    Still can't remove swirls

    Lower from speed 6 to say 3. A finishing glaze is not doing any correction BUT your white pad might be creating micro scratches. Any time you do a paint correction step with an orange pad then jump down to a finishing glaze......you're skipping a step. Thus leaving behind some micro marring so...

    OptiCoat 2.0....any way to tell if it bonded?

    Those troubling "high spots" of Opti-Coat will be more noticeable in the shade and not so in the sun. If you are applying OC and you notice a spot or two try using a light spray of Opti-Seal on the area, buff lightly with a soft towel. If one wishes to be technical, Opti-Coat does sheet and...

    Buyer Beware: Xenonmods.com

    Recently I ordered some brake caliper logos from xenonmods.com......oh about a month ago now and have received....NOTHING! Not even a reply to several emails, no help from paypal either. So this place is a rip off and avoid them at all costs. This is FRAUD and should be freakin illegal but...

    2011 Cayenne, paint correction & Opti-Guard protection

    Very nice work:xyxthumbs: Porsche Cayenne and the new Panamera's have rock hard clears on them. The 911's, Boxster's and Cayman's all have paint on the softer side. Most of the 911's, Boxsters and Caymans can be corrected in 2 steps. The Cayenne's and Panamera's usually take 3, up to 5 steps...

    Review and Extreme Testing: Opti-Coat 2.0 and CQuartz

    I originally started spraying both Opti-Seal and Opti-Coat some time ago, along with tire and interior dressings, to see how they performed and set up. If you're familiar with airbrushes then you can use them (double action preferred) to apply Opti-Seal on the surface of a car rather quickly...

    Got the new website up!! Check it out and leave feedback please!!

    Nothing I state is against you personally, but the site has a "look what I made for free!" appearance and feel to it. The pictures are all wrong, as noted remove the picture of the truck blowing smoke, not good. Also the statement about applying a wheel wax that repels brake dust....there's...

    New Product - Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0

    Yep. We have two totally different animals here. Wax is an oil that sits on top of your paint. It's designed as a "feel" and "looks" and then "durable" type product. If a wax is super durable it takes a hit in the looks, feel category and vice versa. Opti-Coat (Guard) is closer to urethane...

    New Product - Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0

    The initial "grab" is what you WANT it to feel like. This is an indicator telling you that the coating is setting up and starting to bond. If you have a nice glassy feel after you apply it then you did something wrong, like buffed it down too soon. It will feel smoother after a 24 hour period...

    Optimum Compound II, anyone use it?

    The new Hyper's work very well. We have been testing and tweaking the Hyper Polish II for a god while now and it's shaping up to be a perfect companion to Hyper Compound, both spray and liquid. The Hyper Polish II (the beta version I have now) cuts Hyoer-Compounds swirls and leaves a ready to...
