    Pictures of BlackICE over Opti-Coat on a light colored car...

    So what happens when you put BlackFire BlackICE over Opti-Coat 2.0? Well, as it turns out - Nothing. I am not sure what I was expecting. Maybe a touch more depth? Maybe an ever so slight darkening? So I received the car new in December. The dealer actually did an excellent job primping...

    Ideas to remove Opti-Coat from plastic trim?

    I used Opti-Coat 2.0 on several pieces of black hard plastic trim on my car. The car was new and I prepped properly. Mostly it worked perfectly well, but there are two spots that turned hazy white. Possibly over-application although I don't believe that to be the case. I have tried Meguiars...

    Cost to paint BMW front bumper

    I would really leave that up to the shop. I would not want to assume the risk of causing hairline fractures in a new paint job by replacing the bumper myself. And if for some reason the paint comes out a different shade, you want the shop to be able to fix that on the fly. In theory, it...

    Cost to paint BMW front bumper

    A reputable body shop will likely want to start over. The final quality of the job is largely dependent on the work done prior to/during primer (especially on a bumper where flexing parts are concerned). Also, they may want to make sure the primer is compatible with the paint system they will...

    Same question. Looked at my email and on AGO and I see nothin'! Edit: Finally found it in my email. Stupid "new" Gmail with its fancy/irritating Promotions tab. Thanks for the heads up SYMAWD.

    Check this out!

    I actually had this idea years ago - That there must be a way to make pigment receptive to changes in voltage. Flip a switch, change the voltage, new color. However, there is a big flaw with this type of thinking. Many body panels are no longer metal. Bumpers, spoilers, rocker panels (and...

    Meguiars

    I think like most product lines, there are the good, the OK, and the bad. Knowing what products you are using would help. Meguiar's clay, car wash, compounds, polishes and pads are generally all good to great products. There are certainly better trim protectants, tire dressings, waxes and...
