Packing Info
Comes in the normal optimum 17 oz. bottle. I really love these bottles as they are so thin and dont take up much room. The blue is cool to but of course that doesnt effect much.
Optimum Description
Optimum Protectant Plus is another innovative product from OPT that cleans, restores, and protects leather surfaces, vinyl surfaces, and moldings. Optimum Protectant Plus has a balance of cleaners, penetrating oils, and UV inhibitors that restores the original color of these surfaces, protects against and hides any scratches, and protects against sun damage.
Just like automotive paint which has undergone major changes in technology, automotive leather and vinyl surfaces have also improved considerably in the past decade. Nearly all automotive leather surfaces are treated with special chemicals that provide resistance to scratching and marring, increase their durability, and provide protection from weathering. The chemistry of vinyl surfaces has improved dramatically as well to give these surfaces leather look and leather feel. The vinyl surfaces are also treated with similar chemicals as those used for automotive leather to increase their durability and to provide protection from weathering.
These protective chemicals are lost over a period of a few months. Optimum Protectant Plus cleans these surfaces and replenishes the protective chemicals while adding UV protection to these substrates. Most leather or vinyl protectants in the marketplace leave an oily film behind on these surfaces which gives them a glossy look and an slick feel. Since these products are not absorbed into these surfaces, they last a few days and mainly act as a dust magnet.
Optimum Protectant Plus keeps leather supple and helps reduce cracking of vinyl and leather surfaces, as well as reducing scratching and marring. Optimum Protectant Plus penetrates and adheres to these surfaces; therefore, it does not make these surfaces oily or slick and provides lasting protection. Optimum Protectant Plus also works great on the outside trims and moldings. These are just some of the reasons why Optimum Protectant Plus is preferred by many detailing professionals
Color/Scent
The liquid has a milky color to it and the smell is very suttle. I cant put my finger on the smell, but it does smell a touch like ocw.
How i used it
I sprayed it on the trim and spread with an mf, it dries smooth and not streaky. I also used it on the leather. It made it nice and smooth and gave it a very matte finish.
Thoughts
This is NOT the protectant for the gloss folks. On some trim it will look like there is nothing on it. It leaves the shine that i compare to meguiars quick interior detailer. It has very low levels up shine. I really like the look on leatehr and trim, but sometimes a touch more gloss would be desired.
