    Ditto, what did you use to polish it out?

    New Product - Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0

    That being said it's probably not healthy to directly inhale/smell the products we use, despite whether or not they have pleasant scents. I'd call optimum direct about the scratch shield. I wish I had when I first went to apply it-I could've saved some time. I did remove two spots of bird...

    New Product - Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0

    Depending upon your prior LSP, Dawn may not be sufficient. It wasn't for me with Collinite and BFWD (if recent).

    Now we all know that dish wash is bad for your car, how about the reverse?

    David is using opti-coat which is a permanent coating. I just applied the consumer version to my truck. That being said this thread is full of myths. In my experience Dawn is very weak at removing most LSP's and even polishing oils at times. I can tell you it does virtually nothing to...

    new payroll period

    I didn't think that many places paid weekly. I've been paid every 2 weeks at all my jobs. Look on the bright side it saves a lot of payroll costs not to have to send a check out every week.

    New Product - Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0

    Just went outside to hose the truck off after the rain and I've never seen anything as hydrophobic as this stuff. It repels water so fast it's hard to get a big wide sheet going. The only trim I applied it to was the door window trim, mirrors and door handles. It darkens the trim some and...

    New Product - Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0

    Just got home and pulled it out of the garage and into the rain after 17 hour cure time in my heated garage at 65* F. I'd say my application turned out to be pretty good based upon the beading I'm getting in the rain. The panels were totally dead as far as beading goes after my prep. This...

    Optimums Opti-Coat

    I just applied 2.0 the other night. I too was frustrated by the fact it came with no instructions and there is a lot of contradictory information on the internet. I would definitely apply it to a beater car first to get the feel. I was so concerned about over applying it that I probably...

    New Product - Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0

    Ok just applied it to my '09 regular cab Tacoma with painted topper/camper shell. Applying to all painted surfaces only I used just under 5cc of product. Should I be concerned I didn't use enough? I applied an X initially by putting two thin lines on the applicator for 1/2 the hood. After...

    New Product - Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0

    I'm applying Opti-coat to my truck very shortly. M205 followed by Optimum Power Clean @ 3:1 (spray & dwell) and a Dawn wash worked great to prep the surface. How long is recommended before exposing the truck to rain? To a car wash?

    Why zanio

    Zaino is so popular with Corvette owners because 12+ years ago Sal Zaino himself posted heavily and marketed his products directly to Corvette owners on various internet message boards. This spilled over into other GM forums. For many this was the first line of botique products they ever used...
