Prima Hydro works great as a drying aid, no need to dry first..saves you a step.

I read prima hydro is better applied to a dry car. I figure i'll lightly dry it, then apply, so there will still be a little water, but no full beading.

Ok, good. I didnt want to waste product over wax if it didnt work well. Looking forward to getting outside tomorrow and using it.

Hydro is for a wet car. That's why it's called "Hydro". However, you can use it for either.

"Even if your vehicle has an existing coat of wax, a spray wax can refresh the shine."

"To use Prima Hydro, simply wash your car normally and then rinse. While the car is still wet, spritz Hydro on the surface. Dry normally with a microfiber waffle weave towel. That's it! This versatile product can also be used as a quick detailer on a dry surface with a plush microfiber cloth. It's so simple. Why wax when you can Hydro?"

Prima Hydro Wax As You Dry Spray, spray wax (http://www.autogeek.net/prima-hydro-spray-wax.html)

I've topped 845 and BF sealant with it and loved the results. Slicked it up even more than it already was.

Give it a shot, you will not be disappointed.

I know it can be done. I can also use sandpaper to dry my car but I wouldn't. The "Even if it has a coat of wax..." part indicated to me it was not as effective, but i'll try it hopefully in an hour or so. Thanks...

Prima hydro wax as you dry, could be used over collinite. As mentioned above best results will be had on a damp car Before drying. It can be used dry also. Think of it as a maintainence product for your LSP. My spring detail with prima.....

And i use the wax as you dry about every other wash.

Well I just did this in the AM. I went to a coin operated self wash and first blasted the car down with water. I mixed ONR in a bucket with ten MFs, one gallon water and one capful ONR. I washed/wiped the car down. I then started up the wand again and hit it will the full pressure, then last minute was spotless rinse. Then I sprayed the roof down with prima hydro and dried it with a MF. The MF was wet so I then wrung it out, dried the rest of the car, and with a wrungout MF, I sprayed the car lightly as I did a final dry.

The result was very glossy. My cx5 in soul red looks like a wet red jolly rancher candy. However, I have some water spots left even though I spotless rinsed and used ONR and Prima? Also, I want to add the collinite fleetwax was amazing to see in action. Wow. Jaw dropping "suction" of water coalescing then sheeting off the car. I'm sold on that wax.

The ONR, not sure if I used it right. The Prima, easy to use. Smelled great, like watermelon? First time for me to use either and used them both together...

I'll get a pic uploaded when I get a chance to upload to my website...

Here's some crappy phone pics. It is much shinier and glossy in person. Also, I have another thread on orange peel on this new car, you can really see how bad it is...

Better picture of it today. The truck in the background was clean, you can see a big difference in gloss. I grabbed a bit of the bird-pooped car next to me too for comparison lol
