I could feel the difference already. Once the Riverside summer kicks in, I am sure I will appreciate it even more. The back windows have dark tint, but I went medium in the front for better visibility at night, especially since my wife drives it sometimes. I will post some pics this weekend. |

To all those who think UPGP is expensive, you could not be more wrong. I've put 6-7 coats on my ES over the past 6 months and the bottle still appears full. Hard to tell exactly how many uses you would get from a bottle, but its got to at least 60 to 70 and maybe even 100. I don't think twice about putting on a coat after a wash - not only is it cheap, it is quick and easy. I know KnucleBuckett has said all this - but it true, true, true.

You're welcome! I absolutely agree with you. I have probably applied a total of 40 layers on several vehicles now and the bottle is still pretty full. |

Re: Super Wet
I used UPGP today for the first time. I was sure I had used WAY too much of the sample that I have. I barely used any and I swore I was wasting the stuff.

Here are a couple of pics with the front windows already tinted. The car was already really dusty and dirty. |

Re: Super Wet
Don't mean to steal this thread, but how do you apply DWG? Do you just wipe it on and let it haze and then wipe it off or do you wipe until clear? Someone mentioned burnishing the glaze with a pc until all haze is gone. Anyone tried this approach?
