Right now is the Rinseless, 8 year and 3 year stack besides your BC7. Also ceramic gloss, interior ceramic, the towel with the water spot remover and the iron remover. I haven't tried the APP since I polished dark colored customer's vehicles with the Dr. BEASLEY'S NSPs and clear colored vehicles with the Gold Standard. I will be using the APP soon since I prefer something like Dr. BEASLEY'S NPS where I don't have to use an IPA. The great thing is APP can be used with any ceramic coating. Something also Yvan shared was that they are without PFAs or getting rid of them. Something also great about DIY Detail coatings is that you can return the vehicle to the customer 1 hour after the coating cured.
oh so many. Incredible suds competes well with GSF, It's my go to now. Water spot remover easily removes the residue from water spots. The synthetic clay towel with DIY Iron remover makes for easy 1 step decon, and ofcourse the Rinseless has so many uses.
Hello, since this Adhesion Promoter Polish product goes a long way, wouldn't it make sense to offer a single-use portion size along with the ceramic coatings?
@@diydetailofficial Well if it's any help, one random dude on the Internet thinks that it would be a bargain if it were maybe $10 considering that it would make a $200-300 product apply to their car better.
Thank you for the helpful video, Brian. After applying the APP, what is the maximum amount of time you have before applying the ceramic coating? For example, could you apply APP in the evening and apply the coating the next morning?
Correct, after applying the APP you can let it sit for about a day before needed to reapply the APP. I typically say if you have time to apply APP you should gave time to do the coating, but that’s not how it always works out.
Shop Manager didn’t look impressed.😁 I think Yvan mentioned that after an hour, you can get the coating wet/you can have your customer drive off in the rain, but like other coatings, don’t wash it for at least a week. Like every other coating, it’ll depend on how you maintain it. I’m sure you’ll see a comment from Yvan at some point.
Brian, you just mentioned in a video the other day about how "if a company advertises a lifetime coating, run." Thoughts on the pro only C6 coatings being advertised as lifetime?
That bottle has gotten some installers almost 40 vehicle's. It's a really good deal. However, in our most recent C6 meeting, they did bring up the idea of maybe offering a smaller bottle in the future as an option
Yeah they mentioned that at the moment, their production only really allows them to make 16oz and gallons. Maybe in the future though they can make a smaller bottle available
Can the APP be used before using any ceramic type coating? Or should it only be used with DIY products? I'm gonna guess it could be used with other product lines.
Finally found a DIY video on the C6 products I hadn't seen. Apparently he believes you likely can but it hasn't been tested with that many products yet.
The shop manager was concerned that by using another person‘s product, her supply of farmers dog, dog food will be cut. I don’t think Brian would do that. 🤔😉
Thanks Brian for being open to try the product and give it time for performance commentary. I highly respect the DIY team and their goals of the product offerings. However being a price conscious and having realistic expectations I wish the industry can work on the lower range priced products.
Brian is a true gentleman, and we willingly collaborate with him. The price of C6 Ceramics Hydro Lite is there because of technology involved. For the person looking for a great quality coating at a more affordable price the DIY Detail and Brian’s BC line of coatings represent exceptional value.
Great review Brian. Glad you just got it because you were curious. Being efficient is key. I think this coating can get wet after hour. I'm sure 24 hours is better though.
Great video as I appreciate your honest opinion. I have used APP on a dozen or so cars and it works well with other coatings. The only difficulty I have ever had was on super soft black paint because it kept hazing. I have Hydro on my daily driver and the coating was slicker a month later than after install and I have not washed it yet. The hydrophobic water behavior will make you go wow. You can watch water beads at a high contact angle slide off the car. I look forward to seeing your update videos.
Thank you Brian for sharing your thoughts. Here are mine; as a "Weekend Warrior" who loves detailing my vehicles and friends, I personally don't want a coating that lasts more than 2 years as I love to detail a car and try new products. If you all remember, there are so many ceramic/graphene coatings out there and I enjoy trying them. Plus, sorry to say but this cost is beyond what I want to pay (over $275). I keep my cars maybe 3 to 4 years and in that time, newer products are hitting the market. On a side note; so far one of the best coatings I have used is AvalonKing. Easy on, easy off, great protection and water-beading.
We know the price isn’t for everyone, and that’s fine. Hopefully in time the technology in C6 Ceramics Hydro Lite will reduce in price. For now it’s as low as we can go. That said the performance of it isn’t like anything you’ve seen before. The Refined Detonated Nano Diamonds really make a difference. The reason we are offering C6 Ceramics Hydro Lite is because of demand. Many hobbyist detailers are producing results on par or better than many professionals. This is why we are offering C6 Ceramics Hydro Lite.
The price isn't for everyone 🤔 so who is this made for?? We all, as professionals detailer, don't even want to spend that money on a ceramic coating that just came out with the hype we are still waiting and still thinking
I am looking forward to your observations and opinions on this product. I have BC7 on my garage queen and i did the 8 year 3 year DIY stack on the daily. I have used every BC coating and have never been disappointed. Love that Brian takes the time to continually test other products. I do miss the old test protocols. Lol
Any noticeable in the looks of the coating between the stack and BC7? Going back and forth on whether I wanna do BC7, stack, or c6 hydro. It is a C6 corvette it would be going on 😂
Absolutely love that colour. I’ve used the APP before putting the C6 Hydro. I found that because it swells the paint that it is a little grabby to remove. After the coating it is super slick.
Yvon actually says this is designed to etch deeper into the paint and to not crack over time and if maintained well could last the life of the vehicle. Will be interesting to watch how this product pans out over time. I dont mind the extra jeweling step if the products end up being amazing over time.
Thank you for your channel because it’s one I watch probably the most because your approach is no nonsense and you give your honest reviews without being negative. And as far as this particular coding, yes it is very expensive and for a guy like me who keeps his car in the garage most of the time. Not sure why it’s considered a lifetime coating. Most people won’t keep the car that long. Unfortunately, either DIY version three year coating did not work for me. But do enjoy some of their other products. Because of their rise in price and product shift I watch less. Your videos always a joy to watch. Thank you
Hey Brian another great video from you and the shop manager. Just a question do you think we put to much importance on the slickness and beading on ceramic coatings where it’s a sacrificial layer that we put on top of it that we rely on for slickness and beading.
So for this would I need to do a complete decontamination and polish before the coating is applied? Another question is I’ve been looking at 3D speed what speed would I use for trying to remove scratches and then to polish or use the same speed? Thanks home enthusiast trying to learn
being an extra step like you said (a slight negative), will you being trying the app polish with other coatings to see if they’d benefit from it? (a potential positive)
Assuming you use panel prep in your normal process before coating, applying APP does not add an extra step… Brian said so during the application, which sounds contradictory to his opening remarks
meh, an ipa panel prep isn’t applied with a machine and a pad, app is an extra step compared to spray on and a wipe off product…i’m just wondering how it works with other coatings. i’m going to do a test spot with ads pro quartz (a high solids coating) …. would i rather use a ipa prep, yes, but if the benefits of the diy app can help other coatings then i’ll gladly use it. you get so much and use so little, why not. and according to yvan it can be used safely with other coatings, time to test!
What is your favorite product from DIY Detail?

