Like you say- it’s awesome for glass. What ratios have you tried/liked? I haven’t strayed from the defaults listed on the bottle yet.
I have the same RW + D114 that you have. I've actually yet to use the GG as a RW, LOL. I mixed at 15:1 and that is how I first noticed how well it did with glass. Then went to 128:1 which is great at dust but a little light for stuck on junk (still got it clean).
Currently trying 64:1 but might be heavy for regular use. Still trying them out.
Uber also works well at 128:1 on glass but tends to attract some dust. The GG seems to be quite good in this area.

Sonax polishes blow me away. I've been using their cut and finish as a one step and it's great, don't need a lot either.

The "mouse" brush for leather. Simply amazing for textured surfaces. Use APC for deep or nasty cleaning. Or go with Opticlean for clean and protect in one step.
Very light pressure is all that is needed.

I haven’t heard much about Opti Clean on here. I had to look it up to see if it was a new product.
It’s got a good price per gallon, I might have to pick some up.

I've been on here for just about 6 years and I've always bought Optimum Power Clean aka Alien Kleen because it flat out works, period. The ratio of 1 part Alien Kleen and 3 parts water is usually more than enough for most jobs, 1:2 for stronger ones but that's it.
GREAT product

I just bought 1 the other day.
I haven’t used it yet, but I might try it today on my own car since I just vacuumed it a couple days ago.

As of today, HD speed. Really did live up to the hype. Easy on, easy off, no dusting, and finishes down crazy well
One day I’ll get some dr colorchip and touch up all the chips around the car

Very thankful for the little tidbits I pick up from you in various threads.

Which wheel brush did you get? I'm looking to go down that route as well, not that big a fan of these applicators.
