Very nice work !!!! We just started using Opti Coat at my work a couple months ago and seems to be pretty popularso far, We have already done 10 or so cars i think and we haven't really even put the word out that were doing it.

Yeah I was curious about what Opti Coat is... Doesn't look like its anything like that Perma Plate snake oil garbage.
