Key features:
- Super easy and quick way to get your car protected.
- It's as easy to use as a detail spray but has the traits and strengths of products like silica spray sealants (CarPro Reload, Gyeon Wet Coat, etc).
- The simplicity of the installation makes HydroSilex into the perfect coating for the DIYer.
- Once applied HydroSilex cures into a durable transparent ceramic layer on top of the substrate. The new top layer adds shine and protects the substrate from getting in contact with contaminants, UV, minor scratches and other harmful chemicals.
- Can be used as both a maintenance coating for traditional coated surfaces or as a stand-alone protection.
- Can be used on virtually any surface. It can be applied to bare metal, stainless steel, aluminum, glass, plastic, wood, fiberglass, stone, marble tiles, automotive paint, gel coats and more.
- It can be applied using both wet and dry methods (dry method yields better results).
- HydroSilex Recharge can last 6 months in real world conditions.
- HydroSilex Recharge is great for use on Paint Protection Film.

I have been using this product on my vehicle that has a PPF on it and love it. I apply it with the dry method and it is very easy. The shine is amazing and the water beading is fantastic. I reapply it about every quarter to “build up the layers”and because it is so easy to apply. Thanks for your many reviews on so many products.
Thanks Tim! How did you discover my channel?
Pan TheOrganizer I have a friend that has been following you for a long time and he told me about your channel. Living here in Southern California, we do not have the extreme weather like you do, but we do love our cars. By the way, I love your setup in your new home. What a great detailing area in your garage. You deserve the best because you are the best.
Great video sir, I appreciate all the videos you make thanks 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks!
Wow, not only is it more affordable than other ceramic products, it's also more user friendly. Will definitely buy this one!
Yes. It is great value for money.
APPLYED THIS TO MY 2012 KIA SPORTAGE TODAY MAN IT SHINS BETTER THAN SOME NEW CARS.TAKE YOU'R TIME AND DO THE MAIN JOB OF MAKING CERTIN THE CAR IS REAL CLEAN AND APPLY THE COATING...GREAT STUFF.......
This is one of the best products i've ever used! Living in Sweden with rain, snow and salty roads you need protection that last and makes the washing process easier.
How long does it last?
I used this in the barrel of my black wheels to keep them clean longer and it seems to be working well.
Thank you for reviewing this product , their isn’t much reviews on it
My pleasure!! There was so much talk about this product that it came right on time for me to see if it was good. I want to make sure my viewers get products presented to them that I would personally use and that I vetted.
Pan buddy great review!!
Thanks!!
Appreciate the review. Just applied this directly after wash, clay bar, wax and the results are awesome. Super easy to apply using the "dry" method and took about 30 min to cover the entire car. Heat and rain are brutal down here in Miami and the water beads up and slides off like nothing I've used before. It's ironic because every time it rains, which is every single day from May-Sept, my car actually gets a mini wash. I have a white car and it definitely stays cleaner for longer periods of time with this stuff
Hi! Glad you like it. Don’t forget to not apply it over wax next time. We never mix waxes/sealants and ceramic coatings. Try to apply it as a stand alone protection on paint or as a topper over an existing ceramic coating.
How did you discover my channel?
This product is really good in my opinion , didn’t really work the first time I used it (didn’t really put in the work the first time) , but I redid it and left my truck sitting in the garage for a whole week with the product on , was not smooth until I buffed it really good while the recharge was on my truck for a whole week . Added a second coat let it sit for another week , buffed it really well again. Works really well and it looks like I have a bubble shield around my truck when the sun light hits at a certain time . I recommend this product . Not saying it’s better than any other product , but this is the first ceramic product I tried i would give it 5 stars if you put your time into it .
Love this stuff. Been using it for years.
Great option, Pan! I’ll try it for sure!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome video Pan
Thanks! :)
Hey, Pan! I bought a bottle 2 weeks and I say this:
- The gloss and shine is better than a wax (I am a Meguiar’s wax fan).
- I like the fact that I can spray any surface on my vehicle and buff off, including glass.
