Thank You Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHALM Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 For me (others may have a different process) but when making a repair, I tend to run it the course of the entire panel. For example, making a repair to the driver's fender....I'll repair the desired part and then polish the remainder of the panel with Hyper Polish to allow the new application to adhere. If there is a physical divider/rub strip involved (e.g. door) then I'll only recoat the section that had the repair, not the entire door. In my experiences, OC will "blend" just fine with an older application. It's not like having a car resprayed and color matching. As far as defect removal (water spots) under the coating, when you have removed it, that will be the sign that you have made it through the coating. If you have high spots on the coating (from the application process) then a light polish on those highs will take care of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fjd726 Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 What do you use to take care of the high spots? I tried Opt Hyper Polish today with Microfiber pad on PC and it took all of the opti coat off. What can I use to only scuff it without removing the opti coat?

Paul S Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Poli-Seal is my go to product for removing high spots. Picked up this tip from Tom Weed and I want to give thanks and credit where credit is due. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
