    One question I had tho, is when applying Opti Gloss Coat, did you apply it by doing sectional passes like you would with a DA polisher?

    Up & Down & side to side like in this video?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hey Mark…. how many of those small suede car pro applicator pads do you use to coat an entire car?

    If more then one….. when do you know when the suede pad is spent and time to move on to a fresh one?

    Thanks kindly in advance!

    I can`t speak to gloss-coat, but for oc2.0, cquk and duragloss I go through 2-3 suede applicators using both sides. One for the top and one for each side and bumper.

    How do you know when to change? My best answer is....you`ll know. The applicators get a bit grabby and don`t spread product as evenly. After you use one side and switch to another it will be a noticeable difference that can be monitored.

    Sorry for the late reply..

    I only usually use one. If I have prepped/cleaned the surface thoroughly there is no need to use multiple applicators. I use the suede applicators because I don`t want to over use product. Once it is primed I can use less product and still get great coverage. The only reason I can see to using more than one is if you dropped one on the ground or something.
