Hey folks,

I would like some feedback as to which is a better sealer based on ease of application, shine and protection. I currently use DGPS but am not impressesed with it on my LeMans Blue Vette. It was stellar though on my Pewter Metallic Vette which I no longer own. Also, I'm not a fan of the WG detailing sprays either. I have been using the various PB detailers with fantastic results. I'm wondering if I should just switch to Natty's and keep all my exterior products confined to one product family.

Thanks!
Steve

Nattys is cheap enough to give it a go, why not test it yourself?

I have both the pb and wg. PB smells great, is easy to use and really make my titanium silver B pop. Durability is almost none here in south florida.

I, however, find waxing my car to be therapy ... So I enjoy it.

What products are you using to prep the paint surface before applying the DGPS ? I get excellent results on dark colored vehicles using the DGPS. A Paint Sealant will give you longer durability than a Carnauba Wax will. I like to use the DGPS and top it with the FUZION for the best possible shine, depth and durability.

I prepped using WG clay bar/lubricant and WG PPE. It just doesn't pop like it did on my previous vehicle. Also, I now have visible swirls from prepping and bringing the shine up. I considering doing again with swirl remover and glaze to remedy. Since I am very fond of the PB detailers I was just thinking of switching product lines.
 
I used natttys blue on my platinum grey jetta and love how it looks. Smells good too.
I've been wanting to try red but havent got around to it yet.
 
I have both Pb waxes and I think red is easier to apply ( more buttery), smell better and is just as wet as blue but as a bonus it make the flakes pop! So, I would go with PB red.

IMO, the best Pb product is their wheel sealant.2) SSR polish line 3. Natty red and a great fourth place is QD+.

I do love the wheel sealant as well. I polished my wheels with the PB Pro Polish followed by 3 coats of wheel sealant. I don't even have to wash my wheels. They wipe clean with a dry or damp microfiber.

What SSR polishes have you used and by what method.
 
I have the whole serie ( 2x SSR1, 3x SSR2 3x SSR2.5 and 1x SSR3). My best combo is Orange pad /SSR2 always on a makita 9227 speed 2 to 3.
 
First, your comparing a sealant to a wax. You can top the DGPS with the natty's for extra durability. Paint can still dull, polishing will remedy that.

You sir are correct!! Thanks for pointing that out. What I meant to ask is how does DGPS and PB's EX-P Pure Sealant and EX Sealant and Carnauba compare? Is one better than the other?

Ain't that the truth! For us fanatics, it's like we don't really care about durability lol

How did you get swirls from prepping the surface??? Using MF's alongside QD's and paintwork cleansers should NOT cause swirls. How are you applying/performing this task? You need to make sure you're following proper technique.

As far as DGPS, I love the stuff, esp on dark colored vehicles. It's VERY easy to use, almost a wipe on wipe off product, good durability, and very deep shine.

I'm sure the swirls were already there prior to me starting. After prepping and sealing I can just see more depth in the paint since there is no oxidation etc. The previous owner never detailed or waxed the car since it sat in his personal car museum and was very rarely driven. I'm pretty sure he was old school and used terry towels, California Duster, etc., not microfiber or good discipline. I'm well aware of how to detail and take care of vehicles, I'm just stumped with this color. My usual processes and products used aren't yielding the usual excellent results.

I too, still actually use this after every drive. It leaves some streaks from the paraffin built in, then I QD after I dust. I have had good luck with this duster technique. I have not seen swirls/scratches develop from this. I think the trick is to let the "hairs" on the duster do the work... in other words, I always "lift" the duster off the surface of the car so there is no weight on the duster pushing it down into the paint.

Does anyone still use the duster? I find that it works great!

If your using a QD after it why use the duster :confused: just an extra step in my book... start with the QD and you would be done
 
I have a CD right beside my truck, and use it a couple times a week.

I use the duster first so I can get the heavier/majority dust off. If I go straight to QD'ing with MF, I am literally rubbing the dirt between the MFs and the paint which means increased chance of scratches/swirls. With the duster, I am essentially removing the layer of dirt without scratching it, then I follow up with the QD to remove remaining dust and paraffin streaks from duster.
