    2008 Infiniti gets Opti Coated

    I worked on this car last year and it was time for another clean up session. This car sits outside 24/7, so the obvious choice was Opti Coat.

    Process

    Started with the interior

    vacuum
    HD Total
    Steam

    Of course, while steaming the interior (which was pretty clean) this happened

    Once the storm was gone, I finished up the interior.


    Next step was to clean up the wheels

    Meg`s/HD APC mix and wheel woolies were used

    Last but not least the paint was in need of some tlc.

    APC foam bath
    Dawn foam
    Nano towel to decontaminate
    HD Polish and HD Green light cutting pad
    55% IPA
    Opti Coat Pro
    Duragloss tire shine
    HD Metal on exhaust

    P3220008.jpg by savingspaces33, on Flickr


    P3220006.jpg by savingspaces33, on Flickr

    And here is the finished product

    The depth and reflection off that paint is immaculate.