@@therealmatthewsmithno drama intended, just an honest question. I should've waited to comment, as he answered my question.
@@jeffc6832 sorry I misjudged! You are absolutely right though.
If you need such a small amount of the APP, why such a large bottle? Seems a bottle half that size would suffice for plenty jobs.
small portion in the box even a packet would have been nice
That bottle has gotten some installers almost 40 vehicle's. It's a really good deal. However, in our most recent C6 meeting, they did bring up the idea of maybe offering a smaller bottle in the future as an option
Yvan said the smaller bottles cost more on the manufacturing side, if I remember right.
Yeah they mentioned that at the moment, their production only really allows them to make 16oz and gallons. Maybe in the future though they can make a smaller bottle available
I’m agree. I know it’s for pros, but for the price the app should be in the box with the coating.
Can the APP be used before using any ceramic type coating? Or should it only be used with DIY products? I'm gonna guess it could be used with other product lines.

How do you feel something like APP would work with your coatings?
Thanks Brian.
Haven’t watch the video yet but I know it will be good
The C6 Ceramics Adhesion Promoter Polish (APP) will aid any coating.
I am looking forward to your observations and opinions on this product. I have BC7 on my garage queen and i did the 8 year 3 year DIY stack on the daily. I have used every BC coating and have never been disappointed. Love that Brian takes the time to continually test other products. I do miss the old test protocols. Lol

what is the difference between polysilazane vs other silicon carbide / dioxide based products? (e.g C6 vs CQuartz)
C6 Ceramics Hydro Lite is a combination of Polysilazane, Silicon Carbide, Silicon Nitride, Silicone Dioxyde and Refined Detonated Nano Diamonds.
@@diydetailofficial in terms of durability and hydrophobics, how does polysilazane standout? love diy detailing btw!!
The hazing bothers me. A assume they don’t recommend a damp towel off?
a 2 mil bottle of app in the kit would have been nice, do your customers ask about longevity
Dr. Beasly has a video of their glass coating they have to remove by machine polisher
If you leave a high spot on glass with this coating, you'll definitely need to polish it off
@@DelgadoDetailing it was procedure to polish the product on the entire windshiels, almost funny
I’ve used the APP on a few vehicles and I love it.
Thank you.
What coating(s) did you use?
@@reeb9016
DIY 8-3 stack and DPC Prime TMR. Hydro lite is up next.
Thanks, Brian. Let's wait and see how it holds up.
Love the red paint, thank you for sharing Brian 👍😁
Fantastic video Brian, look forward to future updates.
Great job Brian looking forward to how it holds up and how you maintain it!! Thanks!!
I think you put to much pressure

Not sure "etching" into the paint is correct ;)
The C6 Ceramics Adhesion Promoter Polish (APP) swells the paint, not etching. It’s actually not an extra step, it replaces the panel prep step.
Brian,
Can the App be used withyour coatings?
Yes

Yvan had said that they recommend the palm sander specifically because the wipe off is harder with a polisher
Start recording in 4k, those oil
slicks will come right up!🤘
Forgive me if you mentioned it, but can APP be used with other coatings?
yes, Yvan says it will work with all coatings to help them bond better
yes
Yes
Coating can get wet after one hour
Correct
I may give this a shot, but my go to product is still BC-1 👍, for my motorcycles
You down with the APP?! Yeah, you know me! Great video! Thanks for showing application process and unboxing. Looking forward to seeing longevity!
Thank you.
I like their interior cleaner. And there rinseless wash
So for this would I need to do a complete decontamination and polish before the coating is applied? Another question is I’ve been looking at 3D speed what speed would I use for trying to remove scratches and then to polish or use the same speed? Thanks home enthusiast trying to learn
Speed should not be used prior to a coating.
It seems like everyone is ripping off your polysilazane based products.
Polysilazane is a very common ingredient in many coatings.
Great video. Thank you
The DIY is good. But c6 is $$$$$ for a coating
As Eddie just showed, one 30ml bottle will easily do two cars with some leftover.
Red pad looks like a 3M
They’re manufactured by lake country to the specifications of diy detail
I love lake county. Still looks like a 3M perfect-it pad
Other than being a red waffle, no other similarities. Our pads are made be Lake Country Manufacturing.
