The hype is practically making my wallet climb out of my pocket. :lol:
I know a lot of customer's have bought it because I ran out in two days! I am waiting for my new shipment to come in now.

Have you tried it at all?
There's a review in Autopia about it by Justin. But based on the pics he took, not a mayor difference in shine. I'm guessing is the agnle from which it was taken, but I hope I'm wrong.
Have you tried it at all?
Yes I have tried it. You have to put it on VERY thin and a little goes a LONG way. I liked the fact you could put it on and walk away for sure. I hope to have it on whatever car I take the the xceedspeed BBQ but we shall see.

I have it but have not used it yet. Hope to sometime soon. Trying to fill chops and scratches first. From the pics I have seen it looks good but mostly a time saver if used correctly. I will try to get some pics after appying when I do. Also I will review the touchup123 kit I got.
I think you will loike Touchup 123. I have been trying to get that in for a while now but with all of the colors and mixing I think it would be hard for them to have other distributors.

I have tried it and LOVE it!
It gives beautiful wetness, with great definition! You may encounter slight grabbiness with the original applicator, but you can switch to a MF suede and it will glide nicely.
It didn't streak for me, even heavily overapplied.

i gather opti seal is similar to Zaino Clear Seal?
i was interested in getting some opti seal, but no one in Australia stocks it :(

Yep, there are several competing products in this segment. Soft99's Fusso Coat Speed & Barrier is the first modern wipe on walk away sealant, while Z-CS and Opti-Seal are the known ones in the States. Wackchem's (Germany) A1 Minute Wax is another option in Europe.

Over what product did you apply the OS?
I applied it over DG 105 and I liked the results, a very nice shine.

I use the twins and then got opti-seal(put 7 coats :roll: ) and it's been about 10-11 weeks. It still looks wet but the slickness is almost gone. Not bad at all because my car is park outside 24/7 in the Florida heat. Will be trying something new this fall.

I just had my recently re-painted black Dakota finished up to remove the spider webbing left by the body shop using Optimum Polish and then applied Poli-Seal. It looks very reflective. I would like it to look wetter (blacker).
Can I apply a pure Carnauaba wax on top? What about a wax with very mild cleaners affect the Poli-Seal?

Poli-seal is an excellent product. Don't let it fool you while applying. But this tread is about OPTI-seal, not POLI-seal... :lol:

Oops. I meant Opti-seal.

I don't think using a cleaner wax would be a good idea over any type of sealant as it would diminish if not completely remove the underlying product. However, I've never used Opti-seal so it might be a different story. Also, as per the Optimum website:
Opti-Seal can also be used as a base coat under Optimum Car Wax or any other car wax.

Sorry for the late reply guys; I tried the OOS only, but my Minute Wax is hopefully on the way.
Mario, I've tried it over OPS, Victoria Cruising, FK1 2180 and no problems to report.
