Today after the rain stopped I decided to work on the truck...
I used all Duragloss products...
Washed with Duragloss shampoo
Polished with #671 SMR..this polish is like AIO..it has some micro abrasive`s ,cleaners and some sealant also..It did a good job of removing the light marring I had..it works for a long time..no dusting or gumming up...it left the paint with a nice finish...glossy and slick...only downside was it was a little effort to remove..not bad..but not as easy as taking the sealants off....
next applied the the #601 bonding agent..this stuff goes on real easy..on lighter colors it may be hard to see it on the paint... it goes on almost clear until hazed..on the red I could just see it going on..
next was the #105 Total Performance Polish...This stuff is a breeze to put on...I used a foam applicator ..I put a drop the size of a quarter to start the hood with...it did the whole hood stuff just spreads easy...and goes on thin...did the whole truck...with probably a half ounce...this stuff just spreads....
While waiting for it to haze over..I did the trim and window rubbers with the #253..Tire and Matt dressing...was told I could use it on plastic trim..so I did...leaves a nice finish...not glossy..but not matte...more of a natural look...more coats would make it glossy...dries nice..no streaks...used a foam wipe to put it on...to bad I can`t do the tires yet..still muddy roads..seems a waste now...
cleaned the rims with the #101 polish cleaner..let haze removed and applied the 105 on after...did a good job cleaning the rims...
The 105 was in direct sun while doing this..so hazed up nice...removed it with 2 MF towels..it comes off easier then any product I have used so far...no effort at all to remove
the final out come was WOW...it did leave a nice finish..darkened my paint some...it was clear and glossy and WET..and slick as snot...wiped down one more time to ensure it was all off...
Did not use AW yet..it looked like rain was coming so I picked up and called it a day....
the products work together and leave a shine to beat...
some pictures..not to good as it was getting overcast ..they do not do the shine justice..way better looking than the pictures
