    2000 Durango 2 layers Wolfgang deep gloss sealant

    DGPS is awesome! That truck is in great shape for its age I need to break down and give my ride a fresh coat, but I'm a little over 6 months w/ a single application & it's still looking good and beading great, even with all this FL rain lately.

    Spray bottles

    JMK Plastic Spray Bottle I found these at my Ace Hardware & I really like it. I bought them off the shelf for $1 each. It seems online you have to buy them in bulk (set of 24), but the price per bottle is still very cheap. They're 34 oz. and they are pretty solid plastic. I've used these and...

    What do you use to apply your favorite tire dressing? And what is it...?

    I like to use PERL 1:1 in a small spray bottle. I feel like it applies to lettering and ribs on tires a little better & I can dial up/down the gloss easier. For applicators I like using costs me about $1.80. They don't last that long, but for the price I can live with tossing them after a few...

    Post your spray bottle of choice!

    No it doesn't have any labeling or a brand on it. I haven't seen them in my Ace before. It's been a month or so since I was there so maybe they are a special buy or something, idk. When I go back I'll ask someone if they know more about them. The upc on this one is: 039593040483 says made in...

    Post your spray bottle of choice!

    Yeah. The shelf sticker was $1.79, but it rang up at $1.00. They had red and green & it came wrapped in a plastic bag. It has Oz & mL markings on the side & is single action I'm thinking of going back to pick up 3-4 more even though I don't need 'em. I've been using HD bottles with no real...

    Post your spray bottle of choice!

    I just went to my local Ace hardware this morning and picked up a decent spray bottle for $1. It's not bad for a dollar and it actually gets a nice fine mist. 34oz / 1000mL

    Optimum No Rinse as a detailer?

    I wasn't thrilled with Optimum as a QD either. It cleans the paint and leaves a nice finish, but doesn't really add any slickness. UWW+ is awesome as a QD. It's my favorite detailing product to use at the moment. It cleans nicely, doesn't streak or smear, and leaves a decent slick finish. It...

    How do YOU clean windows?

    Stoners, WW towel to wipe, MF to follow up to avoid any streaks. As someone else already mentioned cleaning windows out of the sun or at least while they are cool makes the biggest difference.

    The Look Back?

    Every time, especially if I see anyone walking in the parking lot near my car...I walk slow and look back several times until I'm sure they're not anywhere around my car. I also always try to get a space where my car is against a curb or something so there is only 1 exposed side and make sure...

    How to clean wheel barrel?

    I use this Libman vent brush: I fold it in half and it's flexible enough to maneuver it to clean my wheels. It's not a great alternative, but I think it was like $8. My wheels are coated inside & out so they aren't too tough to clean.

    Hi from So. Florida

    Welcome to AG! Did they close the other one too? I know the one in Boca closed. That's a shame

    Figured I'd share this with you guys.

    Like you said, at least you didn't get ticketed. I've noticed that when I lived on the West coast of FL I got pulled over 2 or 3 times and never got ticketed. The cops over there were way more tolerant & actually talked to you rather than just throw an attitude, especially if you have a good...

    Substitute for 303 Protectant

    For exterior trim I prefer the Wolfgang ETS & I've started trying out the CarPro PERL to see how I like it. As previously mentioned, the Wolfgang has the cost, but a little dab will do. It spreads a long way. PERL can be diluted which stretches it farther as well. For the engine though, I still...

    What's the worst that could happen from mixing QD's?

    The only time I've ever done it was with PB Spray & Wipe and some Lucas Slick Mist Speed Wax. I had maybe twice as much S&W as the Lucas. I didn't notice any ill effects, but I'm sure depending on the brand & the ingredients it could cause some issues.

    Post Your Unpacking Pictures

    Just bought 2 of those units last weekend. $60 at Lowes. Great price for some decent shelving. They're not super heavy duty, but they satisfy my needs & the garage looks much nicer & more organized.

    Review: CarPro PERL

    I just got a liter of PERL for Christmas and am still experimenting with it as well. I haven't tried it on my tires straight from the bottle (no dilution), but I have been using it at a 1:1 (maybe a tad more PERL to water) & I like it a lot! This: 4 oz. Sample Bottle with Sprayer is what I...

    What products "WOW" you every time you use them?

    Wolfgang's ETS always impresses me when I use it, from the darkening it provides to the small amount of product needed. Another is my jar of Collinite Fleetwax. Every time I use it I feel like this jar might last me a lifetime because it takes so little to do an entire car and it lasts & lasts!

    I still can't get Poorboy's Spray and Wipe right...

    Yea, you don't really need a lot of S&W and make sure your final wipe is with a fairly dry side of the MF. I've also noticed that sometimes on very humid days any kind of detailing sprays can get streaky
