Just wondering if anyone has coated anything else besides their vehicles.. I know it's not made for other uses really but I was thinking this stuff could work for a number of things.. I thought about doing my cell phone. I have an old one I could try first. I bet it would do pretty good. I don't know.. just a thought.

Good question. I wonder if I can use it in my bath shower and apply it to the shower tile?

I know David Fermani applied it to a few things, including a phone. I applied it to a dryer during some testing. :D

Did my entire shower interior a couple of weeks ago... tile & grout, brightwork, clear glass enclosure, everything except the floor. Stays clean with almost no effort.

Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0
Even though the application instructions indicates that it should not be used on windshields and I'm sort of curious why? A clean and polished windshield seems it should be an ideal surface for Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 ...
Does anyone use it on their windshield and if so what is your opinion good or bad?

Bobby I think the reasoning is so that the company doesn't get sued if something happens due to a glare issue. I know many people have used it on their windshields with great results.

You know it!!! :buffing:
From my testing, I'm only having to bathe her once every 3 years now -vs-every week. Plus her coat has an amazingly smooth, glossy finish :)

I've heard Opti Coating windows is a NO NO. Have you discovered something you would like to share BobbyG?

HAHA, if I did I would share it believe me.
I've heard the same thing as you Philbert. It just seems like a windshield would be an ideal surface for a hard coating like Opti-Coat, sort of like Aquapel on steroids is you know what I mean...yet according to the writeup it's not...
