Fathers 2004 Denali work truck. Generally good shape but some swirls and etched water spots, not to bad though. No full sun shots b/c I still havent had this thing still long enough to get it polished like it should be. That is the reason the pictures are so crappy, he had to meet some clients and I had to hurry.



Wash-Turtle wax

#105 with MF applicator

AW with Vroom Drying towel

Meguiars foam for tires

Duragloss vinyl and leather dressing for trim and wells

Duragloss AW for glass

Duragloss FC&S for final wipe.



Like I said, sorry for the crappy pics, had to hurry and I suck at picture taking anyway.

Overall, I love #105 Total Performance Polish. Very wet reflective look, EXTREME Slickness when paired with AW (read: surpasses UPP slick). Easy to apply and remove and great smell. I will definatly be using this on my other clients. On a side note, I hope durability for this is better than AJ/CJ. They only lasted 1 month with no washes and minimal rain. Truck is garaged at night.



Thanks for looking.





EDIT: WOOT! 400 posts!

WOW..that looks great....nice wet look...and for doing just the bare minimum...It will be durable....111 is going thru 5 weeks of rain on and off..and still holding up and looking great....



I bet with the PBA and the 105 you would of brought it to the next level....shine and durability wise...but that looks great now..my 105 should be here later on today or in the morning...will do my truck during the 4th weekend..I get 3 days off....



real Nice

yeah, I have not yet seen if PBA is nessisary for #105 but I guess it may be for durabilitys sake.

#105/AW is what i have on my car, it`s been about a month and it still beads and looks like i applied it yesterday. It`s a great product at an amazing price.

The truck look great!!

I am going on 3 months with prime and 1x of AJ on the wifes car. It still looks great and beads very well. I usually QEW wash 3-4 times a month, then twice a month use Z8 or HGAS.



Did you use prime when you used AJ/CJ?

No, I only used AIO, I am sure prime may have helped it a little.

Jerry said using the PBA with the 105 is the best way to go...gives it a nice hard coat...it acts like a catalyst to bring out the fullness in the 105..111..



So if you got that great look with just 105....it shows it is a great product just on its own...



what was the smell of the product..111 is a spearmint like smell...most of the other products have a tropical smell to them..not that it matters...



the truck sure looks nice...

Prime helps it a lot. I noticed a big difference when I started using Prime, not only in appearance (somewhat better) but more slickness right off the bat and tighter beading.



Anyway, the Denali looks great, very nice glow. :)
