Dual Polymer Waterless wash

Dri-wash and guard or something like that? I remember my father had a few bottles of it around that time from a friend of his that was into multi-level marketing which is how that product was sold then.

If if that isn't the product, then disregard this post.
 
Actually this looks like a very good product and I was surprised by how well the host knows his product(most don't). I also try to ignore the packaging design as it can conceal how well a product works.

Here is why this product looks good:

Its polishes.
What water less car wash do you know have polishing agents? Zero,nada,none. Cars are always getting small scratches and this addresses that problem without having to do serious polishing.

Acrylic Resin.
Wax is OUT. Its old school technology. Sealants are the new technology to protect your car. This however, intrigued me the most, as its an acrylic resin. That's basically liquid acrylic. This should provide a much more durable layer of protection than traditional wax.

Dual Polymer.
One to protect while cleaning(that's the most important part of water less, you can do without all the other bits), one to protect after cleaning that last for months. Now, maybe the second polymer is the acrylic resin im not sure but what I am sure of is that most Water less wash products does not protect your car, it only cleans. Protection after washing is extremely weak to where you can consider it nonexistent, and this product addresses that also. The polymers used in popular water less wash brands is made from soy. This one is made from acrylic resin.

With that said, I have not tried the product yet but it looks extremely promising. Thanks to OP for introducing it.

BTW, if you own a newer model Nissan or Lexus with self healing paint, do not use any solution with abrasives in it or get it polished/detailed. The car only needs a good sealant.

For a first post, this is pretty promotional, not to mention inaccurate.

Wax is OUT? Not to enthusiasts who prefer the carnuba look.
sealants are the new technology? Maybe in 1997 when this product was introduced. Look into coatings for the newest technology.

Maybe be this product is good, maybe not. Don't know. Posts like this that aren't reviews make me skeptical and think the product itself is secondary to the promotion and marketing.
 
Can't help myself but when I hear about Acrylics I think of VaporWax. Some of the long timers will remember that product. To this date I'm still not aware of anyone who has actually tried it. I'll bet Ron has, he seemed to be in tight with those guys, caveman. ;)
 
So my friend who swears by this just tells me on facebook that he put three coats of this on his car and it looks great.

I tried to explain to him how the alleged abrasives in this would defeat any layering purposes. He disagreed. But what do I know?

I can't wait to get my hands on some of this miracle stuff. I just dont feel like making a 60+ mile 1 way trip to San Antonio to pick it up right now. We have a club cruise in a week or so. Hoping to get it then.
 
Uhhhhh, hello, Im not the one that made this thread. Here I am trying to explain how the product works and it gets called promotional(it is, kinda) uhhh hello again,but do you want me to make stuff up or what? Car care is 90% products dude.

Ok Ok Im inaccurate and wax is not out...only because most enthusiast have no clue how much better a sealant is than traditional wax, or how much better a waterless wash is compared to good old soap and water. I already know about coatings, but im talking about water-less wash/sealants/waxes here. As for the wax shine preference, debatable.

and lol at dualpolymer being made in 1997 and no one knowing anything about it. Actually, that does not surprise me one bit, as this is the thought that runs through most peoples mind- "how da heck you gon clean a car without soap and water". And that is how water less wash products end up losing a lot of money, however, its slowly catching on.

Btw, I stated that I have not used the product so why would I even promote something I have not used? I stated reasons why the product LOOKS good rather than IS good.
 
No offense intended but car care with respect to detailing is NOT 90% product. I think you'll find most folks that take care of their own car and end up with a respectable finish would tell you that your numbers are backwards. It is interesting how 2 people can look at the same information and not see the same thing. Having watched the video I would not be remotely inclined to try this product. It didn't LOOK GOOD to me. Still a caveman.:)
 
It didn't look good to me either and to be honest, the design, the packaging, and host was not appealing at all. It has this low quality product aura to it. However, I've learned to not pay too much attention to packaging and LISTEN to how the product actually works. The next time you go to Walmart, check out car maintenance aisle and look at Armor Alls packaging. They are some of the most beautiful packaging I've ever seen. Makes me want to buy it even though Ill never use it.

Btw, I detail cars...so how are you going to tell me my numbers are off? So you're saying most people are car detailers now? You're not going to get a showroom finish with soap and water. Its the tools that makes or breaks a car detailer. Again, if it isn't 90% products like you don't believe, why is there TONs and TONs of products being sold to you guys again?

I believe you are dramatically discounting your effort and technique. As a detailer you've got to know you could take any one of a dozen different brands of polishes or LSP's and end up with a beautiful finish. I sincerely believe that ones ability to polish and their attention to detail is in many cases the difference between a great and an average detail. Now if all you're doing is washing and drying a car then the numbers may be skewed to some degree. I don't think most Detailers are looking for a polish in their wash. That's not knocking an AIO but that is post wash in my mind.

Lastly, I would never knock a Pro Detailer, my hat's off to them. I also believe that many enthusiast Detailer's deliver a final product that can stand up to what Pro's do. Pro's are often limited on what they can deliver by what a customer is willing to pay. Do you believe this video is marketing this product to professionals? As I said previously, I'd be interested in your review. That's my 2 cents. Your mileage may vary.
 
This is the only detailing product I use. I recommend buying many gallons of it. I've pretty much tossed all my other products in the garbage since trying this (will toss rest of products next week - garbage was already full from last week).

Basically, it's a home run. I feel sorry for you, if you are not using this product. This is the new car dealer's secret... Did you know the polymers in this product are manufactured overseas? Most detailers in Europe have been using this product for ages now. It wet washes and dri-washes all in one step (technology for this is costly)...

Basically, your car looks better if you just pour this stuff in a bucket and dump it on he car. That's all you have to do. You Tube banned all subsequent videos, as enlightenment may upset the detailing market - and eventually the economy as a whole. Many celebrities endorse this product as well:

- Kelly Clarkson

- Eric Estrada

- Nena

- Ted Lance

- Moms Mabley

- Paul Lynde / Jim J. Bullock

- George Sanders (one of my favorite actors)

- Rocky

- Bullwinkle

etc...

I'm all for a new product and testing it out.

Yes we can agree this product probably does not make due on what it claims.

I'm not saying I plan on purchasing it by any means, I'm not even willing to drive up there to get a sample of it from my friend unless I was going to be there anyways.

And I'm definitely not putting it on my vehicles, well maybe a small area on my truck before I polish it down again, but I find the product interesting. And I immediately wanted to test it out (mostly to show my buddy he was wasting his money).

This is the same guy who swears by peanut butter on his trim mind you. So you can understand my desire to validate my initial hypothesis.

I gave him some blackfire TPS, WDAFPP, and MS spray to use on his car and he told me he's good with the dual polymer stuff.

To each their own I know but I would like to do some 50/50s with even light AIOs in my collection like xmt 360 or TPS, why not.
 
I have a Tri-Polymer waterless wash if anyone want to try it. So it has to be better than just a dual polymer by at least one.



Oh, and it's called: Blackfire Waterless wash......

Is there room left on that vehicle that isn't a test bed for your collection of waxes and sealants?

Well, actually some room on the drivers side... :)

roof: essence topped w/ 50/50 midnight sun paste and supernatural paste

Hood: see my sealant throwdown

Drivers fender, doors and dr side bed left as is (2+ yr old pbl and topped with MS paste)

Pass doors and fender essence + nattys black wax

Pass rear bed as is + nattys black

Tailgate: since initial pbl application in dec 2013 was only topped with synergy and that was in july 2014 or so.
