Revisiting this video- even if you’re not using the optimum line, keeping it simple like this isn’t as sexy but it’s much better imo. For business or the weekend warrior. It’s easy to want to try every single product and have shelves lined with twice used products. Buy this stuff, a bucket, a rinseless sponge, and a small vacuum and you can detail your own car very welll or make some money.
My two favorite companies working together... Thanks for your hard work, and amazing products! You've changed how I look at car detailing. 🙏🔥
Both of you were very relaxed, Yvan took off his coat! I will add a few more products to my selection soon.
I just started using Opti Seal on glass and I love it ! Just remember to to buff right away
Wow I knew a lot about ONR but I didn't know that OptiSeal is that versatile as well! Deff. A must but for me to minimize my products!
Good video to introduce the beginner or novice to Optimum and TRC products without busting the wallet, and the ease to wah your car with these products.
2 Questions: How does ONR and associate Optimum products work on a surface where the clear coat has completely gone?
Are there any special tricks or techniques to use on this type of surface?
Thanks Guys! Looking forward to 'my' Wash Wednesday with Optimum Products. Car has to look good before I go out and about. I do like Opti - Seal. The roof of our truck is semi hard work (short person) so when I miss a wash I know it's up there buying me a minute.... ;)
these details are so interesting, keep them coming Levi
Thanks again boys, I have all the products. Love them all.
The dilution ratio for windshield washer, is it 256:1 as well! Just bought ONR and about to try it for washing, quick detailer, clay lube and etc! Viewer from the Philippines! Thanks!
Such a great video. Surprised I didn't see it sooner!
Great show! Quick question. I recall Yvan saying once never use a bug scrubber on a car. Is this for all non Rag company bug scrubbers? thanks. Love all the Products from Opti-care and Rag company. Keep the shows coming!
Is it available in india any distributor or supplier
Only complaint I have with Optimum, and Rag Company for that matter, is that it is really hard to get it here in Baltic States.. At least I have not found anything who would import them :(
Of course, there are online options, but most of time - shipping is not nice :(
Ok, I am lazy and cheap :)
I hope, one day those two will be available here :)
Brush looks superb. Where I can find this?
Wow!That's a fantastic Travel kit........Mat Moreman should have taken that to the mountains! Maybe he'll pick up on it and sell it as a kit!!!!!
edgeless vs pearl. what's the difference in applications?
Do you have to rinse power clean away or can you onr it away from paintwork?
Where can I buy Yvan's Optimum bow tie ?
Correct, I have them custom made
Hello. I'm wondering, can I dilute ONR with water and stor it for a few days or weeks? Like, make 20L, tap 10L in a bucket to wash my car and stor the rest of the finish deluded ONR to next wash.
I wanna know this too
You can
All good!
Does “synergy “ mean I can spray Power Clean on bugs, then remove with the bug sponge soaked in ONR and rinse the sponge in my ONR bucket and the Power Clean will not contaminate the bucket-o-ONR?
The Rag Company thanks for replying. The “little bit” cleared things up for me. Thanks
Awesome
Guys how do I become a Optimum service provider?
Lol, The Bugs will Fly off the vehicle by themselves. Power clean and Rag Company Jersey Bug Scrubber. 🤩
So Power Clean is 5:1 not 3:1?
Yes
Just need a bucket
Power clean dilution is 5:1 now as official word from Optimum? Not 3:1?
Depends on the soiling level
Glazed donut interior lol!
Did someone else notice the DETALKS sign move to the left revealing something that Yvan hides again? :D
Try going fast-forward to notice the sign move. Yeah, I know! Why am I looking at these kind of things? :D
The Rag Company You sneaky....! 😂
what the heck does 256:1 even mean 1:37
256 parts water to 1 part chemical. Essentially 1oz per gallon of water.
Any ida certified Indian detailer willing to learn and apply it in India
ok, I like ONR, but you guys make it sound as if it was holy water
They are selling the stuff 😅
Please let Yvan talk, 90% of the time he says "yea, absolutely, exactly". Rest of the show is "I use this ......" Why interview the guy, when he don't get to talk about his products? You have some great topics and themes for your videos, but these detalks with yvin is hard to listen to. All the ways you use onr, talk about it on your podcast.
wow the guy with the hat doesnt shut up loves to hear himself talk when i want to hear the other guy talk about his product. so anoying
