NewbieDetailer Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I've never machine polished a car, but I'm not new to Optimum. A little over two years ago, I bought the largest container of ONR, and I've been washing my truck since. It's saved me a lot of time! I registered, because I think I made a mistake with my recent purchases... I bought both Opti-Coat and Opti-Seal thinking that I would use a few coating of Opti-Coat to strengthen the clear coat on my car. Then I'd used Opti-Seal to top it off and make it shine. After reading the forums, it seems like I need to take one route or the other since Opti-Coat is said not to stick to itself. The Opti-Coat also doesn't seem to have as shiny a coat as Opti-Seal. Finally, Opti-Seal alone would be more forgiving if I make a mistake with the PC 7424XP and Optimum Polish on the 2006 BMW I'm going to work on. I'm thinking of returning the Opti-Coat to the third-party vendor. Do you have any advice? Thanks, Newbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewbieDetailer Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 Thanks, Chris. Originally, I thought Opti-Coat COULD indeed be layered, but there were comments on the optimum forums that it could not since it "does not bond to itself." I was discouraged. Now, however, I will keep the opti-coat, but I might return the opti-seal. Newbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
