Paint Prep is the perfect product to use on your paint before applying a coating like Optimum Gloss Coat. After washing, decontaminating and polishing the paint you are ready to apply your favorite coating. To ensure the surface is clean and free from oils found in many polishes use the Optimum Paint Prep. It safely removes any residue left on the surface so your coating will apply with ease and bond with the surface properly for maximum durability. This item will be available at Detailed Image in the 17oz and 128oz size. We hope this item is in stock shortly after SEMA, click here<\/a> for pricing.<\/p>\n Gloss Coat is greatly improved! Try out this new item and notice the improved durability and gloss. Some weekend detailers feel intimidated by coatings because they are a little more challenging to apply, but the new Gloss Coat makes applications so easy virtually anyone can use them with ease. When you’re done it looks very glossy and your paint will be well protected. Best of all we’ve been able to keep the pricing the same so you get an even better product for the same price! We don’t have a firm date but we expect to have the new version in stock shortly after SEMA.<\/p>\n Optimum really likes their Zen Tool Buffer, which resembles a Rupes buffer, but it’s much more affordable. Last year they came out with the 21mm and this year they are introducing a Mini version which has a 12mm throw. It looks like a nice tool that is easier to afford. DI has yet to pick these up so please let us know what you think!<\/p>\n Optimum releases three new products at SEMA Show 2015!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":31,"featured_media":18278,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[943,832],"tags":[178,590,1481,1513,1333,1514],"class_list":{"0":"post-18230","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-aap-news","8":"category-sema","9":"tag-optimum","10":"tag-paint-prep","11":"tag-sema","12":"tag-sema-2015","13":"tag-sema-show","14":"tag-sema-show-2015"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Mini-Zen1.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1kPO7-4K2","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18230","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/31"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18230"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18230\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18264,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18230\/revisions\/18264"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18278"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18230"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18230"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18230"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"photo](\"https:\/\/www.detailedimage.com\/Ask-a-Pro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/photo-1-765x1024.jpg\")
