Reload Questions

**Ronkh** · 01-25-2014, 11:04 AM

Can Reload be used as drying agent/qd over wax?

Benefit? Downside?

**2shiny** · 01-25-2014, 01:02 PM

yes it can. downside is that it is diluted and durability will be less

Ron,

ReLoad is made to be more of a top up sealant on top of CQ or coatings. I have used it as a drying aid and it did "work". But I felt like it was more of a waste of product as it is then highly diluted. Using it over a wax is ok. But you don`t get the same claimed durability.

Black car

Ok, now that i`m on puter and not stupid phone

Thanks Guys.

I`m really not terribly worried about the durability of it. I`ve got to coat the car, but wont really have time for a few weeks. The reason I wanted to do the reload, is because we have an eagle that it is taking target practice on the car and my gf will be starting school on Monday with an hr commute each way. So I wanted a temporary solution.

I did get some streaking on the hood (black car) as Troy described in one of his threads. No I did not dilute as he instructed. Didn`t seem to streak on the sides though.

Did you like it Ron?

One of the things I found with ReLoad is that less is best. Usually if you get streaking then you have used to much and need to re-buff it a little bit.

Actually I do

I think the area it streaked in was the first I did. So I probably didn`t have spray nozzle adjusted well.

I also did it with ww towel. If I wash the towel, is it ok to re-use as normal?

Absolutely. ReLoad is and inorganic spray sealant. It doesn`t "harden" like CQ coatings.

Thank you Sir

Always willing to help if I know what I`m talking about.

So, since I`m playing around with this stuff.....

For the Tahoe, next time I wash it, do I use Reload or Hydro ? (cloud cover permitting)

**TroyScherer** · 01-25-2014, 07:47 PM

Hydro2 is very impressive if you don`t already have protection. To spray it on and spray it off and have instant beading is very cool.

IMO you can`t go wrong with either. I have started using H2 more than ReLoad, but that is only because I am running low on ReLoad and have more H2.

Both will work for you.

If using H2 I suggest misting it on lightly and then spraying it off immediately, with no wait time. With the way H2 works this is perfect. I have heard of some guys getting streaking if they let it sit to long. And the streaking needs to be polished off since it is the concentrated H2 drying.
