I just stripped down my truck, loving that DG #201 you sent me ;)

Nice job. How is the DG Tire Gel, didn't even know they had a gel?
 
SparkieYou made that car look brand new.Neat to see how you used the DG.
 
Nice Sparkie, that car looks really good. I really like your write up. Very nice.

That DG looks like good products.
 
Nice work sparkie! Did the car have some bad marring or no?

Really good stuff, I've been using their wash more then Poorboys SSS and haven't used my Quickshine in over a month from using their qd Fast Clean and SHine spray. AW is really good as well, if you have flake, it makes flake pop like hell but has a nice, wet look to it, it's like a qd'er+ on steroids lol. It's just unique that its a spray sealant yet works fine over a carnauba, fairly durable as well, one of our cars went over a month with a just a light spray and it was still beading.

I think it's the fact that the line is cheap yet competes with the big boys and in quite a few cases surpases them. Sparkie sent me their Vinyl/leather Dressing #201, I love it, smells good and does great not only on vinyl or leather, but works damn good on trim and doesn't run (wasn't made for trim, but happens to work well), even better then Trim Restorer in my case.
 
Great job, Sparkie! I have not been dissapointed with any Duragloss products myself.
And love the fact that many of them come in 8 oz bottles (that's what makes it look cheap), it is very handy.

Looks like its right off the factory floor, great work!
 
abrcrombe, the paint was in real good shap, marring no. Just had a lot of overspray on her. Used the XMT3 where I needed it. Hood, top, trunk, and around door handles.

Excessive Detail, lot of bang for the buck IMO. What Surfer said is about right.

Surfer, right now I don't know which product I like the best on trim and rubber. 303 or #201.

ltoman, Are you saying I'm hot, or my work is hot?;)

Thanks guys for looking.
 
Sparkie...Awesome results...Using the DG system gives best results...they work with each other..DG developed thier polymers the work with each product they make..just like Zaino..FK1 and Meguiars..Wolfgang..Pinnacle did..all thier products are made to work best with each other...

So with you using the system you got great results....I am a believer that using a system like DG..FK1..Zaino..Megs..Wolfgang..Pinnicle.. ..you get optimum results as they are made to work and complement each other...

Again great results...

Surfer..the DG 201 is a great trim product...does not streak..wash off in rain or washings..it has a great look on black trim..more of the natural look....and best of all it lasts...

I was told DG may have some new products in the horizon..

Keep up the good work Sparkie...

DG 201 eh??? I might have to give this a shot. I was going to try 303, but since their prices are going up, it won't be that affordable for a buisness.

How well does 201 work on exterior plastic trim???

Works pretty damn well, I sprayed onto an applicator then applied quickly before it could absorb in the applicator. The bottle sprays, but on my trim its hard to get on w/o hitting the paint. Brings back the nice color of the trim in a good way, like its fresh, and not laced with just some dressing.

Or I can spray at the trim at a certain angle to avoid the paint and wipe around with an applicator (won't harm paint I just don't want to clean it up lol). Smells like nice shaving cream to me :D , or a French hooker like somebody said on here, never smelt a French hooker so I don't know :D

Check the other thread, I replied to your other "smell" post ;)


But the DG #201 is good, I think I may put some in a smaller mister bottle so I can have more control over a fine area. Works better the Trim Restorer in my case.
