Car Like a Mirror, Opticoat after washing, no wax/sealant, a few pics

After quick rinse of car with soapy water 2 weeks after opticoat...
No wax or sealant is on car.

The day my car was opticoated was cloudy so pics were not as impressive.

that's pretty impressive. did you take any pictures of the whole car instead of just up close pictures? how much did the opticoat cost you?

It was pretty cloudy the day the car was opticoated and also fairly close to sunset but here are some full car pics from that day...

from what i've read about the product, it works on clearbras. I'm still trying to get more info about the product prior to giving it a shot, as it is "permanent". From what I've read the only way to get rid of it is to polish it off.
