    Re: Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 Permanent Paint Coating

    The product was just released late last week, so I really doubt it`s in many people`s hands yet (aside from those who were at Autogeek`s DetailFest) but I too am anxious to start seeing some reviews on it since I plan to obtain and use it in the near future.

    Yes, I spoke to a couple of folks at Detail Fest that have already been using it. They discussed and demonstrated the proper way to apply it and the fact that unlike wax or sealant it is a PERMANENT coating. They did state that the ONLY way to get Opti-Coat 2.0 off is to polish it off. I ordered some and will give it a try when it arrives.

    I got some at DF also. Not sure when I`ll use it though. Can`t decide on which car to try it on.

    One bad thing though. When I got back, I opened the box and there were no instructions. Guess I`ll have to look for them somewhere.

    I agree John...waiting on this crazy Kentucky weather.....

    I was at the class at the AG Detail Fest I was very impressed with the ease of application and wonderful testimonials from many of the folks.
    I just got an AG-UPS confirmation that my Opti-Coat 2.0 order is on its way. (Thank You Meghan!) It really almost sounds "To good to be true".
    I`m real excited to apply it and try it out. It looks like I have a bit of "polishing to perfection" ahead of me before the Opti-Coat 2.0 application.

    How would you describe the finished look once it has cured? Is it a carnauba or sealant type look? Depth, warmth, shiny, wet, glossy, Saran Wrap?

    Can`t say definitively. On my silver flake altima it looks just like Opti seal maybe a little more gloss. Made a red 500sl look deeper and actually darker. Did a speed yellow cayman and it didn`t look any different than bare paint. Whatever your prep is, it will amp it up with gloss.

    Re: Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 Permanent Paint Coating

    Chris,

    How much harder is Opti-coat 2.0 than factory OEM clear coat?
    I know this is an open question as this may vary from car to car.

    I have encountered a few vehicles with very soft clear coat.
    Good News: The soft clear coat buffs out the swirls pretty easy.
    Bad New: Due to the fact the CC is soft they come back easy.

    Re: Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 Permanent Paint Coating

    I wouldn`t classify Opti-Coat or CQuartz as sealants. Since they provide both permanent and semi-permanent protection, they would fall into the "Coatings" category. Sealants will typically give you about 6-8 months of actual protection with proper maintenance.

    This is just another example of how advanced the car care industry is getting, and it`s extremely exciting to say you were around when car care was taken into the next level. Right now it`s these resin, or nano coatings, the microfiber correction systems, waterless washes. Who knows what`s going to come next.
