    Your telling no other coating bonds to the paint surface, correct?
    Opti-Coat Pro is unique in many ways because of this fundamental difference in chemistry. Opti-Coat–Pro becomes one with the paint instead of suspending nano particles of a harder substance in a resin. This gives Opti-Coat Pro far superior chemical resistance, as the chemical must break down the SiC, and not break down a resin holding SiO2 nano particles.
    Based on what Yvan says here, they all "bond" with the paint but Opti-Coat bonds directly instead of using a resin as a medium. Let me be clear. I am not claiming to be an expert on the chemistry of coatings. I`m simply relaying info that was given to me to explain what makes OCP unique. Based on this information, I`m guessing the use of Essence would hinder the Opti-coat`s ability to bond directly to the paint.

    As far as removing to re-coat a panel. Any good coating is going to require a compound or sanding to remove. In order to insure that the coating is removed, you would be cutting into the very top layer of the clear coat.

    Steel melts at 1370 F, the car will melt before either OCP or a "less durable" SiO2 coating like CQuartz

    Common sense will take you the answer to this.
    I can take a polish/Compound and compound any of the coatings off. Bet I do not need 1370F to remove the coating
    I will take it a step deeper bet I can take factory clear coat off and yes not need 1370 f to remove the clear coat.

    Guys think before you drink the coating manufacture`s kool aid

    They listed where it falls on the MOHS scale simultaneously.
    It`s useful information.

    sweet...because im scared to essence a car before PBL if it might affect the bonding even a bit

    im running my own test on my roof with essence and a few paste`s but I doubt I will stick with it long enough to provide any good feedback
