Which one my car's should I opticoat?
My wife and I have a car each...mine's the 86 of course and her's is a CRV. I'll be paying a professional detailer for the opticoat job, and as much as I'd love to opticoat both cars, at the moment I can only afford to do one.
With both of us having full time jobs and juggling time with kids and activities, I don't usually have much time to wash and detail both cars by myself. No doubt the 86 would be getting more attention whenever possible (i.e. I'll wash it myself), and I feel that the CRV will likely be neglected a little, and when it's filthy I'll just pay someone to wash-n-vac it. My problem is...which one should I spend the money to opticoat? Should I protect the paint on the vehicle which gets more personal attention at home, or should I protect the paint on the vehicle which may not see as many washes? (By the way, I use a 3-bucket-method whenever I wash a car and usually take at least 3-4 hrs making sure I don't miss an inch and not induce any swirls.) |

Opticoat the 86. Subaru doesn't have the most durable paint and youre much more likely to take the CRV through a car wash if it gets super dirty. Besides the main car for the kids tends to take the most damage regardless of what you do to protect it. lol |
