Wow. Those SIO2 spray on are tough as nails…..
This winter alone, I’ve read of 3 seperatate instances where it appeared the end user had applied it wrong – aka, on a panel that was not as clean as it should, and the spray&wash sealants locked in the road film if not some dirt.
I’ve never really used this stuff for paint myself until late this year. I have been used Hydr02 as my wheel sealer since it’s inception, and it’s been a godsend.
I had a car I knew I was going to polish out so I decided to see what ill effects it would be on using Spray Sealant’s wrong. The day was overcast with clouds, mild 40’s, was ~outdoors~ for a short bit as the wife did some errands. Washed it & then sprayed/rinsed it. Noticed the side that was theoretically facing the sun (even though it was cloudy and grim) was HydroStreaked. The other side of the car was fine, vis-vis – same diluted bottled of 1:6.
APC wash 1:4.
Did not faze the streaks post review after rinse
Decided to APC wash again
APC wash 1:4 round 2.
Did not faze the streaks
Pulled it back into the garage.
Blew dried.
Sprayaway glass scrubbing with MF got the Hydro Streaks in the Glass.
Onto the paint. Reload got about 50% of the streaks on the panels, and the other 50 would not budge…
The test was to see how one would one remove said spray/rinse sealants when ~fresh and semi uncured~ and I gotta say, it’s tough sh1$. Me wonders, if for this particular reason or not, said Manuf. Rep did not respond on any advice at all when the ^^ above posters had asked for help re: the streaking and wrong application.
I guess wax/sealant goes full round circle.
Instead of good old fashioned nuba getting white and rock hard that one needs to chisel off, wrong application of these spray&rinse sealant`s will lead you down the right of a light cleaner polish to remove.
