Thanks for the video! Was interested in other's reaction/review of DIY's updated ceramic line. They make it look easy, so its nice to get confirmation from you that you agree!
Easiest install I have ever done. I did not expect it to be that easy at all. I figure I would have a few high spots to deal with.
Excellent demonstration video Keav. The new ceramic looks easy to apply.
Thanks and it is very easy.
Great video. I recently purchased the 3 year ceramic coating from DIY Detail and was a little nervous about applying it until I watched your video. Great job!!!
I’m nervous as well, but their video showed me you can apply these very easily. Have fun with the install.
Excellent video! I love this channel, keep it up man!
Appreciate that
Super excited for you to review the active short gun!
Just uploaded it to TH-cam. Should be out tomorrow.
Man i love your garage setup - it's my dream, i would set it up exactly like yours.. :) Thank you for your hard work - you have a new sub :) Oh and im a huge BMW fan too, i love your ride man, it's amazing..
Appreciate the kind words. It’s been a journey getting all this setup that is for sure.
@@CarsWithKeav It was really worth it!
Straight lines so much easier for me. Interesting their graphene coating only lasts 3 years but Adam’s advertises 7-9 years 🧐 Thanks for the video!
The coating itself can last a very long time the benefits of the graphene wear down sooner. They only quote expected duration of the graphene attributes and not the ceramic coating itself. So I don’t know if it’s marketing wording or not. I’m not a chemist even on the easiest level. 🤣
Graphene itself breaks down quicker which is roughly 3 year mark, not sure how Adams says such a high year of protection. Testing it is tough because it is a waiting game of course lol.
@@CarsWithKeav Did you notice with the 8 year pro coating it had a strong solvent smell like a typical pro coating would? Like Gtechniq Ultra?
Can you test the ammo NYC coatings... They seem very easy to apply
I’ll put it on the list.
Curious on why the 5 is more glossy than the other two. Looks very easy to install
All in the formulation. To get super gloss over the durable coating you sacrifice longevity, but that is just the the length of super glossy attribute. The base of the coating itself will last longer.
Can you review the new Hercules DA at harbor freight? Looks like a big step up from the Bauer one that has been a budget staple
I still have the original Chicago tools DA they sold there years ago. I will put it on the list.
@@CarsWithKeav that's cool haven't seen the Chicago one in a long time. Would be a cool video to compare all three models and which one is worth it to beginners even throw in the griots g9 as well as I think that's the most suggested da for beginners
I'm in Harbor Freight in the states twice a week. I've never seen a DA by Hercules in harbor freight. Where are you seeing this at? There's a rotary . Unless you're talking about a palm sander.
They do appear to be very easy to install. Curious on why the 5 year has more gloss though 🤔
Just how it’s formulated, but to get surfer gloss you sacrifice longevity to the more durable coating.
@@CarsWithKeav Great video. I wish this was available when we got our new car a few months ago. Used 2 coats of Gyeon Mohs. Would have loved the 5 year on our black car.
@@wescat2 Always something new coming. You still got a stellar coating on there though.
How does it compare to professional grade coatings like IGL? I'm a igl installer but don't like the 2 step process.
I am unsure have not used that coating and this coating has only been out for a little over a month so not sure on long term yet. I know the formulation in the 8 year is pro quality, but designed to be easy to install.
I purchased the 3 year graphine, do you think I can put this over TW max wax, I polished and decontaminated my paint before hand.
You mean you have already put down TW Max Wax? Then I would say no, this needs to be the base coating just after polishing as it chemically bonds to the clear coat. The Max Wax would keep this from happening properly. TW Max Wax would be a topper coat you can put on after it cures to make it last even longer.
@@CarsWithKeav yeah I did post winter detail on my Subaru. Decontamination, polished, panel prep, and then the TW graphine to the max wax. I should of held out longer and put the DIY on first. I thought it would be ok since they are both graphine.
@@dini1046 It has Graphene in it to help with water spotting, but it is still mainly a full ceramic coating
Do you have a link to the lights in your garage?
Here you go amzn.to/3xeRx2V
Are you not concerned with introducing swirls by applying the coating in a circular motion? I've never seen it done that way before.
