Always keep this in mind: carbon ceramic rotors are pretty sensitive to cleaning products. They are porous as well, meaning cleaning products will soak deep into the rotor. Using the wrong products on carbon ceramic rotors will lead to discoloring, impact brake performance and potentially severely damage the material itself.
The reality is that wheels sporting carbon ceramic brakes are the easiest wheels to clean. Carbon ceramic brakes produce virtually zero brake dust. What’s on the wheels will be what’s on your paint: normal road dirt from driving around.
I don’t recommend the use of any fallout removers (the ones that turn red/purple) on your wheels unless you fully remove them from the car. If you remove the wheels, you can use any product you like with no worry of hurting the rotors.

One of the BEST tricks I've learned from you Pan is adding/topping my clean wheels with WETCOAT , when you suggested it years and years ago. Still doing this little trick to this day!!
Great to hear! Yeah it totally makes cleaning the wheels easier and keeps them looking cleaner for longer! Good job Mike!
Wait! What is wet coat?
Yes and Yes. Reminds me, I need to order more. I have been Dialing back the P&S Brake Buster as I feel at the ratio my son and I have been using, in turn is shortening the life of the Wet Coat...
@@hulabird gyeon wet coat is sio2 based spray and rinse sealant suitable for all of the exterior of your car , maybe not on the tyres but wheels , glass , paint , plastic and chrome . Pan already put a link of the product in the description , and durability is upto 3 months and takes minutes to apply
@@ImranAli-rp4kd thx for the info
Been waiting for this exact vid! Thanks!
Hope you enjoyed it!
On my non signed in account, YT just asked me about this video. I marked the biggest smile I could and as many boxes as were relevant. Love what you do bru!
Ah thanks for the support man! Much appreciated! 😁🙏🏻
Fantastic tutorial, well explained and well done. Hope millions of people can improve the appearance and longevity of their tires & rims from this wonderful video. 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks so much!
Thanks for all the great information and demo’s.
Thanks for the positive feedback Kenneth!
Great Video Pan! Great to see another Aventurine Green Porsche owner. My Carrera classics are easy to clean and you are correct about Ceramic coating. Makes a HUGE difference.
Thanks!! How did you discover my channel by the way?
Love all your videos Pan! Keep them coming!
Thanks Chris!
Another great video, I’m compiling a list of products I need, thank you 👍
You're so welcome!
Thanks Pan for the tips, great video as always. Your Porsche is looking fantastic.
Thanks Paul 👍 Come back on Saturday to see a special awesome spring cleaning tutorial with new products on my Porsche! I called it the ultimate guide to spring cleaning. :)
Hi Pan!
As always great video, well presented and explained!
👏🤛👍
Thanks!! 👍🏻
Another grate and instrutive video, Pan! Congratulations!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Another great lesson from you, Pan. 👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it! Have a great weekend Jimmy! Did you do your spring maintenance? What is your routine and products you like?
Hi Pan, the porsche is looking great as always, thanks for the great tips on cleaning the wheels, I always use P&S brake buster ever since you first reviewed it on your channel, keep up the great work 👍👍
Thanks 👍
I enjoyed Pan👌
Thanks David!
As You always do, the tips, tricks and techniques were given in this fine video. Very educational.
I love CarPro Reset! I've never used it for wheels... usually BrakeBuster or Adam's gets the nod there. Reset is an awesome product for snow foam and bucket washing. I have 5 gallons of Adam's shampoo that I've barely touched!
Have a good rest of the week! Thank You, Pan!
Have a great week! And come back Saturday for a MEGA video! ;)
@@PanTheOrganizer thanks! I'm there!!
Def enjoyed this video.
I'm doing my best to learn how to protect my ceramic coated chrome wheels and how use the best materials to clean them
Thanks for the feedback! How did you discover my channel by the way?
Great video as always and love the advice of pre-spraying the vehicle with a rinseless solution (McKee's is my favorite) so that hopefully those against rinseless see some of its capabilities and become more comfortable with the idea.
Thanks Steven! Rinseless washes are great as a pre-treatment on a vehicle, as they will encapsulate loose dirt and debris and add lubrication on the surface.
So even if someone doesn't use the rinseless wash to clean their car (I still use the traditional two bucket system), using a rinseless wash as a pre-treatment before washing is a great idea.
@@PanTheOrganizer I've been doing a hybrid wash method of pre-treatment, rinse off, contact wash with rinseless, and dry to get the benefits of both methods without using as much water as the two bucket.
We're getting a Turbo S next year. Thanks for the infos about cleaning it. Really enjoyed the vid.
