    Optimum Poli Seal finishes well?

    Awesome. Does it add any bling to the paint like a dedicated finishing polish? (Menzerna SF4500, M205, Scholl S40). Also, I am thinking of going over with Opti Seal after Poli Seal. Is that a good durable combo?

    Excellent, sounds like I need to try this or GPS. can't tell the difference honestly.

    Optimum Poli Seal finishes well?

    I don't have any experience with non-diminishing AIOs. I use Scholl Concepts S20 or Sonax Perfect Finish as a one step and they finish fantastic, probably because those are DAT polishes. I am considering Poli Seal as a base for Opti Seal but not sure if Poli Seal will add enough gloss to the...

    Why are WOWA Sealants not popular?

    That's fantastic durability, some of the traditional sealants don't last that long.

    Why are WOWA Sealants not popular?

    So what can you get out of Opti Seal, 2 months? Is the durability low because it's a WOWA? Opti coat is also WOWA but it is arguably the best protection for car paint today.

    Why are WOWA Sealants not popular?

    can we please talk about WOWA sealants instead of Hydro2? I am keen on Opti Seal, UPGP and Zaino CS.

    Why are WOWA Sealants not popular?

    I don't get it why products like Opti Seal, UPGP, Black Fire Crystal Seal and Zaino CS are not more popular amongst detailers. They are easy to use and we can argue that they cause less damage to the paint considering you remove once step out of the process (Buffing). They look good and some...

    Which rotary pads are you using?

    I was getting along fine with most CG a Hex Logic pads and my SMAT polishes from Optimum till I made the switch to DAT polishes by Scholl Concepts, Sonax and Menzerna. A few professional detailers I know recommended against Hex saying they retain product and can throw it back during finishing...

    Recommend me a good paint cleaner

    I need a good paint cleaner that I can use with my rotary every 3 months to refresh the paint and reapply the wax/sealant. The paint has been compounded and polished so the paint cleaner doesn't need to have any abrasives or it could be lightly abrasive to correct the minor wash marring and...

    Why not use Opti seal instead of reload?

    Meguiars D151

    Does it have any fillers in it? I can't see the point in an AIO unless it has fillers to mask imperfections. AG super resin polish is excellent that way. So is Scholl Concepts A15.

    Improving IPA solution for LSP prep

    Gtechniq panel wipe removes everything and I don't even trust Eraser when applying a coating. Another hood one is Sonax Paint Prepare, excellent panel wipe and very economical.

    Dry Foam Pads

    I spin them on the rotary and it shortens the drying time considerably.

    Menz SF4000 or Sonax Perfect Finish

    Both have long work time, high gloss finish. Menzerna is rather oily, does not cake up or saturate the pad easily. SPF is a micro polish and will saturate the pad easily. You will need to clean your pad frequently or change them after each panel. I would hazard a guess that the cut is almost...

    Porsche Cayman Opti-Seal'd + Front bumper wetsand

    Very nice, car looks great. Also, good to know that SPF was able to correct. It's my favorite finishing polish but I haven't been able to correct anything with it.

    How to pair polishes & pads?

    Thanks. I just finished my Optimum Hyper Compound and compared to M105 I just loved it. Long work time, no dust, stays clear so you can gauge the correction being achieved and easy to wipe off. Then I decided to try their polish and somebody told me their non spray able polishes work better than...

    How to pair polishes & pads?

    Are polishing pads for polishes and compounding pads for compounds or is there any overlap? I have Optimum Polish II and all three LC HT pads. Can I use the same polish with all three pads - Cyan for deeper corrections, Tangerine for polishing and crimson to finish? I don't want to use a more...
