Review - Gyeon CanCoat Evo

The Guz

Mike
I recently wrote my review on the new Gyeon Pure Evo coating which can be found here https://www.autopia.org/forums/detailing-product-reviews/192715-review-gyeon-pure-evo.html

Again I thank Nathan of Gyeon USA for sending this out to me to try out.

CanCoat has always been one of may favorite products. I would go on a limb and often state it was the best coating in the Gyeon line even if was not a full fledged coating. It had a claim of up to 6 months but it consistently exceeded in durability and longevity for me ranging from15-18 months. It is also one of the most versatile coatings as it can be applied to any surface (glass, paint, trim, wheels) as a standalone but also as a maintenance topper after a year or so. It also has some of the best hydrophobic behavior that I have seen and it leaves that glossy appearance.

CanCoat Evo takes it to another level. Application is still the same as is the delivery system. It does feel slicker than the previous version at least to me.

Background information on CanCoat Evo ceramic coating:

  • Up to 12months (1year)
  • One layer. Second layer completely option but can be applied 1 hour after the first layer.
  • Increase in SiO2 content where CanCoat Pro used to be.
  • Outdoor Friendly. Meaning it can be applied outside but not in direct sun and avoid wet wet weather for the first 24 hours as it will affect the cure time (ie dew, rain). This will be a big hit for those that don`t have access to a garage as it applies to all of the Gyeon coatings. One thing mentioned in the included maintenance book, is to apply Gyeon Cure as a precaution if planning to leave it outside.
  • Can be applied via the included towel or an applicator.
  • Can be applied as a topper over Gyeon Pure Evo or Gyeon Mohs Evo.
  • Can be applied to paint, trim, wheels, glass (not recommended for the front to wiper judder).
Final Thoughts:

I share most of my thoughts in the video but the ease of application and user experience is the same with CanCaot Evo. I always enjoyed the durability of the previous version so having more is a plus while keeping the overall user experience the same. It will more than likely exceed that up to 12 month durability claim.

It still retains that versatility while making for an excellent choice for a maintenance topper a year down the road on a coating. It works with any coating.

CanCoat Evo felt slicker to me than CanCoat. It still leaves that nice gloss and I can say that the beading looks amazing as usual as my brother sent me photos after some rain.

I always have a bottle of it in my cabinet as CanCoat has always been a great product for me.

If you still have an older bottle of CanCoat, don’t get rid of it. Use it as it is a great product. Once it is all used up then transition over to the Evo version.

The vehicle it was applied as a topper to is my brothers 2018 Chevrolet Equinox Redline Edition which was polished with the Dr. Beasley’s NSP 95 and coated with Gyeon Pure Evo.


 
Thanks Guz. I need to make a refill shortly and CanCoat has in my experiences been a solid money maker. Results up to 12 month’s. The ease to apply and remove just makes it a winner.
 
I must have missed this thread. I saw some of the YouTube videos of the grey Chevy paint looks perfect not swirl on it. Looking forward to new cancoat. Haven’t used cancoat in a few years.
 
So......on the vehicle in the video..it had Gyeon Pure Evo on it first, and then Can Coat Evo was used as a topper? Is that Can Coat`s typical use, or more typically a standalone?
 
I’ve used CanCoat standalone and it works very well, easily 12 months durability with 2 coats on a car left outside 24/7. I didn’t go past 12 months as I wanted to touch my paint and put on CQuartz UK though I wouldn’t have an issue using CanCoat again as my primary protection. I’ll be ordering CanCoat Evo in the spring to have on hand.
