I've applied it and it works! High depth shine! Extremely, perfectly glossy! My parents noticed and love(d) it! I noticed while coating it, buffing it, and afterwards 😊❤ True crystalline shine

Hey Joshua! That's awesome, we're so glad you're enjoying your detailing products!!

[@carlitoswayz-Okan]

Can you please explain the difference when using hydro charge and hydro slick? I understand that the hydro slick is more like a wax and should probably go on after the hydro charge, but the hydro slick says it's good for a year. How long should the hydro charge last? Would using these two be a good once a year maintenance regimen?

I usually clay bar my car, then use black light and after that I use butter wet wax. So when should I use hydro charge in this process? 1- clay bar 2-black light 3-hydro charge 4-wax? Is this the correct process order? Love your guys products

[@darkcashyz]

I think you would have to do hydrocharge first, get it done, and let it age for at least 24 hours and then apply your favorite sealant and wax after

[@ChemicalGuys]

It would go: 1. clay 2. Hydro Charge 3. black light 4. wax This flowchart is a great tool: www.chemicalguys.com/blogarticle?cid=blog-article-detailing-flow-chart.

Happy detailing Joshua!!

[@TheRequiemist]

Awesome but Ive got some questions 1. How often should you apply 2. Can it be used for maintenance/rejuvenat existing coatingespecially other brand of coating 3. Does it harden like other coating where after you use a towel yo buff off you cant use it again 4. Is it only painted surfaces or plastic and rubber as well.

[@ChemicalGuys]

Thank you for reaching out! HydroCharge can last up to one year on clean and clayed surfaces. The precise duration of your application will depend on a number of factors, including: the climate where you live, how often you drive your car, how well you applied it, where you store it, and more. HydroCharge will revitalize your existing ceramic coating, increasing the shine, water beading, and protective properties. It will help your existing coating last longer, look its best, and protect the strongest. Due to its spray application, HydroCharge is an excellent way to maintain your existing ceramic coating, helping extending the periods between application. Yes, HydroCharge does harden, as long as you wash your towel or applicator immediately after application, you do not have to throw them away. If you do wait, the product on the towel will permanently harden, and you will have to throw it away. We recommend that you use a traditional creme based product such as a sealant or wax to seal and protect your glass. Hope we answered all your questions! Refer to this FAQ article for any further questions you may have, thank you! www.chemicalguys.com/article-hydrocharge-faq.html

[@franciscomartinez539]

Great product what is the difference between jet seal and hydrogen charge? What is better?

[@literallydante7]

Francisco Martinez id like to know this as well

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hello Francisco! To begin with, Jetseal is a synthetic sealant which contains nano-polymers which creates a nano-barrier within the pores of the paint. It will last a very long time on paint but doesn't necessarily deliver the most durable shine seeing to that it contains only gloss enhancers. HydroCharge is as thick as a second layer, or a sacrificial layer of protection over your car’s paint or clear coat. Ceramic coatings utilize nanotechnology, which is essentially tiny particles that form a hard layer of protection over the paint. The formulation of HydroCharge Ceramic is so refined that once applied to a surface, it works fast at sealing all the tiny pores, making the surface water-repellent. HydroCharge adds superior resistance to UV, scratches, chemicals, and heat. In essence, they are both very great products and measure differently in results in terms of protection and shine. Hope this answered any of your questions. Please feel free to refer to the HydroCharge FAQ'S if you have any further questions. www.chemicalguys.com/article-hydrocharge-faq.html

[@nicklausbiederwolf2544]

After Hydro Charge cures, how long do you recommend to wait before applying a sealant such as Jet Seal? Will Hydro Charge continue to harden over a number of hours? Thanks!

[@brents.2501]

Nicklaus Biederwolf, I applied jet seal 24 hours after and it really helped the car to feel slick. Hydrocharge will not give you that slick feel.

[@nicklausbiederwolf2544]

@@brents.2501 Exactly what I ended up doing.. if you read the Hydro Charge specs, it becomes chemically stable (stops hardening, polymerizing, etc etc) after 24 hours.. so I went glaze/Jet Seal/Pete's 53 after that.. interesting to hear what CC says, but I don't think I'd do anything differently

[@williambigman1827]

I put the hydrocharge on my car and hardly used anything out of the bottle. I would bet there’s enough to coat 15 cars in the bottle. It’s just how they say easy on, easy to buff off. The only thing is have 3-4 microfiber towels. They get loaded with the ceramic coating and start streaking. Good stuff I would recommend to any DIY person looking to put a coating on their car. I use SiO2 infused products from another company to keep the fresh just coated shine.

[@g4holla]

Woulda been nice to see the 50/50 shot vs. a wax to see how much more hydrophobic it is..

[@christianmiranda3283]

Can I apply this over a layer of glaze, wax, and sealant? Or should I use Clean Slate to use this product?

[@LovepreetAujla]

You should prep the paint and remove any existing products, etc. This spray bonds to the paint and as such, should be sprayed onto raw paint.

