    Would OCW be good to use over Opti-Seal

    Hi, I've just compounded/polished/poliseal/optisealed my fathers c6 corvette. Over the last week or so I've put 3 coats of Opti-seal. It looks really really good, but I've got some optimum spray/quick wax that I havnt tried yet. Is the protection of OS better than OCW ? Is the look of...

    FS: Red Machine GLAZE

    I have a new bottle of this, and its great, but it doesnt have enough filling for me. Its only been used once on one car so its like 95% full. 16 shipped? OH, or I'll trade it for a different glaze that fills really good. I hear 3M glaze does this. Let meknow

    Would Opti-Seal work over 476s and s100?

    I've got a few layers of 476s on my car and one layer of mixed s100/476s. Would putting a coat of opti seal over that reduce the longevity of the waxes, or anything? I just like the look of opti-seal better, I think. Any thoughts?

    Anyone tried S100 + 476s ?

    I have a a coat or two of 476s only on my car right now. Its looking real good, just washed it up today. After reading through the hybrid wax thread, I figured I should try melting some s100 with the 476s. Well I did that, but now I'm wondering if anyone else has tried it, or even tried...

    "Burnishing" in wax ? What is the deal..?

    I was reading an article in a Roundel magazine the other day and this guy was talking about how you have to "burnish" carnuaba wax in to get the best finish. By this he meant put one coat on (by machine only, he says) and then let it haze, and the put another coat on OVER the hazed first coat...

    Can I mix RMG with Poli-Seal or OP?

    My car isnt really swirled up or anything, but I want to just help it a little bit. Would RMG+OP on an orange pad work? Would the RMG still bond and work right if OP was mixed in? I thought I read about people mixing it in with other stuff... can someone explain? What about mixing it in w/...

    Do I need to 'remove' old LSP's before I put down new stuff.....

    I have poli seal topped with many many coatings of OS, and I think some #26 thrown in there. I want to polish this out a bit with OP, and then put down RMG then collinite 476s for the winter. Do I have to do anything special, or can I just do OP, wipe off with MF, then do RMG, then do 476s...

    Is it OK to not buff off every last drop of 476s?

    And then just wash the car in 2 or 3 days to take care of any left overs? I put a heavy coat on my hood tonight, and buffing it off just scares me because I have to rub so much and so hard. I dont want to mess up my nice polishing job. I cant really see any wax left, but you know if you...

    Waterspots WTFFFFFFF

    My car seems to have trouble with water. Earlier in the summer it got some water drips on it while parked under a tree, and it etched them in pretty badly on the horizontal surfaces. It had about 5 coats of opti-seal over poli-seal on it when this happened. So I polished it all out again, and...

    WTB: P21s, S100, or similar paste waxes

    Looking for a small chunk of any of these. Like half a tin or so, but let me know whatever you got.

    Is it OK to use qd to help remove dried wax?

    Well I just put some collinite 476 on for the first time. did hood, left it on there for probably too long, ~30 mintues. It appeared to come off easily, but when I hit it with the halogens i kept seeing little hazes appear and it took quite a lot of pressure and rubbing to get them to go away...

    Why does my paint seem LSP ready after compounding?

    The first time I compounded/polished/etc my car a few months ago, I noticed that after using OHC the finish seemed smooth and shiny, and then I used OP with orange pad and it looked pretty much the same. I never noticed any of this 'micromarring' stuff. So today I had to repolish my hood...

    WTB: Glazes

    I want a good filling glaze that is sealant compatible. I want to top it with opti-seal, so it has to work with that well. I cant get an answer on which one is really good for that, so let me know what you have that might work. PM me :waxing:

    What Glaze Should I use??

    Hi. I've been steadily learning about things on here for a few months. I've had a PC and am fairly good with it. My car, even though it has about 5 coatings of opti-seal has picked up some water mark etchings. So I figure I will re-polish it soon. It has some deep scratches and and the paint...

    How to apply PASTE WAX w/ PC ?

    I just got some collinite 476s... The stuff seems like cold butter in consistency, I dont even know where to begin to apply this stuff! I am used to nice liquids. What is the best way to get the stuff onto the foam pad, and then from the pad to the paint? Is it really a complete waste to do...
