My biggest complaint is with OC not looking great...once applied, after 3 months, after one year...on wheels, who cares about the looks, you arent going to see a huge gloss factor on the wheel inners, and if that is a concern, I am not using OC.` I use it because it works pretty well as repelling brake dust, but so does 22PLE and ceramic pro and CQF, all of which LOOK better than OC, IMO!
`
I have OC`d my own car a while back, just the hood to test...didnt reduce the marring I was putting in compared to the fenders, and it waterspotted on me while the fenders didnt.` I cant tell you why, it just happened.` And YES, I applied it correctly and thick enough, and it sat outside for two days, with overnight inside the garage.
`
I have CQ`d about 60-70 cars at this point.` one stands out as having water spotting issues, but that was because while I told the guy to keep the car in the garage overnight, he didnt and it rained that night (within 4 hours after being applied).` Thats not a product issue, thats a user error issue.
`
Personal preference, but I dont like OC for anything but wheels...end of story.` You may not like CQ, but you have no seat time with it.` I dont like OC because I have used it and am not impressed.
`
And the Ceramic pro stuff is a PITA to apply, which is why I dont really like it.`

I did a 3 way comparison on my car with 22PLE, CQF, and CP...
best gloss - CQF
best scratch resistance - CP
best reflections - 22PLE