[@ChemicalGuys]

Great Question! HydroCharge would land on the protective coating category right before glaze because you want the coating to bond to the paint and not to the oils left behind from the glaze which would cause an improper bond! Make sure to prep the surface just as you would like any other coating such as Carbon Flex C9. HydroCharge Ceramic Spray Sealant is an ambient air cured coating. No special lighting or infrared light is required. The unique sprayable formulation starts to cure the moment it is sprayed out of the bottle and exposed to air. Once applied to the surface, the product will bond within 1-2 minutes. Always remove and buff to a perfect shine with a premium microfiber towel. After applying HydroCharge Ceramic Coating, it is ideal to keep it out of the elements in a dry and clean environment for 2-3 hours. Depending on the climate, the hydrophobic effects will continue to improve even more after 24 hours of being applied. Then you can feel free to apply any further coatings such as glazes, sealants or wax. Refer to HydroCharge FAQ'S for any further questions.

[@ChemicalGuys]

Great question! Yes, you can use HydroCharge as a stand alone product or you can use it as a topper of an existing ceramic coating, increasing the shine, water beading, and protective properties. Ideally, you would want to strip the surface from any type of grime, contamination and polishing oils from the prepping process and then use HydroCharge before anything else to achieve the best results possible. Happy detailing!

We recommend maintaining your coating and keep it looking great by using HydroSuds Ceramic Car Wash Soap! The high-foaming formula is the ideal choice to maintain your ceramic coating as it adds additional protection with every wipe of your mitt. Washing your vehicle is made easy after applying HydroCharge primarily because of the superior hydrophobic properties of the product. If need be, you may follow all steps again to re-apply a fresh coat of HydroCharge and maintain it. Make sure to check out HydroSuds, link will be down below.

Hello Joe! Sprayable ceramic coatings such as HydroCharge is a newer and easier form of applying a ceramic coating to your paint. But traditional coatings such as Chemical Guys Carbon Flex C9 coating will be superior in durability and shine because its a lot thicker and harder of a product due to it's more concentrated form.

Yes! HydroCharge is a hardening ceramic coating that penetrates deeply into the pores of the paint when properly prepped and will hold up to even the harshest elements. Assuming that you're using a pH neutral shampoo that isn't going to break down the coating in the long run then it would hold up for the full 12 months of protection.

[@postwick]

If you wash it immediately it should be ok. If you let it sit the coating will harden in the towel.

[@Mathieu_C]

What happen if you apply hydrocharge or hydroslick over a wax or sealant? I know that you answer a few question to how to apply this product. A professionnel juste recently apply a wax on my car but I would like to test your product. Thank you in advance for you answer!

[@kylea7864]

Do we need to throw away towels after using this products and what is the hardness level?

[@DanielChaves1984]

Yes or use said towels for dirty engine bays. The towel should not ever touch paint again once it has been used to apply a ceramic spray coating.

[@ChemicalGuys]

If you wash the towels and applicator after you finish applying you do not have to throw them away. If you allow them to sit, then yes.

[@CristianCastro-nx2nu]

How long does your spray ceramic last, and how close is it to a conventional ceramic?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hi Cristian! HydroCharge will last up to 12 months on the surface, providing a durable layer of protection that resists harsh elements and adds gloss.

[@vicsvlogsandmods698]

Do yall have any videos on wet sanding/buffing fresh paint?

[@joshuaguillory1070]

An equal, even coating! Perfect job 😀🌞😍❤👍😊💎🤗

[@adhisanjaya235]

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hello! HydroCharge can last up to 12 months.

[@adhisanjaya235]

[@mitchellhudson6]

Best product for ceramic protein protection 👍

[@ChemicalGuys]

Enjoy your detailing products!!

[@BoogieManSince1977]

Seems to be out of stock at the moment.... any ETA on new stock? Product looks aces

[@pack018]

@chemicalGuys can this be used as a drying aid or spray and wipe fashion? What are other ways of applying and/or reapplying it

[@ChemicalGuys]

We recommend that you properly apply HydroCharge to the paint with an applicator pad, letting it haze for up to 2 minutes and buff it right off with a microfiber towel. Make sure to refer to the HydroCharge FAQ to learn more about what HydroCharge is and how to use it. www.chemicalguys.com/blogarticle?cid=article-hydrocharge-faq

[@captaina4458]

Here’s my question. After I clay bar my truck and get the paint all smooth. I’ll be skipping a polisher since I don’t have one. I’d like to use this and ButterWetWax, which would I apply first?

[@captaina4458]

Matthew Deridder right on man, thanks for the reply.

[@Elreign96]

Is this applied before or after wax

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey there! Apply HydroCharge directly to bare paint before applying your favorite glaze, sealant and/or wax. - Happy detailing!

[@bentleycobbjr2491]

[@bentleycobbjr2491]

Chemical Guys I used nail polish remover and the sap came off instantly vs big remover and others. Did a good wash first, nail polish for sap then wax the whole Jeep. Looks like new now.

