I have tried over 2 million different Window and windscreen cleaning solutions and I don't exaggerate. My current solution is Adams Brilliant Glaze. There is a youtube video on this, and it is the only way I have found to avoid smudges and haziness. Once this is polished off, any cleaner...

Yes, definitely slicker than Opti Coat and Opti Gloss Coat, it hasn't attracted much dust, so probably is anti-static.

I had another look and the 50ml bottle is probably about 1/4 gone - so 12.5ml. I did a complete coverage of the paint - no Glass or anything. There is not much paint work to be honest. I could see it go on quite well and it all hazed over nicely, so am reasonably confident I got complete...

I applied Gliss 3 days ago to my little Black Golf. It had Opti Gloss Coat applied about a year ago but the car lives outside 24/7 and is not that well looked after. I did a wash with strong detergent and then used Paint Prep (same as eraser) . I then had to use some paint cleaner for some of...

I bought some Gliss and will put on my 4 cars this weekend ( if it spreads that far). I also bought some WG 3.0 sealant so not sure which product on what car. All cars bit different; -5 year old Opticoat 2.0 topped with FK1000p . -1 year old Opti Gloss Coat over Opticoat 2.0 -1 year Opti Gloss...

Oh and FK425 (the pink stuff) as a drying aid after each wash.

I think i have a problem. I topped my Opticoat 2.0 with Optigloss. I then use Adams brilliant glaze and then FK1000p over the top of all of this. I am sure it is a waste, but i cant control myself. It is on an Obsidian Black Mercedes and always looks good. Digger

Fk1000p

I like most black holes.

Definitely 10ml is adequate for even a large car. From my use as just one date point, 5ml for a small car, 7ml for mid size and 9 for a large. It spreads really thin, so if you put too much on you get high spots that need to be wiped off anyway.

I use in on tires as well, I dont like high gloss and I think 303 makes the tires look more like a new tire than a shined up glossy one. It lasts between car washes so is good enough for me.

Thanks Kev, Pretty much what my plan is for the last 10ml of Opticoat 2.0 I have saved up for my Porsche Macan when it arrives later in the year. I can't afford to complete say 3/4 of the car and then run out as 2.0 is getting very hard to find. So I am going to measure out 1ml at a time, put...

More good news, the high spots near the door handles were just hand smudges from touching the paint when opening the door. So i wiped them off and all good

Hi again, follow up is that today i put 7.5ml of Opti gloss coat in a little spray bottle, and this time used an applicator wrapped in a rubber glove wirh a Blue Chux on the outside. So much easier !!!! Loaded up applicator with one spray and then one spray per small panel, and 2 or 3 for the...

For professionals and regular users i agree that counting drops is a waste. But for very rank amateurs like me, it would give a good guideline to thickness applied as you go along.. Gloss coat is $100 for 10ml in Australia so dont want to waste any by slopping it on. Anyway, i am going to...

Also, i bought 10 x 1ml measuring vials on ebay (for $1.59) so i will do a drop count when they arrive.

Further to my Gloss Coating. Got home tonight after coating yesterday and the Golf was lookng pretty shiny so i poured a bucket of water on the roof and hood and the water just slid off with the remaining little bit of water beading beautifully.. Looks amazingly like the 2.5ml has done...

AGO -It does appear that the couple of drops is a bit conservative. I did the math like you and am now fairly confused. That said, I coated a W211 Mercedes with OptiCoat 2.0 when it first came out and the coating still works perfectly. There was plenty of speculation at the time that no...

Yes, i have read plenty that talk abour 20 drops per ml, but then read one from an Optimum employee that stated 60 drops per ml. Quite a difference im sure you will agree

Hi, Just put a coat of Optimum Gloss Coat on my VW Golf and I put it on way too thin. I followed the instructions on the container of a few drops per panel. I only used 2.5ml which probably nearly got all absorbed by the applicator anyway. So the new plan is to apply drops per panel. I have...
