Adam had me coat his Audi S3 a few years back and while he hasn’t gotten rid of it, he picked up a new Audi SQ8 and new it needed the special sauce! I don’t have photos of the exterior because I didn’t wash it this time (check back in a few weeks) but this time, fabric, leather, glass, and wheel coating was on the menu.
The monster 22” Black Optic wheels got removed, polished, prepped, and coated with Opti-Coat Pro.
All exterior glass was coated with Opti-Glass Pro.
The fabric inside (including the alcantara) was coated with Opti-Guard Fabric and the leather and hard surfaces received Opti-Guard Leather.
The fabric and leather coatings have UV inhibitors to help prevent fading and are also hydrophobic to make clean up way easier.
I look forward to seeing this 500hp beast back for care in the future. Thanks Adam for the continued support.
Porsche 911 Carrera 4S - Coating
Michael had brought me his E46 BMW M3 for a Dull Detail, his 2017 Audi S6 for Opti-Coat Pro+, and now it was time to bring his newly acquired 997 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S in for a light correction and Opti-Coat Pro+, Opti-Glass Pro, and Opti-Guard Leather/Fabric.
I learn a lot with this vehicle mainly because of how newer Porsche black is to work with. It is very soft and this causes you to polish it differently. I was able to removed a lot of the oxidation on the car, which can be seen in the first photo because the previous owner had a clear bra on the front end for protection. I also removed the factory rear fender stone guards and replaced them with Opti-Coat PPF in the same shape.
The interior fabric and leather also were coated to help maintain the cleanliness and to prevent fading from harmful UV rays. The Glass was coated with Opti-Glass Pro for chemical and water resistance for about two years.
Looking forward to seeing this car out and about, as well as back in my garage any time! Thanks Michael, enjoy!
Opti-Guard Fabric
Here is a non-car related post but it is just as important. My last couch was old and sadly one of my cats decided it was better used as a litter box than as a couch. It had gotten to the point that the couch was ruined and couldn't be cleaned anymore. We picked up a new couch and I immediately coated the faux-leather (microfiber) couch with Optimum's Opti-Guard Fabric coating. This is an awesome coating that bonds with the fabric to provide protection for up to five years. This is a perfect solution for the carpets and cloth seats in your vehicle and I just happened to find a separate use for it.
