My two favorite companies working together... Thanks for your hard work, and amazing products! You've changed how I look at car detailing. 🙏🔥

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.

Both of you were very relaxed, Yvan took off his coat! I will add a few more products to my selection soon.

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 again boys, I have all the products. Love them all.

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.... ;)

Do you have to rinse power clean away or can you onr it away from paintwork?

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 :)

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.

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?

@Pat21617 5 жыл бұрын

The Rag Company thanks for replying. The “little bit” cleared things up for me. Thanks

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.
