Nice, good to know the OC works well on the DGM. I had no reason to believe otherwise, but its good to see pics, regardless.

Was this the one mentioned in the SoA thread as available in NJ? If so, nice ninja grab!

Nope. I ordered mine back on August 10th. I was the first one on their order list as the 2 previous orders were filled already.

Car looks Great~! i hope mine gets here soon!


If you enjoy wax your car often, then You don't have to do OptiCoat.
OptiCoat suits for people who don't have their time to do waxing.

I previously polish & wax and clay depends on how dirty car gets. i consider getting Opti-Coat but i decided not to.

I'm really considering getting my BRZ opti coated. Can any of you guys educate me on the benefits? Is it really worth the $300 to get your car OC'd than to say pay $100 every other year to get it professionally detailed? :thanks:

It's a permanent coating so that you don't have to wax your car. It doesn't allow dirt to stick to it as easily and water just sheets off it. Cleaning it is just like normal, wash/rinse and clay bar if you want. If you don't want to spend money every year to get the car detailed, take the time to learn how to do it yourself. It's not hard, but it does take a lot of time and attention to detail.

Does it add much in the way of durability regarding nicks and chips?

Not really meant for nicks/chips. That's why I'm also getting Xpel Ultimate put on this week on the hood, bumper, mirrors, and fenders.