Cool! What color are you getting?

Great Video...Thanks
You are welcome!
As a former racer those are some gorgeous rotors which probably makes your seatbelt lock up when you brake hard! Great advice on using ph neutral materials on those beautiful rotors. Thank you for the video.
Hi Neil. Yeah you are 100% right! This car accelerates like crazy (we measured 2.3s 0-60mph) and needs to brake just as hard. Those huge ten piston calipers really are some of the best braking performances I have seen to date. Porsche is always known for their excellent braking systems, and this carbon ceramic latest gen setup is at the top of their pack.
@@PanTheOrganizer Enjoy the awesome acceleration as the zero to sixty time is insanely fast. Gorgeous car you have Pan!
Thanks again Neil!! The launch control is so violent, it gets people's jaws to drop every single time and they search for a grab handle to hold on for dear life!! HAAHAHAH
Always enjoy these and you've taught me a lot Pan! Many thanks from the West Coast.
Glad you like them! What's your favourite video on my channel so far Blaise?
@@PanTheOrganizer your detailing 101 videos are my go tos. So much knowledge in them, you've definitely helped me kick my detailing game up a few levels. I also appreciate that you're a fellow Canadian that understands road salts and winter conditions etc
Awesome thanks for the feedback!! Cheers to a fellow Canadian!
Thank you Pan for showing us an alternative to Brake Buster. I've been wanting to find a secondary wash solution for those not so dirty wheels and CarPro Reset looks like a decent option. I'd love to get in the habit of using HydrO2 Lite too because the next wash is most likely more enjoyable! Those ProLock Milspec power cords are amazing!
😁👍🏻
Awesome 👏 video Pan those wheels are shining spot on proper thing Pan lol 😂 and boosting it was great Pan hands down that video was amazing I really enjoyed it big time much love have a bless evening Pan 🙏🙏🙏💯💯💯💯🤙🤙👍👍👍👌👌👌
👍🏻👍🏻
Incredible work Pan as always! Those calipers and rotors on your Turbo S are MASSIVE😱.
Yes they are! :) It accelerates so quickly it also need the most powerful brakes to have equal stopping power. These are the biggest brakes and calipers ever fitted to a 911 by Porsche! :)
@@PanTheOrganizer Exactly, 650 finest German horses require serious brakes😁. Beautiful car, in my opinion the 992 generation of 911's is the best one yet.
I agree!! It's the best one yet.
I would love to see some Stjärnagloss content in the near future! I am considering picking up Matta a Matte Finish shampoo and Mörk detailer for wheel cleanup.
Great video, Pan. My process is almost identical to yours. I have an Audi RS6 Avant, and the massive calipers on the front make it difficult to use the EZ detail brush, as it got caught behind the dust shield the first time I used it. I bought the smaller version, and have had no problems since!
Thanks for sharing Ken!
Yes! Been waiting for another video showcasing the Porsche!
More to come! Come back this Saturday for my ultimate spring maintenance video. ;)
@@PanTheOrganizer 👌 will do. Love that color and how unique it is!
Thanks!! I get comments about it everywhere I go. Such a unique and classy spec. I have my girlfriend to thank for the color choice. She's the one who pointed out how original and classy it would look!
@@PanTheOrganizer that's awesome! Great choice!
👍👍 Vital info.
Thank you!
Great video Pan, great advice from a pro.👏👏👌
Thanks Mann! Glad to see you are always here faithful to my channel. 😁👍🏻
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks Pan this is my favorite channel ❤
Thank you so much! Is there any topic you would like me to cover in a future video?
Thanks for the valuable information Pan.
I always wondered what winter tires you are using?
Always appreciate your time you put in your videos.
Best wishes
They are the Goodyear mud and snow tires from the Porsche winter wheels + tires set. I don't know what exact model though.
Thanks. Interesting how the dealership used Goodyear. Must be fun to drive in snow.
Really enjoy your content
Honestly, it's the best car I have driven in winter from all the cars I have owned. So fun!
Awesome video and tutorial good friend. Car lookn amazing. FYI still waiting 4 my test drive. Just sayn.lol.
Heheheh thanks Richard! If you're ever in my neck of the woods, I'll give you a ride for sure!
Love the video and the car!!!
Thanks Juan!
Hey pan have you used any product by duracoatingtechnology
Not yet
Again a good video, I'm one of your follewers! I have an idea for the next video: what do you think about cleaning and protect the under side of the car? 😎
I know that some detailer center starting with this treatment.
