DuraGloss 101 and 105

Just got the chance to give the Evo a detail this saturday/sunday. Ive got the DuraGloss team 101/105 and was eager to try it on my car.

Did the DG 101 first with the PC and blue pad, then the DG 105 with the white pad, the 105 i could do by hand, but wanted to try applying it with the PC, the car has litle/no plastic trim, so its a easy task with the PC, and no masking was needed.

The DG 101 gave the biggest WOW, after removing it, it realy gives a wet look to the paint.

The DG 105 didnt give any difference to the gloss on the car after applyng it, but i didnt apply it regarding gloss, but durability. easy on and easy off.

But all in all, the DuraGloss products is Great products, gives good gloss, easy to use and (yet to see) they say i will last looooong time.







So the car can survive this:



Ohhh i look forward to the summer.

Truls..nice job on the Red..my truck is red..and the DG really brings the red out...

The paint is really sticking out...you did a nice job...

Here is a little hint....useing a pc to do the 101 is fine..it gets the cleaners pumping to clean the paint...but when it comes to doing the 105..your best bet is doing by hand....the pc and the mild cleaners in 105 may put them in action and clean off some of the 101...but by just rubbing it in gently by hand..the cleaners just about stay dormant..so it leaves the under product alone...you see what I am getting at...

I spray a lite mist of either FC&S or AW on the applicator pad...just to prime her..then add a small amount of 105 on it...I move in straight lines till I feel the pad needs more...I use a 1/2 oz doing my truck this way...it will spread a long ways once the pad primes up..I use a polishing pal...best money spent..

Polymer/wax formula it says at AG. I would call it a sealer, but Al or Sparkie is the ones to ask when it comes to DuraGloss products.

It has some cleaners and have great protection. use it after the DG 101 or DG 601 bonding agent to get the maximum protection. Also, the DG 101 was AWESOME, wet look it says, wet look it is...................

No the pads didnt turn red, but i was woundering about that. Does that mean that i have no clear coat if the pad turns red?

No i didnt, but i noticed myself that they was looking brighter red than before, must be the P21s wheel cleaner, got no other explanation, it cleans well (if u use it regulary)
