Duragloss Nano Clear Seal vs Optimum Opti-Guard

[Garlic]

My 2 cents if I may, have only used it on light colors (white and silver).

 

Prep procedure is similar for both products.

 

I personally find Nano Clear more user friendly as it gives more "feedback" during application, its also more forgiving. OC 1.0 cures within an hour and you discover a streak after that, the only way to remove it is to repeat prep and application procedure on entire panel.

 

As for durability, its still too early to tell as its only been couple of weeks since I applied Nano Clear on the other car.

 

OC 1.0 has been on my white car below for a year and water is still sheeting off surface like day one, car is parked outdoors all the tie.

Some comparisson going on....

 

 

OC hazes in the heat on dark colors?

 

Interesting finding, might be worth the effort starting a discuss at OPT's tech forum.

I had tried the Permanon before.

I will give it a miss, the DG 951 works better IMHO in terms of application method.

Permanon is not in the same league, glossy easy to apply but not very permanent. forgive the pun. Price disproportionately expensive for the length of coverage. Got free bottle to give away.

[Arixlim]

where to get free bottle..?
