    Front windshield on 2015 Subaru with EyeSight

    Reading articles on this forum about how cQuartz UK edition makes the color a little deeper would indicate that there could be some light filtering...so if a person were to put cQuartz UK edition on the windshield instead of a product like the FlyBy30 product, I would think there could be a...

    Front windshield on 2015 Subaru with EyeSight

    I talked with a Subaru rep today and got some clarification on the "windshield coating". There explanation is a terrible choice of wording to say, don't put anything on the windshield that can distort the view of the eyesight device. They said the primary problem is when people put the window...

    Front windshield on 2015 Subaru with EyeSight

    hey all...here is the link to a PDF that explains it better than I can: Link to Eyesight - look around page 8. I believe the instruction is about external coatings....not just internal.

    Front windshield on 2015 Subaru with EyeSight

    Hi Symawd, I thought about that also...but after reviewing the instruction manual, the portion of the glass that uses Eyesight is over half the windshield.

    Front windshield on 2015 Subaru with EyeSight

    hey all...got a question about what might be able to be used on a front windshield of a 2015 Subaru. The car comes with the "Eyesight" system. Reading through the owner manual, it says, "Do not use any glass coating agents or similar substances on the windshield. Do so may prevent the system...

    Do automatic car washes strip protection?

    just curious....how do you think opti-coat holds up using a touch-less car wash? On a slightly different product, on one car, I used Prima Hydroseal. The car has been through a touch-less 2 times in the past 4 months. The sealer seems to be holding up really well.

    spotting appearing under Opti-coat?

    thanks for the info. Thankfully, I have a new bottle of the Optimum polish. I will provide feedback after I redo a section. I have not read much about issues with Menzerna. However, if there are issues, I surely want to know. I am using Opti-coat a lot more and if it makes sense to use the...

    spotting appearing under Opti-coat?

    I hate having to re-address this issue but I am very curious about an issue with a clients car. I re-did the entire car (mentioned at the beginning of this post) and sealed it with opti-coat. All of the marks were gone. The car was left overnight and my client got the car back the next day...

    Thanks Chris. As far as I can tell, the surface is bonded...just has these water looking spots showing up.

    spotting appearing under Opti-coat?

    thanks for the response oldmodman. My initial fear is that the prep-all is the culprit. Temp was about 55-60 degrees with very low humidity. I am wondering if the product did not completely evaporate or could have possibly soaked into the clear coat, leaving an initial look of a perfectly...

    spotting appearing under Opti-coat?

    Unfortunately, I don't have a picture to post so I will do my best to explain. I recently detailed a VW Jetta and sealed it with Opti-coat. About a week later, he washed the car and noticed some "spotting". In particular, the trunk has a plastic section where the license plate mounts. It looks...

    Opticoat, Permanon, Element 119

    Thanks Richy! I use the garden sprayer for the permanon. I was told a paint gun uses more product. No hurries for me and the sprayer works fine. For the price, it is some amazing stuff. As for 119, the company makes a pretty strong statement with their video showing 150 washes using Dawn. Of...

    Opticoat, Permanon, Element 119

    Last vehicle received Opti-Coat. Customer wanted an extra coating of something to keep it like new with ease. A week later, car was treated with permanon. Love it! (Permanon was only applied over the Opti-coat once we got the go-ahead from the Permanon folks. The product apparently does not...

    2012 VW Jetta GLI

    tip? the first thing that comes to mind is "take your time". seriously. I spent a lot more time on that VW than I thought I was going to. And it was for good reason...the car turned out great.

    2012 VW Jetta GLI

    Sorry...I don't have many pictures to post but I wanted to share my experience with a new 2012 VW Jetta GLI. This car was my first to use Opti-Coat 2.0. As such, the Meguiars MF system was not going to work. I guess I could have used my WG products but I was not sure it was the right product...
