    Driving after opti coat?

    I polished my wife's car about 2 months ago and put a coat of sealant and collinite on it. Now she wants opticoat on it after seeing my car. Would I need to polish it again or could I just remove the sealant and wax and just wash it really well?

    I think I screwed up the opti-coat...

    From what I have read online, if it felt grabby there wasn't enough Opti coat on the pad. People on different forums have used between 6-10 cc's of opti coat. Wait 2 hours until it totally dries and spray it with water. The spots that aren't beading just hit with a little more opti coat.

    Opti coat prep

    I purchased opti coat 2.0 along with eraser, groits paint prep, and ironx. Is that all I should need? What steps should I take with these products? I also have woflegang swirl remover and finishing glaze.

    Spots on paint after wash and wax

    So my friend washed, clayed, and polished his car. The other day I washed it and waxed it with collinite for him. Now there are water markish streaks on the paint. I tried to wipe them off but they won't come off. Will I have to re-polish the car?

    I hate the winter...

    For those of you saying you wish you were in Florida....stop. Florida is awful. I know we have nice winters and Disney world, but that's it. The summers here are horrible. I mean going to the car at 6am and sweat covering you from walking 5 ft is the worst. Every afternoon in the summer it rains...

    Engine Bay Detailing

    Yeah I have detailed my engine bay several times and don't cover up a single thing. When I detail friends or family's cars I usually cover up some parts like I mentioned above. That is usually if it is an older car.