- The ease of use is not bad. Usually, with a spray wax product, I would need to go through one to two passes with a dry microfiber to address streaking; however, with Hydrosilex, I never found myself needing to buff because I did not observe streaking. I have black paint and this is the first with Hydrosilex that I end with a uniform (if not perfect) shine as I still have yet to see the usual streaking from the traditional waxes.
- I have used other OTC products before, but with Hydrosilex I noticed the tightest water beading I have ever seen. The water beads were a half a circle in shape, not the usual flat beads seen after a good wax. Water beading on glass is not like Rain-X - the water beating is smaller than Rain-X and the smaller beads may give you visibility problems. So I’d personally stick with Rain-X on glass.
- I have applied this product twice so far. I still have yet to go through a heavy rain event to get a good perspective on persformance.
Overall, I’m satisfied with this ceramic-booster product.
Awesome real world feedback Alex! Thanks for sharing! Yes I agree, gloss is pretty good for a spray on wipe off product!
Alex915 great real world review indeed...I would like an update when you have one 😂
Kyle Fonrose Yesterday I cleaned my wheels with the intention of applying hydrosilex to the wheel coating. I made sure the wheels were cleaned (I just came back from a 2 week road trip and the build up with definitely an issue). Anyway, wheels were cleaned and I decided to apply the hydrosilex via the rinse-off method. Once I rinsed off the wheel cleaner off the wheel, I sprayed a thin coat of hydrosilex on the wheel surface, making sure I sprayed around the spoke areas and a few spritz were applied inside the wheel well too. Finally, a few sprays were applied on the front face areas and I followed up with a water rinse to spread the hydrosilex around and off the wheel surfaces.
My first observations: Water immediately beaded like no other. A little history: I have never applied a wax/polish/protectant on the wheel surfaces at all since I’ve owned my vehicle. So hydroxilex performed exceptionally well for my observations and water beaded around all surfaces. So I was pleased knowing that the wheels were protected.
My second observations: I noticed an immediate pop in gloss on the wheel surface. Again, I’ve never treated my wheels before so this was a nice effect I never thought possible on a wheel. So color me impressed.
I used a garden hose for the rinse-off method. So knowing how this applied on the wheel, I would suspect that applying on paint would yield similar results; however, to Pan’s point, maybe applying with a MF towel would more than likely yield the optimum results of hydrosilex on your paint.
What about the plastic trim? Did it leave any discoloring?
Alex915 water beading on your paint doesn’t equate to paint protection. Remember that. Hydrophobic properties just means it doesn’t like water, that’s it.
Would this still be the number 1 choice in this ease of use product category for DIY ceramic coating - almost 2 years later?
Just ordered me some! Thanks pan!
Thanks for watching Shawn! Let me know how it goes once you try it! ;)
Thank you! I have learned alot from you and your videos!
I’ve been using the Marine version throughout the Canadian winter here on my daily mustang. It’s decent but gets removed easily with a basic hand wash even with a ph-neutral soap that isn’t supposed to remove waxes or sealants etc.
I gave it to my wife . It works decent on our giant glass shower and makes the glass easier to clean. The chemical guys V07 sealant detailer and even Lucas slick mist are far better in terms of temporary slickness and shine/gloss. The hydrosilex barely adds any gloss.
This stuff is amazing. I have been using it for about a year. It is so fast and easy that I hit my cars about once a month. What is amazing is that dirt just doesn't stick to your car. It can rain and your car still looks perfectly detailed. I only have to wash my cars every two weeks or so now.
Thanks for watching!
What country are you watching from? Hello from Canada 🇨🇦!
Southern USA. Love your channel!! Just detailed my engine after watching one of your videos.
That's the spirit! I love inspiring my viewers to go out there and enjoy detailing their cars! :)
Thanks, Pan👍😎
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Big thumbs up for pan
Thanks Lennard!
Hey Pan
Would love to hear your thoughts on when to compound/ wet sand/ polish etc.
As well as your thoughts about how fast the clear coat wears off due to paint correction.
Love it. Phil just sent me one in a mystery box... I can't wait to test it out!