I don't have a lift or the equipment for that unfortunately. But I did a video on how to clean the undercarriage here: th-cam.com/video/2fOEaNOGTFI/w-d-xo.html
Thanks Pan; very helpful video. For ceramic coatings, have you run into issues with water spotting? Particularly on PPF. And what’s best way to remove? I’ve tried water spot remover and diluted vinegar but didn’t work. Other than polishing, I only found pouring hot water or steaming on the film is the only method that worked. What’s been your experience?
I don't have water spotting issues where I live, plus I use deionized water to wash cars. Zero minerals, so zero water spots. But come back on Saturday for my spring cleaning tutorial, and you'll see a product in action that is designed for that. Super easy to use. Stay tuned!
Nice car and nisse job....just the best chanel for detail....💪💪
Thanks Jose! 🙏🏻
Nice, ceramic brakes not used in many cars especially those that dont see the track, but good to know.
Thank you

Oh cool !!
Hi Pan - what is your suggestion if I should use iron removers for White: Porsche Surface Coated Brakes found on my Taycan.
Loved the video! Weekend warrior here. I always clean my tires then clean the rest of the car (thanks to you). I use Gyeon Wet Coat on the whole car and the wheels/tires at the end. Is that the right time to do it or should I apply the wet coat to the wheels/tires right after completing them and before doing the rest of the car?
You can wait until you’re done washing the car and rinsing before applying WetCoat, but you can also apply it immediately after cleaning the wheels. It doesn’t matter. What ever makes more sense in your wash routine.
Great video. I need to purchase that soft microfiber brush. 👍
Thanks! Yeah I love thag brush. Link in the description under the video. ;)
@@PanTheOrganizer Yes sir👍😉
Another great one and still applicable to all wheels. @Pan, any chance you could consider doing a spring video on how to "rejuvenate your ceramic coating - after winter" video??? Looks like you guys still have road salts in Canada but it would be much-loved if that's possible 😊
I must be reading your mind! :). Come back Saturday for my ultimate spring maintenance tutorial for ceramic coated cars. ;)
@@PanTheOrganizer Your the best bro, I'll definitely watch it first thing Saturday then. I did my best to compile multiple videos of yours last week to figure out how to best rejuvenate my ceramic coating and it was hodge podgy. So after seeing a dedicated vid on this, I'll try it on the weekend roadster 👌🏽
Great video. Specialized video for sure. How about another specialized video for doing convertible soft tops? Clean and protect. Very hard to find on detailer channels.
Thank you! Yeah convertibles are not a popular pick in my area, as we are in winter months pretty much 6 months in the year. We're in May and we still have near freezing temperatures at night... So I rarely get to detail convertibles. But if I do in the coming year, I will make a video for sure.
Do you drive a convertible?
@@PanTheOrganizer I'm Southern Ontario and I bought one for my wife last summer. She drives it year round but mostly just Apr-Nov will be 95% of the km. It was only two years old with 7K on it but left outside to the elements. Had paint correction and then ceramic coat put on, but I'm concerned about doing the top without some education. Buying this car is what got me watching your channel for the last 8 months. I'm sure I could arrange a trip to Montreal for a donor video car. :)
Hi Pan, greetings from malaysia~ur fav fan on detailing.. Another great and informative tutorial. just asking if u do detailing to the tyre fender as well? as recently i came across CG barebones which makes the fenders like new.. appreciate your advise.
My fender wells are ceramic coated with CarPro DLUX. :)
Hi Pan love your videos. 🥰 i have a steel rotors should i spray iron remover on the wheel before cleaning it ? or after the wheel get clean? . And how ofter should i use iron on wheels? Thank you Pan
It’s aways best to clean the surface first and then use an iron remover. That way the product can focus on removing iron contamination instead of also having to fight dirt and grime.
Awesome video Pan. Can we use the same products for non-carbon ceramic brakes? Green Star & P&S break buster & a PH neutral shampoo has been my go-to products when it comes to cleaning wheels & tires. However, I was wondering if you would clean wheels first prior to the engine bay or vice versa? If it is not too much to ask for, is it possible for you to update a video on engine bay detail? Anyways, thanks again for all the amazing content. I just love watching your videos.
Thanks Urvish. Yes you can use the same products to clean wheels with regular metal rotors. For the engine bay detailing, I already have quite a few tutorials, and the most recent one is the most up to date here: th-cam.com/video/R5ZbroMTULM/w-d-xo.html
If I'm doing a full car detail, including the engine bay, I will start with the engine bay, and then do the wheels, and then the rest. I show all of this in this video: th-cam.com/video/0lC9uyKXs8Q/w-d-xo.html
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks so much :)
My pleasure!
