Post application, dried the car and left it outside

I thought the rain was over but apparently a hr post drying, it's been raining cats and dogs.

Just wondering how does this effect Hydr02
 
Hydro2 is activated by water (stronger stream the better). Hydro2 LOVES water, eats it up like candy!!
 
LOL. So post activation/drying of car.....and then just sitting outdoor in straight up rain, it does not effect the intial cure/ change the durability ?
 
That's some black magic right there....

I still can't wrap my head on how it works......but it sure does !
 
Too dark when I get back tonight.

Pics won't be a accurate representation though ;-
UK applied 3 months ago. Reload topped 2'ish weeks later...
I've been playing around with a harsher pre-rinse foam. Not sure what this would do to my LSP.
This is the 2nd coat of H20 applied.
Way way way too much CP
 
10 hrs later and still pouring....


All I need now for my CP trifecta is to have Avi release a touchless soap - Reset V2. Foam, dwell , rinse and no traffic film left behind....

One can wish as least

Just trying to understand the science of how the application works

Is Hyd02 when sprayed onto the panel considered the application of said product ?
Is the HP rinse considered part of it, or just the part that ~activates~ the product.

Let's pretend I only spray the top part of a hood or door.
Then I rinse.
What is the effect of the runoff water from Hydro.
Will some bond to the lower portion of said panels ?

I suppose I'm asking also in part when one uses it on wheels.
Will the overspray get on tires. Should one dress/coat a tire beforehand if one's intent is to Hydr02 the wheels, just in case the overspray will then prevent the application of whatever goes on the rubber.
 
I'll do my best to try to answer your questions. But to be honest, I really don't understand the science behind it either...

Is Hyd02 when sprayed onto the panel considered the application of said product ? ...Yes, spraying HydrO2 at 1:6 onto the panel is what is considered the application of the product.
Is the HP rinse considered part of it, or just the part that ~activates~ the product. ...Immediately rinsing with a pressure washer produces a physical shock / ~activates~ and creates a durable silica shell. The "Hydroelectric bonding" function means HydrO2 reacts chemically with water contact. This means the coating transforms from Hydrophilic to Hydrophobic. The pressure from spraying with water accelerates the bonding of HydrO2 to the surface creating a Hydrophobic layer. .

Let's pretend I only spray the top part of a hood or door.
Then I rinse.
What is the effect of the runoff water from Hydro.
Will some bond to the lower portion of said panels ? ...IMHO, yes most certainly there will be some bonding to the lower panels from this. "Would I rely on this solely to protect lower panels"? ...No, I wouldn't.

I suppose I'm asking also in part when one uses it on wheels.
Will the overspray get on tires. Should one dress/coat a tire beforehand if one's intent is to Hydr02 the wheels, just in case the overspray will then prevent the application of whatever goes on the rubber. ...... To be honest, I've never thought about this. However, I've never experienced any over spray preventing or hindering the application of any tire dressings I've used.
