First time using my DGECC and what a pleasure it was. The squeaky clean went on like nothing and wiping it off was even easier! No complaints about this system so far. Id like to see the 2 years though.

PRODUCTS/TOOLS

CG Citrus Wash Red
Lake Country Foam Car Wash Sponge
PB Bug Squash
Safe Scrub Bug and Tar pad
CG All Clean+
DG Squeaky Clean
DG Envrioshield CC
GG6
Black Lake Country 5.25" Flat pad
Gold Plush 16x24 MF



First of all, I just XMT360 corrected this car and sealed with Optimum Opti-seal about 2 months ago so there was no correction needed at all. It has 26k miles on it.

I rinsed the car, sprayed the front with PBBS and scrubbed them with the SSB&TP, sprayed down the lower rockers with CGAC+ and used the pad again.

Washed the car with 2bm, CG CWRed, and Lake Country Sponge

I then got out my GG6 and black pad and went to town with the Squeaky Clean. Let me tell you this product was so easy to work with. It doesnt stain the trim. I can really see why they called it Squeaky Clean....thats EXACTLY what your paint does afterwards SQUEAKS when you're wiping it off with the MF. I used the Cobra Gold Plush to remove after it dried to a haze and it came of EFFORTLESSLY, very easy. Here are the prep pics

Next came the application of the Coating. I used one of the supplied applicators. I had to contemplate whether to use the foam side or the MF side and opted to try it with the MF side. I dont know if the foam side would do any different but I certainly didnt end up with any streaks or high spots. I used 1 or 2 sprays per panel and I doubt I put a very big dent in the bottle. It looks like I could easily get 4 or 5 Malibu out of this kit. On to the pics.
