so i have a bottle of fk425 and the dosing chart says nothing about it. so me being a polycharger fanatic, i figured why not mix this thing up. so i did. didn't know how it would react ie: streaking, hard to remove, etc.

verdict is: it worked out great. if you think 425 is slick right out of the bottle, try using the ch2 poly. it's 3 times as slick, even w/out a waxed/sealed surface.

on topof that, i spread some out over a panel and just let it dry to see if there was any streaking. also no streaking.

so in a nutshell, ch2 works excellent, all you polycharger guys, try it out. you'll love it.
 
Im surprised it worked out for you since you are supposed to use the h20 varient with water based lsp's, spray waxes, and quick detailers.

Did you do a side by side comparison or just polycharged the entire thing with ch2?

technically from what i have researched, 425 is water based. i have charged alot of qd'ers and they all perform but the 425 blew them all away.

some spray waxes won't take the h20 as do the same with the qd'ers etc. it's all experimentation.

side by side was pretty much the same. but as for slickness, the charged side was alotslicker by a long shot. and to be able to leave a product on the car and watch it dry with no streaking is amazing to me. btw, this was on a black panel too.
 
you mad scientist you .... boosted Fk425, it should be a product in its own right. Nice work !

thank you sir. once i finished mixing it up,

i looked to the sky holding it high up in the air and in a scientist kind of voice said: it's alive, it's alive muahahahaha". j/k
 
I will have to put it in some. The only thing I need to order some more 425 :xyxthumbs:

So I am confused. What exactly did you do and what did it achieve?

umm, what is there to really be confused about.

it acheived everything boosting a product is supposed to do.

i also boosted a product that is not on the dosing charts and from what i know, a product nobody has tried boosting.

next i will be boosting onr in qd strength just for fun. i'm on a boosting roll.

not only did it make 425 3x slicker but what amazed me is that i wiped it on a black panel and purposely let it dry and to my avail, no streaks. that is very comforting to me. i hate streaks.

boosting a qd product gives it longevity and makes it quite durable and adding protection.

search polycharger and it will explain what it's purpose is.
 
I may be confused here. You are saying that you are adding the solvent based PolyCharger to water based products on purpose, is that correct? I can't figure how you are mixing water and solvent and NOT getting streaks.

I said the same exact thing in my post and I'm still confused.

Polycharger has two different product's that are not supposed to be used interchangeably. Thats why they have one for water-based products and another for solvent based products. Also its experimental in that the water-based polycharger(H2O) will not always work well all water-based products but that doesn't mean you should use CH2 in its place.

But if the OP saids he finds noticeable results, who am I to say it doesn't work.

you are correct in the fact stated about some waterbased products not working with ch2 and vice versa. thus the reason i went ahead and tried my own method seeings i have messed around with ALOT of products via polycharger.

it's all in experimenting with your products. i'm sure alot of you have been dosing your products filling the whole dropper, even though it won't fill the whole dropper the first time. the dosing charts online now state that 1 dose is half the dropper. that was re-written via me/my conversations with autopia.

nonetheless, yes i did boost the 425 with h20, and yes i have excellent results. no streaking(in the sun or shade), and slickness is atleast 3x the normal. best part of the test was the mist and swipe. left the product on the panel and wham, dried streak free.

i have even boosted megs uqw with ch2 and had awesome results. then i went and boosted it with ch2 and had awesome results too. uqw is not on the dosing chart either. experimentation can open up new doors to products you wouldn't expect it from. this is why i am sharing my results with the community, so others can see what i'm trying out.

in this application, i am using ch2(water based) with fk425(waterbased from my research). think that was already stated.

hope the confusion is over for the few of you.


fk425 + h20 poly x residential chemist(yours truly) = phenomenal qd'er on steroids.

See this is what is confusing everybody.

You said you boosted with H2O(water-based) and then you go and say you boosted with CH2(solvent-based)

"i have even boosted megs uqw with ch2 and had awesome results. then i went and boosted it with ch2 and had awesome results too."

What is the "it" you are talking about here? UQW or FK425. Are you doing a double dose of CH2(solvent based) on the same product?




Here are some links to clear things up for you as I think you are confusing the products.

H2O is water-based meant to be used with water based products.
Polycharger H2O Wax Booster

CH2 is solvent-based meant to be used with solvent based products.
Polycharger® CH2 Car Wax Booster
 
i boost m16 , works great , i melt the wax , mix and now is paste , all i have to do is shake the bottle before use.
 
everyone. i'm sorry, i meant the h20 poly. why i kept saying ch2 is beyond me. i feel terrible for confusing everyone.

so to clear things up, i used the h20 poly with the 425 and results were beyond expected.

again, sorry for the confusion.

i have both ch2 and h20. just was typing the wrong product.

lasthope, "it" was referring to uqw as i have dosed 1 bottle with h20 and 1 bottle with ch2 and had awesome results in that category.
 
How long does the dose work? Seems like maker says to use it up in 48 hrs? Why do products made with PC last more than 48 hours? TIA.

likely a much lower concentrate, remember it was designed in conjunction with Ultima first.
