Re: The Pan video...you know the one, discuss!
Lots of comments, I've read them all. The one above by Coatingsarecrack does show the paid promotion. Without going back I'd assume he's always included the paid promotion in the beginning of his vids I mean if he didn't then I can understand the whole uproar.
As far as Scott goes I was surprised to even see him as I thought he actually sold off his business, also stopped doing videos

This should have been between 2 people. DPC just wanted views and is pure click bait.
How did she get dragged into this? I didn't watch the original video.

Alot of us made that assumption and thats how he probably started out. He doesn’t ever say he doesn’t do this for money and has actually come out before and said this is main source of revenue

I never noticed that before. I don't remember it being on the videos that I watched previously. I guess that does change the situation some.

Seems that is result of him being called out. That was not on his videos previously.

Not accurate
It's there plus he says it and it's in description too. Most just don't pay attention to it
They have too to keep their YouTube perks in tact

Easy example.
The includes paid promotion is there as soon as the videos start (on ones that are promoted)

Haven't watched many of his videos but I also did not notice that on a recent video I had watched prior to all this. I do see he also has it disclosed in the description. Could the videos have been updated to show that popup or did we just not notice?

I never much cared for Pan's presentations and took them with a pound of salt. Some reviewers offer their 2˘ worth as help/assistance to fellow detailers and beginners. Pan appears to do his presentations solely for income. I can't fault him for that but his personality, or lack thereof, just turns me off.
I had never heard of Scott prior to all of this crapolla.

I don't really know. I think the bigger issue is many of his videos are not marked "Paid promotion" even right now and perhaps they don't need to be. But when I watch a video on "My secret products for the most gloss" am I supposed to think that is Pan's unbiased opinion based on his experience using the products? Or is he going to select products from vendors that have paid him money for previous paid videos to be "The Best"?
I unsubscribed from Pan a while back because every product was great when the majority of other people's experiences were not the same as his. I figured it out long ago. You hope others see it too so they can make more informed decisions.
At the end of the day this drama has run its course for me.

Re: The Pan video...you know the one, discuss!
What I think is funny is that the vast majority of these products work on some level and usually at a high enough level that it's hard to truly tell the difference. I like Pan because he shows us the product. That's what I want. I don't care what he or the others hate about them. I've always figured they were getting paid on some level, whether it's products, money, or money from youtube. I just expect that. Apex, Pan, and to a lessor extent Jimbo will provide certain details about a product that I "need" that gets me to want to try them. If I had the kind of money needed to do it, I'd just buy everything and make my own decisions on what I end up using. I'd really like it if Mike would do something similar on a regular basis as well. I'd trust him to provide some valuable info on products like he does on the boards here.
IMO, it serves no purpose to trash a product like some of the youtubers do. Especially that guy who calls everything "junk" and only thinks one brand of pressure washer will work for auto detailing.
