With the cancellation of SEMA 2020, GYEON lost its usual new product release stage. But not to worry, in true GYEON fashion a full digital GYEON SHOW was produced and packed full of product releases, how-to segments, and global GYEON news.
One of those products that I am exceptionally excited about is Q²M Restart Wash. It combines the key properties of multiple GYEON Wash Soaps and combines them into one bottle.
Q²M Restart Wash is designed for coated vehicles. It combines the lubricity of Q²M Bathe, the cleaning power of Q²M Bathe Essence, and the iron removing ability of Q²M Iron for the perfect weekly/biweekly wash maintenance soap for your ceramic coating.
Ceramic Coated finishes will build up contaminant over time which will diminish the water beading effects of the coating. Loss of beading does not mean that the coating is gone. It is still in play and performing its UV and chemical resistance duties. But a surface that is actively beading water shows us that it is capable of actively rejecting dirt and contaminant while making wash maintenance easy, and that is what we want. Using Q²M Restart Wash will not add or boost hydrophobicity like Q²M Bathe+. It will help decontaminate and restore the initial properties of the coating.
Use Q²M Restart Wash as you would your regular weekly or bi-weekly wash soap. Start by adding 15-20 ml to your wash bucket using the included pump. 10 pumps is just about right.
Add water as normal. Q²M Restart Wash has great foaming action. It can also be used in a foam gun if desired.
Wash the car with a high quality Q²M Smoothie Wash Mitt and rinse. That’s it! We’ve now safely washed and decontaminated our coated finish to give it the longest life span and most performance possible.
I like the idea of this as a decon soap. Does this have any of the typical iron remover smell?
Yes, you can smell the iron removing properties but it’s not as harsh. I found while using it in my foam canon, that it had a hint of a lemon scent.
Can you tell that this actually removes iron or is this just marketing?
how often should it be used? weekly or better once a month or two? cheers
been using this since it came out. i use it about every third or 4th wash. brings back the clarity and enhances the metalflake on my lexus es 350. that pump they give u provides 2ml per pump…very precise. fyi
