    Re: Interior Windshield Cleaning

    I have tried over 2 million different Window and windscreen cleaning solutions and I don't exaggerate.

    My current solution is Adams Brilliant Glaze. There is a youtube video on this, and it is...

    Re: Car Pro

    Yes, definitely slicker than Opti Coat and Opti Gloss Coat, it hasn't attracted much dust, so probably is anti-static.

    Re: Car Pro

    I had another look and the 50ml bottle is probably about 1/4 gone - so 12.5ml. I did a complete coverage of the paint - no Glass or anything. There is not much paint work to be honest.
    I could...

    Re: Car Pro

    I applied Gliss 3 days ago to my little Black Golf. It had Opti Gloss Coat applied about a year ago but the car lives outside 24/7 and is not that well looked after.
    I did a wash with strong...

    Re: Car Pro

    I bought some Gliss and will put on my 4 cars this weekend ( if it spreads that far).
    I also bought some WG 3.0 sealant so not sure which product on what car.

    All cars bit different;

    Re: For those that have coatings

    I think i have a problem.
    I topped my Opticoat 2.0 with Optigloss.
    I then use Adams brilliant glaze and then FK1000p over the top of all of this.

    I am sure it is a waste, but i cant control...

    Re: Opticoat 2.0 and Gloss Coat Drops per ml

    Definitely 10ml is adequate for even a large car.
    From my use as just one date point, 5ml for a small car, 7ml for mid size and 9 for a large.
    It spreads really thin, so if you put too much...

    Re: 303 Automotive Protectorant Review

    I use in on tires as well, I dont like high gloss and I think 303 makes the tires look more like a new tire than a shined up glossy one.
    It lasts between car washes so is good enough for me.

    Thanks Kev,

    Pretty much what my plan is for the last 10ml of Opticoat 2.0 I have saved up for my Porsche Macan when it arrives later in the year.

    More good news, the high spots near the door handles were just hand smudges from touching the paint when opening the door. So i wiped them off and all good

    AGO -It does appear that the couple of drops is a bit conservative. I did the math like you and am now fairly confused.

    That said, I coated a W211 Mercedes with OptiCoat 2.0 when it first came...
