Product: Opti-seal
What it is: It a sealant that is allied and left. There is no need for buffing as it dries clear
Price: $22.99 USD for 8 oz
Amount used: much less then an oz. I used very little and still used to much
Directions: (paraphrased): Mist on applicator or panel and apply evenly. The streaks will disappear leaving a clear sealant
How I used: I started by misting my yellow foam applicator pad. When I applied it I could not feel anything. It was not wet or slick like I expected but though oh well it’s what the instructions tell me to do.
I then misted one half of the hood with 1 press of the sprayer. I then applied the sealant as evenly as I could. I then moved onto the next part of the hood.
I continued this until the car was done. I found on large areas I used more then I should have as I felt I needed to apply the product more often then was really needed
During application: So once I applied I went back and checked everything out. Yes there were a few steaks but they disappeared after a few minutes.
It was weird I was not expecting much from this product. I thought how great it can be for how easy it is to use. Boy was I wrong
Results: Stunning. Like I said I was not expecting the car to be that shinny. But boy was I wrong. I don’t often use sealants but my brother used my car for a road trip to Kelowna and so I wanted maximum protection. I wanted something that I knew would work out for the situation. When I stepped back the car was every shinny. I thought it compared in looks to the Wolfgang deep gloss sealant. I would not hesitate to say it was on par. And to boot I was faster and easier to use. Also I went back to look at the car the next day. It looked even better. It defiantly needs the time to cure for the final look.
Durability: I don’t know yet. It has only been a few days so it’s too early to tell
Final thoughts: Man do I love this stuff. Its shinny, which is not something I look for but most people who hire me to detail want shine. This product will deliver that. It was easy to use; cost per application was very little. It performed well, did its job to more then expectations. And finally it’s fast. I had the whole car done in10 minutes.
I think I will be using it as my go to lsp. I am happy as It makes life easy, the customer is happy as the car looks good and the protection is there.
I would defiantly put this on the worth tying list…. But as labar Burton said on reading rainbow… don’t take my word for it.
any comments or questions?
