When you use the Wagner sprayer, does the stuff go all over the wheels?

Thanks Bro, after a couple cars and getiing used to the trigger I love using it!

That`s why I bought this model, it has a very precise control nozzle. Not only can you avoid the wheels if you`re careful, it can be used in light wind without getting on the paint. Wheel wells are nice and even too!

They have a controlled (adjustable) nozzle tip, shouldn`t be much of a problem. If there is just wipe off.

Looks great! OID is an amazing product for sure!



How is durability with OB? Are you using a 50/50 mix OB/water?

That`s what I was gonna get, but I didn`t want to lug around a compressor. The Wagner had the turbine built into the unit and all I need is power. I`ll bet yours has a little more adjustability, though. Another thing I like is for $24 you can buy a spare tank/nozzle that you can use for QD or spray wax, etc. with just a twist and click.

Thanks man! I`d like to put some rims on it but it`s a great car and everyone thinks it`s new thanks to Optimum!:bigups

I wipe my tires with a damp MF every couple days and never have to reapply till I wash so I guess pretty good. I put it on too thick before I got the gun or diluted to 1:1 and it attracted a ton of dust. I think whether you use the gun or not you should dilute, I`m gonna try 2:1 next time cause I think it could be even thinner and still give enough shine for me!

I`m starting to really like the Optimum brand. I gotta try that Opti-Bond tire gel soon.

You`ll like it and saves on shipping cause i`m always ordering from them anyway

Thank bro, I hate that where we keep our horses has a gravel driveway, I`m wiping the edge of the tread clean daily, but I don` t have to reapply the OB.:heelclick
