Help With A Line Of Products. (Gliptone)

[Jmiller07]

Have you guys ever heard of or used Gliptone ? My auntworks at a car dealership and she is able to get me this stuff fairly cheap, not exactly sure on the prices though. I figured I am only 16, so I may not necessarily need the most expensive products, but at the same time, I am not going to risk the quality of the product being used on the cars I work on. They seem to have some professional stuff on hand , and I was curious what you all thought. I know sometimes you complain about dealership details and I was wondering if it was because of their procedure , or because of the products used. I see a carpet extractor in their pictures and some other things that I might want to pick up that won't necessarily be part of the chemicals used on the car. Thank you all for reading and if you have time please drop what you think about the company.... I also see that they don't have the PC so I will probably be buying that somewhere else.

Alot of people swear by there leather care I know that much.

 

[Jmiller07]

That's good to know, so im guessing this is one product line many people don't have complaints about ?

It's a product from decades ago. I've noticed a few folks discuss it in the past. Did you attempt to use the search function?



I think Advance Auto Part carries some of the range.

Gliptone Detailing Products Q&A





Seems like they have got a lot of good reviews. Someone on Autopia was kind of enough to send me some samples which I am very greatful for. Can't wait to try them out.

I used their wash once in a foam gun - it's not Duragloss, but its an altogether decent wash.

I tried a about 7 or 8 of thier products and only liked 2 or 3. I tired hard to find one I liked because the rep was getting me work. I don't think I tired any polishes.

What products did you use and like ?

Magtastik- I would use this for the nasty rims on dealers cars.

Citrus 400 Tire Cleaner- This I just used the other day. I found it on my shelf. It was one of the samples the rep gave me to try a while ago.



There was another one that wasn't bad but I forget the name. I tried the tire dressing, interior dressing and a few other things and didn't like them at all. Those products were disliked by everyone in the shop.

Since your mother works there see if you can get some samples to try before you buy it. Or find out what day the Gliptone rep stops by. He might give you some samples.

Actually someone on the forum was nice enough to send me some samples so i'm waiting on this... It's my aunt BTW, she gave me another number to call saying that her "detailers" have a different guy they like to go to and saying I should give him a call, so im gonna call him now.

I use their leather cleaner in the TT. Surprising to see how much crap was bedded into the leather when I used this for the first time. A definite thumbs up from me
