As someone who had went through 4 gallons of that product, I can give some insight 👍 If it is locally available to you, I think it is solid for what it is. APC is just APC and we should treat it as such 😌 However, I believe a slightly better option would be P&S Enviro Clean. It is an APC that just smells better and has a similar user experience. I actually made a video showcasing that product on my recent ceramic coating maintenance. Check it out!

It is a cheap knock off from amazon that unfortunately is not available anymore 😭

Yup! Super effective in the interior for a clean feel 😌

I actually have one now and it works well with my Kobalt 26G. 👍 Tho it can only operate when nothing else is also powered on 🤔

@@CardosCarDose I've noticed most guys run smaller compressors, I was going by the spec for the Tornador which led me to the California Air Tools 10020C but that thing has serious power demands. It's nice to find out that isn't needed. Thanks for your reply, videos and insight!

Since this is a really old video, I'll give you an updated response 😂 You can have the purest water in the foamer, but if there is tapwater in the general system, then the benefits for DI water is pretty much ineffective. Sure it can help with foaming, but water spots and other impurities wont be removed. Hopefully this helps 👌

@@CardosCarDose that's what I thought. Thanks for the time

I am not too sure about using that T connector for machines at that high GPM rating 🤔 I would suggest reaching out to other folk who specialize in those fields for additional information. For detailing just a single tube is more than enough as typical pressure washers for detailers never exceeded three GPM 😌 Thank you for the feedback! 🙌

No unfortunately 🤔

@@CardosCarDose ha..ok thx..good videos btw.. do you have an email i can send y ou some pics.. I just got a used car and there is like a dark brown ring of dirt or something circling the entire vehicle below the bottom of the doors...ive never seen anything like it

Feel free to DM the info on IG 👍

I cannot speak for all ceramic coatings, but usually the manufacturer will state what the pH resistance level is, so do some thorough research before attempting. Overall, most coatings should be perfectly fine as APC is not as aggressive as, for example, a degreaser. I have done it on my customers car for about one whole year and it seems to be working just fine. of course, use your best judgment on when it is appropriate to use APC on a vehicle, especially if it is severely contaminated .

No problem champ 👍 Thank you for the kind words and I am glad the information was helpful to you 🥇

I actually do not recommend this one, I used Chemical Guys Clay Block for the video. Instead, use a mid level clay that is easy to work in yet effective enough to remove the deposits. You can use whichever clay from any brand, but if you need a recommendation Ill leave a link to the one I currently use: bit.ly/42bQgXE Hopefully this helps champ! 👍

@@CardosCarDose nice thnx for the info what clay lube you used. The only thing is that all those companies you have to buy 150 or more for free shipping tho. I really appreciate your video

You dont have to get it from the site, or even the same brand, it is a reference so you can shop at your local supplier if possible 😌 I personally do not use clay lube, instead, IPA as my slip solution. It preps and decons at the same time for a more effective clean 🧼 I use P&S Panel Prep. Not for anything in particular, it just makes financial sense as it is a glass cleaner and paint prep combo 👍

i actually have a video demonstrating this if you want to check it out ua-cam.com/video/bfCCx85gTAM/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared

Glad the information was helpful for you as I always try my best to be as transparent as possible. 😊

Nope 👎 Mine is still fine after all these years. Just rinse the product out if planning to store for some time

While it is a good slip solution, for major decontamination I would suggest not using it as you would chemically seal the impurities on the surface. For just a light clay, you can use bead maker and it will be perfectly fine . 👍

The pump I have only draws about 200 W of power. You can easily hook this up to a gas, battery, or an outlet. 👍 Used it with my Delta Pro 🔋

I have not updated the older videos only because it will take forever 😂 luckily everything is located on my website! Here is the link : www.cardoscardose.com/products-used

I have not used any superior products, but honestly, most chemicals will do just fine 👍 pick whichever is readily available to you 🙌

Nope! As long as it has a proper connection and the water can flow freely to the machine, it will be perfectly fine 👍 I once had my tank on the van but my machine was on the sidewalk. I used a 25ft garden hose, connected it to the machine, and worked! The principal remains the same as long as the machine is at a lower or equal height as the tank.

You "could", but I do not use it because it leaves a thick residue behind that needs a lot of rinsing to remove 🫤

@@CardosCarDose fair enough. Seems like it foams like no other, jury is out if that’s good or bad but it looks the part. I’m gonna do a full correction on my really good condition 94 s10 and am researching what to use to gently decon before the clay mit and polisher come out

@EveryDayJay415 There is no need to be gentle as decontamination is not "gentle" 😆 Any alkaline soap will do. Keep the process simple 👍

Appreciate the feedback champ 😎👍 Always here to improve and to help others in the process! 🙏

Currently starting to use Shine Supply Punch It 😎First impressions are great and lasts a bit longer.

