Hey, Anybody have any experience with both versions? I'm just referring to the new version as ReLoad 2 and the old version as ReLoad 1. Has anybody noticed that the new ReLoad has a much different application experience? Thanks, Emile
Former Reload was more water diluted,improved Reload is more concentrated and has more silica in it (5%), better hydrophobic effect, and much better self cleaning. see this video : YouTube - New carpro ReLoad quick glass coating
lol that may or may not be true because it looks like its a more concentrated solution as opposed to the old one being more diluted. Japanese manufacturing is expensive lol.
I wasn't gonna watch the video till I read that comment and lemme tell you, I couldn't stop laughing.
The bottles are exactly the same but I think the new formula has a sticker that says New Formula but let me double check my bottle just to confirm. I would say that ReLoad v1 is almost odorless but the v2 has a super strong smell. I would also say that v1 acts more like a spray wax whereas v2 acts more like a spray-on sealant (think Acrylic Jett Trigger). I will have to play around with it some more to confirm though. And I'd like to try it on wet paintwork. So far I only applied two coats last week-end to my Subaru after the wash and dry process. I know the statement makes no sense but basically I applied it twice to my Suby because first time I thought that maybe I wasn't using the right towel because application is totally different from v1.
i just got some today. the bottle says made in Korea and does not have any "new formula" sticker. BTW, i ordered the day before e-shine recieved their "car pro" shipment.
the label sticker is different, with improved design . correct ,and new reload is more powerful. its Japs, not necessary always more expensive the application is the same, only one thing , need to use short loops MF , or as i recommend suede MF , very good for wiping the Reload. new reload has additional sticker on it "improved version" these are two brands of products, not the company name!, all new products are CarPro products, its written well on the new labels. here are the former reload which is good as well ! : and the new version:
Carpo is the mother company of both. Cquartz is the dedicated long term sealant, whereas Reload is the spray.
Mother company, no. Aquartz was the original company. Cquartz is the new company. Aquartz's products are like the old versions of what Avi sells. Aquartz website is really negative too. Cquartz is who is supplying Eshine and Phil. You are guaranteed great customer service from Cquartz. You are taking chances with your money buying from Aquartz.
I typed Aquartz rather than Carpro...A HUGE BOO BOO. I edited my post above. I'm going to pm Akustik to be sure he knows. I was actually the one who started the thread concerning clearing the different information up, and I go and type the wrong crap. I'll make sure to PM him, and my apologies to whomever read that before I had the opportunity to edit it. THANKS RICHY FOR STEPPING IN ! I pm'd akustik with the correct info .... SORRY GUYS.
No problem. I would rather people deal with Avi and his line as I know he stands behind his products and participates on the forums. Not to mention that Phil and Chris now carry his line.
