Good detailer/booster for sealants

I use BF CS sealant and I am very happy with, but looking for a detailer/booster for in between rinsless washes, when car has some dust and needs a little boost or cleaning. I am looking at BF Wet Diamond Polymer spray or even thinking about trying Carpro ECH20, since thatbis multiple purpose. Thoughts?

I never had any luck with the blackfire polymer spray. It was expensive and it didn't last too long. I just mixed up the ECH20 in a bottle to test out, I'll let you know, the ech20 rrinseless that I just used today was amazing.

The big thing I like about the EC H2O rinseless is the windows stay clean, my Duragloss Rinseless used to film them over. Anything I can do to save time… LOL

Here's a good video Corey made for EC H20 use.

Thanks Glen. I just ordered some, I have a loaner Camaro right now while my transmission on my SS is being fixed, figured I would use the loaner as my lab rat car this weekend, lol! Might get some detailing business from my detailer once I bring it back looking awesome.

I don't have issues with Duragloss and filming on the windows, interesting. Do you have your windows sealed or coated? I sealed mine with CS, they always look crystal clear, inside and out.

So is the ECH20 going to replace the Duragloss as your go to rinseless wash? I'm about to go to rinseless and using the BF CS after polishing. The photos you just posted about the ECH20 look great.

I will add that I have used just about every product but duragloss. Ech2o is in a league above the rest that I have used. Really good product.

Yes.... but nothing is hard and fast, the difference between duragloss and the EC H2O is not night and day and groundbreaking, it's just a bit more glossy.

I have both, I'll probably use either one going forward.

If your getting the EC H20, and want a protection boost, Try Merlin's Magic Elixer.

This solution was invented by a professional detailer friend of mine. Everyone who has used it loves it.

Post 10 in this thread has the formula.

Pretty excited about trying the ECH20, I like trying new things just to see the difference.

Get a 32 Oz bottle of Optimum No Rinse Wash and wax. You can use it for no rinse washes or as a detailing spray. I think it can also be used as clay lube if you decide to clay your car

We're well past ONR in this discussion...... this is next gen up from that......it's good stuff, but not as high tech as ech20......Si02 products are a game changer....

Carpro Reload is what I have been using as my topper/detailer. Ech20 has been my rinseless and wash lately when the car has a light coat of dust on it.

I will back this up as well, a magic blend that has to be tried. You may want to slightly alter the ratios, I mix it on the weak side. You will have to try it out at the recommended dilution first. I substitute GYEON cure in place of reload. Either will work well..also keep a small bottle for touch up in the trunk.

Your going to love it. Don't fear trying different dilution ratios, pretty thick stuff. Be sure to shake it before use, and after diluting as well. Effective in all uses, most economical in rinseless use.
