Re: Another Sienna vs Optimum
Opti-Seal via black pad? How did that work? I've never heard of anyone applying Opti-Seal by machine.
Curious!

What's that complicated in it?
Slap on a finishing pad, spray on 4-5 spritzes of OOS and apply it with low RPMs. Works beautiful. |

I didn't say it was complicated! Believe me, I understand the simplicity. Just never heard of anyone doing that before. It seems it would take longer to apply it that way.

Re: Another Sienna vs Optimum
Thanks guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sixty7mustang22 - VOTEX - It was the first Euro version in the states (2001)
a.k.a. Patrick - I did use my ridgid to extract the water. PS on an orange pad finishes fantastic if you work it in until it is gone. The paint needed to be deep cleansed but I also wanted to finish in 7 hours since I charge by the hour. PS delivered the look I wanted for this color. The owners were very pleased.
J.J. - I apply everything with the pc. Never anything by hand. For me it is much faster.