[@joshacevedo2274]

Do you have to throw away the microfiber towel and applicator after you’re done?

[@ChemicalGuys]

If you wash the towels and applicator after you finish applying you do not have to throw them away. If you allow them to sit, then yes.

[@tazznijjar7111]

What's the time gap when you need to wash or don't leave sitting for how long?? I might use it in the morning then not get a chance to wash my towels till evening..

[@duckdodgers2647]

How much do you charge to do this on a car? I have the same blue Kia. Do you have any locations in Texas?

[@meanf1502]

After you spray it should you clean the nozzle out to since everything else it going to hoarded up won't the nozzle to

[@ChemicalGuys]

Great Question! Yes, we recommend you clear out any residual product stuck inside the nozzle and sprayer stem to avoid product residue from clogging up the sprayer and to keep a clean contamination free result! Make sure to also check out HydroSuds Ceramic Car Wash Soap to maintain your ceramic coating! Happy Detailing! www.chemicalguys.com/hydrosuds-ceramic-car-wash-soap/CWS21216.html

[@annamarconetto1648]

on the instructions it states to keep the car out of the elements for 2 hours after application is done. i dont have a garage available. is leaving in the driveway acceptable?

[@eastcoastautobahn2479]

what is the best way to clean bugs and tar off the ceramic coating? will bug remover also remove the ceramic coat?

[@josem1596]

Try soapy water (The one that doesn't strip the was/coating)if you can get rid of them

[@Bradleyj3121]

Can you use it on glass?

[@PabloRodriguez-cy6ge]

yes bro

[@jaydenxong4817]

Do I need to throw away the applicator pad and towel after? Or can I reuse them?

[@ChemicalGuys]

HydroCharge will begin to harden on the towel and applicator unless it is washed immediately.

[@gordo5844]

Whats the difference between hydrocharge & hydroslick?

[@mrgamingdjthebeast2797]

Hey quick question, so is it okay if I use butter wet wax, then jet seal and then use this like on top of the sealant ? Thanks !!

[@ChemicalGuys]

Great Question! We recommend stripping the surface of the paint from any previous and or residual wax or sealant from the paint for HydroCharge to have the best bond possible to the paint. HydroCharge Ceramic Spray can also be layered. We have found in testing that 2 coats are more than enough for any surface we have tested. HydroCharge is layerable with all your favorite Chemical Guys waxes, sealants, and quick detail sprays. Simply wait for HydroCharge to dry and then proceed as you would on any other car. Refer to HydroCharge FAQ'S for any further questions you may have. Happy Detailing! www.chemicalguys.com/blogarticle?cid=article-hydrocharge-faq

[@mrgamingdjthebeast2797]

Oh ok I see so I just bought hydro charge so what I should do is first spray that and then on top of that I can layer wax and then sealant right ? Thank you very much !!

[@ChemicalGuys]

Yes! Just make sure to prep your surface properly before you apply HydroCharge and once removed then proceed to applying your favorite Chemical Guys poducts!

[@jershaus]

Link for prep? I havent washed my met blue mustang in a year. I live in lake havasu where we hit 115 regulaely.

[@eckos2310]

Can you make a video of the same product but being applied on a Harley Davison or Indian motorcycle?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Stay tuned for more motorcycle videos coming soon! 😉

[@eckos2310]

Chemical Guys cool thanks I greatly appreciate it. Look 👀 forward to it.

[@NVGMaasdijk]

is it necessary to tape plastic and / or rubber as soon as you apply?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey! Avoid applying HydroCharge to vinyl, rubber, and plastic trim as it may stain. Taping off these sensitive surfaces is a good idea.

[@NVGMaasdijk]

Chemical Guys thanks guys!

[@jean-matthieuolszensky6213]

Is it more forgiving than a more classic ceramic coat? For example, if you finish that hood, would you some sort of demarcation? Can it be removed with a product such as Clean slate?

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hello Jean! A traditional ceramic coating such as Chemical Guys Carbon Flex C9 is a lot thicker and harder of a product vs HydroCharge, therefore it would be a lot harder to remove with clean slate. Assuming that you want to strip the surface while it is fresh and hasn't fully cured then yes it can be removed. If not, then yes it can still be removed with further removal such as Wipe Out surface cleanser spray. HydroCharge is a thick ceramic coating and penetrates deep like a traditional ceramic coating as well and shouldn't be confused for as something light such as a spray wax or sealant. Make sure to stay tuned for future videos on this product. Happy Detailing!

[@jean-matthieuolszensky6213]

Chemical Guys great! When will be available in your Canadian store?

[@rcarfagna4817]

Can this be applied to wraps?

[@johnnyximenez9325]

Can it be used all over car plastics rubber ? Or only paint

[@ChemicalGuys]

Hey Johnny! HydroCharge is designed for painted surfaces.
