I just got a bottle of 111 and am curious about something... I was under the impression that the product was a 100% synthetic polymer sealer (basically no cleaning/correction- that's why we choose 105 if we want those abilities, right?). But on the 111 box it states that it "removes fine scratches, tree sap, bugs and tar". What's going on here?

I'll just re-state some information that has
been relayed over the years by Duragloss'
"parent company"...Brother's Research:

•Out of DG #s 105, 501, 111:
-DG #111 has the least amount of "cleaners"
-followed by DG #105 having more "cleaners"
-then DG #501 having the most "cleaners"

•But...what answers do we have to these questions?:
-How does DG/Brothers classify their "cleaners"?
-Are they polishing agents (as their MSDSs allude to)?
-What exactly are "polishing agents"?
-What role, (if any), does aliphatic hydrocarbons and
Naptha have in "cleaning": fine scratches, bugs, tar,
tree sap, etc.?

I'd consider it a pure sealant.
In my opinion, the wonderful Duragloss products could use better and more clear labeling/marketing.

In my use of DG 111, I've never seen any corrective abilities.
While I don't doubt that the solvents in many sealants or waxes can remove tar, etc, I think it's the typical marketing stuff geared toward the non-autopian/autogeek crowd.

Light cleaners probably. It's likely any fine scratches will be concealed by the polymers.

Will DG 111/601 stain trim?

None of the DG LSP's/AIO's that I've used, including 501, stain trim. At least that's been my experience.
