Stripped opti-coat ... 22PLE now on the car.

The OC has been a good product, but of course I just put this on, but I have to say I like the look better. Here`s a few pics with the 22PLE added.

Yeah, my garage is dirty... so what? lol

After a second coat

Sorry, I can`t get pics of the other side. There isn`t much space to take pictures

Take it outside and give us some sun shots.

Excellent!

It`s hard for me to gage the difference between OC and the 22ple looking at my computer screen. Maybe you`ll comment a bit more in a few days after you`ve had some time to appreciate it and it`s had time to fully cure. It looks very nice from what I can see

...and I`d expect it to.

You bought 20mL, right? That`s enough to cover the car twice?? Do you feel the 2nd coat made a marked difference? How was the application compared to OC? What sort of applicator did you use?

Thx.

hwell: Whatever makes you happy though!!

BTW, how did you "strip" the OC off?

I just put it on to thin, but 20 ml IMO is plenty to do a whole car. I opted not to do the roof since it`s already coated... i`ll just keep it clean.

Looking good. Is that a carbon fiber gas lid?

it`s a fake painted one that I did. I had a dent in it and when I bought the paint for it, it was a shade to dark so I just went ahead and did that for right now.
