Thanks, just passing on what was shown to me....all the stuff I recommend is because it's a new way to do things that saves time, but is just as durable and quality as the old ways…

Hydro2 is interesting because it allows you to get protection to where you can't reach, like deep down inside the lug area without backbreaking t dious effort of Q-tips etc. etc.

2nd that! He is a huge asset and wealth of detail knowledge for all of us. I definitely have improved my detail methods while saving tons of time. I am actually enjoying details my vehicles again!

Found this online... How exactly do you apply it? I will be removing my rims from the car and will be able to give them a good cleaning.

EDIT: The reviews seem to be very mixed across Amazon...
As far as instructions:
You dilute it into a spray bottle, wet the part you want to apply this to, then hose that part of immediately, then go on to the next part, correct???

Lastly, I have several Backfire products you have recommended Glen, is this another, or this just redundant step?? I have Total polish and seal and wet diamond..
Polish and seal creates paint protection to be used every few months, wet diamond creates beading and just an extra step..

Where do this come in?

Glen definitely got me into detailing my car but he also ruined me. Now if I don't see that perfect reflection I loose my mind and get to detailing my car. I also picked up 18 chips over the weekend and 1800 miles so now detailing the car makes me wanna cry.

All the plans and products Glen has suggested to me have been absalutely amazing, hydro2 being one of them. I have 2k miles on the car since I put the hydro2 and I literally just rinsed off the dirt from my wheels and they are perfectly clean now, just by rinsing!
