Calling for rain Saturday so it may have to wait for me.   I may get a chance to wash on Sunday though.   Any issues with OptiSeal being two weeks old on the paint?

Any issues with applying over a normal polymer sealant, like Menzerna Powerlock?

No, it will bond fine to pretty much any sealant or wax.

I just pulled the jeep out and washed the windshield and treated that...so hopefully I will see a difference in this rain we have.   

Gip, you guys getting killed down there too?   Our lakes are filling up and releasing water now.  Lake Grapevine went from 15 ft down to 8ft up in 2 weeks.

Thanks for visiting the Cafe, come back often.  There's always something new!

So you got the paint wet and misted the product on, then used a good stream to activate the product correct?  If so, did you see how it instantly starts to bead?

Justin, my jeep needs a proper bath but I did get the foam gun out and wash the windshield only, then washed off, sprayed with product then rinsed it off.   

It was like sheeting on the glass since it is so vertical.   Rain is on the way so a good test.

Will the wipers reduce the amount of time it works?

yes using the wipers will reduce the durability. That is what happens with Opti glass too. We barely use ours anymore.

I will do the whole jeep once this damn rain stops.  Cannot complain really.



We are officially out of our drought.

Not as bad as you have been, but more than enough. The South side of town has been getting killed.  Flooding in places that don't usually flood.  All the Bayous are full.
