A surface treating formulation with an organic solvent and a reduced amount of silicone fluid. In examples, the organic solvent may be a gas-to-liquid solvent and may include a synthetic paraffinic hydrocarbon. The silicone fluid may include at least a silicone having a viscosity of at least 1000 cSt. Examples of the formulation may include a rheology modifier, one or more surfactant, a pH adjusting agent, a preservative, and an inorganic solvent, such as water. The formulation may optionally include additional additives. In examples, a surface may be treated by spraying or wiping thereon the surface treating formulation.
A system (200) for recharging a refrigeration system (100) of a vehicle is provided. The system (200) includes a refrigerant delivery device (202) configured to removably couple to a recharge port (120, 122) of the refrigeration system (100). The refrigerant delivery device (202) comprises a controller (216), a refrigerant container (206), and at least one sensor (204). The controller (216) is configured to communicatively couple with User Equipment (UE) (218) of a user over a communication channel. The refrigerant container (206) stores a refrigerant. The at least one sensor is configured to measure one or more parameters of the refrigeration system. The controller (216) is configured to transmit, via the communication channel, the one or more parameters of the refrigeration system (100) to the UE (218), receive, via the communication channel, one or more commands from the UE (218) to perform a recharge process for the refrigeration system (100), and selectively deliver the refrigerant to the refrigeration system (100) in response to the one or more commands.
Described herein are compositions and methods for use in automotive care. In particular, the present disclosure is directed to water-based compositions comprising a silicone emulsion that are particularly beneficial as a gloss booster, enhancer, and/or sealant.
A foam sprayer (110) includes a body defining a channel, a nozzle (124), and an adapter (128) configured to releasably attach to a first fluid source (102) that provides a first fluid at a first pressure. The foam sprayer (110) includes a connector attached to the body (122) and configured to releasably connect the body (122) to the adapter (128) or to a second fluid source (106) that provides a second fluid at a second pressure that is substantially greater than the first pressure. The foam sprayer also includes a mode selection device (140) configured to switch the foam sprayer between a low-pressure mode and a high-pressure mode.