Pan I just can't get over the size of the calipers and rotors. Tremendous. Wow. That is one sweet car.
I just picked up Gyeon Wet Coat. Wanna give it a try. How long can you expect protection to last? I know it's a subjective question, but a ballpark figure.
Very good video.
Thanks Kim. Yeah those are the biggest brakes Porsche has ever fitted on a 911. Massive 10 piston calipers to help bring this beast to a stop quickly.
WetCoat and HydrO2 typically last 2-3 months on wheels.
Since Brake Buster is PH10, is it safe to use on wheels, or better to dillute 3:1 in a Marlolex foamer? Also I would be very dubious about using a silicon based product on or near the rotors
I use Brake Buster both diluted (in a foaming pump sprayer) and undiluted (in its original sprayer bottle) and both work well.
Would koch chemie gsf would be also safe to wash carbon ceramic brakes as well? Because they also have ph neutral as reset
Yes.
Have you done any rv/5thwheel cleaning/ polishing videos??
Absolutely! A big one here: th-cam.com/video/OCUWBbPgu8M/w-d-xo.html
Hey Pan, great and informative video for carbon ceramic brakes. I Remebered Jason from Chicago Auto pros also saying this once before. As a brand new detailer, how do you different between normal and carbon ceramic brakes? tried looking online but couldn't find any info
You can tell by the way the discs look. And normally they will be on very expensive cars.
You can also just ask the owner of the vehicle when they bring the car in. If you see it’s a Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, BMW, Audi, Mercedes, McLaren, etc just ask if they are equipped with carbon ceramic brakes.
@@PanTheOrganizer thanks Pan for the info 😊
What do you prefer pan carpro hydro or wetcoat hard choice 🤔
They are both pretty similar in my opinion.
Pan as usual great Content, any discount codes you have for a CARZILLA? Thanks
I don’t have any discount codes unfortunately.
Ok thank you
Hi pan like this video IV now catched up with video now roll on for the one on sat .
See that white car with the bird droppings ya pan detail that car ha ha
All the best pan big hello to the family an your dog

Cool 👍 I hope you are doing well Stewart. With spring finally here, let's enjoy life and the nice weather!
@@PanTheOrganizer yes pan I'm doing ok I do hope thing with you an your family are well as can be say hello to the family pan yes lov to come to Canada an meet an your family that be a nice thing to do all the best pan
Here I am again with rinseless method questions haha. Is multi x carpro safe for this? I recently started to apply multi x as foam on the wheels the scrub with brushes and wipe off the wheel with a towel soaked in onr
Yes that's fine. Same goes for Optimum Power Clean. Many use those APCs to clean wheels and tires before doing a rinseless wash on the paintwork with ONR or McKee's 37 N-914.
@pan what can I use to clean gloss black rims? Thanks for the content and all the effort you put into your videos
I like to use microfiber brushes and mitts on gloss black and sensitive wheels. This is what I use:
Brush: bit.ly/2Yu77Ju
Mitt: bit.ly/3doe4CY
I’m sorry I meant for a Spray Cleaner? .. thank u so much!
I use P&S Brake Buster on my Porsche 911 Turbo S wheels and they are mostly gloss black. I work in a controlled environment. Avoid using it in direct sunlight or on hot wheels and you should be good to go.
But most of the time, just your normal pH neutral shampoo will do, in a separate wheel bucket of course. And once every other week use a dedicated wheel cleaner like Brake Buster.
I made a good battle video about good wheel and tire cleaners here: th-cam.com/video/jfYZh1qB1LY/w-d-xo.html

Hey pan, do you know if ceramic coating fluid is flammable because friend from us is planning to fly one home for me to belgium ;) the one you suggested
That’s a case by case situation. Some are, some aren’t. Tell him to read the label or instructions. It’s probably written if it is. “Danger, flammable”
@@PanTheOrganizer its the duraslic ds 1500 extreme so could you have a look as my friend is a girl so 😉 and looked on the website but no mention or photo to zoom
I was waiting for this type of video for awhile! Thanks Pan 👍👍
My detailer told me that there was no problem using Iron X on CCB's, because it"s not alcalin.
He even said that Aston Martin is using Iron X on their racing cars, equipped with CCB's, what are your thoughts on this ?
I prefer to be safe and use regular Gyeon car shampoo with a mit on my ceramic coated wheels.