Thanks for watching!
Pan TheOrganizer sure thing my dude!!
Salut Pan ! Je viens d'acheter ma première voiture, et tes vidéos me donnent envie d'en prendre super soin. Merci à toi pour les conseils. Support from France ;)
Merci Mathilde! Content de savoir que j’inspire mes auditeurs à bichonner leur voiture! 👍🏻
Comment as-tu découvert ma chaîne?
Pan TheOrganizer J'ai découvert ta chaîne en tapant ''comment laver sa voiture comme un pro" haha 😋
Peut-être peux tu me renseigner ! L'ancien propriétaire de la voiture avait des plastiques protecteurs aux portières, il les a retiré pour la vente, maintenant sur la portière avant côté passager il reste de la colle sur la carrosserie, je ne sais pas quoi mettre pour retirer la colle j'ai peur de retirer le vernis de la voiture !
Before I get to my initial impressions here's my cars current state:
Polished out with 303 compound, polish and finishing polish, done in very early June. I then 2x's TAC system Power Plus Sio2 paint coating (70%). About 6 weeks later I topped it with TAC systems Moonlight, a 50% Sio2 product. Then about 2 weeks ago I applied TAC system 1 step Master, a 25% Sio2 product.
Now at this point your wondering this..."why", fair enough and it is simple, I like building a shine and more importantly maintaining it. In between washes, using all 3 Gyeon washes, CarPro Hydrofoam and TriNova washes, I've sprayed TAC system Quartz Max, a 5% Sio2 product, even made my own spray wax using 2 oz of QM, 2 oz of CarPro Echo and a gallon of distilled water.
Ok, now that your up to speed, here is my take on Hydrosilex...AWESOMELY EASY TO APPLY! I've established my Sio2 base laid down and this product didn't have any compatibility issues with TAC systems products, not at all. I did about 3 sprays per panel and used a short nap mf towel and that was it but I ended up using 2 of them, keeping it fresh. I should also mention that prior to application I did an AMMO NYC Frothe WW to my car, so a clean surface was a given! Btw, that product is amazing, I mean really, really amazing!
In closing you might be wondering what exotic car I did all of this on, look at the avatar, I'm just practicing for when I get something very very special but the Hope's and dreams haven't come in yet, LOL. My car currently has no stripes and blacked out housing lights, commonly called "turbo" lights.
Very nice video. Shiny!
Thanks Marc!
Thank you so much for the review Pan. I love how versatile it is and can be applied to many different surfaces of the car.
Thanks!
very good product by the sounds of it, similar to Angelwax's Enigma QED Ceramic Detailing Spray -- that lasts for months also, longer than Wetcoat or Aquacoat and not used on a hot day.
been waiting for this review
I have used the marine version of this product on my car.....it’s fantastic!
The marine version is more concentrated and durable for the marine market but will work on cars too.
Thanks for watching Blake!
How did you discover my channel?
Hey Pan....can’t say that I recall. Must have been doing a search on ceramic reviews and stumbled across you.
Your videos are very well done.
Hi Pan, great video. Do the microfibre towels need to be thrown out after use like other ceramic costings? Thanks
You can just wash them and reuse. :)
Hey Pan, nice review! Will this coating be ok to apply over racing stripes?
Yes
Can you do a comparison between hydrosilex and Meguiar's hybrid ceramic wax? Love both of those products I found hydrosilex needs 2-3 coats of it to be super slick!
Pan Quick question. I had a vinyl wrapped roof. Any tips on cleaning that or anything I should stay away from?
Pan thanks for this the more you use the better it gets to I heard way better then the f11 garbage I bought glad my brother in law bought the f11 garbage of me now got this
Hi Pan, would you use this one or HydrO2 instead? Thanks for the awesome videos as always!
If you want to use the wet method, HydrO2. Dry method, Hydrosilex.
Hi Pan, you should do a comparison with this and Rain X on the Windshield to see whats better? Love all your Vidos.
Thanks Dave!
What do you do for paint chips on your customers' vehicles?
