New GT500 in for a 1-step polish, Opti-Coat Pro, and Opti-Glass Pro protection. No real before pics on this one and the paint was already in good shape.

Process:

Wash - Megs Hyper Wash, 2BM, Lambs wool mit
Tires - OPC and Tuf-Shine brush, Hyper Dressing 3:1
Wheels - Sonax FE with various brushes and wash mit, Wheels removed and both faces and barrels were coated with Opti-Coat Pro
Surface prep - Speedy prep towel, Glide for lube
Decon - IronX and Tarminator
Paint correction - Sonax PF on the Rupes 21 and G110 with yellow Rupes pads.
Coating Prep - Rewashed, rinse with DI water, blow dried with Master Blaster, Eraser and IPA wipe down
Glass - Clayed, polished with Hyper Polish, IPA wipe down coated with Opti-Glass Pro
Coating - Applied with CarPro micro suede and foam block applicator

Taped up


Finished pics

I think I had about 16hrs into this one. Lots of added time working around and in between the matte stripes. ;)

That car was only a few months old so nothing special was done to the stripes other than washing them, wiping down with Eraser, and coating them with Opti-Coat.

^ that!

Also, maybe a silly question but why do I see people call Opti Coat and Glass "PRO" when AG nor OPT website calls it such?

The "Pro" version of the coatings are much more concentrated then the consumer versions. They are also harder to work with and because of this they are only sold to approved detailers who have filled out the waiver form (Business info) and understad the application process. The Pro coatings can only be purchased directly though Optimum and hey are also available with a warranty. ;)
