Jasol Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Hi all. I’m looking for a topper for my gloss coat. Which is best suited to this? Opti seal or hyper seal? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Joel, welcome to all things Optimum! Both Opti-Seal & Hyper Seal are excellent on Gloss-Coat. Hyper Seal is a new product specifically formulated to work with Coatings and provides more gloss/slickness and durability in my experience.

A&J Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I mean if you can get your hands on Hyper seal go for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasol Posted January 9, 2018 Author Share Posted January 9, 2018 Yeah easy to get here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A&J Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Then go for it...its suppose to be opti-seal on steroids so its a no-brainer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasol Posted January 9, 2018 Author Share Posted January 9, 2018 Ok great thanks for that. I was leaning towards opti seal as it’s abit cheaper but if hyper is better I’ll get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasol Posted January 9, 2018 Author Share Posted January 9, 2018 Can hyper seal be added 1 hour after gloss coat to protect it like you can with opti seal? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A&J Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Yes it can! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 In fact, that's Optimum's recommended method - use Hyper Seal 1 hour after coating for protection during the curing phase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Guz Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Found this in the optimum car care facebook group. So unless something has changed, I would stick with opti-seal 1 hour after gloss coat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasol Posted January 9, 2018 Author Share Posted January 9, 2018 Hmm. I wonder if that testing is done now, seeing that is over 6 months old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron@Optimum Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 I stand corrected, traditional process was to add Opti-Seal over Coatings 1 hour later. Hyper Seal being a different animal, Optimum recommends waiting 12 hours because it can effect curing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Dream Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Would Gloss Coat then OS topped with HS be a good idea or overkill? If it would all be compatible sounds like a brilliant shine would result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
