Tesla Model S Opti-Coat Pro Detail
PERMANENT PROTECTION
For these two Tesla Model S’, Opti-Coat Pro was the only choice. Tesla’s are notorious for having extremely thin clear coats which, over time, wear down. For a car that many buyers plan on keeping for years to come, that is a major problem. Opti-Coat Pro provides a protective layer 2 microns thick. That’s about 100x thicker than any wax or sealant on the market. With Long Island’s harsh winters ahead, the owner wanted to protect his investments. Both cars, white and silver, got the same treatment. A full service detail, paint correction, and Opti-Coat Pro application.
I started with the Silver Model S. First I pre-rinsed and decontaminated with Iron-X to remove all embedded particles. Then I washed with the 2 bucket method and then finally began the claying process. These precautions were taken to make sure nothing was left in the paint before beginning correction.
The red substance you see is the Iron-X dissolving iron particles embedded in the wheels.
I was pressed for some on both cars so I took very little before photos. The first photo is an after shot of the black trim surrounding the panoramic roof.
After I made sure that every single panel was flawless. I can finally begin the coating process. Opti-Coat Pro is permanent and very durable. Preparation steps are very important. We do not want to permanently seal in scratches, scuffs, or swirls.
After Opti-Coat Pro had been applied and cured, I went around the vehicle and dressed all trim and rubber surfaces. The dressing used for this application was waterproof and will provide a nice sheen on all plastic and rubber surfaces for weeks to come.
After completing the Silver Tesla Model S, I went home and got prepared to tackle the white one. Processes were pretty much the same across both vehicles. Rinse, decontaminate with Iron-X, hand wash, clay bar, then paint correction.
On both Tesla’s, I applied Opti-Coat Pro to the wheels. This really helps with the maintenance. Brake dust comes off much more easily and it can save a lot of time from scrubbing and rubbing against the wheels surface.
