Ok, I applied Opti-coat 2 on the Z today. Initial impressions are very good. Application was very easy, just like Opti-seal. Prep is extensive and "VERY" important. If you are not experienced at machine polishing, best take it to a pro and get the job done right. After that, stripping the paint of any oils, sealants, silicons etc. is crucial in order to get a proper bond. It looks very glossy and reflective, and apparently gets even better as it hardens. I will be doing the rims tomorrow. I removed the wheels, put the snows on, and cleaned them extensively in prep for the Opti-coat 2. I'm looking forward to taking the hose to the paint to see the beading.
