Re: Super Wet

I'm a huge experimenter and recently tried DWG and UPGP like many others in this thread suggest.
Multiple layers of DWG, ditto with the UPGP and results on my red car are similar to the two silver ones posted, except with a distinct reddish undertone rather than the silver/gray hues. Red car - Dooh! Huge shine nonetheless, a real head turner.
A tip for prospective buyers of DWG: add a few bucks to your order with Bob and get a couple of his PHAT towels. That's an acronym for Plush, Hsomething, And Thick, and they're exactly as described. Perfect for buffing off the your lsps. They're the thickest microfibers I have and I have a few.

Thanks
I don't think DWG has a cure time, but I usually wait at least 20 minutes.

Re: Super Wet

I haven't been on the forums in a long time, but I have been using DWG for several months. I use it with Jeff's Werkstatt AJT and get a similar result on my Silver car. I may break down and try UPGP at some point.

detaildoc, your results are stunning to say the least. This might push me over the edge. How slick is the finish, and how has durability holding up for you?

Re: Super Wet

I've found waiting about 30 minutes before topping DWG with another coat or a QD. Tried it once immediately after and 425 tended to cloud a little but not after waiting a bit.

Very slick. The look with the DWG under the sealant lasts about 3-4 weeks. The UPGP alone I would say around 5-6 months for me, but application for both is so easy, that durability is not a factor for me because I can add more of either at any time.

Hi Doc, which look do you like better DWG on top of UPGP or vice versa?

Re: Super Wet

Hmm! That's a hard one, maybe the DWG as the LSP as it looks wetter.

Lol! I won't argue with you on that one . It is just an awesome product, which I think sells itself. You won't be disappointed.
