    Is Duragloss #111 considered the pre-wax cleaner?

    before I apply my sealant so that it has a clean surface to bond to and I want to remove some very light marring and I don't want to remove any paint.

    No, 111 is a sealant. 601 Polish Bonding Agent is the pre-"wax" cleaner in the DG line.

    I don't know I will never buy another duragloss product because of the stupid naming they use. Calling their waxes "polish".... Come on, what is wrong with them?

    I believe a lot of those formulas were developed in the 70's. I imagine the bulk of their sales aren't from the types who are on forums.

    However, it would probably help them to merge with modern, universally professional terminology.

    Personally I couldn't care less what they call the product, as long as the performance claims match the description on the bottle. It's going to take me more than an outdated heading to keep me from using their stuff.

    Both 101 and 111 are sealants, but also contain chemical (non-abrasive) cleaners. Of their cleaner waxes / sealants I always preferred 501. It's made for boats, but is excellent on auto paint too. It's a great cleaner. Apply with a white pad on a DA and you won't believe how dirty the pad will get.

    Whoa Nellie!!

    The only Wax in Duragloss’ product
    line-up, that I know of, is the one that’s
    shown below—#104—and it sure isn’t
    called a polish!

    101 and 105 contain polymer sealants and non-abrasive cleaners. 111 is just a polymer sealant with no cleaners as far as the Duragloss website is concerned.

    I don't think so I'm pretty sure even 30 years ago a wax was a wax and polish was a polish.

    It was certainly common for anything you wiped on your car (or furniture) that was intended to make it shine to be called a "polish". Heck, Zaino calls their sealants "polish" (hmmm...what an odd coincidence), and even Pledge was a "furniture polish". Pledge now seems to call theirs a "furniture spray" but what do you figure the cut was on the Meguiar's 1-10 scale back when they called it a "polish"?

    Speaking of Meguiar's, how can they call #7 Show Car "Polish", when it's non-abrasive?
