First off shout out to everyone who gave me advice on the application process. Big shout to Radarryan, we shared some emails that calmed my nerves about trying OC. and like everyone says, its really not that diffecult!

So I used OC 2.0 for the first time today figured I would post, see what you guys think!









For the most part this is how I applied in tight areas


And this is as much as I had used, about 2.5 cc for 4 wheels(face and barrel) and honestly I couldnt see if the wheels got enough or not becuase of the lighting and color. the Calipers i could actually see the application/flashing.



Is there anything I should do now. Wait untill tomorrow (24hours) then test them with the hose?

Let me know what you guys think!
 
I just OC'd four wheels yesterday. Just the front side. i painted the barrels black. Mine are not nearly so open as yours. Silver fronts. I couldn't see any OC or flashing. But later a day later, the surface feels different, not slippery, but smooth. More gloss.
 
Nice! I like your adaptive OC applicator :props:

Cool how much did you end up using?

lol when in doubt pull a rubber band out!
 
I used a soft cloth ~2"x4" folded in half. Maybe 6 drops to prime. Each additional wheel 4 drops. i only did the front side and sides of the 5 spokes. My first with OC. Hope i have enough on the wheels.
 
Great job Eric! It was my pleasure to help and I'm glad that I could. If there is anything else that you think I could be of assistance with, please don't hesitate to ask me. It's what we're on here for.

Thanks for posting and I'm glad you had great results! Happy detailing! :dblthumb2:
