yosifkujioc Posted June 20, 2019 Author Share Posted June 20, 2019 So the weather cleared up a bit, this gave me a chance to try out Protectant Plus[PP] on the vinyl window frames and ONR at 1:128 on the window glass. Dusted off the dust on the frames with a fine detailing brush. Liberally sprayed PP on to a microfiber towel. Carefully applying PP on the vinyl window frame, as to not get much on the glass. The little of PP that did get on the glass, cleaned up easily with ONR. PP cleaned up the vinyl window frames well, restored the white color; a very nice bright white color and left a very nice satin finish. Never having a greasy feel to the touch. The vinyl widow frames looked great, like new Sprayed ONR on to a microfiber towel, about 5 shots. Using the box method to clean the glass, then using the dry side of the microfiber towel to remove any remaining ONR, so we leave a streak free glass. ONR did a good job of cleaning the glass. Easy to apply and take off with the microfiber towel; without any streaking. ONR Wash & Shine worked really well, will try ONR Wash & Wax[ONRWW] next. Since ONRWW would add a bit of wax protection. What about using Optimum Car Wax[OCW} instead of PP on the vinyl window frames? Does OCW leave a glossy shine? Considering OCW over PP, since it would protect better than PP? Though really liked the satin finish that PP left on the vinyl window frames. What would be the recommended product when needing something stronger for cleaning? Have read that Opti-Clean and Optimum Power Clean are what most use for tougher cleaning. What is the shelf life of most Optimum products? Have read here that for the ONR's is about 3 to 4 years with the cap on in any weather condition. Like stored in a shed with no ventilation. Is this correct?

Ron@Optimum Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 curious if you're considering using any Optimum products on a car? Using Spray Wax on vinyl would provide UV protection and shine, but it has no cleaning ability. For cleaning, Power Clean is our most powerful all purpose cleaner and Opti-Clean is stronger than ONR. Shelf life on compounds/polishes is 1 - 2 years. Cleaning products have pretty indefinite shelf life regardless of conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will stick to PP then for it's cleaning properties, since they both would provide the same UV protection. After reading about Opti-Seal[OS] and seeing a few videos about it. Considering using OS on the glass. Can OS be applied over PP? Will this affect PP in any way? Since will most likely get some OS on the vinyl window frames when applying OS.

Ron@Optimum Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Opti-Seal is great on glass. I don't think it will cause any problems on PP, but have never heard of anyone testing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have read that Opti-Clean[OC] is normally used before ONR. Can OC be used as replacement for ONR? Using OC should not affect PP, OS or any other Optimum product?

Ron@Optimum Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Opti-Clean can be used as a pre-spray or as an waterless alternative to ONR. Opti-Clean will not remove or effect other Optimum products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Soap Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 I use Opti-Clean mainly as a pre-spray in the wintertime on the car, inside the car and various use inside our house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yosifkujioc Posted June 23, 2019 Author Share Posted June 23, 2019 Alright. So some of differences between ONR Wash & Wax[ONRWW] and Opti-Clean[OC] are: ONRWW, is more economical, has a bit of wax, UV protection and ? OC is a stronger cleaner, is a waterless wash and ? Fill in the question marks above, since I probably missed something. Which would provide more protection, ONRWW or OC? Thank You Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 The major difference is ONRWW is rinseless and Opti-Clean is waterless, you don't need to over think it. ONRWW has more protection because is has Wax... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yosifkujioc Posted June 23, 2019 Author Share Posted June 23, 2019 So after using Opti-Clean, it would be recommended to use a protectant; like Opti-Seal? Thank You Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron@Optimum Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 as an LSP (last step protection), yes, Opti-Seal or Spray Wax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