Hey Pan !!! Great video/review as always!! 👍 Wondering if you’ve used or given thought of doing a video on Adam’s Ceramic Wax ?!?
Thanks! Haven't tried that product yet.
@@PanTheOrganizer The good news is you received the paste wax in your Christmas mystery organizer.
In my opinion Recharge is a bad name for the product. The name Recharge sounds more like a ceramic coating maintenance product such as by using Recharge after every wash or two.
It is a ceramic infused Si02 sealant. They do advise it being good for a 9H coating maintenance product. That's what I use it for.
You should do a comparison video with ceramic selants/ SiO2 spray selants
Salut Pan ! Excellente vidéo, fidèle à ton habitude ! Comment l’acheter au Canada par contre ?
Thanks again Pan Does it create a glass like coating on the paintwork. Mark
Not as glossy as a traditional ceramic coating, but that’s the tradeoff for ease of application.
I do sometimes on my autobiography. Depends on the product.
As always your videos are quality. Question, is it okay to use a detail spray such as Adams Detail spray on top of this product for maintenance in between full washes?
As long as there are no waxes in the detail spray, sure.
i have Un-related question ...Pan what can i use to clean cloth seats in a vehicle?
Most polished Mazda in the world
Rixis besides mine haha
Great review. I bought my first bottle recently and have a few questions:
1. Can this be used on the black plastic bumper, black hard top (Jeep Wrangler), black window trim, etc? I know I have tried other products on the black plastic and they seem to create a foggy look.
2. Have you used it on glass shower doors to shed water? How about interior dash/door panel materials?
1. Yes. 2. Never tried that.
Hi Pan, thanks for the good info on the new product. Could we apply more than 1 coat like cquartz, will will give us more thickness and durability?
Nope. Only one coat is needed.
Good video thanks
Thanks!
Hi Pan,
Great video as always. I’m going to try this product. What should I use for a maintenance wash? Ph neutral soap? Any specific brand work better than other with this product?
Thanks
Any pH NEUTRAL soap of your choice that doesn’t contain waxes. CarPro Reset, Gyeon Bathe, Chemical Guys Glossworkz, etc.
Pan, thanks for doing a video on this product. I have watched a couple of videos, done by other people, and yours was by far the best. Do you think it is as good as a decent wax? Can you use this over a wax? Results were amazing and thanks again Pan! Keep up the great work.
Thanks Todd. Don’t mix waxes with ceramic coatings. This will outlast a carnauba wax and about equal durability to a good paint sealant.
Hydrosilex is superior to wax plain and simple. Whether it’s the ease of application or the longer lifespan, I’ll never wax again. I used their Marine line for all my glass and headlights too. Getting ready for winter ❄️. The snow just pushes right off and salt spray is not an issue.
Wow that was easy, I'm so replacing my sealant+wax regiment with Hydrosilex. Thanks for another awesome product review Pan.
Thanks Ian! Wait til you see tomorrow’s video (Sunday)!
This is a stupid question and it doesn't related to any car detailing at all but do you know how to clean leather shoes ? Cause my shoes are full of "scratches" and how do I remove them ? Any tips to do that ?
Thank you Pan. I already had this product before watching this, but just watching your videos makes me more confident I made a good choice 😂 I notice you use Gyeon WetCoat on wheels frequently, would you recommend that over Hydrosilex for wheels?
Yes as Wet Coat is easier and quicker to apply.
Pan, ceramic coatings are silica base products which are also called Silicon dioxide, SiO2, based on what I read, which is very harmful to humans respiratory system. Do correct me if I'm wrong. Is there any precautionary/harmful labels on HSR or any other ceramic coating products that you have tried before? Another question is how do we wash ceramic coating off our hands if accidentally spilled? Can rubbing alcohol do the job? Don't get me wrong, I'm just a health conscious guy.
Thank you. How does this compare with Carpro Reload? That is also a spray and designed to top off Cquartz ceramic coating
Similar. Both great.
Pan...Great video as always! How would you compare this to Maguires Fast Finish?? Thanks. Blessings from USA
Both are very good. Hydrosilex is a bit glossier, UFF is less expensive.
