    I too have a Honda but I got a black one. I chose to opti-coat it as it is too my dd. I so far like it and it made it through a Michigan winter.

    Opti-coated 2.0 on '12 Civic Si

    The only thing I can really say is don't be scared of it and also do it in lots of good NATURAL light. I did it right there where it is parked in the pictures and had no issues with it. Like I said in the first post, I only used 3.5 cc, so don't go overboard with it. I think a lot of people...

    Opti-coating 2.0 on new civic

    I love it so far. I don't have many miles on it yet, nor have I got on it as it is still getting broke in. The only thing people don't like is its not the 2.0 or they say the interior is cheap. Wanna see cheap look at the cruize interior.

    Opti-coating 2.0 on new civic

    Well, I was going to grab some pics but my SLR battery is dead. I'll snag some tomorrow morning then :) And yup, I just looked to make sure product was going on, then I continued to wipe it on until it was gone. I only did the paint. I used wolfgang trim sealant for the trim, and PB wheel...

    I can grab some pics in a few, and yup only 3.5 cc's. I didn't wanna put on to much, just enough to coat and cover the car.

    New black car paint

    Wish I could swerve Mike but those damn things seem to find my cars no matter what! The clear bra guy said that I have to make sure the car is clean for him to put the bra on, but it is getting put on at a well know car detailing place not far from me. So according to some of the guys here...

    New black car paint

    Its a 2012 so when the car was made and I guess painted too. I am assuming since it came from Canada to OH by train, then back to MI, it needed to be clayed, but I guess I am unsure at the moment. So I should use the PB BH with the tangerine pad, then finish with the red? pad for the...

    New black car paint

    Hey guys, I just took delivery of my new black Honda. It was made 30 days ago tomorrow so I want to get some protection on it. I was going to clay it, then polish it with Poorboys black hole polish, then add some Wolfgang paint sealant on top. My question is what pad do I use for applying...

    2002 Honda CR-V

    Sorry guys, its an HT Cyan pad. I don't have any full shots but I can get some when it's more sunny out as I know the owners of the car pretty well.... (my parents :xyxthumbs:) Also it took about six hours non stop (except for some mountain dew) to complete the paint. Most of the trim I had my...

    2002 Honda CR-V

    Hey guys/gals! Over the weekend, I was gifted a CR-V for the day to try to correct the paint. The car had 130k on it and had never been done. Color is Nighthawk Black. As most of you know, Honda has a soft clear coat and this car was swirled to death! Horrible paint and lack of maintenance...

    Porter cable buffer swirls

    Been a long time Mark! Hope all is going well for you and your family! Kinda funny, my SVT I am driving at the moment probably has some parts on it from your old car (since you sold it to a buddy of mine). The Honda I am speaking of is actually my moms car. I have read that the Nighthawk...
