Great job!

Least aggressive product first = The MOST aggressive process (product/pad/machine speed) that will get the job done by removing the LEAST amount of paint, with the LEAST amount of work, in the LEAST amount of time.

HMW3,

I see you used PoliSeal, then followed it up with OptiSeal. If memory serves me correctly, PoliSeal is and AIO product and OptiSeal is more of an LSP. Did you use the OptiSeal as a topper? If so, are you finding a noticable difference by adding it? I'm really liking my bottle of PloiSeal, but haven't ordered the Opti yet. Looking forward to your thoughts.

Looks great as usual...where did you get all that Sunshine today?  We've been in rain here in HS.

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

Yes, I'm using Opti-Seal as a topper. Not necessarily for looks, but for a little added protection. I've been getting pretty good durability from this combo, and Opti-Seal is extremely easy to apply. It's what I've got on my own truck now too.

It would have been nice for us to get a little of that rain up here. The pasture could sure use it.  :rain:
