Great showcase of PHOBIC, Bruce! Always a pleasure hanging out with you in the garage. I REALLY appreciate you being honest in the fact that this type of product doesn’t make sense for your use case, but explaining how it could be for others. You rock!💚
I’ll always be honest. I try to see the positives and how products can be of benefit. Appreciate you trusting me with access to your products before being released.
I have this product and plan on using it as a "booster" for my ADS Quartz (although it surely won't need it). I'm looking to do a "boost coat" come spring and another one come fall💡
Another extremely well done video Bruce. I honestly hope other manufacturers are watching your introduction videos. They would be well served to become part of Bruce’s Garage.
@@JeepJL Thank you, I really appreciate that. I try to present my initial thoughts without bias. I simply want people to know what’s available and how it might be of use to them. Thanks again for taking the time to watch and comment.
Great idea! Anything to minimize overspray. I sprayed very close to applicator and that seemed to work as well. Thanks again for watching and taking time to share what has worked for you.
Bruce, thanks for your review. Since my wife's car has a graphene/ceramic coating, I apply a spray coating in the fall & once again in the spring on her car. The company boast a 1.5 year longevity. I do a thorough deep clean & decontamination each time before I spray the coating. Most of the time, I use a rinseless wash during the year (about once a week in the garage during the winter).
Great plan! PHOBIC will get you you at least the same longevity applied as I demonstrated. Glad you found a process and products that are working well for you. Great job! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Hi, this is my first time on your channel. Very well done. You’re also calm and likable. Good presence. I look forward to more. As far as the product I am glad you didn’t shy away from mentioning can coat. I feel as if this is the first possible real competition to it. I LOVE can coat and I am interested in this between your and EC details showcase. Best of luck with your continued success.
Thank you for checking out my channel! I appreciate your kind words and I'm excited to share more content with you. It’s great to hear your thoughts on CanCoat-let's see how this competition plays out! I think we'll find PHOBIC has greater longevity than CanCoat, but that remains to be seen. Thanks again for watching and taking the time to comment. Much appreciated.
Spectacular review Bruce! I saved it as I’m for sure gonna reference it in the future. I completely agree with Jamie and Amour Detail Supply’s comments! Your honesty and insight is highly appreciated as a viewer of your channel.
Thank you! I did apply it to the plastics and seems to work fine. Deepened the black color a bit, but these the trim was not faded. I did not apply to glass, but you certainly can. I tend to use dedicated glass coatings, but honestly I don’t know how much of a difference there is in terms of durability. The greatest challenge with glass coatings is the friction from the wipers. The more you can minimize the use of the wipers, the longer the coating will last, but most glass coatings are simply not as durable as on the paint as they can’t truly be absorbed. But I do find glass coatings to be very beneficial from a visibility perspective.
I think that is the best comparison. When I used CanCoat I did the “spray and wipe” method on a microfiber towel. It was super easy, worked well, and added nice gloss with good hydrophobics. However, while you can do that with PHOBIC, I chose to spray on applicator, apply, let it flash, and then level. This method adds longevity, but does lengthen application. But you can apply it in the same way as CanCoat. If comparing, we’d have to follow the same application method to be fair. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. Appreciate it.
I'd like to tell you Bruce that I've sub'd to your channel based off of your no nonsense approach, a welcomed site in this world of clown RUclips reviewers, looking forward to future videos 📣
Thank you. Nothing too special - 2016 4Runner and 2024 Honda CR-V. Planning to replace the 4Runner next year, hopefully with a Lexus GX550 Overtrail+ or a Chevy Tahoe RST. We’ll see…
Great video and new product showcase! kinda looks like the sprayer puts out wide fan. Also if u don’t polish before hand, what if vehicle has a sealant on it?
Are the towels you used to wipe & buff the coating able to be washed and reused like typical spray coatings or do they have to be disposed of (ie single use) like with the 3-5 year semi-permanent coatings?
