    Glad to hear you are ok. If you get a tank those pesky retaining walls wont be an issue. Your gas mileage may suffer a bit though.

    Cars are replaceable, people aren`t. Glad you are okay.

    On a side note, does the coating reduce the longevity of wax`s and sealants?

    And the new version will last way longer with more gloss than the version you tested. Glad you are ok. Wow.

    Ouch. Glad to hear you are ok. In the end it`s just a car. The important thing is you are ok.

    By the way thanks for that last beading shot. Perhaps the folks at the scene thought you hit your head or something getting those beading shots.

    Looking forward to seeing what you get next.

    Ray, I`m really glad to hear that you are OK. Cars can be replaced. So... we know that Gloss Coat doesn`t hold up well against walls and won`t keep sheet metal from bending. I`m still thinking this might buff out.

    Glad to hear you`re alright!

    Correct me if I am wrong though... I thought these ceramic coatings would protect against damage like this? You must not have applied enough coats.

    Re: :( Final Update On Optimum Gloss-Coat

    First, I`m glad to see you survived OK, Ray.
    Far better to trash a busted Sable than fix a busted Vega.
    I showed your post to a few of my co-workers just to prove I`m not the premier detail geek on the planet.
    Taking beading pictures while the car is being winched on the flatbed sets a new high level in reviews!
    Best of luck in obtaining a fitting replacement.
