Nardi classic steering wheel, friend visited his family in Japan and got this steering wheel for me which came off his uncles ae86. And a sunshade because tinting is overrated. Aha

Did you do this yourself? Why did you choose this over Opticoat?

Yah I did I quick job though with an applicator pad. I didn't have time to buff and polish which would have gotten most swirls out. Honestly I used it cause my bro bought it and had it laying around. It's a really good product to the point where chemical guys had to raise the price because they were short selling themselves. I can't tell you the difference between the two. All I can say is it works real well if you use it correctly. And I definitely did not use it correctly but still yielded a nice finish. Hope this helps you out!

I know you didn't ask me but I just used it also and it's amazing how well it works and it's near impossible to mess up since it's like applying wax to your car!

Jet Seal 109 lasts 8-12 months(according to Chemical Guys) depending on how the car is treated with it on. So it's a litle different from opti-coat in that since. IMO it's easier then opti-coat as you can do it yourself but you don't have to necesarilly worry about messying it up as you are basically waxing the car and letting the sealant sit for 20 minutes then buffing it off!I did my sister's honda accord sedan this past weekend and used Jet Seal 109 then their butter wet wax and the car looked brand new it's an 2005! I would highly recommend it as it is dummy proof to apply and you can still put a wax over top the sealant for even better results!

You can even put it on the windows too! When it first rains after you put it on, just watch to see how well it works! You barely have to use the windshield wipers in moderate rain as the wind just pushes the water right of the windshield since it is so slick!

Interesting... would you need a buffer for this?

I haven't searched yet, but has anyone made the "vent" an actual vent? Might be nice here in Arizona.

Nah all you need is an applicator pad and a good microfiber towel to remove it