I used the Rag Co Rip-n-Rag Ultra XL and dispose of them. However, you can place them in rinseless or Rags to Riches to detergent mix immediately after use and then launder. I do this with any coating, regardless of whether spray or traditional. Hope that helps.
Give it a shot. This coating is different from your typical spray on wipe off coating (although you can apply it that way, durability is shortened). Appreciate you watching.
@@MrKaystew There are a few advantages - 1) Lower cost; 2) easy application (especially if you do spray on microfiber and wipe panel). Downside, shorter longevity. PHOBIC comes in a 90 ml bottle, so if you are coating multiple vehicles, that one bottle can serve 6 or so vehicles, making it low cost.
Applied as I demonstrated is in the 18-24 month range. If applied more quickly via spraying on microfiber and then wiping onto vehicle is less durable (~12 months). Of course, this is what ADS has stated, but they generally provide very realistic expectations, not hyper inflated.
Not quite 🤣. I can’t speak to others, but when I received the products I got my butt in gear and used them so I could share my thoughts before Thursday’s release. I appreciate you taking the time to watch.
Yes! Just be mindful of wind in any conditions. Shielding the spray from the wind (with your body or some other barrier) will help prevent losing product and minimize any overspray issues.
Looks like a good product. I would rather apply a coating this way with the spray application. 18 to 24 months is still a good amount of time. I could definitely see this being a great option for pro detailers to offer to their clients that don't want the full blown coating but would go for an approximately 2 year coating for $300, a lot more people will go for $300 over the high cost of regular coatings. Most people would be very happy with 18 to 24 months because it's far more than a wax or sealant can provide and lets be honest, most people don't even wash their cars as it's not a priority for them. At most, they go to the local "wash & scratch" automated car wash. This product really reminds me of Gyeon Can Coat which would be it's direct competitor. I'm sure detailers will be doing comparisons of Can Coat and this product in the future in head to head battles to see which product performs the best.
@@jeffc6832 At minimum 90 days. This could be extended depending on storage. Realistically once you start to see some cloudiness form inside the bottle you'll want to use it fairly quickly. It will be 3-6 months depending on how its stored and how long the bottle was open for.
I hope it gives you 18 to 24 months real world protection It would be great but i don't think it will as a lot of the none spray ceramic coatings that claim longer dont even give 2 years protection in reality on daily driven vehicle
I dont see much of an application time saving with these shorter term coatings. I guess if somone was planning to polish every couple of years then this would be a decent option. But for the weekend enthusiast, theyre never going to use the whole bottle. A smaller bottle for the DIYer could be a good option
Another application option is to spray on surface or MF and wipe off. Much quicker, but you do sacrifice some longevity. I agree that 90 ml is a ton for the average consumer, even with 2 cars. I think the sweet spot is a Detailer that can offer low cost of entry to customers. They can get multiple vehicles from one bottle. Thank you for taking the time to share your insights and watching. I really appreciate it.
@@djmayoADSlongevity comes down to prep. If you want to get the most out of a coating, you need correct prep. I applied gyeon can coat evo to wifes daily driver. Installed it June 2022. Its still heading and glossy. But that was a full prep like i wss doing a long term coating.
I’m wondering why, other than cost, I would use this product rather than any of the easy to apply coatings that are good for five years or more? The prep and application looks to be the same! All that work for half the life, and we don’t know for sure what the life really is.
Great point - I failed to demonstrate that you can also apply this via a "spray on wipe off" method - although much quicker application, you lose a little longevity. I think the sweet spot is for pro detailers that want to offer a low cost option for ceramic that will last 18-24 months in real life. They can get at least 6 vehicles done out of one bottle, so it's a great option for them and the consumer. Thanks for watching and sharing your valid perspective.
