Re: Carpro Dlux or Perl?
Thanks for all the input everyone. Time to place an order.
One last question for those of you using Dlux, if I get any on the paint or glass, what is the best way to remove it? I know it should be done immediately, but does it wipe clean off with a MF towel?

I have had some on the glass and I wipe it off immediately with a terry cloth. I do not think I want something that durable on my MF's.

Re: Carpro Dlux or Perl?
IIRC PERL is a dressing and Dlux is a coating. Both are excellent products.
I've never used Dlux on tires but it makes a huge difference on exterior trim.
I use PERL on interior trim and tires. I use Dlux on exterior plastics and rubber trim.

PERL runs for me on trim. I only use it on tires.

I made a mess while putting it on the trim but it cleaned off the paint easily and made my trim look awesome.
For tires, it worked well enough. Im more interested in finding a dedicated product (gel application) instead of using up my bottle by diluting it 1~1.
Use it straight

Another vote for UIPG. It can be used on everything in the interior including Fabric seats, carpet, seat belts etc. The only thing I do not use it on is the clear plastic, gauges, radio display etc. I have applied it to the radio display and wiped it off with a MF which did leave a very nice display, I just did not let it cure there.

PERL is awesome on wheel well liners too. I sprayed some on two months ago and they still look clean and brand new!
I use DLUX on other trim pieces and find that it works very well.
For my tires, I prefer Optimum Opti-Bond.

I use PERL on tires and engine bays. I shoot tires with the Optimum sprayer and it is easy and fast. I use a 4:1 dilution on engine bay it works well. I have tried a couple of times on interiors but I have so many other products, I can't use them all.
