    Already is a star, made the white paint on my daily really pop, which is quite difficult to pull off.

    I’m on my second gallon of Optimum Car Wax and love it.

    I usually use it while the panels are still wet with McKees rinseless W&W.

    Anyone use this stuff on top of mckees 360 ? I just want to know if they play well together or if I will have any issue with them. I only plan on the 360 twice a year maybe and then this stuff during maintenance washes once a month or every other month.

    Nice testimony.

    Perfect for many cars and lazy people.

    Re: Patented UV Protection - Optimum Car Wax - by Dr. Ghodoussi at Autogeek.com

    I am confused now.. sorry, but I was under the impression that I can do a regular wash, spray a couple sprays on a panel, wipe it all around the panel and go on my way.. but I was reading that description in the AG Store and it mentions using a foam pad and buffer ?
    Do i have to use my d/a or can i apply by hand, and is it better to use foam pad or microfiber towel to wipe in to the panel ?

    All of the above is correct or okay to do.... depends on you, your skill level and what tools you have and what you want to accomplish.


    I "think" this product was originally intended to be a spray on wax to a car that had been washed and dried and the paint was already in good condition. For this apply like a spray detailer, mist on, spread around with a micforiber towel then fold to a dry side of the towel (or switch to a dedicated dry wiping towel), and then wipe off excess and buff to a high shine.

    The above is how I normally use it, that is like a spray detailer.


    That said, I think it was Yvan Lacroix (or someone else), that found it worked great to use as a wax-as-you-dry type product. So wash and rinse off your car, then mist onto wet car and then dry car with microfiber chamois like the Guzzler or microfiber towels.

    And "yes" you can apply it by machine. I tried this probably 6, 7 or 8 years ago and while it worked I wasn't a fan of the process. If you try, be sure to use a clean soft foam waxing pad and apply at low speed.

    OK great, thanks a lot Mike !! I like how you explained it, I'll use it the same way with the folded towel method.

    Ha

    The nice thing about this product is it's very simple. Spray-on, spread-around, wipe-off.


    Repeat to all the horizontal surfaces after every wash to maintain UV protection to the max.
