Great review good to see there is some differences, I have been loving the Boost V2 at the moment

Awesome review.looking forward to your review on carpro darkside and carpro release

I would have liked to see how the two performed side by side on a panel that was treated with a ceramic coating. I always thought reload was a topper for ceramic coatings. Great review though. Love the content.

Thanks sandro I agree with you reload was no bead monster but it was so good looking and filled better than other simple sprays. Also good for carpro keeping filling and saturating characters instead of just making another bead monster product

I have Reload 2.0 and GTechniq C2 for toppers, Gyeon Wet Coat and DIY Quickbeads for water-activated SIO2 sealants. I also just ordered Dr. Beasley's Bead Hero. It may seem like overkill, but I use them all.

I got a free 50ml reload bottle with one of my packages one day, I used it and loved it, it wipes off really easily

I just checked it out and the prices on the product are absolutely ridiculous. Around 34 Euro for 500 ml and 60 Euro for 1 Liter for just a spray sealant is NOT okay. Even for half the prices they'd be pretty high in the spray sealant market.

I’ve noticed that V1 prices have also gone up slightly, Gyeon Cure is over £60 a litre now in the Uk, tempted to pick up some TAC Quartz Max as this is still currently £35 a litre.

Thanks. They seem pretty similar. I picked up a bottle of the original a week ago but haven’t used it yet. Based on your test results displayed, I like the original better. It looks to me that the original Reload actually sheets the water better although slower than 2.0.

Scott HD have tested the original Reload several times, and compared it to similar products. The original was allways one of the frist product to fail. It unfortunately never held up more than a month, where as a few of the other spray sealants held up over 6 months. This doesen't seem to be one of those products that will get close to that 6 month mark eather. I use 2 layers of Carpro C Quartz UK 3.0 on every detail, but I stopped using the original Reload a long time ago, and just spray on Hydro2 instead. It seems to last just as long, and the install is so much simpler. Some people complained about the original Reload being difficult to apply, but it appears that the reason was that the car had not been compleatly clean when they applied it. And maby other spray sealents are a bit more forgiving when the car isn't compleatly clean. Anyways, thanks for another perfect video, cheers from northen part of Norway

@groundcontrol6876

Жыл бұрын

If you were having this issue, you're either doing it wrong or the customers aren't maintaining their car properly. I used Reload to top CQUK3.0 and it didn't mask the coat or lead to premature failing. I think it's always a good idea (for those who can) to leave the freshly applied coating to bake out in the sun for a good while (an hour or a few if you have the time). I'd usually do the whole process of detailing and polishing the car for a few days and either coat it in the afternoon/night when I was done (and not top it), left it overnight in the shop to cure for a good 12+ hours, OR if it was one of those that I finished polishing very late, I'd just come over the next day, blow off the dust, IPA wipedown again and coat, finishing touches like wiping the glass again, and by then the sun would be out absolutely MURDERING and I'd take the car out and let it bake the coating for at least an hour, usually several (like 3+, depending on when the owner would be coming to pick it up), then I'd bring the car back in the shop, let it cool off from the A/C in the garage, and then I'd top it. Most people top it immediately after applying the coating and even though the instructions say that you can top it after you're done (an hour after it was applied IIRC, which will have elapsed by the time you're done coating it anyway), but I think this hinders the coating and isn't the best strategy for maximum performance and longevity. When you let it bake under the sun, you can literally feel the difference on how the paint goes from feeling kind of slick, to feeling really grabby. That's the coating curing. When you apply the Reload, it feels super slick. Either way, I've also done it the regular way that everyone does and I haven't had issues of it masking the coating once the Reload diminishes. The slickness just goes away. You sure they're not using fancy soaps or crappy quick detailers or waxes? That can cause issues. I've used other toppers "you're not supposed to" because they're not "ceramic" without issue as well, like Sonax BSD. Just gotta know how you pick em.

However I do agree with you. Lessons were learned. I normally will never let a customer's car leave without curing at least 12+ hours. And no toppers and if the customers can resist, no washing for the first 2 weeks. I find this gives the coating it's best chance of curing 100 percent. As for toppers for coatings that's another discussion for another day.

Reload was a lovely product to use but its problem was always durability, or rather lack of durability! To see that the new version is better looking, more hydrophobic and lasts longer is great to see. To me, it's still more of a top drawer QD, when you look at products that look as good but last a lot longer, like Meguiars HCW, which is one of my favourites (applied off label, on dry paint with an applicator and buff).

Hi,Sandro How is reload different to hydro2

@CarCraftAutoDetailing

Жыл бұрын

Hydro2 has a wet surface spray on and rinse off touch-less application, tends to be a little more chemical and environmental resistant and is diluted 1:6 for use. Reload is used undiluted, has a typical spray and wipe application, is super slick and tends to add more gloss and saturation.

Reload 1.0 was weakened over time because people didn’t apply it correctly and complained about streaking. CarPro have obviously found a way to add more Si02 to 2.0 whilst still making it idiot proof. They also planned to release a pro version but that sadly hasn’t happened.
