    Topping opti coat

    Hey everyone,

    installed opticoat (glosscoat 2.0) on my truck about 1.5 years ago . Currently holding up really well but as winter is nearing wanted to add some protection. Thinking of topping it with gyeon wet coat. Yes I know topping opticoat, as others have put it, can be pointless or waste of time. However, has anyone had experience with this? And if so, do the two products play well together?

    Why not polish and put on another coat of OptiCoat?

    Dr.G recommend to put Opti Seal over any of opticoat, there is an authorize installer specific product as well but for normal consumer go with Optiseal.

    He talking about opticoat not GlossCoat. Opticoat is expensive an only authorized installer can do them now. He just want a bit more protection.

    I could polish and apply another coat however wet coat is 20$ max and can be worked into to my wash routine after a light Decon and seemingly been done much faster .... in theory of course

    Try cure or reload. They both work fine with gloss coat.
