I don't think thinner will remove it once cured. 3000 grit or a compound will do it or a couple passes with an aggressive polish.

While this isn't OC, there was a video shown on DW where they took some cured CQuartz and placed it in a beaker with some kerosene to show that it's unaffected by solvents....from my understanding OC is the same....Chris, a test like this would be good for OC too.

I just hope Dr. G will make a specific booster spray for Opti-coat. This coating rocks and would love to see something designed for it with gloss and good looks like the Quick Detailer offers.

You mean kind of like Cquartz ReLoad? Though that's not really a "spray" in the sense you're describing.

exactly ... although I was not anamoured with the original Reload. I am working thru Avi to hopefully try the newer version with better results. I would also love to see an Optimum version.

An Optimum product like Reload would be awesome. G|techniq C2 is a similar product to Reload from what I gather, but i think it is a stand-alone product more so than ReLoad.

We have been working very hard to bring a version of Opti Coat to the consumer market and the wait is almost over. Stay tuned for more information over the next few weeks.

Wow, that's certainly some interesting news, although I'm going to have to guess that the consumer version will be to Opti-Coat as C2 is to C1 in the GTechniq line.

Excellent. After I get a little practice with polishing, etc I'm very interested in these "super sealants" for our DD's. With Optimum originally wanting to keep this as a special for the pro detailers, thought I would have to go the CQuartz route.