@@Bruces-Garage Spray on wipe off would give it a leg up on conventional coatings, but I don’t think I would want to use this product in that fashion. Any product that has the risk of high spots needs to be controlled. I can envision mist and overspray landing on a completed area or panel, and if you don’t see it right away, it is going to have a not to pretty finish. You have obviously recognized this potential problem with your cautions to spray product onto the applicator “away from car”! One thing this product tells us Bruce is the future of ceramic coatings is cheaper, easier, and more durable! It is moving into the realm of quick detainers!😀
Yeah, agree! I used what was available given the time I had available to fully detail, shoot video, and edit. I had a very limited time window. Appreciate your suggestion and watching. Thank you!
I love Armour Detail products (Hero, Amplify, Pilot, etc.) and appreciate your excellent review. However, I don’t see any benefit of applying the ceramic coating to the applicator via spray or drops. The coating process is the same. Anyone who has applied a ceramic coating knows that the prep takes longer than the application. So, other than saving money on applying this ceramic coating over most others for the initial application, why wouldn’t I apply a ceramic coating with a longer life? If I need to apply this coating every 2 years, the cost savings begins to disappear compared with long lasting ceramic coatings with a 4-6 year expected life.
@@TomScelfo Thanks, Tom. Appreciate your kind words. I think if you’re an individual and comfortable with ceramic coating application, I’d apply a multi-year coating as you noted. If you’re not comfortable with the traditional method, most people would be ok to spray on a microfiber and wipe off, realizing that will get you about a year protection at most, so that’s option 2. The other use case is for detailers who want to offer a lower cost entry level coating since they can coat multiple vehicles. I know some detailers are going to do that and offer minimal paint correction - or essentially a quick one step polish and then coat. Hope this helps.
@@Bruces-Garage Bruce - thanks for the quick reply. RUclips decided to show me your two "pre-release" product review videos after watching videos from Pan and Yvan, and I have happily subscribed to your channel because I enjoy the way you review products. I hope you get a chance to provide an update video on Ghost. I have been using CarPro Dark Side for a while, so I'm curious how Ghost compares for longevity, which is one of Dark Side's strengths in my opinion. Good luck expanding your channel..
@@TomScelfo Wow, thanks, Tom. I really appreciate you subscribing. I like Darkside as well and it seems extremely durable. I’ll do my best to monitor - my cars are not the greatest test because they are garage kept and don’t get a lot of daily use. However, I’ve put it on some other vehicles and I will stay in touch with their owners. Thanks again for subscribing and I hope you continue to enjoy the content.
Maybe. Here’s the deal. If you’re a pro, you can apply it quicker than a regular coating at a much lower cost (90 ml bottle allows you to protect at least 6 vehicles) and thus a new offering for customers. If you want the quick apply method - spray on to a microfiber and wipe on paint. That is very quick and will give you a year of protection (per ADS). So it’s a bit different than simply a spray coating. I didn’t do a great job explaining those details and may do a follow up answering some of the common questions I’ve heard, like yours. Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. I truly appreciate it.

Interesting I’ve loved gyeon can coat this seems very similar!
Very similar, but more durable.
I have to see this head to head with adams advanced spray coating
Give it a shot. This coating is different from your typical spray on wipe off coating (although you can apply it that way, durability is shortened). Appreciate you watching.

Bruce do you know the solid content of Phobic? I know Quarts is 66-67% and Quartz Pro is 87-88%
25% for PHOBIC. Which is high for this type of coating.
25% solids. Very different from its pro and quartz coatings. Thanks for watching, Wes.
Can you apply phobic outside if it's cloudy
Yes! Just be mindful of wind in any conditions. Shielding the spray from the wind (with your body or some other barrier) will help prevent losing product and minimize any overspray issues.

Hey Bruce. Great video!! What happens when it comes to the end of the life of the coating, do you have to polish it off or can you reapply it? Thanks
Decontaminate, prep, and reapply. You would not HAVE to remove the existing product.
You can reapply if the coating is pretty much gone. You may need to polish off in some body locations where the coating has hung on.
