Hello,
Not trying to reverse engineer the product but I'm very interested in what the actual mechanism is for the application and coating of HydrO2.
I really love the stuff and enjoy using it on top of see CQuartz, but i'm interested in how the rest of the run off might protect the regions of a vehicle that one would not otherwise see.
I think it's fair to assume that HydrO2 from the bottle already has some water content to it. It is then diluted 3 to 1 with more water before spraying, which tells me that water does not actually activate the product from a chemical mixing and interaction basis.
I see the claims of the so-called "hydroelectric bonding", but still desire to understand what causes what.
-are the spots that get a more direct spritz of 3:1 diluted mixture going to have a better/heavier/more complete coating?
-is it the "sudsy" runoff that is delivering the protection that is left on the surface?
-how can one be sure that the protection of HydrO2 has been evenly dispersed across the panel? It may bead like crazy at time zero, but the change over time, particularly for uv protection and contaminant sheet off (less concerned with beading per se).
- how pristine of a surface must there be in order for the product to actually apply and work? If one does real surface chemistry analysis it's easy to see that no surface is ever truly "pristine". However i'm primarily interested in the presence of physical dirt or grime that would be encountered and not easily removed in places like cowls and drains. Of course there UV protection is not critical however protection from standing water acid rain another chemical contaminants is still desirable in those places that people can't see.
-Similarly say you do a really bad job of cleaning your car and you leave some dirt in some spots. Is there a practical limit to what HydrO2 will adhere to and protect over? Will it coat/seal dirt into paint, or is it not sufficiently strong to do so?
Finally I have one other question regarding glass. My wife really likes the way that the wipers work after the car has been coated in HydrO2 because of how well they work. Is there any downside a reason why want to consider against using that product and using something more purpose specific?
Thanks very much for your time!
