Most durable sealant for me has been DG 501 and the most durable wax has been Collinite. This is probably why I now use both for my vehicles.

x2 What Collinite is to waxes with its price, looks, and longevity Duragloss is to sealants!

I used to exclusively use Tide but noticed the towels getting "stiffer." I then tried Griot's microfiber wash and the towels did seem to come out softer. However, I am now using Tide combined with distilled white vinegar (more cost effective) and the mf towels come out both clean and soft.

My favorite AIO is Duragloss 501, which has both strong cleaners and nano-abrasives plus, since it is a sealant, it will last up to 6 months. I always top with Collinite 845.

Please keep in mind all of the Meguiar's microfiber pads that separated using any and all DA orbital buffers and not just Griot's. This was the main reason I tried the Optimum product since I was hoping that it would avoid the Meguiar's scenario. Unfortunately for me (and many others), the...

I destroyed two Optimum mf pads (first use) just on the hood of my car. I used a Griot's and speed 5 and switched pads per section. I had separation on one pad and the other pad on the back showed evidence of light melting and part of it was black. I was using D300. I was very disappointed but...

My griot's clay started to fall apart (almost disintegrate) after a year of use. At first I assumed it was because I had tried Griot's waterless wash but then the next time I switched to UWW+ and the disintegration continues :( The clay is kept indoors in Griot's clay can and I always spray it...

I recently started using UWW+ on the interior on my Lexus and I haven't looked back. I even use the damp towels, after a waterless wash, to clean the exterior windows and it does a very good job.

Happy birthday, Bobby.

Interesting Chris because my brother did lose his unlimited data. He was told that he would have to buy the phone at full price if he wanted to keep the unlimited data plan on Verizon :(

I'd get the iPhone 5 because it has an extra 1/2 inch of screen space and the LTE (4G). Also, PC Magazine just dubbed the iPhone 5 the fastest phone and Anandtech also showed it beating every phone currently available. It has double the memory of the iPhone 4S and so is more future proof as well.

+2, if she wants an iPhone then get her one---it is considered by her peers the cool phone. I currently have a Samsung Galaxy 3 and I had an iPhone 4. I am not the type, and your daughter probably isn't, that will root and flash the phone weekly. The iPhone 4S is a fantastic phone and she...

These test aren't exactly "scientific" but does the Griot's sealant claim to sheet water instead of bead?

Great review, thanks! I am a hobbyist and got the Griots solely because of the lifetime warranty. Since I only use the machine a couple of times a year the warranty was what tipped it in Griots favor. I knew the GG had more power than the Meg's but also Meguiars was having major cord issues with...

Griot's speed shine is the best dedicated QD that I have used as well. It does contain some wax, which should boost protection some. Naturally, the areas you wash the most will wear own the fastest.

Collinite, best bang for the buck wax! IME, just like Duragloss, best bang for the buck sealant.

Yes, from what I understand, the PC is made in Mexico and China now. And, yes, it certainly is sad to see the US losing the manufacturing industry. For the record, I have a Griot's and absolutely love the machine and I do not have to worry about the pad stopping. In fact, I'm constantly...
