Optimim say Opti-glass C&P can be used to compliment their glass sealant (Opti-glass) or it can be used as a standalone product. Here is the UK, Opti-glass C&P has just arrived and would cost approximately $65. For a glass sealant this is a lot of money but for a cleaner which lasts about a...

Hopefully a bottle of GPS will arrive on Tuesday. My original plan was to use it with the rotary but my health is not that great so the new plan is to apply it by hand. Therefore does anyone have any experience or tips they can offer for GPS

If there is a technique to using a (Optimum) MF pad on a rotary, I have yet to find it. After less than a minute, all the fibres have flattened and need to be cleaned to fluff them back up again. After experimenting with increasing and decreasing the amount of polish on the pad I simply...

Last week I was reading a response where someone said that IPA would remove old wax and clean up the paint. So, in the interest of trying this out with a quick and dirty experiment I washed a panel with ONR and then sprayed some IPA over a section to clean it. Next I applied paint cleaner with...

It seems to be common practice for manufacturers to say their polish will remove say 1500 grit paper marks. Is there a standard test for such claims?

Just a thought experiment. There are lots of polishes for use before applying the chosen LSP but is there any advantage with polishing with only water. Bear with me on this, here is my (semi) logic. I was recently watching a programme where some firm had been commissioned to replace some...

The Optimum forum seems to have gone missing Cash Advance | Debt Consolidation | Insurance | Free Credit Report at Optimumforums.org is this a recent thing or have they changed their name

One handed polisher? A question arose on another forum whereby someone with one arm asked about what type of polisher could be used. I have no idea as I cannot see how you could control a machine and alter the pressure but I thought the question should be put to a larger audience. So, any...

I recently started using the new Optimum MF polishing pads with Optimum Hyper Polish and it works great but when I tried the Hyper Compound everything changed. Even after washing and constantly fluffing the fibres, the pad was very 'grabby' and had none of the smoothness compared to the Hyper...

This is simply a question of curiosity but could ONR be used (safely) in a steamer and if so, are there any advantages The reason for asking the person cleaning is using a spray on cleaner and follows with a blast of steam before wiping rjturner010480's Channel - YouTube which made me wonder...

Is the gap between Power Gloss and Optimum Hyper Spray polish very high? My trusty PC has died after 7 years service and so I have bought a rotary. I spent a few hours experimenting with the rotary, 3M pads and the Hyper spray but made no impact on the swirls. The car is an Alfa 156 (circa...
