CLEAN by Pan Quick Detailer vs Tough As Shell: Which Is Better?
Pan The Organizer just released his new CLEAN Quick Detailer—but how does it compare to Tough As Shell from Jimbo’s Detailing?
What CLEAN by Pan Promises
Pan’s exterior quick detailer claims to boost shine and slickness with an easy-to-use ceramic formula. According to the description, it can be used as a drying aid or spray detailer, is safe on all exterior surfaces, and works with existing waxes, sealants, or coatings.
What Tough As Shell Delivers
Tough As Shell is a sprayable ceramic coating that was made to work in the real world—garage or driveway. It’s been tested in sun, rain, and road grime. It offers a slick finish, long-lasting protection, and water beading you can actually see for weeks, not hours.
Key Differences That Matter
- Shine & Slickness: Both enhance gloss, but Tough As Shell tends to create a deeper finish, especially on darker colors.
- Durability: Pan’s product is more of a topper. Tough As Shell bonds better for longer-lasting results (weeks to months, not days).
- Application: Both are easy to use, but Tough As Shell won’t streak or haze, even in the sun.
- Real-World Feedback: Watch the YouTube comparison video here.
Final Verdict
If you’re already using waxes or coatings and just want a quick gloss booster, CLEAN by Pan might be worth a try. But if you want real ceramic protection without the fluff, Tough As Shell is the smarter, longer-lasting choice.
Pro Tip:
Layer Tough As Shell every 4–6 weeks for unbeatable protection. And if you need towels that don’t scratch, grab the Orange Wash Microfiber Towels and Massive Drying Towel for pro-level results.