Thanks for the videos. Any idea if this stuff has any filling abilities for minor swirls? Also, can this be layered for multiple coats?
No filling abilities. This is a pure protection product. No need for layering.
Hey pan, what are your thoughts on getting a tool for undercarriage washing?
And what are your thoughts for getting a Canopy or a Gazebo for those who dont have a garage to detail cars like myself?
If you would make a video review on them it would be very helpful. Thank you
Very few people are interested in undercarriage washing. Maybe those who keep their cars in a museum or as trailer queens. A simple rinse with a pressure washer will do. I have a 20 degree curve at the end of my Mosmatic wand which allows me to quickly spray the undercarriage if needed.
And a canopy is a great idea, mobile detailers use that all the time, for those who don't have a garage and want to guarantee they can work in the shade.
Reminds me of CarPro hydro2 with a slightly modified application .
Yes and it lasts longer. But use the dry application method. Better results.
hi Pan, great vid again.
I was wondering if you could do a video on how to safely remove dust on a relatively freshly detailed car? I always have dust on my Alfa 4C after a couple of days after washing it. Always anoying to rinse off and dry (or leave it as is), but I always fear of scratching the car (dust could contain sand particles). As far as I have seen, not scratching has happened with my techniques.
Hi! The first step is to get a good quick detailer. I did a video on a great DIY version here: czcams.com/video/Kn8wYn_P9Js/video.html
Lightly mist it on the panel and gently wipe in a straight line with a plush microfiber towel. Flip the towel and lightly buff.
Only do this in a clean, slightly dusty car. Anything more than that, use a traditional wash.
Hi Pan, how does this protect against bird etchings? Would it be stronger with more than one layer? I’m trying to decide which coating to choose. CQUK 3.0 is currently the top choice, but lack of garage is my problem. Great video as always !
CQuartz will outlast any spray on coating for sure. You could use Hydrosilex during maintenance washes on your CQuartz. Great combo.
For bird droppings, as they’re acid in nature, I still recommend to always remove them as quickly as possible.
Pan could you test similar product called : FICTECH CAR GLISS
Also, is this prone to attract tough-to-remove water spots like some ceramic coatings?
Can I add this to my Matte finish wheels? Thanks. Awesome video
Yes.
Would this be similar to Gyeon Q2 Can Coat? Or Meguiar’s Ultimate Finish? I bought those before seeing your product review :/ Great video as always!
All great products. Can Coat will last a but longer. UFF is a sealant, not a ceramic coating. Hydrosilex is a ceramic sealant.
Hi pan, love your channel
Can this be applied on top of chemical guys/klasse paint sealants? Thanks
No. You don’t mix sealants/waxes with coatings.
So in order to apply this, i have to wash the sealants and waxes off with dawn soap equivalent?
@@PanTheOrganizer Dr. Pan.. What about Hydro SIlex followed by P&S Bead maker? Hydro SIlex as the foundation with bead maker as the sealant? Amicalement...
Looks like a great product especially for vehicles that are parked outside 24/7 in all weather elements. As it can be applied to most surfaces, I have the roof and bonnet (hood) where the clear coat has gone, and has patchy paint on the roof. Could this be used on these areas for some type of protection from outside contaminants and bird droppings etc ?
Currently I use CarPro HydrO2 silica spray on the whole car for protection and it changes the look of these 2 surfaces to a dull satin finish as there is no gloss due to no clear coat. Thanks in advance for any comments. Keep up the excellent videos.
Yes you can use it on all your surfaces. Don’t expect gloss enhancement on a surface with no clear coat though. But it will protect against UV rays, chemicals and bird droppings. But always clean droppings as soon as possible as they will still etch a coating as they’re acid in nature.
Thanks for your help pan can you put m fast finish on top of c g jet seal. It won’t remove j s thanks
Yes
Think is the same system as ServFaces 365 spray coating. Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching!
Awesome video! I am in the market for a product like this: easy spray ceramic coating! Lots of products available now, so it's nice to have a direction to go towards.
Thanks for watching!!
William Wong easy to spray ceramic? Which all products?
Hydrosilex is the innovator for care care, the rest are knock offs, they won’t survive the market place.
Great video & thank you. Just one question.
So, 6 month after 1st application, can this apply again? Or is just a good for one time application?
You can reapply as you wish to reinforce the base coat.
You can apply after every wash if you want, but I think after every two washes is just right, great product, great price too. Also can be over a film like Xpel which I have then ceramic coated. I use the recharge to keep the ceramic up to full operating potential.
Looks like I’m gonna be buying this lol! Just one question
When I next wash the car after applying this can I use carpro hydro as a topper? I know waxes and sealants are a No No with ceramic coatings
Yes you can use other silica based products as toppers if you want.
Pan can you use this on the glass and head / tail lights?
Absolutely.
Hi Pan, I am looking at HydroSilex recharge and Angelwax corona synthetic wax for ppf. Could you suggest which one would be better ? Thanks ! Really amazing videos !
Neither. I would recommend something even better: a ceramic coating specifically formulated for PPF. Watch my video: czcams.com/video/7RCgqdGrvrA/video.html
@@PanTheOrganizer thanks a lot, I already have halo on ppf. But weather and conditions in India are brutal. I need to keep up the gloss and need something for regular maintenance. I tried gyeon PPF protect but it severely lack gloss. I was inclined towards usage of Gyeon Q2 wax but not sure. I did try Griots show car wax, decent results but too expensive for daily runner. So looking for something to apply every month and keep the gloss !! Thanks
Hi Pan, this is by far the best review I have seen on Hydrosilex. I have a 2018 Volvo XC60, and added a Diamondbrite paint protection when I got it. Do you know if this can be applied over Diamondbrite??
It can be used as a topper on pretty much any ceramic coating.
What is the diffrence between gyeon wetcoat And Hydrosilex?
Hi Pan Do you have to throw the microfibres way after using it. I heard somewhere about it coating the cloth and may cause scratches with ceramic coating. Also does it create a glass like coating on the paint. Cheers
It is a ceramic coating, just not as durable as full-on 2 or 3 year coatings. Tradeoff between long term durability and ease of application.
Thanks for uploading a new video. I enjoyed it as usual. I would like to ask a question that has nothing to do with this video if that's okay?. Do you ever work on the bottom of the car? And by that I mean the part where you can see the full length of the exhaust pipe.
Not sure I quite understand your question...
Imagine standing completely under your car, if you look up there's a surface. do you ever clean that? And if you do how ?. I don't know if it makes any sense what I'm saying. I'm from Europe and my English isn't that good. I apoligize.
No I don’t. That’s mainly for trailor queens or cars in museums. I mainly do daily drivers.
Can you wash a house they put it after you get done putting it on after after getting it done can you put the stuff on the house then spray it off would it make it shine
How's it going Pan Can you use on Carbon Fibre Cheers
Sweeeeet! Would you prefer using ceramic coating plus hydrosilex or matt’s preference of collinite and powerlock after compounding and polishing ?
I’m a coating guy by far. Look at what I applied to my own new BMW M550i: czcams.com/video/dsCmJJDP3xo/video.html
Loads in interesting product, what are the steps to strip and re-coat after it loses its properties (the 6 month mark?) Thanks!
None. You just reapply.
Pan, I understand that you can use it on plastic, did you use on the Mazda black trim on the bottom/wheel well trim?
You certainly can.
great video pan.ive been using 4 about a year.truly love it.i don't bother with traditional waxing or sealing.i get better result tons of time saved custom ers love the look..
I agree Richard! If you've been using it for over a year, you probably had the original formula. You should try this new formula, works even better!
Richard Seem ...is this used on a DD over the 4 year period? If so, how long does it REALLY last?
Love it I’ll probably give it a try
Thanks for watching Hunter!
Pan TheOrganizer no problem I love the videos help me out a lot!
Great! What’s your favourite video on my channel so far?
