Instant Hydrophobic Protection for Your Paintwork
We’re excited to announce Gtechniq’s latest innovation in paint protection — C3 Hydro Coat. Designed for speed, ease of use and exceptional performance, Hydro Coat is the fastest and easiest way to give your vehicle instant hydrophobic protection with a slick, glossy finish that keeps your car cleaner for longer.
What is Gtechniq C3 Hydro Coat?
Gtechniq C3 Hydro Coat is an easy-to-apply, spray-on hydrophobic sealant that bonds instantly to your vehicle’s paintwork. Whether you're a professional detailer or a weekend warrior, Hydro Coat delivers professional-grade protection with minimal effort. It's designed to offer a super-slick, high-gloss finish while dramatically enhancing water and dirt repellency — helping make maintenance washes quicker and easier.
Why Choose Hydro Coat?
Compared to its nearest competitor and backed by independent lab testing, Hydro Coat:
- Increases water contact angle by 8% — promoting better water beading and runoff
- Boosts oil repellency by 28% — helping resist oily residues and environmental grime
- Improves surface free energy (SFE) by 80% — meaning contaminants are less likely to stick
- The result? A surface that stays cleaner, glossier, and more protected for longer.
Long-Lasting Protection You Can Count On
After just one application onto a wet vehicle, Hydro Coat delivers up to 6 months of high-performance protection. Its hydrophobic and oleophobic properties help repel water, dirt, oils and traffic film, making regular washes more effective and reducing the need for heavy pre-washes.
Perfect as a stand-alone sealant or a top-up layer over ceramic coatings, C3 Hydro Coat is a versatile addition to any detailing routine.
