Ammo Frothe vs CarPro ECH2O on Ceramic Coating

**TBrio** · 03-26-2021, 11:50 AM

I recently had ceramic coating done on my car. Off of my last post, quite a few people recommended purchasing Ammo Frothe for waterless washes (thanks again for all of your help!). I'm in the Seattle area so keeping a clean car in the rainy weather is a difficult task.

I was about to bite the bullet on the Ammo Frothe kit especially after reading more about it and really being sold on the foam part of it. But, the installer of the ceramic coating recommends using CarPro ECH20 - I'm guessing it's because the ceramic coating is the same brand.

What would you choose? I'm a newbie to true maintenance and detailing of vehicles so the easier the better, especially for me!

Why is that?

I've never used Frothe, so I can't comment on it as a product. I've been curious about Ammo products for quite a while, but their prices have been a factor in keeping me away.

I have used ECH2O and as both a waterless wash and a QD spray. I typically never do waterless washes, but the couple times I've been forced to do a waterless wash, it has served very well. Today, it's my QD of choice for any car with a coating. I use it after nearly every wash. Great product and when you dilute it for various uses, it's really economical.

I bought 2 bottles of FROTHe last Black Friday and have yet to use it. The one time I washed my car all winter (due to almost not using it at all) I did a rinseless wash with N-914 instead of trying a waterless with the new product. I'll do a waterless only if the surface is mostly clean, don't want to be dragging a lot of dust around. Reviews looked pretty good though so I think it will be a good product.

Thanks, everyone. Maybe I'll try ECH2O first.

So my main reasons for wanting rinseless is because 1) it can rain here so often that I don't want to do a full wash each time and 2) I'm in a townhouse so I don't have much of a driveway.

If I can rinse off the car beforehand, would that be best? And then would I apply the rinseless product on the wet car, or wait for it to dry?

It's just kinda messier and time consuming to use. I've gone back and forth with it.

I have not used Frothe and it really does not peak my interest. But EcH20 is a solid choice. Its primary job is a waterless wash. But it is quite versatile in being used as a quick detailer and a rinseless wash. I have even used it with the 22ple clay bar as clay lube. You will enjoy it. Just note that it will take a few extra swipes to buff it off.
