Default Opti-coat Pro Plus or Ceramic Pro

I am considering protecting my paint with either Opti-coat Pro Plus or Ceramic Pro 9H. Just curious if anyone has an opinion as to which one is better? And if anyone knows a good place to get this done in the Bay Area?

Thanks,
Daniel

Modesta BC-03 is another contender in the paint protection world. There's always new and better products being sold. Here a link from March 2015.

So initially, I was interested in Opt-coat Pro and called around several detailers for pricing and information. Raymond at Spider Auto Glass recommended Ceramic Pro 9H instead, so I came by for a demonstration. He took the time to demonstrate Ceramic Pro 9H and all of the benefits. I ended up getting the Gold Package which includes 4 layers of Ceramic Pro 9H on the paint, rims & windows (lifetime warranty included). I couldn't be more happy with the results! The guys at Spider Auto Glass are very professional and take great pride in everything they do. I will definitely be bringing all of my future new cars to them for the paint protection.

For me, it was mostly to prevent the swirl marks that are very visible on black paint after a few washes.

Here is more info:
