I had mine opti coated by Scott at Superior Shine, man this guy knows a lot of technical stuff about different paint protection products lol, i can highly recommend him! http://www.superiorshine.com.au/paint-protection.html

A family friend picks up hes 86 in a week or so and hes getting hes opti coated straight away too.

I did a bit of research before i bought the car and wasnt prepared to get stung by the dealer crap again and i have read nothing but good stuff about opti coat so i have no doubt it will do what its meant too!

How much?

I'd say it would be best if you contacted him, i had alloys and fabric protected also and my friend also booked theirs in to have it done once they get it.

Anything has to be cheaper and better then the dealers crap, i wasn't worried about saving a few bucks, just wanted a product that actually works.

Just tell 'em the price son. Just tell 'em the price!

You can't go wrong with Scott either. Amongst us two mobile detailers we have applied more Opti Coat in Sydney than anyone else.

We will match any quoted package price given that the quote includes all steps necessary to do a proper job. The satisfaction of a good job remains long after the price has been forgotten!

Eurogloss prestige. One of Australia's top detailers, and VERY experienced with Opti-Guard (pro Opti-Coat).

He's also very expensive. About twice as much as other quotes I have.

brz-vic · 06-28-2012, 10:44 PM

Twice as expensive as the other Opti-coat providers? Can you post the quotes, and maybe compare with Franks prices?

Platinum paint protection: $495 (Includes paint correction and swirl removal)
-Interior protection: $170

Euroglass Prestige: $550 for Opti-Guard alone no paint correction just clay and one coating
-$1100 two Coats are applied instead of one to all surface areas including windows, paint correction is included

Immaculate reflections: $500 Opti-Guard application, this includes application to the paint, wheels, calipers, windows, exhaust tips, and lights also includes the warranty.
-$250 max for paint correction
-$80 for leather/fabric protection

These are the 3 approved detailers on the Opti-Guard website.

As Type R mentioned already, I would only be able to recommend Eurogloss. I know he is more expensive but he is a psycho perfectionist.

Or with the cash that you save drive up to Sydney and I'll do it for you

If you guys are so strung up about saving a few bucks on the application have you also thought about finding out how much each applicator is charging for the annual service(inspection) to maintain the lifetime warranty, your cheapest option may end up being the most expensive in the long run.

I just wanted a good job done regardless of cost and i've seen superior shines work on other forums and he's definitely been around, the guys done more opticoats in 2 years then i could imagine and works on some seriously nice cars and does all the cars at the motor show so i was more then willing to let me him touch my 86 over the stealership. lol