@@CardosCarDose awesome.. thank you

They are one inch from Lowes. the larger the diameter the greater the flow of water. 👍

@@CardosCarDosecan you provide the link to the barb fitting?

There are some trouble shooting methods to try out if your having problems 🤔 1. Place machine lower than the tank outlet port. 2. Avoid using wide low profile tanks as there is not enough water weight for gravity feeding 3. if nothing works, you may need an external pump Hopefully this helps somehow 🙏

That video is coming 😌 Still need to word it out properly so it does not sound like a rant or sell out commentary 😆

That would be a no 👎 I made an impression video, but it was never a review video. My only complaint is that EcoFlow, at the moment, does not offer battery cell replacement after heavy usage. Basically turning your $3k investment into Ewaste once its lifespan runs short. If I had to start again, I would go with something like an Anker Battery, they are a more reputable company than EcoFlow, a chinese start up.

@@CardosCarDose oh wow ok so it died early, good to know. How long did it last for you?

@@michaelp8038 its not dead, but I can see the lifespan did shorten a bit. I have about one year of medium usage.

I have never owned own so I have no saying if it would work or not. Wont hurt to try with simple plumping if you have a tank available. Or you can ask a detailer that happens to have that same model as yours. 🤔

Glad the information washelpful for you 🙌 Appreciate the feedback champ! 🥇

I just used traditional degreaser, straight. Will certainly knock off any films or protectants. You may use whichever that is readily available to you. 👍 For the rubber on the windows, you may apply it, but rinse almost immediately for a safe work area 🙌

This can be used as a standalone, no need to apply additional wax as a base layer. 👍 Paste wax is mostly for consumers who want to have a therapeutic session. Liquid spray waxes perform almost identically as paste waxes, but do not require so many steps like a paste wax would.

100% True champ 👍 It is correct that the foam canon does dilute the chemical significantly. With my pressure washer (1322TS), if I pour APC straight, the output is somewhere around 1 : 50. This is a low dilution, however, still has plenty enough kick to cleanse the surface. My most recent video of a ceramic coating maintenance service demonstrates it in case you want to check it out. 😎 👍 ua-cam.com/video/QvgTeoAvBrw/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared

@CardosCarDose I did. Informative video there. Btw, is there any good reason to choose CarPro Reset (well known for its cleaning ability, while remain safe on paint) over APC (diluted properly) for maintain coated car?

Reset is just a soap, and soap is just soap, no matter how alkaline it is. APC on the other hand, is a highly reactive chemical that can certainly clean much more than the most alkaline soap. I do not recommend you use APC as a maintenance cleaner. I used it in that video because the contamination was out of hand and I had to chemically shock the coating to dislodge any impurities. This also helps if you see sheeting behavior instead of beading. 👍 Hopefully, this makes sense 🙏

You can certainly pull off two full exterior and interior details with one battery if you are efficient. ☝️ not that it can't handle it, but if you are going to use particular equipment, such as heated equipment or +1800W machines, then you will certainly need another one. Just depends what you plug in and how long you use it.

For reliability reasons I can not answer that with full certainty. From my experience, using a single Delta Pro as the main machine I have tripped it at around 2900 W trying to run a compressor and vacuum at the same time. I would suggest reaching out to other detailers that have actually ran the machine with the battery. Sorry I could not help you champ 🙏

Kranzle can handle it, those people are a little 🧠 😵‍💫

Debatable, but as long as the method works and makes sense to you that is all that matters 😌 As for APC there are just so many out there I just stuck with the local ones 😂 Most of them will perform identically so pick one that you can work with

More content on the way! 🙌

After using both of them, unfortunately, there is no significant difference between the two, shoot, I can arguably say they are the same blend. It smells the same, works the same, and dilutes the same. So to answer your question, there is no winner here as they both perform the same. 🤔

Got it - thank you!

Not "pump" as in the motor that is outputting the pressure, there is another part in the machine that draws the water from the source. Detailers just call it pump for the sake of simplicity.

Thank you champ! 👍Appreciate the kind words!

What is good champ 👍 I would argue Technicians Choice or Shine Supply Punch it seems like a good alternative considering the price. 🤔 Of course this is subjective, but based off the question, this is the best answer I got 😎
