[QUOTE="KrisMas, post: 1064403846, member: 61607"] Not sure about OHP, but I have used Opt Polish II & Opt Finishing Polish. The MUP's cut is somewhere in the middle of the two and can finish as good as OFP. Though, on a DA, the difference won't be much. All polishes would have one form of 'oil'/lubricant or another to prevent it against drying during polishing and scouring the paint. These 'oil' *could* slightly interfere with the bonding of the sealant/wax. For an enthusiast (i.e. those crazy hobbyist) this could make a world of a difference, but under normal circumstances, you won't be able to notice it until you've tried it a few times. Some general tall tale signs would be like wax/sealant takes longer to dry, more prone to streaking/clouding when buffing off, surface is silky smooth even without wax/sealant applied, etc. Again, I do not have much experience with OHP, but even with Opti Seal/OCWax after OP II or OFP, I do noticed some differences during application and also performance if I were to do a wipedown with panel wipe (be it a wash-down, IPA wipe or with any other solvent). So, lets just say that there's really no 'NEED' to clean the surface but, if you're OCD enough, it would be wise to do it if you have the time. Anyway, you won't really know (and not to mention difficult to describe) unless you've tried it yourself. OPC or any all purpose cleaner would do fine (some manufacturers even recommend to use dish washing liquid:hmmmm2:...but I'd rather advice to use a proper panel wipe made for car paintwork if you can get hold of any). Just remember to rinse thoroughly as almost all cleaners would utilise surfactant for cleaning purposes and these need to be rinse off as well. Isopropyl Alcohol....something like those alcohol that you use to clean cd lenses, electronic circuits, etc. [/QUOTE]
