Is CarPro Hydro2Foam as great as it looks?

Did you search for Hydr02 to on the Store website? it comes in a spray bottle.

CarPro Hydro2 Touchless Silica Sealant 1 Liter

I did and I came up with this
CarPro Hydro2 Touchless Silica Sealant, spray on car wax

To me that bottle would be a pain to spray the whole car with. Think I'll try the foam and a foam cannon for my pressure washer.

Hydro2 Touchless Silica is a concentrate and must be mixed in a separate spray bottle (1-6).

Hydro2 Lite is ready to use and comes in a 32oz spray bottle.

I use a mist sprayer like the one they have here on AG. I generally use a dilution ratio of 1 to 9 and one panel at a time. It is important to rinse thoroughly and I tend to rinse adjacent panels as well while applying this to minimize raw product drying on me from overspray. If you are using Hydrofoam... its better to use the bucket method and do one panel at a time. Again... a power washer works better than a hose.






There is a ready to use version on AG as well... CarPro Hydro2 Touchless Silica Sealant 1 Liter

Good stuff but as mentioned do not let it dry or you will have to break out the clay and/or polisher to correct the mess.

I don’t think washing with Hydrofoam is worth it. I’ve got a bottle here and used it twice, and I had a couple spots where it quick dried on panels that splashed over even though I was using a bucket And sponge to wipe it on. Last time I had to break out my polisher to clean up a mess was in the early days of reload before the reformulation. Same type of streaking. I’d much rather do a rinseless with Ech20 and wipe on elixr. It’s a more precise procedure. Carpro (and everyone else) is trying to put Si02 in every product that they make, it’s not necessary. Just my two cents and opinion.

Lots of great info and things to consider. What does this do to your washing mitts and drying towels?

It really is a great product. Legit protection, good lubricity, decent cleaning power. But Do NOT let it dry. Work in small sections or work quickly.

Essentially this.

If you washed your car first with another shampoo and got it clean could you just foam it on and rinse it off or do you have to rub it in?

You could do that but if the car is not too dirty then hydro2 foam works just fine.

They are a coating company after all and hydro2foam is one of their original products. I will take it off your hands if you don't want it. I'll put it to use.

Nothing.