I personally don't recommend using iron removers on wheels with CCB's. You can "technically" use an iron remover as most of them are pH neutral (like CarPro IronX). They only become slightly acidic when the reaction happens on the wheels with the ferrous particles. But it's best if you remove the wheels first before doing a thorough cleaning with an iron remover if you absolutely want to use one. That way you won't affect the rotors.
But again, there's no real point in using an iron remover when you have carbon ceramic discs, as they don't release iron particles much, if any at all depending on the blend in the rotor.
Always keep this in mind: carbon ceramic rotors are pretty sensitive to cleaning products. They are porous as well, meaning cleaning products will soak deep into the rotor. Using the wrong products on carbon ceramic rotors will lead to discoloring, impact brake performance and potentially severely damage the material itself.
The reality is that wheels sporting carbon ceramic brakes are the easiest wheels to clean! Carbon ceramic brakes produce virtually zero brake dust. What’s on the wheels will be what’s on your paint: normal road dirt from driving around.
I hope this helps.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you so much for clarifying! Your knowledge is really amazing! I'm not using Iron X as I prefer to be careful (CCB's are really expensive to replace).
May I ask you a last question : the only "powerful" product I'm using is Gyeon Foam (pre-wash) and I would like to know if it could harm the CCB's ?
How can I find out the level of PH ?
Gyeon Foam is perfectly fine for all surfaces, even if it's pH 12 (alkaline). To clean the actual wheels, you could use CarPro Reset (like I do) or Gyeon Bathe.
@@PanTheOrganizer I really appreciate your feedback, Pan! I'm using Bathe for wheels and car, as a shampoo and also Bathe+ to boost hydrophobicity. .
;) My pleasure. What's your favourite video on my channel so far, by the way?
Hi Pan, my car is using the normal disc brake (I don't know what it's called). I always have problem with whole surface looks rusty when in contact with water. Using CarPro Iron X will change it to purple color, but once I rinse it off, the surface still looks very much rusty. The next day when I need to use the car, the moment I release the brake, I can hear a bang on the brake (it's like the brake is sticking on the disc). Is this normal to see those rusty surface? It's kinda annoying that the whole car is cleaned, but the disc brake looks brown and rusty. Haha.
Hi Steve. You have traditional steel rotors (made from iron). Yes it's totally normal to get what we call "flash rust" or surface rust on them after washing your car.
To help prevent that, you have two classic options:
1) As soon as you're done with the final rinse, drive up and down your driveway while applying the brakes. This should dry them quickly. Then dry your car as per usual. That should prevent rust from forming.
2) As soon as you're done with the final rinse, you can spray Hyde's Serum Rustopper directly on the discs, that will help prevent that surface rust from forming. Here's a link to the product: bit.ly/3vKxEA8
I hope this helps.
Incroyable vidéo mon cher Pan, j'ignorais que les freins céramiques demandaient des traitements spécifiques. Existe t-il des pneus hiver pour la Porsche ? C'est une question que je me pose car ce sont des pneumatiques spécifiques me semble t-il ? Merci à toi 👍👍👍
Les pneus et jantes dans la vidéo étaient justement mon ensemble d'hiver. Il est très rare de trouver des pneus de cette taille et configuration en effet, alors Porsche vend les ensembles d'hiver directement. 20 pouces en avant et 21 pouces en arrière.
J'ai un deuxième ensemble de pneus et jantes pour l'été. Ce sont le même style de jantes, mais un ensemble dédié pour les beaux mois. :)
@@PanTheOrganizer merci Pan 👌🙋♂️
Hi Pan , great content , btw , what kind of nozzle do you use on your pressure washer gun? And a topic on your garage floor
Are you happy with , what are your recommendations do’s and don’t
Thanks
I use a 40 degree tip on my Mosmatic gun.
And I love my garage floor (polyurea coating). I had that in my previous home and can’t live without.
Impact and chemical resistant, anti-slip, and sooooo easy to maintain. Just pressure rinse it and you’re done. Also, I’ll use a pH neutral shampoo for a yearly thorough cleanup.
@@PanTheOrganizer thanks any brand for the polyurethane coating ? Thanks
I had a team of professionals from a company called "Beton Surface" install their proprietary coating. I talk about it in my garage tour video here: th-cam.com/video/gyehNOd44SY/w-d-xo.html
Thats how I wash my wheels, I really don't like using detail brushes on black gloss surfaces as you'll get swirls, a noodle sponge or mitt is what I'd use- always thinking about ways to actively reduce swirls and marring. After winter, do you pull the wheels off and get under and clean off any built up road salts? Would make a great video 👍
I've got steel brake discs and use Bilt Hamber Atom Mac this prevents rust flashing after water contact 👍
I don’t remove the wheels myself as it needs specialist tools. My wheels are special Porsche center lock wheels.
