    Optimum Gloss-Coat - 2015 Ram 1500

    There doesn't seem to be many reviews of Optimum Gloss-Coat on here yet. Like many others, I was also turned off by the discontinuation of Opti-Coat 2.0. I've done several cars with it and was very pleased with it. I just traded in a 2011 Audi S4 that had Opti-Coat 2.0 on it for about 4...

    Best AG Equivalents to Zaino Products?

    I used to be one of the Zaino fanboys. I still think their products are good, but found out other companies have stuff just as good. I have replaced almost everything I bought from them with other products available from Autogeek. I am finally running out of three products that I love and was...

    Temperature for Opti-Coat?

    Are there any temperature guidelines for Opti-Coat? I am building a new shop and planned on a full detail and OC application on my Audi S4 before winter hits. The temps are already going down though and I won't be moving in for at least a couple of weeks. What's the lowest temp that will...

    CQuartz Comments

    I debated back and forth between trying CQuartz and Opti-Coat for my wife's 2009 Infiniti G37. It was last sealed in October 2010 with Zaino AIO and Z-CS. It was boosted occasionally with Z-8 or OCW after a wash and was still beading a little, but not great. I finally decided to go with...

    PC Backing Plates on GG?

    Will the PC backing plates fit the Griot's Garage polisher? The GG seems to have plenty of power for the 6.5" pads I am using. I need some smaller pads for the tighter spaces though and was thinking of getting one of the smaller backing plates for those sections until I can justify getting...

    Wolfgang Twins - Any Oils/Fillers?

    I am hoping to do at least one of my vehicles with either CQuartz or Opti-Coat (maybe one of each) when it warms up some more. They both have to be applied to a clean surface with no waxes, oils, etc. Since they completely lock in your paint, you are supposed to polish prior to applying. Do...

    New GG DA, Wolfgang Twins, and Hydrotech ???s

    I received a new Griot's Garage DA buffer (with the long cord) for Christmas. I also purchased the Wolfgang Swirl Remover Combo, some new microfiber towels for wiping off polish, and two each of the Hydrotech Cyan, Tangerine, and Red 6.5" pads (the Autogeek Christmas special). My 1988 Chevy...

    OCW Over Zaino

    I have been a Zaino user for years, ever since I was a judge at a show and the one that won best appearance had a shine like nothing I had seen. He used Zaino of course. My daily driver full detail is clay, ZAIO, Z6, and then ZCS. I get 5-6 months of beading out of that combination if I top...

    Clay Bar on Ventureshield Clear Bra?

    My Infiniti G37 has a Ventureshield Clear Bra covering the front end and mirrors. The hot weather and crazy bug outbreaks over the past few weeks have left me with some bug stains on the protected areas that I cannot get out with standard washing or the Pinnacle Bug Scrub that I normally use...