Swirls are not always caused by circular motion. They are tons of micro scratches and the round nature of lighting such as the sun creates an effect that looks like they are circular. Not concerned about scratches from applying a ceramic coating due it is a lubricant before it flashes and the applicator material is designed for it. The surface is very clean before as well. So no dirt or debris between the pad and paint. Now the chances of scratching are greater when using circular motion due to it being more aggressive than a straight line. I trust Yvan from DIY as he is all about scratch prevention.
Is using the ceramic coating on a soft roll-up tonneau cover safe?
I reached out to them and they said to use their Interior Ceramic for that type of material. It’s too plyable for a harder type ceramic coating.
Hi mate, no update on these products? Thx
I’ll be filming a full install of the 8 year and give an update in that video.
Is there a follow up to this video? How did each of them turn out? have you washed the panel numerous times? how is the beading? Gloss? etc.
I will be doing a one year update in a few months, but so far they are working out great. I wash them quite often every time I wash my cars and they also get overspray from every chemical known to man whenever I am washing my cars. Beading like day 1 still. I do maintenance washes on them every 3 months or so as well. Have the 8 year installed on one of my cars and the 3 year on another and they are doing great. I would say so far on par with the Gtechniq CSL and EXO combo I have used in the past, but I don't have any long term experience with these yet to say which is more durable over several years.
@CarsWithKeav Thanks for the reply. I want to try out the 3 yr as being my first coating install and hoping it works well. How is the beading on the 3yr?
@@michaeljaramillo3285 Beading is great and less water spotting because of the Graphene. Also remember if taken care of properly this will last much longer than 3 years just the graphene attribute would wear off by then. The base ceramic will still be going strong. Best advice make sure to keep shaking the bottle every few panels to get that graphene mixed in real good.
@@CarsWithKeav Awesome, thank you very much. Keep up the good work on the videos.
What about the 8/3 year stack
That concept came out well after this video. Don’t have any surfaces at the moment to try that one, but I hear it is crazy good.
Got a link to the lights you're using?
Here you go amzn.to/3xeRx2V
I polish my truck, but I didn’t clay it. Do you think I need to? It feels very smooth before the I apply 5 year coating
@@dougf6852 Clay would be before polish to remove minerals and residue so you won’t get that in your polish process.
Adam’s claims their advance graphene will last 9 yrs
I don’t believe in any of these numbers really other than usually when they state a higher number it will last longer than the lower number ones. 🤣 Perfect lab scenario maybe to get the actual year stated. Which we know that is not possible in the real world. The years is all marketing as people won’t buy if you don’t state some kind of timeframe. We are our own demise. 🤣
Thanks for the review sir! Next time, please wear gloves.
Good Advice , but I like to live dangerously. 🤣 Just kidding, I normally do in this situation just totally forgot.
Im sure Gtechniq coatings outperform these
We won’t know until they have been used overtime. I’ve had CSL, C4, C5, etc. on my cars and they performed well. I don’t think these can hold up to Crystal Serum Ultra, but at least from an install they were easier than CSL. I used to use only Gtechniq, but expanding my horizons to truly see what is best in all categories.
Sounds more like a commercial. You said they sent you this product let me guess, it was free.
Yes it was free one of the few things from them I have not paid for, but it worked well and installed great so what else is it going to sound like? All I can say is you are entitled to your opinion and thanks for watching. If you don’t like my format then lots more out there to see.
@@CarsWithKeav I can't remember who it was told me to watch your channel. I guess I'm just naturally suspicious. When I see a review of a product that was given to the person I just wonder how objective it can really be
@@dcurry8147 I totally understand that and feel the same way many times myself. You never really know in the end which sucks. Is this person faking it or not? Are they under a contract? Are they getting paid and not just free stuff? Many times a small creator with no money has to accept those kind of terms to get a product they can’t afford. All I can say is I have expendable income and can do all of this without the TH-cam Channel I just enjoy the creation process and to let other people know about good products so they don’t have to take as much of a risk. The channel does make money now and I disclose all those numbers once a year in December. Cool thing is the more we make the more cool stuff we can buy to review. I tend to turn down more now just to
avoid it sounding like I’m being biased.
@@CarsWithKeav okay sounds like an honest answer. I'll check out some more of your videos
