Opticoat Pro maintenance
Hi
I recently got a Suntek Clear bra and Opticoat Pro on my NX. The detailer was good and mentioned not to use polish on the Opticoat. He prefers a 2 bucket at home wash method but that is not always the easiest for me based on where I live so will be going to a local hand car wash. My question is on one of their packages is Armor All Body Shield along with a Factory Finish. Anybody know about these products to let me know if they can have negative effects on the Opticoat Pro?

don't waste your money on it. If you can't do the two bucket, try ONR waterless wash. All your coating will really need is proper maintenance and a sprucing of a sealant like Carpro reload every couple months
"Hand Wash" may still scratch your car. Because of the drought here, I took my SUV to a local hand wash recently (I haven't let anyone else touch my cars in the last ten years at least). They reuse their wash and drying towels, and my finish came out with very fine scratches. I was willing to risk this since I was going to polish and coat my SUV anyway.
Washing at home with ONR and a new MF towel on every panel avoids scratching the paint. ONR is rinseless, not waterless. Waterless washes are different (Poorboy's spray and wipe for example).
