But is is hard to error when using a spray sealant. I hope they pull it and replace it with Hydro2 spray on without the water activation or something.
    You`re not the only one who has had this happen. Eldorado over on autogeek had the same issue with reload not beading or sheeting.

    Got rid of mine too. My dad thought it was quick detail spray and used about 2 oz on his hood... I just told him what it really was and told him to have at it.

    Dodo Juice Future Armor is fantastic. Easy on, easy off, awesome hydrophobic qualities that have lasted through many rains and under trees. I`ll try the Rupes Sealant at some point too.

    I never tried Reload due to the issues I read about but after using the Rupes and Kamakazi I cant see any need.

    What about the 2015 & 1/4 version.

    Any feedback on that?

    The TAC system is similar to the Carpro lineup. Anyone have any problems with their sealant?

    Re: Carpro Reload

    It depends on the date of manufacture. I believe the 2015 batch is bad. I think they reformulated (read added too much water, my opinion) after 2014. The CarPro boss posted on AG that they have sent new product to their retailers and you can return your bad product to the reseller for a new product. I`m just disappointed in CarPro for telling customers it was user error and not their product for so long. They made a ton of money selling a bad product short term, long term they lost credibility. I wrote them on their forum and was told it was Autopia`s problem, not theirs. It still burns me up. There are better products than Reload, much better.
