Optimum finish Polish new formula on soft paint
Got a Sample of OPT finish polish new formula to see how it works with soft paint compared to 85RD since thats my go to stuff with my super soft mustang.
So i started out with this as the before with it polished with 85RD  I used a Crimson HT low profile pad like I do with my 85RD for the test..I primed the pad the exact same way..used the machine on speed 4.5 and did 3 passes with med pressure and 2 passes with light pressure. Here is how the paint looked after the new OPT finish polish  It didnt finish out to well on soft paint. It is easy to work with. The consistency is much thicker then 85RD and its a blue color. Has no real smell and it wipes off very easy. I then went back over the same section with my 85RD with 3passes on med pressure and 1 light pass  so looks like 85RD still is king for finishing out beautifully on very soft paints.

85RD is great at giving a nice glossy finish, but I am going to replace it with Scholl Concepts S40 soon I hear it provides an even deeper finish than 85RD.
