V3 Auto Detailing is now offering a permanent paint coating. There will be no more reason to wax you car with this coating. It is perfect for the harsh WNY weather conditions we face. Right now the test have gone sevral years, water is still sheeting right of the car as the day it was applied. It is highly recomended that the paint be fully corrected before it is applied. It will not fill in any swirl marks or hide any defects. Once its on your car the defects will stay untill the coating is removed with an abrasive product. I will not make this long or get into all the specs of the product. If anyone is intrested send me an Email, Pm me or can always call me at 716-698-5548. ---

Factory paint is baked on so you should be ok. Aftermarket paint jobs take 30+ days to fully cure. ---

> [@newman](#): > > Would it be a good idea on a new car? Yes. Very much so. ---------- Post added at 11:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 AM ---------- This is taken from the company, Just to give you guys an idea. I have this on my own cars and will be doing a right up when i get some time on it. Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 is a clear resin coating, much like the clear coat that already exists on your vehicle. And just like your factory clear coat, Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 is meant to be permanent! Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 can be applied to all exterior surfaces. It is not recommended for glass since improper application can affect visibility. For other exterior surfaces, Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 is a highly effective, transparent protective coating. Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 can be applied to: painted surfaces headlights wheels plastic trim bumpers aluminum & chrome surfaces Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 is an additional barrier between the elements and your vehicle’s paint. The paint will retain its color and contaminants will be blocked out to keep the paint smooth and clean. Unlike waxes and paint sealants that require frequent reapplication, Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 provides constant, unyielding protection for the life of your vehicle’s finish! Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 was modified slightly from the original professional formula. (The pro version is still available under the Opti-Guard name.) Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 cures more slowly, which gives you more time to apply the coating correctly. Because Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 is permanent, the paint finish has to be properly prepared before applying it. Any blemishes or contamination on the paint will be permanently locked in so remove them first! On a properly prepared paint finish, Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 will look clear, smooth, and clean. Note: Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 is not to be confused with other waxes, sealants or nano-coatings, this is different. Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 uses a resin technology that forms a permanent bond to paint and cures, just like an extra layer of clear coat. ---

I wouldn’t trust that One of the major benefits of wax IS that it comes off and you can put a fresh coat on. What’s to say that this clear coat won’t damage or need a coating of its own? If it was that easy, wouldn’t paint companies already be using it as a clear coat? ---

What’s to say that this clear coat won’t damage or need a coating of its own? If it was that easy, wouldn’t paint companies already be using it as a clear coat? This will come of with a light polish. But would then need to be reapplied. Its not for everyone, More for the people who hate keeping up on there cars. ---
