GYEON Q²M Bathe+ is an SiO₂-infused premium car shampoo that refreshes the hydrophobicity of existing coatings during washing – after every wash, water beads off more strongly and the gloss level is intensified.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA car shampoo that refreshes the protective effect of the coating while washing – that's the idea behind \u003cstrong\u003eGYEON Q²M Bathe+\u003c\/strong\u003e. The Plus version of the proven Q²M Bathe contains SiO₂ ceramic particles that incorporate into the coating surface during the washing process and reactivate the lotus effect. The result: after every wash with Bathe+, water beads off again like on a freshly sealed vehicle – without an additional care step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSiO₂ ceramic particles refresh hydrophobicity with every wash.\u003c\/strong\u003e Q²M Bathe+ contains active SiO₂ particles that enhance hydrophobicity when in contact with ceramic coatings and polymer sealants. After every wash, the paint shows a more intense water beading effect – visibly improved lotus effect without extra effort.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtends the durability and effectiveness of existing coatings.\u003c\/strong\u003e Every wash with a normal shampoo degrades coatings minimally. Q²M Bathe+ reverses this effect: It enhances the coating effect with every wash, instead of reducing it.

The paint looks deeper and shinier after washing than with a standard shampoo.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote class=\"praxistipp\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePractical tip from Detailing1:\u003c\/strong\u003e Q²M Bathe+ works best on vehicles with an existing ceramic coating or a polymer sealant. On completely unsealed paint, the SiO₂ effect is less pronounced. For optimal washing results, first pre-treat insects and stubborn dirt with \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2m-bug-and-grime-insektenentferner\"\u003eQ²M Bug\u0026amp;Grime\u003c\/a\u003e, then wash with Bathe+ – and observe the enhanced beading effect directly during rinsing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSiO₂ wash: How Q²M Bathe+ redefines coating care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe integration of SiO₂ ceramic particles into car shampoos is a relatively young development in detailing – and GYEON Q²M Bathe+ shows why it has prevailed. During the washing process, the SiO₂ particles come into direct contact with the paint surface and existing protective layers. The washing process evenly distributes the particles and enhances the hydrophobic properties of the coating surface. After rinsing, the surface shows a significantly stronger beading effect than before washing. This effect accumulates over several washes and keeps coatings fresh much longer than normal shampoos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQ²M Bathe+ for which vehicles and situations?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ²M Bathe+ is particularly effective on vehicles with ceramic coating (e.g. \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2-mohs-evo-paint-coating-keramikversiegelung-lack\"\u003eQ² Mohs EVO\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2-one-evo-paint-coating-keramikversiegelung-lack\"\u003eQ² One EVO\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2-syncro-evo-paint-coating-2-stufige-keramikversiegel\"\u003eQ² Syncro EVO\u003c\/a\u003e) or polymer sealants. On freshly sealed vehicles, Bathe+ significantly extends coating durability. For vehicles without a coating, we recommend the regular \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2m-bathe-autoshampoo\"\u003eQ²M Bathe\u003c\/a\u003e, which is sufficient for unsealed surfaces.

If you want to refresh even more protection after washing, you can additionally apply \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2m-wetcoat-nassversiegelung\"\u003eQ²M WetCoat\u003c\/a\u003e to the wet vehicle – the combination of Bathe+ and WetCoat is unbeatable for quick sealant refreshment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eComparison: Q²M Bathe vs. Bathe+ – When is the upgrade worthwhile?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth shampoos are excellent – the choice depends on the vehicle and care goals. Q²M Bathe is the efficient everyday shampoo for thorough cleaning without extras. Q²M Bathe+ is the recommended shampoo for vehicles with ceramic coating or sealant – the upgrade is worthwhile for anyone who wants to maximize the lifespan of their coating investment and maintain the lotus effect after every wash. Bathe+ is slightly higher in price, but is more efficient due to its dual benefit (cleaning + sealant care).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePurchase recommendation: The best shampoo for coated vehicles\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGYEON Q²M Bathe+ is our first recommendation for any vehicle with a ceramic coating.
