I tried Opti-Coat 2.0 which is replaced now with new version Optimum Gloss-Coat.. Many great paint coatings now available from other brands like CQuartz, Pinnacle, Blackfire, DP.. Read reviews and...
Welcome to AGO and congrats on the new Jeep!
Mine is 1.5 years old now and still shines like a brand new Jeep because I'm taking good care of it myself by protecting it since day 1 and then properly...
Not sure about perfect finish but I used Sonax premium class paint cleaner right before applying PNS with no issues, I've seen videos by Sonax where they go directly from that paint cleaner polish to...
How old are those tires you're talking about? I'm not a pro but from my experience, I had to repeat the cleaning process (spray APC, scrub hard with tire brush then rinse with PW/hose) 4-6 times to...
I think if you foam the whole car first then start claying, the foam will dry and the last few panels won't be wet enough for claying!
IMO it's easier to use RW as a clay lube and you don't have to...
I tried sheepskin mitts, they don't last long enough and the good quality ones are expensive and require special care to keep them good for longer..
I also tried micro chenille mitts (supreme gray...
I clean my wheels throughly (with APC and Sonax FE) once every 6 months then coat them with Dlux (or paint coating if I have some), tires also get scrubbed multiple times with APC then 2 or 3 coats...

Don't use it on paint!
Some say if used properly, it won't scratch the paint.. But how can you control this bulky/heavy thing and let it barely touch the surface while using on vertical panels?!...
Better to mount them first then clean and coat them coz they'll get dirty and maybe the counting will get some scuffs during mounting if coated first..

- Pressure will not affect the coating,...
I've used both BFCS and SPNS..
BFCS is a WOWA sealant that is much easier to apply than SPNS and IMO the paint looks better with BFCS.. SPNS is more durable though (6months vs 3months).
I also have...
This cover is on the top of my list (Covercraft Weathershield HP), is it still holding up well?
Basically I'm looking for protection from dust and sun only, is it really soft and light enough for...
Hair dryer (or depending on weather conditions where you live, leave it in sunlight for couple hours) and use goo gone to help removing the adhesive while you peel it off..
Then wash and seal/wax..

I have it and I agree it's not a great stand alone glass cleaner and it doesn't flash/evaporate as quick and easy as Meg's d120 that I use more often.. I just use it as a "topper" to opti-glass...
