Duragloss 522/951 mix

[netspec]

Has anyone tried the DG 522 (Marine/RV QD) and 951 (Aquawax) mix? I mixed up a batch Friday and got a chance to use it today on my GF car.

I did a DP 4in1 waterless wash then finished up with The DG 522/951 mix. All I can say is: IT"S FANTASTIC! Give this mix a try when you get the opportunity!

Thanks for the tip.

I have tried it, and it is a nice follow-up combo. What .oz ratio did you use?

I have been using the Mix for over a year now...I first started using AW with Fast Clean and Shine....then I tried the Marine Detailer this past spring and did the mix....

my mix ratio is ...with the DG Spray bottle I use 3-4 oz of AW to rest either FC&S or Marine Detailer....

I have some 12oz spray bottles and I mix 2oz to 10 of the QD's...that works good for me....AW has NO cleaners so I do not want to dilute the QD to much for the cleaning properties..

This mix gives does a fine job as a quick clean up and leaves a super slick finish and great Gloss....

Remember..the cleaner will not compromise a durable sealant..BUT may interfere with a wax to a point....

Do you have to buff it off or just wipe it on and move on to the next panel?

Hi Al, someone on this site reccomended a 70/30 mix. Is this too much AW?

I mixed 5 quarts of the stuff so it actually ended up 112 oz. of 522 (70%) to 48 oz. of 951 (30%).

I normally do a sealer on day 1 and my wax day 2 My sealer/wax combo for winter is Collinite 845/NXT paste. The rest of the year NXT paste/Pinnacle Liquid. I use Pinnacle Spray after washes.

Well...it depends on the person....I use the Mix as a cleaner with some extra bling to it....if I dilute to much I see I have a harder time getting some contaminants off the paint....so I came to this mix as a good cleaner and some added protection....

Like any cleaner type QD..the more you dilute it less cleaning power....

example....when I was trying to find the right mix...I did a 30% AW mix....and when I sprayed a bird bomb is was still sorta solid...when I reduced the mix to the current mix i have (as above) the bird bombs started to break down...and disolve....thats what I wanted...and the finish left behind was sorta like a AW finish....slick and glossy and very water repellant....so thats what I stuck to...

it does great at cleaning glass and also acting like a rain repeller like straight AW does...


this mix does like AW in the rain..the paint just self dries while driving...it just flys off the paint....
