opti coat on a stinger stripe
Permanent protection in a syringe!
Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 Permanent Paint Coating 1. wipe down stripe with ISP (50/50 alcohol/water) 2. put 5-7 drops on stripe - work in with the sponge they give you - side to side - up down 3. wait 3-5 min for it to flash (evap) and use a MF to buff off the apply marks - buff a bit... 4. Done - did the front vent too: |

Glen-
Does this eliminate the "ridge" where the edge of the vinyl stripe meets the painted hood?

If it were just that simple Glen!
Did you install the stipe yourself or was it done by the dealer?
