I don't have a great deal of time to reply here. Opti-Seal can be used over a wax through migration. I am not a chemist or a scientist nor did I formulate Opti-Seal BUT I have no reason to doubt Dr. G. either. I am told the solvents within Opti-Seal are not of the type that will degrade wax...

Not sure exactly. I do know that the sprayers will be changed oout so as far as I know that's the only thing holding shipment. Anthony

Thanks Mike. I appreciate your use of the products during that time because it gave Dr. G a visual of what we were trying to explain to him. It allowed him to tweak the products to what he saw visually and what we were telling him and after a few more tweaks I believe we got what we were looking...

Several years ago I had the pleasure of introducing many in the detailing world, both Pro and non-pro, to Optimum products, mainly the Optimum Spray Wax. It was not taken with great seriousness at first but after people tried it many of them came to love the ease of use, the great looks, UV...

Mike, excellent info as always. I believe the main key here is "preservation" and it should start as early as possible if one wishes to keep their car looking and feeling new. So keep your carpets vacuumed as this decreases the damage from loose grit. Keep your leather clean, watch what you...

Good day sir and thank you :props: Anthony

You may want to research more on leathers as at least 90% of cars today have coated leathers. Very few leathers are of the aniline finish. You are correct though on leather conditioners and how they may just sit on top of the leathers clear coat. To make sure drop a small amount of water on...

As far as I know it's a water based product. Said to be a water based silicone emulsion. As far as solvents go, there are good and bad solvents. As a general rule white dressings are in the majority of safe silicone's while blue are of the bad silicone's. I personally do not use AA as I hate...

Hey dude, We detail a lot of Porsche engines.....matter fact we are doing one tomorrow....because of the engine location it needs a cleaning after a polish and should be wiped out every time it gets washed to prevent water spotting. Let us know when you can make it out. Anthony

:props: Thank You

Actually, Armor All protectant is a fine product nowadays.

Some weeks ago we had a Porsche Cayman come into our shop and we had done a thorough engine detailing, painted parts plus added a clear glass cover and also some LED lights to show off the engine work. Well we just completed a similar job on a Ferrari 430 minus the engine painting. It did...

Here in Texas WD-40 is the favorite choice for men as an aftershave......and in all truth many use it to repel bugs while out in the field. Be cautious when using WD-40 on re-paints. It can possibly soften paint as I found out the hard way one time. Generally it is safe, even on skin to repel...

You can stop by and say hello at our shop if you like. I wont be in Saturday though. Anthony

There are some new Optimum goodies we have been testing/improving upon, I can't say exactly what other than you guys and gals will first be suspicious and in shock and then once again see detailing in a whole different light. In regards to Opti-Seal over wax or vice versa......you can do it...

Hello, I was recently contacted by someone, I believe from this thread, but I have somehow deleted their Email. They had wanted some information on training and I wish to reply but again have lost their info so if it was someone from this thread please re-send your info to me. Thank you...

They are removed with the same tool that introduced them into the paint....a buffer. It's not the machine that caused them but rather the operator not finishing out his or her work. If they are light then an orbital with the proper pads and product should be able to remove them. Now if these...

No offense but you just started using a rotary and are still working on basic operational skills and you also want a "swirl free finish"? How about baby steps first? Concentrate on proper operation first then worry about the finish results. I have been running a rotary for 20 years...

I was kinda giggled at when I mentioned some time ago that this type of paint needs to be cold buffed. It's much like paraffin wax in that it can't be sliced or cut well when warm or hot but needs to be cold. Yet how can a detailer perform paint correction without heat? Well it's obvious...

We do offer training, which is hands on. Kevin Ferrel with Klean Car also offers a great training program. He is in the New Jersey area. Anthony
