| | | What DP products do you use??
I was just letting my mind wander as I read over some posts here and I was thinking to myself that DP IMO is one of the most under-rated and under-utilised detailing product lines out there. It seems outside of the Autogeek forums there is little talk of this brand. However, each DP product I've tried has been better than the last. Here's what I've use so far . . .
DP Premium Surface Shield - a great sealant which is very durable and leaves a wet, reflective finish but is a little softer looking than most other sealants.
DP Max Wax - What can I say about Max Wax? It's a REALLY great wax which deepens dark colors gives nice depth of reflection and makes paint look liquid. It's got pretty decent durability for what I would call a "beauty" wax too.
DP Polishing Pad Rejuvinator - A great product to use for cleaning polishing pads. Better for use in a detail shop or when a lot of pads are used. For smaller volume pad cleaning I've switched to the XMT pad cleaner.
DP Gel Wheel Cleaner - A powerful yet safe wheel cleaner which works equally well at cleaning tires. Unlike other gel wheel cleaners this one sprays out evenly not clumpy.
DP Gloss Tire Gel - A long lasting tire gel which gives a shine in between that of Meguiar's Endurance and Meguiar's Endurance High Gloss.
DP High Performance Glass Restorer - An easy to use glass polish which quickly removes water spots and other glass imperfections leaving crystal clear glass.
DP Auto Bath - A better than average car wash soap. However, IMO it is still not in the league of Poorboy's SS&S or Optimum Car Wash (new formula).
DP Spray Surface Sealant - I've only been using this on my wheels so far. However, I've found that it's very easy to work with and has good durability. It does leave more of a plastic-y sealant look than the DP Premium Surface Shield.
DP Interior Surface Protectant - Awesome product!! Leaves a look similar to Meguiar's Interior Quick Detailer. My interior looks new after application not glossy, not even matte really, just new. My only complaint is that I often get a blotchy finish a day after application which just requires the surface to be re-buffed to correct.
So, what have you used???  |

| | | I really like DP products myself. Oops, you missed DP Wheel Glaze. That's another great product, best in it's class.
I also love DP Xtreme foam formula.

| | | I realized just the other day, that I use quite a bit of DP as of late. The new Shield Shine, Wheel Gel Cleaner, Tire Protectant, Wheel Glaze, and Max Wax are some of my favs and should not be mixed. Oops ... Exterior Cleaner also. |

| | | I use the DP 4-in-1. Use it as a rinseless wash and also as a QD.
DP Krystal Vision, love it. Use it on home windows too.

| | Same here, DP is becoming my go-to brand. I guess because I can't afford Pinnacle or Wolfgang. |

| | | DP Glass Restorer - only product of that line I have, but sadly have to say I wasn't impressed. It didn't do anything for my waterspots on any of our vehicles even on a 4" cutting pad. I know others said the same. It did work on fresher spots, but so did any other normal QD'er. AIO worked tons better.
The one product I want to try though is DP Wheel Cleaner, and maybe the tire gel as the pics showed it to look great.
