the owner could not believe what seems to be so worn out came back like new





sun shots





a well maintained rubber by optimum coating







I did not recoat ...any ...as i wanted to test how well optimum coating last in tropical & acid rain inflicted country of ours.



for your kind words, i did the water hosing down test... power clean for him, left a bottle of OPC after my 3rd month visit.... he is Skeptical of POWER CLEAN which i gave him to maintain himself....he was too worried to use it....as it was professional products



What happen after opti coating is, we have an additional coat of clear, that doesnt prevent the car from getting dirty but makes cleaning so effortlessly & more scratch resistant



initially he complaint - how come opti coating wear off so quickly...After I showed him how i Power clean ....he was amazed that how this coating lasted as compare initially with his friends coating. Now that he has seen and also asked me to opti coat his cayman, his new A4



conclusion

this car is park daily outdoor on a busy trunk road, very near to industrial area...at times under the tree ...mostly wash by car wash, as they are tight with time`



far best coating i ever experience..

ma ma mia - the best that any owner can request

I love the write up :xyxthumbs Now I`m even happier I have OPC!

I`ve been very impressed with the coating as well. Going strong two years after putting it on my parent`s Lexus and what has now become my Accord. Both bead great, are very easy to wash and still swirl free.

Are their 2 different vehicles in these pics? One car is definitely a GTI and the other appears to be the new 2012 R GTI.



As a GTI owner I can`t wait till the r type goes on sale here in the us.
