    I use this awesome spray wax along with the Double Twistress, for the drying process of my ONR wash, then top it with Bead Maker for that "overkill" gloss/slick/armored experience! Thank you for the video, guys!

    After I wash a customers car I almost always dry off the car with this spray wax. If the car isn’t coated. Alittle goes along way. Adds some serious shine and some extra protection.

    This question may have been answered elsewhere on this post below, but I want to know if I can "layer" the Opti-Wax OVER Opti-Seal? I always finish up my maintenance wash with a final mist (as the car is still wet) with Opti-Seal and use the Opti-Seal as my drying agent and lubrication agent for my microfiber I use for drying. Works incredibly well and it gives an incredible shine and protected finish. Where I want to tie in the Opti-Wax product is for a little more protection and that warmer "glow" I guess that wax seems to impart on a vehicle over the synthetic products even though the wax itself my be synthetic wax? Either way, wax even with some carnauba content seems to work great in giving the old school appearance of a "just waxed" car along with the feeling of slickness when you run your hand across the panel (which isn't real smart since it may impart these pesky marks we have been talking about for the past 10-15 years now! Everything about modern detailing comes down to basically once common denominator in the entire equation with that denominator being----self inflicted swirls, marks, and scratches that using all the learned techniques and products (PROPERLY) may aide in reducing. Always a good thing........less marks. But me personally love the old school WAX look and feeling. I want to stick with ONE brand of detailing products because, frankly, it's just got WAY to crazy with all the amounts of products available out there. It's NUTS! You could either buy a house, and buy 10,000 detailing products from 40 different companies. I'll stick with Optimum Polymer Technologies as these boys (And Dr David G) seem like they truly know what they are doing. OK..............BOTTOM LINE................Can you layer Optimum Spray Wax over Opti-Seal or even one better, can you Opti-Coat, then Opti-Seal, and finally finish off with Opti-Spray Wax? That would be the route I take. Heavy coating, less heavy coating, and final wax wipe down. Can it be done that way...........A-OK? or No way? Please say..........

      Good question an answer would help, I too am very tired of multiple products from multiple manufactures, I do not have time to play with getting answers watching videos and not getting all the info needed but getting useless banter, I just recently got the tire dressing and some onr so far so good, but I have some questions optimum has a forum but you may wait days before a response I need absolute answers much quicker.

      I like to get a base of Opti-Seal, Hyper Seal, or Gloss Coat. From there I will sometimes use Car Wax over them.
      My washes are either ONR, ONR wash & wax, or a hybrid where I power wash heavier filth before my ONR wash. They all seem to hold up great. Even better when I polish with Hyper Polish before hand.
      The Instant Detailer from Optimum is great too. Super slick, and really glossy.
      I'm like you, and prefer to reduce the amount of systems on my shelf.
      Right now I'm selling off so much product, but I do this for income, so it will get used up. Optimum, Meguiar's, Jescar, and CarPro are sticking around. Not because I need them, but because I genuinely enjoy using them from time to time.
      If I had to pick just one, it would be Optimum.

    I am using ONR and as a drying aid I tried Instant Detailer & Gloss on a car and Car Wax on another car but in both cases the cars were full of dust after a few hours because the body attracts it. In drying I used 1500 twisted by TheRag and Everest by TheRag. Is this dust problem the consequence of my application error or is it a problem already encountered?
