I have a lot of questions regarding the DG line... Do I use 601, 101, and 105 together? If so, in that order? If I use 601 before 105 (omitting 101), would it be the same as applying a sealant twice? Is the 105 better than the Optimum Poli-Seal or is it recommended to keep the product line true? In that case, would it be okay to use ONR and spray AW afterwards? Sorry for all the questions!

All you need is the #101 and #105 IMO. If you have an PC work #101 in like any other polishes, work it in until it breaks down, and then wipe off with MF. #105 put it on like a wax. #101 is a base for about any sealants. #101 is a lot like AIO.

Thanks Sparkie. The instructions on AG said that 601 should be applied prior to 105 for best results so I wasn't sure how 105 would adhere to the paint without it. I'm assuming we don't have a PC so everything would be applied by hand. I don't believe we have a leaf blower either. But you never know with men and tools... those toys just sort of multiply when we women aren't looking!

#101 is a cleaner and base. Top it with #105.
Funny, you said: But you never know with men and tools... those toys just sort of multiply when we women aren't looking!
That's what my wife says!

I would suggest the guzzler, for water removal...only need one (for now!)

I would suggest the Cobra Ultra Plush Jr ...pack of 3 or 6. Greatest MF towels I've seen or tried! THe stuff at Target is good for dashboards, wheels and glass but is not the greatest quality and may leave swirls in the paint.

I'm not familiar with the DP line but the PB Natty'e Blue is the best bang for the buck IMO.

You're a great wife!

Thanks for the clarification. I guess all wives tend to think alike!

Heeheee...thanks but I am just trying to get dh to wash my car!

I've read really great things about NB and will get it, EX and ONR for my brother's birthday in Feb. He has two black suvs that always look dirty. He probably needs a surface duster too, huh? Dh mentioned how my brother's cars always looked dirty - that is where I got the idea of a detailing kit for their birthdays. I know NB will really bring out the black but don't think it will do as much for my white cars, hence me not ordering it this round.

I was looking at the Cobra Deluxe Combo pack of towels... 2 Super Plush Deluxe and 2 Cobra Deluxe Jr for $15. Are the Deluxe Jrs the same as the Ultra Plush Jrs? I've read about Ultra plush a lot but only see the Super Plush and Deluxe for sale. Another vote for the guzzler makes it a must have! I wish I had gotten a larger gift certificate now!
