I once polished my B pillar and grabbed a bottle of what I thought was IPA to do a wipe down...I sprayed it and it smelled like strawberries and that's when I noticed I sprayed a interior cleaner instead. I had both in similar bottles.

Thanks Guz...I already did.

What the man above said. Its a neutral car shampoo...It wont strip a thing...Its kinda too bad you applied PNS on that section because your gonna have to polish it again to remove it if you want to apply a coating. It wouldnt hurt to leave it bare paint for a few days and just wash it, IPA wipe...

Yeah but why not? Given the fact OPT cleaners relly on polimers and not strong degreasers or other harmfull chems I was thinking it just might be safe to use on leather as well. OPT say to use Power clean on leather to clean and Leather protectant to protect. No problems with Leather protect...

Does anyone know if this is safe to use on leather or on one of those part leather part textile type seats?

It does need a repaint but you could temporarily make it better with a glaze or non abrassive paint cleanser. After that wax it. It wont be a 100% fix but it will remove the hazines and bring back paint color.

I have used OPT hyper polish on 3 of our 4 cars at home and its hands down brilliant. Some of you guys mentioned Megs UP...That one does nothing for me and its a nightmare to buff off. But Megs UC on the other hand is great.

I think its some sort of chemical etching or just dry pre-wash spots. Polishing should remove it.

Car pro Ech20 is priced at $25.99 for 32oz. and for a waterless product dilutes from 1:5 ~ 1:15 so it can be very economical. Opti clean is cheaper and priced at $15.99 for 32oz. and it dilutes 1:3 or even a bit higher 1:5 for less streaking but also less cleaning power. So in case we dilute...

Some dilution ratios of this product for anyone interested: Quick Detailer: 1. Shake well and dilute 1:15 ~ 1:25 2. Spray, spread, and wipe off completely Waterless Wash: 1. Shake well and dilute 1:5 ~ 1:15 2. Spray liberally across one entire panel 3. Lightly wipe with CarPro BOA towel...

For fun try applying a carnauba wax on half of the panel (where you get most of the iron deposits...Im thinking the trunk) and compare after a couple of months which side has less iron spots.

Nah just a fan. Either the sealant is still holding or the coating...its kinda hard to tell TBH.

Its not a waste of opti-seal...it would be a waste of the coating if you didnt do it. Ive used opti seal on top of gloss coat a couple of times(I dont have a garage) and the coating is still holding on after a few months.

Depends on what you need it...OPT power clean is the strongest Ive used (and the one I recomend) but its expensive so I also use other cheaper ones.

I variate between ONR Wolfs mean green Surf city garage rinse free wash&wax CG rinse free Angelwax shampoo CG wash&gloss and Sonax shampoo for wheels.

Whats a waterless rinse...how does that work???

Just rinseless wash the car every week and top it with a spray wax every now and then to boost protection and you should be fine.

Nah...the Garry dean stuff isnt on the market yet. Its soon to be.

ONR does leave some polimers behind but not enough to really affect the bonding of any wax or sealant. The polimers are also easily removed with a simple IPA or other panel wipe. The problem with rinseless shampoos is that most of them have some sort of wax content or gloss enhancers. The only...