Pan TheOrganizer I love the paint polishing tutorial. but my favorite is the best wax combo I love the insulator wax it’s easily the best wax I have used by far!
Thanks for the feedback!! :)
Hi Pan can you tell me please ASAP can you apply on top of a sealant. Thanks
No. Never mix sealants and coatings.
Hey Pan - I realize you have a ton of questions thrown at you, just another couple to add to the list.
1) you mention about using this on your rims, but you’ve also mentioned some other hydrophobic material to help keep the rims cleaner longer and easier to clean. Which product have you awarded the best in this category?
2) do you have a forum or other place where you list things like this for people to get answers like this so you don’t have to answer the same questions more than once?
Thanks and keep up the great work.
turbojr74 ...well I'm not Pan but Sonax wheel shield is an outstanding product to keep your wheels cleaner, longer. I've been using this for product since it came out over a year ago and I can attest to it lasting 2 solid months. My 2 monthes is on a DD that's washed twice a week and I always use wheel cleaners and my trusty Speed Master wheel brush to get into everything, also a small barrel brush for around the lug nuts. The wheel needs to be 100% dry when you spray it on. It's an aerosol, goes on clear but may look glossy at first it does dry and leaves the wheel natural looking. Can't endorse this product enough!
Klasse Act thanks for the reply. I’ll look into that one. Pan once mentioned in another vid I can’t find about a hydrophobic spray he like to use on his rims but I can’t remember which product that was.
probably carpro hydro2 ;)
You should try mothers cmx ceramic coating spray and do a review please and thank you.
Dude it’s literally the sixth latest vid did u not look for it?
Hey Pan compared to Meguiars Fast Finish which one has better gloss and is more hydrophobic as both are easy to apply?
Hydrosilex for the two points you’re asking. Both as easy to apply.
Bonjour Pan. Merci pour cette vidéo. Je suis dans le domaine du nettoyage industriel de locaux depuis 1992.
Je me suis lancé dans celui de l'entretien des véhicules et bateaux depuis 2 ans.
Cependant ma question est la suivante: comment enlever une protection céramique sur une carrosserie de voiture avec le produit hydrosilex, carpro reload, hydro2 , cquqrtz Uk ou tout autres protection céramique.
Merci et surtout bonne continuation.

I was given a bottle of this product. I applied it wet on my ATV and it gave the plastics a shine with water beading properties. Pan, do you think it would give extra protection applied wet after a maintenance wash on top of your favorite sealant/wax?
It’s best to apply this to a dry surface.
Can Gyeon Wet Coat be used as a dry application like this product or is it a rinse off only product?
Wet Coat is only to be used on a wet surface and immediately rinsed off (like CarPro HydrO2). Hence the term “Wet Coat”
Pan,
I was about to buy Adam’s Polishes ceramic wax as a product to maintain my coating. But after seeing this video, I’m considering the HydroSilex. Which one do you feel would be better?
I didn’t test the Adams...
Reviews look great for on the paint, but what about under the car for a winter rust prevention?
Hmmm, not sure about undercarriage use. You could try contacting HydroSilex and ask them...
I’ve been debating to buy this product and now I would because pan is using it. What if the car currently have a sealant and a collite wax can I spray this after wash?
No. It has to bond to bare paint or to a ceramic coating. Don’t mix ceramic coatings with waxes or sealants.
Have a new car that I applied meguiars fast finish on. What should I use to prep for this and Remove the fast finish? IPA wipe..clay bar? What's your thoughts?
Machine polishing
Where can I buy this in Canada? Amazon.ca does not sell it. Help!
If you’ve already put one coat of car pro UK addition and the car has been already done and completed can you put a second coat on afterwards say a week later? If so what would be the process do you need to lightly buffet first or just wash it and apply another coat?
Thx in advance
I guess you could apply a second coat (wash, then dry, then IPA wipe, then apply coat) but at that point, maybe you'd be better off adding a true top coat like CarPro Gliss which will give you more slickness while you're at it... Not sure how a second coat of CQUK would bond after a week of the first one curing... Never tried that.
