I dilute it in between 5/1 and 7/1 depending on how much is left over in the spray bottle when i remix new batch. I like higher dilution so I can use more sprays per panel when I do spray and rinse. I like doing 3-4 sprays per door or quarter panel (4-6 hood and roof) then rinse then check for missed spots usually need 1-2 more sprays you can see where it is not applied by the beading characteristics.
    Do you spray it on a dry or wet panel and wipe? I was thinking i would need to spray it on a wet panel and wipe it off so it could react with the water.

    Today I`m watching a blizzard blow in..So I`m on the Internet and found out about 2 new Flex machines coming out soon, an improved 3401 without the bale handle, & a 15mm free spinning DA. I was looking for a new machine, gotta find out more !

    looks like the spray and wipe method was more hydrophobic too. I`m curious at all the different ways hydro2 and hydro lite can be used vs reload

    Weather man said it might be the last decent day for awhile. So normal wash/interior was done. Finished with a much under rated product. ECO TOUCH SPRAY WAX. This is a good product. Never streaked or caused me issues. And left a really nice finish. It will stay clean for a day. Tires got CG VRP.

    Finished polishing my 4th BBS RS for my VW Mk1 Rabbit. Adams Metal Polish 1 and 2 on the lip and hex cap. Used Meguiars D156 on the baskets. Any suggestion on a sealant that works on the bare polished rim?

    Also washed the STi the other night at a coin op. Used DP Wash Wax with foam wedge. Then topped with Meg D156. Can`t wait for spring to finally get to detail this properly.

    Ooooo nice blue. Did you stick with the stock STi rims? I`m considering the WRX to replace my DD but don`t like the WRX`s dark grey stock rims at all.

    Mine is the special edition Hyper Blue. It came with gloss black forged BBS 18`s. I`m gonna use the stocks for this summer. I picked up a set of forged BBS EvoX wheels before winter for a winter wheel.

    My dad has a 15` WRX with stock 17`s. They look very `Toyota`ish. They don`t fit the car. Are you referring to those?
    My brother in law got a 16` WRX a few months back, his came on 18`s and they look much better on the car.

    The spoke pattern I`m ok with, it`s the dark color I`m not a fan of. I much prefer silver rims. Personal preference.

    Looking forward to seeing more photos of your Hyper Blue STi!!
