Ethos MAX Graphene Coating | The toughest coating on the market?

Published 2024-04-30
Will Ethos Car Care top our durability charts and offer professional level performance in a DIY package with its MAX Graphene Coating? Ethos says the MAX coating has the highest resin content available to the public, that it will last over 7 years, and will provide extreme gloss. Today we are going to perform all of our tests including durability, glass meter readings, and slickness. Of course we're also find out if it's really a DIY product given the claims and see if it makes paint prettier. In our last video we tested Artdeshine's NGC, a professional coating, so this is the perfect time to see how Ethos compares.

    Dimitry, you've done an excellent job defining, executing and explaining your objective coating test. I'm very impressed.
  • @MBauer-op6vx
    Awesome review! This is some next level testing !! Thank you!
  • @e.jharris3498
    Dmitry! Keep doing great videos! Great work, as always!
  • @aaronolsen8787
    These are cool tests, thanks for all the time and work you put into them! I'm really looking forward to seeing if the C6 hydro lite coating can do as well as this ethos max graphene coating. Is it going to be a while before that test comes out? Subscribed and waiting. 😅
  • @Apophis-en9pi
    Going to be installing this in about a week! Girlfriend will be happy.
  • @ethoscarcare
    Great test Dmitry! Glad to see MAX performing like a champ!! It will be a tough one to beat :)
  • @ericwright1075
    You sold me on this product but I think it is out of my league. Good review. 🇨🇦👍👍
  • @rayvalero8580
    Cannot wait to see the C6 products by DIY Detail. Especially the Hydro.
  • Hey Dmitry, love your testing! Can you tell me how the depth and richness looked after 1000 washes? If you recall, thanks!!
  • Nice review Dmitry. I haven't done a full ceramic coating on my vehicles yet. I am still old school and used good quality sealants on my vehicles. This coating looks amazing. My wife just got a new Subaru Outback and this coating looks like it might be the perfect coating for her daily driver. Can you use it over PPF? We got half her front hood PPF'd because we have a ton of rocks on the roads here in Colorado. It's not if, it's WHEN you get a chip. She had the car three weeks and got a big rock crack in the front windshield already! It's crazy how many rock chips you get here, CRAZY. They mount up on your car almost daily. I have a 370Z that was perfect six months ago. Now it has dings and chips all over it and I have only driven it about ten times in the past six months. Most of the roads here are in horrible condition. This might be my first adventure into putting a ceramic coating on!

    I've been watching your videos, and they are educational and eye-opening. As a new car owner, I would like to know what I can do to help maintain my car's paint. I have a silver-colored car with an open garage (no roof), it is ceramic coated, and I currently use Soft99 Fusso Coat wax. Could you recommend any products I can use to protect my paint? Thank you and more power to your channel ❤

    Love your tests. One differentiator that I wonder about is how coatings stay clean or resist "clogging". I think waxman vids did a side-by-side test on a door with DIY Detail 3 year and Mohs Evo and the DIY was needing waterspot remover while the Gyeon was still beading. Not sure if there is a way to test it, but that's one of the remaining unknowns between coatings.
  • Any plans on having a look into the ne C6 ceramic hydro lite "DIY"? Im really considering this coating for my daily and would love to hear your thoughts.
  • @davidkrocks
    ended up buying it and I'm going to try it out on my s550 blue mustang. Fingers crossed!
  • @Anton99997
    Amazing test as always. Please do a test on the new Cerakote Ceramic coating
