A concentrated silicone-based spray sealant with lotus-effect technology designed for professional and enthusiast applications with flexible dilution ratios up to 1:33.

Key Chemistry

pH Level

4.5

Active Mechanism

silicone film formation

Surfactants

1 (cationic)

Expert Analysis

The disclosed components center around silicone quaternium-17, a cationic silicone that bonds to surfaces while providing water repellency and gloss enhancement. The acidic pH of 4.5 likely optimizes the cationic silicone's adhesion to negatively charged paint surfaces, creating the claimed lotus effect beading behavior.

Key Differentiators

  • Extreme dilution flexibility from neat application to 1:33 ratio for various application methods
  • Silicone quaternium-17 formulation designed to work across multiple surface types including paint, rubber, plastic, and convertible fabrics

Potential Concerns

  • Danger signal word indicates significant safety hazards during handling and application
  • Very low transparency with only 9 regulated ingredients disclosed from an unknown total formula