I can still do a thorough clean with my pressure washer and brushes. Plus my fender wells are ceramic coated which really helps to keep them clean and makes them easier to clean if needed. ;)
@@PanTheOrganizer You should have the special centre lock tool in your car, its reasonably simple to remove that type of nut. You just need a jack and some blocks 👍
Yeah, I won't be doing that. LOL I have seen my friend Matt (Obsessed Garage) do it a few times on his GT3 RS, GT4, etc and it's not as simple as it seems. And he has a car lift. He now sells a tool that costs $6500 USD that can remove and tighten center locks. This one: bit.ly/3vMyH2k
So perhaps I'll get that one day.
I like to snow foam up the wheels while pre-washing the paint work. Since you said to avoid cleaners that are far from pH neutral would you say to avoid getting a snow foam such as Bilt Hamber TouchLess on the wheels of a car with ceramic brakes?
Not for weekly washed but once in a while no problem.
@@PanTheOrganizer Cheers!
How did you discover my channel by the way?
@@PanTheOrganizer Last summer after I bought my first car (Toyota Celica T-Sport) I watched ChrisFix's video on how to "Super Clean" a car. Then I started binge watching all of his content on car cleaning and repair. A while after that I starting watching all the content from the Meguiar's UK channel. Then you must have appeared in my recommended videos.
I've gone back in my TH-cam history and the first video of yours I watched was "What's better? Wax, sealant or ceramic coating?". Followed by:
"HOW TO WASH YOUR CAR LIKE A PRO!!",
"ULTIMATE CAR WASH STARTER KIT FOR $150"
and "ULTIMATE INTERIOR CAR DETAILING KIT FOR $200".
At some point after that I discovered Jon from the Forensic Detailing Channel (who I know you speak to) which is where I found out about Bilt Hamber. You and Jon are probably the two people who I watch most in the detailing space at the moment.
Hi Pan, would it not be easier to lift the car up and remove the whole wheel so you can clean the entire surface? but for sure you can’t do that all the time:) anyway this looks amazing greetings from Holland and onto the next pro tips!!👍🏻👍🏻
I wash my car twice weekly so it’s absolutely not an easy thing to do to lift the vehicle and remove the wheels every time. Nobody does that.
Plus, my car has special center lock wheels which requires specialty tools and procedures to remove.
And just for the amount of time you’d waste removing wheels every time it’s counterproductive.
I can assure you that my wheels are perfectly clean when I’m done cleaning them. ;)
Everywhere I've read, it says you're not supposed to spray any silica, waxes or harsh cleaners on carbon ceramic rotors. Supposedly this ruins the rotors braking capabilities because they are so porous it will seep into the cracks and never be the same. Isn't carpro HydrO2 lite a silica spray?
Not to question your expertise but I'd really like to know as I have CCBs on my GM car.
Welcome to my channel. You discovered one of the biggest car detailing channels on TH-cam as we surpassed 855,000 subscribers and 108 million views! I have been detailing for 25 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 lots of misconceptions about carbon ceramic rotors. Most car manufacturers state to only clean wheel with a gentle pH neutral shampoo as they don't know what products people will use, so they want to avoid people using strong acid based wheel cleaners on them. So it makes sense for the manufacturer to recommend an "one size fits all" approach so that idiots don't ruin their wheels.
But when you know what you're doing, and you use appropriate products and methods, there are no worries. I have been using my methods for years on carbon ceramics, including my own Porsche 911 Turbo S, and never once had an issue. And everyone I know that does the same is in the same boat. My friend Matt from Obsessed Garage has a 911 GT3, had a previous 911 GT3 RS, had a GT4 and a BMW M3 with carbon ceramics, uses the same methods and products, and also never had issues.
Most of the time, as those discs generate little to no brake dust, all you need really to clean your wheels is a pH neutral shampoo. But using a dedicated wheel and tire cleaner like P&S Brake Buster is also perfectly fine when used correctly.
I would avoid using acid based wheels cleaners (like Meguiar's Wheel Brightener) on those types of wheels though, and never work in direct sunlight.
Amazing video! To your knowledge Are any of the products you used today available in Canadian tire?
Not to my knowledge. But you can easily order online through the links in the description. I always order online. Specialty products aren't available in big box stores.
@@PanTheOrganizer good to know, thank you.
My pleasure. How did you discover my channel by the way?
