the website lists all these metals that wet paint can be used on, but it doesnt say stainless-steel.
anyone here try it on stainless-steel?
i need to polish my muffler, and possibilly the entire piping

 

I don't know how good a job it would do but try a spot to see. I would use a polish specific to metal in this case.

 

any one have pics of what it looks like on satin silver.?

 

Rick: Wet Paint or Opti Seal? I've never used either, but have both marked down to try. The Opti Seal is from your "Time to strip it down" thread. I plan to show the tc in another year or so ..... after some mods. Right now it's begging for Claybar and I need to figure out what to put on after that.

 

Opti Seal is only usedafter a perfectly prepared surface has been accomplished by machine polishing for hours. It has zero correction ability and simply"locks in" what is beneath it.Unless you're planning on that kind of prep to the surface forget about it.

I would clay & go with WP until you are ready to get a buffer/polisher.

 

You make it sound so simple ..... but thanks for the answer!!!

 

Let's put it this way......if you are satisfied with the way your paint looks now (when clean) then go for the Opti Seal. It is expensive and has a learning curve but it's not a steep one. Just remember that any swirls or marks will show the same as before.

 

So clay, wet paint for 2 coats every 2 months and next year I do the Optiseal?

 

You can use the Optiseal anytime you want to.

 

I mean that I'll use it after a year of Wet Paint so the finish is where I want it since you said that it will lock in any imperfections ...... also, I'm waiting for it to warm up a bit to get the paint fixed where the previous owner touched it up. I might just get a ground effects kit because both bumpers have paint damage and the front has a license plate hole. I'm not sure yet, but the car needs clay. I'm slowly getting this car up to my maintenance specs ..... I sense a large order of Royal Purple products in my future ..... RP Oil, tranny fluid and Purple Ice. ..... I'll probably flush the rad and go with Peak yellow lifetime coolant again.

..... MMO, flush, Seafoam ...... ditching the first of 2 catalytic converters.
