    Re: CarPro Hydrofoam users...please chime in!

    Something to consider, Roger. If your car has high spots from the WG application, then it's protected. The Hydro2 Lite will extend that protection, but it won't make it look any better.

    So, if you want the car to look better and lose the high spots, I'd polish, recoat and then use Hydro2 Lite to maintain.

    Of course, you can use the silica sprays to maintain until you recoat....

    Re: CarPro Hydrofoam users...please chime in!

    Your right!

    I feel the coating itself, buried underneath the Sio2-based toppers I've applied, is still doing it's job but those random high spots that rear its head make me wanna start the process anewCarPro Hydrofoam users...please chime in!

    Re: CarPro Hydrofoam users...please chime in!

    I will use on wheels and will not use on glass but since I don't have a foam cannon per say what do you guys think about using it mixed at 1:9 in a regular 1000 ml Kwazzer to apply it?

    I wanted to use it in my Worx hydroshot but it would be almost impossible to keep it off of glass, much more control in the normal Kwazzer.

    Question Re: CarPro Hydrofoam users...please chime in!

    Sorry if this sounds silly but do you wash the car with your regular soap first, something regular Bathe and then go over the car again with this, the directions kinda confuse me a bit, thanks!

    Roger, you can use it as a standalone wash. You foam up a section and then wash with a mitt. I do this in sections. This is unlike other foaming products, since there is a concern for streaking if it dwells too long.

    Re: CarPro Hydrofoam users...please chime in!

    Here's what I was going to do originally:

    -1:9 ratio in my soap dispenser and foam the entire car, this way things begin to break down.

    -place my wash mit on top of the car and spray some mix on it and begin to wash.

    -dunk my wash mit into the rinse bucket and move along the car, spraying more foam along the way if need be.

    -Once done, foam the entire car again and THEN rinse off and dry.

    Btw, my CarPro Hydro2 Lite wash was 1/2 frozen, do you guys think it'll be ok?

    I use HydroFoam a lot with 2 of our cars but don’t recommend using it in a foam gun/canon. You don’t want get it on everything especially the windows. I fill my wash bucket with about 4 gallons and add 3oz of HydroFoam. Wash a panel at a time and try avoid getting on windows.

    Yes but with hydrofoam I get it way worse than normal. Guess I’ll just have to be more cautious when I’m using it.
