video as usual. Just wondering is there any difference between Restart wash and PPF Wash from Gyeon? Sames as PPF Maintain and the almighty Wet Coat? Is the main difference is the product mainly develop for PPF due to the difference from PPF and Paint because how the product will "stick" to the surface?
I'm also having trouble finding the difference online, but it seems PPF Wash and Restart Wash serve the same propose, but PPF Wash is formulated to remove more of the contaminants that get embedded in PPF, while Restart is formulated for coatings/clear coat.
Is PPF Maintain Shampoo just a marketing product ?
Any other options than Gyeon that contains iron removing technology
Will it work the same if im using a normal shampoo like CarPro eraser + Iron remover on my maintenance washes?
Gyeon is a serious top tier brand. They don’t do marketing gimmicks.
They have their Restart shampoo that also has light iron removing capabilities. But they only mention its use on “coated surfaces”, so you’d have to ask them if it can work on PPF.
But if your vehicle is wrapped in PPF I would just get the PPF shampoo.
Or keep it simple and get a pure shampoo like Gyeon Bathe. And use an iron remover once every 3-4 months or as needed depending on your level of iron contamination.
Thank you so much Pan !!@@PanTheOrganizer

Can I use meguiars nxt wax or chemicals guys (mirror) wax on self healing ppf (stek brand)?
You would have to confirm with your PPF installer what you can or can't use on your PPF, as some PPF brands void the warranty if you don't use the protection product they sell.
Does the GYEON PPF Wash work for matte PPF as well? I can´t get the Dr. Beasleys shampoo you recommend in your matte specific video.
You’d have to ask Gyeon
Just wanted to comment on the ppf maintain longevity. I live in FL, garage kept, air conditioned, white vehicle, Xpel ppf. Without any sort of decon I get around 1-2 weeks. Maybe it'll get rained on 1-3 times, I don't bring it to work so it'll sit outside a shop or something, not all day otherwise it's in the garage, it does shed dirt and debris somewhat but nothing spectacular or to write home about. For a reference I put about 5k miles on the vehicle in one year so I don't drive too often. Full decon(strip wash, ppf wash, ironx with a synthetic clay bar, panel prep) I get 2-3 weeks out of it.
VERY disappointing to be honest. I'll use the rest of the bottle but it would have been nice for the price to get something with a little more longevity. I won't be purchasing it again. That being said it really does make the car POP, especially for a white car. Some serious shiny candy look going on and very reflective.
Hopefully you see this pan and the manufacturer.
If you want maximum durability, apply a PPF coating. There’s a limit you what sprays can do on PPF. Gyeon themselves only claim 6 weeks durability with this. And usually in the real world, you rarely reach full manufacturer’s claims, for many variables often discussed in my videos.
A PPF specific coating should get you 1-2 years of protection. Then use the spray for maintenance. Same principles as for paint products.
