    Re: Carpro Cquartz UK

    We recommend using Reload ,Echo2, Gliss or Hydro Lite on our coatings , we dont recommend other brands which we dont know what is the chemical composition used in it.

    Re: Carpro Cquartz UK

    Is Hydro2 supposed to help prevent water spotting? I'm quickly becoming a big Carpro fan. I have Ech2o, reset, reload and also Essence plus. Now, I'm reading about Hydro2 and am trying to understand all the different applications. I have read several posts referring to reload being fussy to use. I found it extremely easy to use, and great looking results. I have a fresh coat of UK, topped with reload. Leaving for Arizona in a couple weeks and want to load up on my maintenance supplies. I'll be away from my normal wash bay at home, so I'll be rinseless and waterless washes only. Long road trips and road grime with limited resources will be the norm for the next 6 weeks. I am expecting these products to make things easier for me.

    Re: Carpro Cquartz UK

    The mix ratio that TTQ just quoted is what I was wondering about. That is what I plan to use while we are away from home. The good thing is that my truck is white, usually isn't subject to water spotting. But, driving day after day that far, sometimes you hit rain and you just have to let things go for a couple days.

    Unfortunately waterspots are commin in coated cars especially if living in a hard water area, i tend to go over it with a quick detailer like ech20 mixed with distilled water which does the job. And mix 2oz of reload into it too!

    Reload seems to make the chrome look really good. As I was putting it over the CK it would get on the bumper. As I wiped it off, the chrome looked great. Would this be an effective winter sealant/protectant?

    Yes but people’s longevity can vary on it. I would reapply after 3-4 weeks if you get the chance with the weather

    Re: Carpro Cquartz UK

    Applied reload a few days ago and have found that the best practice is to spray onto a plush microfiber cloth and wipe in linear lines before buffing with another mf cloth. This way i have found that it doesnt leave any hazing. Also i find it best to use once a month (especially in winter) as it keeps the protection topped up and the car and coating looking like new.

    Thank you for your support, Hydro2 will not help preventing water spotting, its also sio2 base, Hydro2 is concentrated formula, you need to dilute it with water, you can do it in high power dilution 1:6 , or lower 1:10 for shorter sealing application , still durable enough.
