Optimum detailing

Sent to gzox and very happy with the outcome. It's been seven months n the only maintenance required is the normal weekend wash using the washing kit sold by them.

Loving mine! I do a Klasse Sealant every 6 months and Meguair's Spray-on wax every month, and detailer every week or 2. The gloss is ridiculous!

Ok so far, shine is still good and beads easily but I also slap on meguiairs quick wax monthly as part of my maintenance ritual

Hi,

Thinking of getting the opti coat done. Any comments so far after having the coating on for a few months now?

This is the effect of Opti-Guard Base coat, with Klasse Sealant mid coat and Meg's Ultimate Spray Wax top coat. Buffed off with Meg's Ultimate Detailer. Windows have 3M Crystalline 50 with Opti-Guard. Josh just did the sealant about a week ago. After today's heavy downpour, my A6H was covered in rain water despite being under a roof. I felt that some pictures were in order so I grabbed the iPhone and here you go. Enjoy.

Hi All,

I got Josh to do up my A6H as well last Saturday.

Overall very happy with his work. Nice chap, who willingly shares tips & trick about the detailing trade. I would recommend him anytime

Have yet to go through the results with a fine toothcomb, but based on the feedback here, he seems to be professional enough to correct any shortcomings.

Hi giga

Nice glossy pics of the car. Yep, he returned to fix some spots he missed and I may need him to come over again to rectify some light swirls which I noticed under bright LEDs

Had Josh work on my A6H as well. Got him to come over the first week of ownership. Had the car sent it without dealer detail on the first day and kept it in a garage until the day he came to Opti-Guard. So far, I'm very satisfied with the level of service though I've noticed some small mistakes here and there. He makes monthly visits and has corrected most of the small issues I've had with the car. Highly recommended. Gloss is crazy. Here are some pictures...

Yeah, there are many types of paint coating solutions out there. I had my previous ride coated with PPS and it costed less than $900. It was ok but you need to send in for maintenance every 6-12 months.

The market has so many types of coatings nowadays, from silica to nano coat and it could be as cheap as 500 to above 4000 for a branded one.

What attracted me to optimum detailing was the rave overseas reviews it garnered. It's coating thickness is supposedly highest in the industry, durability and a 10 year warranty offered by the vendor on peeling, discoloration etc.

There is a vendor in the BMW Malaysia forums operating for a shop at Kota damansara called detailien, that's optimum detailing's official agent in Malaysia. You can read more about them in the BMW forums. Pretty impressive stuff.

Did mine @ gzox. Very satisfied with the results. It's good to invest in a high powered water jet coz its important to blast away the sand and grime before shampooing the car...

Had the coating on for about one month now, so far, has been quite satisfied.

If you are someone who likes to wash your own car, you will appreciate how dirt and grime can be easily hosed off, water beads off the car with ease and a quick wipe gives it a high gloss shine.

The coating forms a protective layer that's scratch resistant (but not scratch proof). After 3 washes so far, the body's been swirl free.

The windscreen coating was a disappointment tho'. It didn't bead rain drops as easily as claimed.

For those who wants to protect the car paint from the elements and maintain that shiny showroom look for years to come, here's another offer for you guys.

Optimum detailing uses a hard resin coat which forms a protective layer over your car paint. Read more about it here www.optiautodetail.com
