I kind of fell off the coating bandwagon some years ago when what I guess was the first consumer coating, Opti-Coat 2.0, was replaced by Gloss Coat, which was an inferior hybrid coating (as opposed to OC 2.0 which was a SiC coating, a more diluted version of the Opti-Coat Pro of the day). Anyway, I have been thinking about maybe trying one of the newer coatings, and was intrigued by a comment here or at AGO about using Dr. Beasley`s primer polish, which doesn`t require a panel wipe after using.
So looking into this, I see that not only Dr. Beasley, but Labocosmetica (Fiero) and Gyeon have primer polishes, and there are perhaps others. I saw The Guz/Mike G`s review of the Dr. Beasley (including the glass polish), which he stated won`t stain trim. Has anyone used the others and know if they stain trim?
Also, the reviews I was looking at for all 3 that I mentioned seem to say they were all compatible with any coating. Is that the consensus? Being that I really have had no gumption for detailing lately, it sure seems attractive to be able to primer polish without having to mask anything and then go right to coating.
Optimum/Yvan used to say that Hyper Polish was the Optimum primer polish (apparently for the pro applicators they labeled the Hyper as Primer--if I understood that correctly), but I believe you still had to panel wipe before coating.
