I used #40 for the first time in my fiances Accord and I like it. I get it locally which is a plus. Comes out to be a lil cheaper then OPP, there is a place on the net that sells Optimum products for good price and their shipping is very reasonable. I am still torn on tryin OPP. So many products so lil money

If you like #40, then why change? If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

FWIW dressing the interior makes subsequent cleanings more difficult-I get streaks and blotches that I never got before. I've just quit with interior dressings all together these days.

I don't think sal's saying that #40 is broken but he's just curious about trying something new. Sure we could stick with something that's tried and proven but what if, just IF, there is something better out there that you just so happen to like more than your go-to dressing?

Everyone has their own different take on detailing and some of us, such as myself, are always striving to find the best product for every application/situation. I've found that if I stick with water-based dressings for my interior, my subsequent cleanings are no different than not dressing my interior. Just my personal experience.

I love the nice leather scent of OPP. It is my new favorite interior cleaner/protectant. It leaves a nice matte finish and none of the glossy, oily look.

Every dressing I've used on interiors has been water based. I get this streaking with Natural Look, OPP, etc. It seems to be worse on some interiors than others.

I really don't take pictures, and if I did, with my camera skills I doubt I'd be able to photograph it.

If you want me to give you more details about it, I will be more than happy, but I don't want to make this a thread jack.
