A while back I posted some pics of Duragloss - but I have been out of some products and had to go to carquest so I picked up their Polish Lok, Carwash and some Fast Clean Shine.
First - thier car wash - it`s awesome - I was really impress how slick it was and it might be in a run for my all time favorite 4* PAW - these two are the only ones that when I dry with the WW my car feels slick. I have very hard water so when I rinse and then dry I usually lose any slickness until I use S&W or a QD.
The polish lok - it`s hard to describe. You buff it on, and leave it. That`s it no off (and it is supposed to work with any polymer not just duragloss). The bottle says it will remove old product and work with your sealant to make it bond to the finish better. I used a meg`s yellow pad @ 4 and applied it to the whole car. No muss and no fuss. Just on....
The instructions were brief and didn`t say if I should let it haze before I put on the DG so I waited a few minutes then did just that.
Meg`s tan soft buff @ 3 and slapped on a coat of DG. It has a minty smell and goes one smooth and thin. I think I only applied product to the pad three times to do the whole car - it just kept going!
I waited 30 minutes then removes with a MF polishing cloth - that`s it. I pulled it outside and did the rims (buffalo milk) and tires (Natural look this time)..
I must say I am impressed - but see for yourself -

let me know what you think - BTW the Polish Lok, Car wash, FCS came to 14 bucks total and the duragloss is 6.95 - a little over 20 bucks not a bad deal for these results!