@@PanTheOrganizer sorry for the delayed response. I think I found it just by random, I really enjoy your content! I did detailing myself for a while in Toronto and it was fun but finding good products were always an issue. Now that TH-cam is bigger I found you and I’m glad that I have you telling me about the best products to use on my car.
Got myself a metro sidekick on the way for outside the car and the Metro ED 500 for inside the car. Getting all a few marolex sprayers next month. The goal is to use everything you teach us about products to assemble a perfect lineup so when I buy a new car I can keep the car new for as long as possible
Hey Pan…hope you are well and staying safe. I know you are talking about brakes and cleaning them. I had a question on chemical decontaminating the paint to prep for ceramic coating. How often should you use iron x or tar x on our vehicles? Thanks I’m advance 😊
Once every 3 to 4 months for the iron remover, or as needed depending on your level of brake dust contamination.
For tar removers, use them only on a “as needed” basis. Meaning if you see some tar deposits.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks Pan…appreciate it.
My pleasure David. Hey what's your favourite video on my channel so far?
@@PanTheOrganizer I would have to say two videos. Your best products for 2021 and the how to prep and coat your vehicle with ceramic coatings.
Je me rends encore plus compte avec mes petites années d'expérience qu'en fait que le choix du nettoyeur haute pression change l'expérience. Mon karscher K5 est genial mais pouvoir tenir le Pistolet à une main pour nettoyer les brosses c'est un détail mais ça change toute l'expérience de lavage 👍manque plus qu'à économiser pour prendre ce nettoyeur et aussi avoir les mêmes freins 😆
😁👍🏻
@pantheorganizer pour les produit pour enlever les insect a tu des prefere sont t'il aussi fort que les tar et iron remover a quelle intervalle ont peu les utuliser et ont les utulise avant le pre lavage ?
Mon produit pour insectes préféré est celui-ci: bit.ly/3PMsISW
Je fais le pré-lavage au canon à mousse et je rince. Ensuite, je vaporise le produit insectes sur la carrosserie, je laisse agir, puis je procède au rinçage. Ensuite je fais le lavage du véhicule comme d'habitude. Le produit pour insectes aide à ramollir les résidus d'insectes et faciliter le lavage par la suite.
Tu peux aussi vaporiser le produit d'insectes avant le pré-lavage. Ça n'a plus ou moins d'importance.
@@PanTheOrganizer merci de ta reponse bonne journée
👍🏻
Great video now I am not afraid of damaging my wheels.
Have you thought about doing a review of garden hose nozzles that will last for those of us who have not worked their way up to a pressure washer?
Yeah I presented my high end garden hose and nozzle kit in this video: th-cam.com/video/AC5noPvHiEg/w-d-xo.html
It's the last garden hose and nozzle you'll ever need.
@@PanTheOrganizer thanks so much
My pleasure Harold! How did you discover my channel by the way? I don't remember asking.
@@PanTheOrganizer I did a search on TH-cam and found you. I enjoy your scientific approach evaluating products and equipment. There are so many out there it can be confusing.

Hey Pam I got a quick question? Will the ceramic spray Hurt the rotors or the brake pads? I have just regular rotors and brake pads, but I’ve heard that if the chemicals attaches it selve to the rotors or the brake pads it could mess up your breaking performance, just a quick question something that I’ve heard around
It has absolutely no effect here on the brakes. I have been using this for years on all types of wheels and never had issues with braking.
@@PanTheOrganizer awesome 👍thank you so much Pan, I greatly appreciate you getting back to me 🙏
My pleasure Joe! What's your favourite video on my channel so far, by the way?
@@PanTheOrganizer so far I gotta say and what first come to mind is….actually there’s 2, the tutorial you did with your brother, about interior Detaling and the one about the stuff you carry in the trunk of your car, but there’s so many I’ve enjoyed it’s hard to chose my favorite ones, you know what I mean…. lol
Thank you so much Pan for all of your help and guidance
Salut Pan..... super Channel..... Question. Comment faire pour vraiement nettoyer mon BedLiner sur mon F-150. C'est comme un caotchou appliquer directement sur la carosserie et non un insert en plastique. As-tu une solution miracle??? Continue ton excellent contenu.
Merci André! Bienvenue sur ma chaîne. Tu peux utiliser le shampoing pH neutre comme pour la peinture, mais brosser avec une brosse microfibre comme celle-ci: bit.ly/3FkOuZs
Elle est aussi parfaite pour laver des SUV et camions, car elle est extensible et permet d'atteindre des endroits plus difficiles d'accès. Je la présente dans cette vidéo: th-cam.com/video/rc-8j0fKp9Y/w-d-xo.html
Hey Pan carbon ceramic brakes was beyond my reach 😂
??
