Hydr8 Ceramic Coating

Hydr8 Ceramic Coating T3

DIY Detail Hydr8 Ceramic Coating is an 8-year, TEOS-based ceramic coating designed to deliver intense water behavior, deep gloss, slickness, and long-term exterior protection. Its advanced formula is made for professional detailers and experienced enthusiasts who want durable protection with a more forgiving application window.

Hydr8 uses slower carrier solvents and extended flash time to support application on raw metal substrates while offering improved durability over DIY Detail Metal Ceramic Coating. The TEOS formulation is designed to help resist clogging and fracturing, supporting lasting hydrophobic performance and easier maintenance.

**Note: Hydr8 replaces the DIY Detail Metal Ceramic Coating. Hydr8 has those slower carrier solvents and flash time. Giving superior qualities to the raw metal substrate. Hydr8 is also more durable than the Metal Ceramic Coating.

How to Apply Hydr8 Ceramic Coating:

• Start with a clean and dry surface.
• Wipe down with DIY Detail panel prep or apply C6 APP.
• Wearing gloves, in a well-ventilated area, 8-10 drops to the applicator pad to prime. Then 1-2 drops per panel.
• Working in a circular motion apply the DIY Detail Ceramic Coating to a small area ( a front fender for example).
• With Hydr8 you can apply to the vehicle. Then return and level within 30 minutes of application.
• Observe the surface, as the coating begins to cross-link to the paint, the coating will transition from a liquid to what looks like an oil slick on water.
• When 50% of the surface turns back to clear, start leveling the coating.
• With a short nap towel, lightly wipe the surface. If the towel is dragging or is getting wet, wait 1 min more.
• Level with a DIY Level One Towel and follow behind with a Freebird 400 towel.
• The coating needs 1 hour before exposure to rain.
• 3 days after application, you can wash with DIY Detail Rinse Less Wash.

Tips & Tricks

• Start with 8-10 drops to prime the applicator. Then 2 drops per section.
• Hydr8 needs at least 30 minutes to level. The longer the better as it has filling capabilities
• Hydr8 is not like our previous coatings. Watch the videos before application please.
• We recommend a pearl weave towel to level, then a plusher towel for the final wipe.
