Protocol

How we run it in the bay.

SiC protection in a spray. Katch 22 is a silicon carbide (SiC) infused spray sealant in a 16 oz bottle. Spray, spread, buff. It is our everyday spray sealant for paint, on its own or over an existing ceramic coating.

  • SiC-infused. Built on silicon carbide chemistry rather than a standard SiO₂ base.
  • Gloss and beading you can see. A slick finish, with water that beads and sheets off the paint.
  • A sealant, not a coating. Goes on bare, corrected paint or over an existing ceramic coating. No leveling, no cure window.

Why we run it in our Texas studio

Katch 22 is the spray we reach for most in the bay. It adds gloss, a slick feel and water beading in a few minutes per panel, and the next wash comes off easier.

The Shop Protocol

  1. Start clean and dry. Wash with AQUA-SUDS and dry fully with the SLURPY 20×30. Work in the shade on panels cool to the touch.
  2. Spray and spread. Mist one panel, or the Microsuede Applicator, and spread it thin and even.
  3. Buff. Buff off with a clean face of The Swiss 16×16 10-Pack, then move to the next panel, top to bottom.

We do not put a time figure on protection. Results depend on surface prep, climate, driving and wash habits. Watch how water behaves on the surface and reapply when the beading drops off.

Straight answers

Questions detailers ask.

Still stuck? Email info@aqualuxdetail.store. A detailer answers.

Is Katch 22 a ceramic coating?

No. Katch 22 is an SiC-infused spray sealant. You mist a panel, spread it and buff it clear. There is no multi-hour install, no leveling and no cure window.

How often should I reapply Katch 22?

We do not put a time figure on it, because prep, climate, driving and wash habits all change the result. Wash with a pH-neutral soap and reapply when water stops beading the way it did after application.

Katch 22 or VITRIFY MAX?

Katch 22 is our everyday SiC spray sealant for paint. VITRIFY MAX is the only spray coating we make: an SiC-advanced ceramic spray coating for paint, glass, plastic trim and wheels in one step.

Can Katch 22 go over an existing ceramic coating?

Yes. Katch 22 is a spray sealant. Use it on its own or over an existing ceramic coating.

What towel do I buff Katch 22 with?

The Swiss 16×16 10-pack, 350 GSM. Do not buff with your drying towel.

    The SiC technology is real

    Posted by Andrew H. on 4th Feb 2026

    I've used a lot of spray sealants that claim ceramic technology but this is the first one where I can actually feel the difference. The surface hardness after Katch 22 is noticeably different from SiO2-only products. Water doesn't just bead — it sheets off in a way that tells you there's real protection there.

    Repeat buyer

    Posted by Marco V. on 11th Jan 2026

    On my fourth bottle now. I apply it to my truck every 6-8 weeks and the results are consistently excellent. No product has earned this kind of loyalty from me before. The quality is there every single time.

    Holds up in the rain

    Posted by Oscar M. on 11th Dec 2025

    I live in Seattle. It rains constantly. Katch 22 has held up through weeks of continuous rain without losing its hydrophobic properties. Most spray sealants wash away after a few rain storms — this one doesn't. That's the SiC difference.

    Better than Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions

    Posted by Eddie T. on 3rd Dec 2025

    I switched from Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray to Katch 22 and the difference is night and day. Better durability, better slickness, better water behavior. You get what you pay for and Katch 22 delivers.

    My car has never looked this good

    Posted by Hannah L. on 28th Nov 2025

    I'm not a car person — I just want my car to look nice. A friend recommended Katch 22 and I applied it myself in about 30 minutes. My car looks like it just came from a professional detail. The gloss and smoothness are incredible.

    Easy to apply, hard to beat

    Posted by Rebecca S. on 27th Nov 2025

    Spray on, spread, buff off. Takes about 20 minutes for my whole car. The results rival spray coatings that cost twice as much. I'm a weekend warrior detailer and this makes me look like I know what I'm doing.

    Professional detailer approved

    Posted by Dave R. on 5th Nov 2025

    I've been detailing for 12 years and I'm picky about products. Katch 22 earned a permanent spot in my arsenal. The SiC-infused formula provides a level of protection that other spray sealants can't match. My clients notice the difference.

    Great on white paint

    Posted by Laura P. on 14th Oct 2025

    White paint shows every water spot and imperfection. Katch 22 keeps my white BMW spotless. Water rolls right off and doesn't leave marks. The protection is real and visible. Best spray sealant I've used on light-colored paint.

    Lasts way longer than expected

    Posted by Michelle D. on 17th Sep 2025

    Applied Katch 22 to my SUV expecting maybe 3-4 weeks of protection like most spray sealants. I'm at 8 weeks and still getting strong beading. The Silicon Carbide formula clearly provides more durability than typical sprays. Very impressed.