Just kidding
Do not use high alkaline cleaner and yet p&s brake buster is ok? 😅Correct me if I am wrong but based on the sds this is ph 11. I have not seen a wheel and TIRE cleaner that is ph neutral.
Brake Buster was just for the tires. ;)
But it’s still fine to use on the wheels even if you have ceramic brakes as long as you are careful.
The notice was more for people who might use a harsher high pH APC to clean wheels. Not all chemicals are made the same. You can have a “safe” pH 11 product that won’t damage things and have another pH 11 product that could potentially affect the finishes. Chemistries are all different.
@@PanTheOrganizer It would be fun if you could do a litmus test to most of the products that you are using. In that way, we the consumers/viewers can have an objective data rather than subjective. Out of the many factors that can make a product great, at least by determining the ph level, we have one piece of the puzzle. Also, we are able to confirm if the data in the sds (if available) are true. If we could approach things in an objective way, it would be really great. Peace! Thanks Pan!
❤️❤️❤️
How would you remove chalk or writing on a new factory tire?
I like using Citrol 266 as it can also remove the colored factory balancing dots on tires.
@@PanTheOrganizer Thanks! ill give it a try. Do you have any tips for cleaning/protecting carbon vinyl racing stripes?
Salut ma question n’a pas trop rapport avec la vidéo mais il y a quelque mois je t’avais demandé quelle produit tu me conseillais pour enlever de la peinture de route(ligne jaune/blanche)mon véhicule noir est rempli de picot partout et sa me fais vraiment chi**
Je voulais faire un céramique coating avec tout tes étapes mais je pense qu’il serait très nécessaire de tout enlever la peinture de route…j’ai vu quelque personne utiliser du goof off mais j’hésite, je sais que tu m’avais conseillé des produits mais je retrouve plus mon commentaire😅En même temps je voulais savoir c’est quel TON préféré ceramic coating car il en a tellement que je ne sais pas quelle prendre et sur ta chaine tu en a présenté plusieurs😅merci beaucoup d’avance tes vidéos sont exceptionnelles
Oh mon dieu Alex, je déteste me répéter! LOL Tu n'as pas pris de notes!? Si tu n'as pas enlevé les picots depuis le temps, il se peut qu'ils soient encore plus difficile à retirer. Plus tu attends, plus ça devient difficile.
Tu peux utiliser le produit pour retirer le vernis à ongles (nail polish remover) que tu mets sur un chiffon microfibre et tu frottes légèrement. L'acétone fonctionne bien aussi. Toujours commencer par des endroits moins visible pour voir l'effet du produit.
Un de mes préférés est Citrol 266: amzn.to/390yyiY
Tu peux aussi utiliser le Goof Off professional strength: amzn.to/3vPMvcm
Laves le véhicule avant de commencer. Utilises le produit. Rinses bien après usage, et relaver le véhicule pour neutraliser tout résidu de produit.
Pour les céramiques, ça dépend de ton budget. Mais mes produits préférés sont toujours listés dans ma remise annuelle de prix de detailing ici: th-cam.com/video/GW3Br5dmmoU/w-d-xo.html
J'espère que ça va t'aider.
Oh what, is this 10 piston calipers?😍😍😍
Yes the top of the line Porsche 10 piston calipers. The biggest brakes Porsche has ever installed on a 911. 😁
@@PanTheOrganizer Thats insane Audi Rs6 also have 10 piston, but I mean this car weighs like 500kg less, so that must be insane braking performance
Porsche are known for the awesome brakes. Even the base 911 brakes are more than enough hehe.
Hi Pan, sorry to go off topic, but wondered if you had seen Yvan Lacroix on the recent Apex video “Dropping Knowledge…” At 12:25 he talks about rotary polishers being safer on paint than a DA. This contradicts everything I have seen on many detailers videos. Would be interested in your comments.
I don’t use rotaries as much, I prefer dual action. Arguments can be made for both sides. In my opinion, a rotary is safe only if used in expert hands with lots of polishing experience. Yvan has over three decades of experience. Is it safe for him? Absolutely.
At the end of the day, it should be more about achieving the best possible results, regardless of what type of polisher a person prefers to use…
Hi Pan.do you dilute brake buster or not.Thanks👌
If I use it in the bottle it comes with, no. If I use it in a pump sprayer or foam cannon, yes.
@@PanTheOrganizer thank you👍
