This brand new A3 arrived with only 400km on the clock. Even as a brand new car, the paint had existing swirls which needed to be corrected before application of the new Kamikaze ISM Coat.
A new entrant to the coating market, Kamikaze ISM Coat is a sacrificial paint protection barrier that provides a warm, deep gloss that is unrivalled in the current coating market.

Hi Jerald,
The Audi with Kamikaze ISM looks great! I have a BMW 5 series (2015) in Metallic Carbon Black (aooears black or very dark blue depending on the viewing angle). The car is driven probably a couple times a month and is always garaged. Which coating would you recommend – Opticoat Pro+ or Kamikaze ISM and why?
Thanks.

Hi Jai!
Based on your usage pattern, I would definitely recommend having Kamikaze ISM applied. In my opinion, Kamikaze ISM offers better water behaviour (tighter beading) and a very unique look. Especially on Carbon Black, you’ll find that the metallic will pop even more than any other coating. As an added bonus, you can use Kamikaze Overcoat as a maintenance to spray to give your car that freshly detailed look.
If the car were a daily driver and stored outside most of the time, I’d recommend Opti-Coat Pro+ as its ceramic base offers a higher longevity than other coatings.
As it stands, ISM is rated to last 2 years with regular usage patterns (potentially more in your case) and Opti-Coat Pro+ is rated to last 5-7 years.
If you’d like any more information, don’t hesitate to reply here, e-mail us at info@affinesse.com.au or call on (03) 9551 8153.
