Exclamation Review day one, Duragloss #271

1. Clean and dry the surface to be treated. (I did)
2. Apply liberally with soft cloth. (I did with a sponge)
3. Allow to dry. (I did)
4 Buff with a soft cloth for added gloss. (I Buff with an old cheap MF, works better with MF then terry cloth) Boy did it ever gloss up.


This was applied to plastic, rubber and black paint.

When I apply it for the first time it was nothing like other dressing. It streaks and just plane look weird. I let it dry, and buff off with MF. The harder I buff the glosser it got. I was impressed. Now will it run in the rain, I will let you know?
Duragloss Rubber & Flat Black Dressing (RBD) #271
Enhance and restore flat black trim and bumpers!

Duragloss Rubber & Flat Black Dressing contains a blend of polymeric synthetic polymers in a solvent base. RBD #271 cleans and shines rubber bumpers and moldings, and is recommended for flat black surfaces.

Duragloss Rubber & Flat Black Dressing is a low luster silicone dressing for flat black automotive surfaces, such as the bumpers and moldings. Its solvent base lifts old dressings in order for the silicone polymers to bond better with the rubber. Once applied, Duragloss Rubber & Flat Black Dressing enhances the dark color and restores the like-new luster to these surfaces.

Duragloss Rubber & Flat Black Dressing is water-resistant and will not wash off in the rain once cured. The finish is a low-gloss sheen that complements the paint, rather than overpowering it.

Duragloss Rubber & Flat Black Dressing is a great way to enhance the most weather worn parts of your vehicle. Dark rubber bumpers and moldings are often neglected and tend to fade quickly due to UV exposure. Duragloss Rubber & Flat Black Dressing restores the lost color with long-lasting, waterproof polymers.

Instantly restore the color and like-new luster of faded rubber bumpers and flat black moldings with Duragloss Rubber & Flat Black Dressing.

sparkie, your turning into Duragloss. I like the look of the Duragloss Rubber & Flat Black Dressing on the plasic. I'm going to have to get some on next next order for my Ford Truck with the missing wheels. If I saw this post before I placed an order last night I would have picked some up.

Yes it does have UV protectors...I was told all sealants and Trim and tire products and shampoo have UV inhibitors in it....

Try a magic eraser and some #271 on a area where you have wax stains...it may remove it since it does have some solvents in it...

This product works great on all rubber seals and window rubbers ..rubber bumper steps on the step and tow bumpers...black plastic trim...

I use it under the hood also...on hoses..plastic engine trim..and any other plastic under the hood...really lasts....use a foam pad and let sit a few and wipe down..just like Sparkie did....#271 and 201 are my plastic and rubber coatings...no rain streaks or wash off...

Going to try the Marine protectant #531 this year..I heard it works great...DG said it is very durable and concentrated..made for salt water abuse and the elements in 24/7 exposure....

A polymetric sunscreen formula designed to restore the lustre and water resistance to vinyl and rubber. A non-oily treatment which dries to a clear, durable coating will not crack or discolor.
