30 days later... She spent another night with us & I went to view how the opti coating work....and soon discover another ... disheartening side....



be prepare

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-FxrvxuB5-2M/T0IfKgvKWlI/AAAAAAAAE14/0wd4146H5AQ/s800/IMG_3801.JPG



I question & ask why? why there was not precaution in avoiding this?

Sadden me and yet i am sparks to see how it react, straight away I grab my camera & hose off it off with water

(not even with a pressure jet, as I dont like to use them - as the pressure may dimple the clear coat & damages paint in long run)




as opti coat the Ceramic Polymer Resin claims to have a better scratch resistance, UV resistance, and chemical resistance than any other Car Paint Protection

Opti-Coat does not degrade and cannot be removed by chemicals such as heavy duty truck wash or even caustic degreasers. It is totally resistant to these chemicals and produces a permanent film that is chemically bonded with the factory paint layers. Opti-Coat is the most effectively paint protector , best for the vehicles new outer clear coat

Nice write-up, KC. I`ve had similar experiences with Opti-Coat, can`t say enough good things about it.

Thank Scottwax for your kind words

Yupp...absolutely astonishing

[Dan]

I`ve observed the same. Tar that used to require a strong solvent to remove now just washes off with a regular wash mitt. Nothing seems to stick to Opticoat.

Thank Dan for confirming that ... yupp nothing seems to stick...but your $$$ now is stick to your pocket & not flow out anyhow.....

Cheers

Great work KC, I actually just jumped on the Opti-Coat bandwagon and if it can help with Tar sticking all over my rockers, it will be well worth it.
