Re: Scholl S0, S3XXL, Reflect, CarPro Flash Pad and Flex Kompakt PE8 + CQuartz DLUX = ???
Very nice Claude! Will definitely try this out on next set of headlights. Looks like I'll be talking to Corey soon about getting a quart of S0.
Fwiw, the top on the quart bottle sucks too.

Ha ha, this is like the discussions about "wheel wax" and if it's made to stand up to the harsh wheel environment, shouldn't it be great on paint as well, or conversely, is it really any different than "paint wax" and is it the mfr. just trying to sell you a different jar of basically the same stuff.
So Opti-Lens was supposed to be pretty much the same as Opti-Coat or Opti-Coat 2.0, with the addition of UV absorbers. I did find OC 2.0 to not be so great on headlights, Opti-Lens does seem to be better, how much better I'm not sure yet. But it does beg the question of whether extra UV absorbers would be a benefit to paint as well...
Opti-Glass, on the other hand is supposed to be a different animal from Opti-Coat and Opti-Lens, specifically meant to bond to glass.

Yes, I wanted to get a small bottle of the S0 to try for this too, but I think AG only sells the 35oz. I did get a the Flash Spot pad though. Going to try it with Optimum Comp II sometime to see how aggressive it is. The S0 is on the wish list for another day.

I am in going to be buying a flex pe8 soon and would love to try this method out. I have a question though. Do you think the pe8 would be able to fish on this project using a appropriate pad polish combination? Or do you feel a DA is necessary to polish the plastic? The reason I ask is cause all I have in my polishing tools right now is the flex 3401. I am also considering buying the Rupes mini.
