Rather than retype the info, here's what Antony said in my previous thread where I applied it to a Red MB SL500:
Optimum X meets Red 500SL
I'll try and clear up some misinformation.
It's a coating and not a sealant.
It's permanent or maybe better would be semi-permanent.
It can't be removed with alcohol or dish soap nor prepsol. It can though be removed by means of abrasive polish.
It can be topped with waxes, sealants and I have also used a glaze on it.
It needs at least a few hours for crosslinking before topping it with anything.
Price is not yet set but it won't come in anything larger than a 2 ounces. 2 ounces will give the user at least 4 to 6 applications. The cost *might* be around $90.00 for those 2 ounces. It sounds very pricey but again it's not a product for everyone so if the price is too high there are a great number of products out there that should fill anyones needs.
For the professional detailer he or she can charge an extra $200 or $300 for the application of this coating on top of what you have already charged for paint correction. We have done cars for $1,200.00. People so far are very pleased with it and so far nothing negative about it.....we have had a few cars where we had some over application which may cause some hazing or what looks like streaks. We then polished those areas to even it out and re-applied the product.
This happens much less now as we are more familiar now with application.
Washing is much easier with the coating BUT it's the drying that causes a big smile to appear on most peoples faces. If done correctly one can literally blow dry the entire car and leave nothing to be wiped off.
So is this product going to cure world hunger and stop Britney from flashing everyone?? NO (although someone or something needs to stop Britney)!! Is it for everyone? NO. But it will fit in nicely with those people looking for a great base with long term durability.
Hope this helps....oh yeah, I have no idea when i's going to be released....lastly, if you can apply Ultima, CS or OS you can also apply Product X, it's that easy.
