    Tonya Welcome to Detailing

    I just got back from a short trip and tried the Optimum Power Clean, Car Wash Soap and Optimum Instant Detailer & Gloss Enhancer. Before I started a few hundred mile trip home I was able to get my car washed and use the Optimum Instant Detailer & Gloss Enhancer, just before I started home. Once I made it home here is what my poor car looked like...... BUGS BUGS BUGS and TAR in a few spots!!!

    The window was covered!!!

    Tar on the rims and a few spots on the lower panels.

    Out of habbit I started to pull out my ARO, SCG, PB Bug Squash.. then I thought.. heck no I am going to try my Optimum line. Thanks Integrity.

    Well.... I am could not get over all the foam from my foam gun!!! It looked like something FMIUNS would post, sorry no pic! My car was covered with bubbles!!!! It smells great too!

    I used the Power Clean on the rims, tires and Wheel Wells. It got everything off with very little effort. I really like how many areas you can use this!!!!

    I thought I might have to use the Pwer Clean on the bugs and however they came off with very little effort using just the Car wash soap.
    I am not sure if it was the Instant Detailier that had been applied before I left or the soap that took are of the bugs. Whatever it was.. it was effertless!!! I am very impress! I will try to get some pics in the morning.
    Optimum is oustanding :applause2:

    You are VERY welcome, and I'm glad you like the stuff! I'll bet you came home from your trip early just to wash the bugs off your car, hehe. Was it business, pleasure, or none of my business? Hope you had a good time, be safe!

    It's great to hear that Tonya! I'll have to give the Power Clean and Car Wash a try some time.

    I've never been impressed by the polish line, OPP or the ONR as a QD or a wash

    But as long as they are around, something awesome may come out
    However I think it's time that more people move on from polymer technology and embrace what I'm loving to use

    I really like OPP and OID. Both work great for me.

    First, great review and I agree as I've been more than pleased with every Optimum product I've tried to date.


    Second, Mr Dream Machines/SVR why must you come into someones product review and use it as a means to trash a company?? I don't know what your issue is with Optimum as you bash them on every board I belong to as well as there own forum (which I'll admit took some stones as well as a ton of ignorance).

    I don't get it either......but that's how some people are I reckon.

    Tonya, glad to see you enjoyed the products and their use. The OID does have the ability to leave a polymer film behind so this is what may have made the bug cleaning easier.

    ..... and yes the car shampoo will produce some of the most long lasting suds I have ever seen and while I have never used a foam gun I have had suds last in my bucket for hours on end. It would be great for a foam party, eh?:applause2:

    The OID is the best QD I've used. It just dissappears into the paint and you can IMMEDIATELY see the enhanced gloss and slickness.

    I have tried the Optigel tire dressing and it is pretty good, so far it fas lasted 2 weeks which I think is good

    This stuff is great!!!
    :shrug:It really took care of the bugs and tar with little to no effort :applause2:
    I got generous samples.. but I am going to have to get more!!!:giggle:
    Gald to hear it... I am very impressed!
    :whistle: :shrug:It's OK.. it's a free country.. he can express his opinion.. no biggie. Thanks.. but he didn't hurt my feelings.. so.. it's not for him.. OK:shrug:
    I was glad you posted. I was going to look at one of your threads to make sure... but as soon as I saw all those suds... I thought.. GANG... this looks like something FMINUS would post :giggle:
    I know some time ago you tried to tell me to find a products with multiple uses.... well... Integrity sent me some power clean to try and I was blown away!!! It took me a while but I am figuring it out:applause2: Thanks for the advice:thumb:
    I know I could not belive it!!! Here are some pics I took about 7:30 this morning before the sun was past all the trees.

    Now that is some serious shine!!!!! Slick wet look!!!! Thanks again Integrity!!!

    Thanks for sharing. With so many products, and a limited income,its refreshing to get results back that you can read and see. :applause:

    I use the polishes and compounds all the time and love them. There's a bit of a learning curve and most ppl give up too soon, blaming the product. I never want to use dusting products again!

    BTW I'd love to have a nickel for every time you've posted "I've never been impressed," LOL We know, we get it....moving along, please:bla2:

    I figured it wouldn't bother you but this guy goes out of his way to bash Optimum on this and other forums and its really gotten old. Not to mention it was your review and he said nothing about your review just took the opportunity to get yet another dig in on Optimum. Anyway sorry for detracting from your thread and I agree that the Power Clean and OID are great products. The wash is the next Optimum product I purchase.

    Tonya Welcome to Detailing

    No need to be sorry...... it's fine guys. I hope you try the wash. Sorry I did not take a pic....but.... just go to one of Fminus threads. I knew as soon as I saw all the suds it had to be what Fminus uses.

    I've noticed the same thing and feel the same way. Why not keep your comments down under! You offer nothing except to bitch and moan about one product line. No one cares if you like it or not so bugger off!

    Miss Tonya, It's so refreshing to be appreciated so much. All the thank yous are really not necessary though, hehe. I'd even consider washing your car for you to show you stuff I like, but you're so far away. You'd probably wouldn't let just any guy wash your ride though, huh?

    Again, I'm really glad you like the stuff and thanks to you for the shirt embroidery connection! I can't wait to see them!

    I do like the ONR quite a bit. First (and only) OPT product I've tried. Next on the list is OID and OPP.

    Yeah sorry about that, I just find that OHC doesn't have the cut that it should
    Hi Temp is the best for leveling

    Keep working on the products though, maybe make ones that no one has even come up with yet, whole new categories like an abrasion resistance lifter so that the paint becomes harder once polishing and sealing is done.

    Nothings impossible
