Duragloss #101 and #105

[Truls]

The 101 is a more heavy cleaner than the 105, but both are AIOs, personaly i prefer the 101 as a base, and then the 105 and as LSP the 111, to make a thick barrier for the Norwegian winter/salt

as A1monky also states: 101 + Pinnacle LS....ROCKS. that is probably one of the blingest combos ive seen on a solid colour, and is my preferd summer shine. Just bost it once in awhile with the Duragloss AquaWax, Duragloss fast clean and shine or crystal Mist

BUT, you get a more lasting protection aplying the 105 over the 101, and ive also had great result with the 111 over the 105.

The DG 105 can sitt on the car til the next day or you can buff right after it has dryed. if you apply another coat of the 105, do it with a "light" hand (said above also)

Remember that the DG 105 needs 24 h to cure before aplying anything over it (wax, water, polish etc)

There is some different ways to apply many of the DG products due to AL and sparkies eager to do/try something new all the time, its hard to keep up with them. lol

In the last 4 weeks ive used 101 on 3 cars , a red car , a white car , and a teal van. I like it . Its easy to wipe on, wipe off, cleanes great , and leaves a great shine and is very slick.Have you guys notice that dirt doesent want to stick. Its been raining here for 4 days and the van doesent look to dirty. It sits outside 24/7.. The van was done 4 weeks ago and it still beads . I havent put on any 105 or AW , and it still looks great.

If you go the 501 then 105 route is there ever any need for the 601 (meaning is the 105 going to bond better to the 601 than the 501/101 and last longer)? Will 501 under 105 produce a different look than 601 under 105? Would you equate 501 with Prime Strong? What product in a different line would you equate with 601? Thanks.

Last week I spent a hour on the phone with DG..My buddy wants to get his trucks ready for winter for plow season..so I called on the fleet products..we got on the subject of the Marine line for my winter use....

I was told I could use the Marine 501 alone or If I wanted I could do the 501..wait 24 hours do the 601 and 105 on top of the 501..the 501 has salt inhibitors for Marine use...

The 501 does not have the correction abilities of Prime strong....but does have the cleaning abilities ....its a very strong cleaner and very good sealant properties according to DG since its made for being in water and water abrasion..Since 105 is a synthetic polymer and resin it has a better look...105 has depth were 501 has gloss and wetness and slickness ,...I am very Impressed with 501 on the truck now....the use of AW adds a better look to it also....

I asked about mixing AW and the Marine detailer....he said I come up with crazy mixes..but he liked the AW and FC&S mix I told I use and he tried it and liked it..but for 921 and 521 mix...he said 3-4 oz for the 22oz bottles would be tops..you will take away from the cleaning if you use any more....

the 601 can be used with any Polymer sealant also....the only other product like 601 was the old Z1 from zaino but has been discontinued I think ...

Thanks for the reply. I'll add some 501 to my next order. If 105 has the depth and 501 the gloss and wetness, what does 601 bring to the table looks wise?

601 brings nothing..its actually a catalyst to help the sealants bond and also creates a harder shell on the sealants...its a bonding agent/hardener..it is suppose to add durability to the sealants....

601 Polish Bonding Agent
Is similar to an epoxy (A&B) and bonds chemically when it comes into contact with durable polishes. Duragloss PBA will double the durability and protection of polishes when applied prior to polishing.

Now when they say polishing they mean using the 101..111 105 or 501...as they call the sealants ..polishes....

Ok, I will try #101 -> #105 -> (#111) -> #951 (AW)

Do I rinse of the car between each operation?

Actually the 111 will take away from the look of 105..111 is sorta sterile in looks..it looks like Klasse SG in a way...very glossy but a lack of deepness...and 105 will last longer than the 111....it has a wetter deeper look then 111...

Al - Thanks again for the clarification. I guess I can think of 105 and 501 as a sort of Zaino Z-5 / Z-2 PRO where they both add something different to the look of the car.
