    Add "only" hydrophobic property to my paint?

    I am not against that advice . .. I will likely strip the OCW and get an opti-seal basecoat.

    Add "only" hydrophobic property to my paint?

    I am currently running with Optimum Synthetic Spray Wax on my new car. The front end is protected with Suntek Ultra. After reading ad nauseam about ceramic coatings and their reload products, I settled for my old school OSW. My question for the forum is are there good options for adding just...
