    FS/FT: DG 105/601, looking for AW/101/111

    I have about 1.25 bottles worth of 105 along with .5 bottle of 601. I'm looking to get $20 shipped or trade for AW/101/111. I'm just not impressed with 105 nor 601...

    100% polyester MF waffle weave towels?

    I saw some turtle wax waffle weaves at big lots the other night and I noticed that the tag said that they were made from 100% polyester. Should this deter me from buying them? They're extremely cheap but also decently soft..

    Beading on tires= good or bad?

    I recieved some NTS7 from AG and tried it on one of my tires. Now I've never actually used a tire cleaner/protectant before so I don't really know what to expect. Anyways when I spray the tire with water, the water beads/sheets off the tire completely. When I do the same to my untreated tires...

    DG 105 less slick than DG101?!

    I was under the impression from multiple posts on this forum that 105 would be a much better product than 101 in terms of being a lsp and I'm not impressed with 105. Doing a side by side test on my car, 101 looks far better and much slicker than 105. Am I the only one experiencing this? The...

    Newbie Guide to Detailing Terms-*work in progress*

    There are tons of new people here and hopefully this can serve as a good guide to get started. There is already a detailed "detailing guide" so I probably won't make one of those. Of course being a noob myself, I will have questions and hopefully the veterans will set me straight... Just a...

    Anyone try a 105/476 combo?

    I know Duragloss themselves recommend that you leave carnauba waxes off their sealants as waxes will diminish the sealant's ability to bond with the paint. However, has anyone ever tried topping 105 with 476? I mean 105 is one of the more durable sealants and 476 is probably the most durable...

    Turtle Wax Platinum Wax Liquid impressions/mini review and a question

    So I got bored and decided to try some. Anyways, there are two things that stand out in my mind from using this product. One is the bottle design. They have included a little plastic piece on the opening which helps to restrict the amount of product coming out and it works wonderfully. All...

    What makes ONR "special"? Can't you do the same with regular shampoo?

    I like the concept of ONR but can't you do the same thing with regular car shampoo? Anyone ever try it before? I mean there are tons of quality shampoos that are slick and lubricative, why can't you use those instead of ONR?

    DG 521=101 on steroids?

    I have 2 questions about 521 and I did use search and it failed me. I know 101 is an AIO of sorts and I do like its ability to hide swirls. I remember reading on this forum that DG 521 is a stronger version of 101 at least in terms of protection and cleaning. However, does 521 retain 101's...

    How is it that paint on new cars can remain slippery under the worst of conditions?

    ??? I sealed my car about a month ago and the paint is extremely grabby. I'm sure the sealant on my car is still there as it still beads very well and it looks fantastic especially after a wash. However it just doesn't have that "slippery" feeling that my uncle's never waxed car thats ~1 year...
