I also use 501 with an LC 5.5 white pad :)
And, yes, results are awesome. What Collinite is to wax with durability and inexpensiveness, Duragloss is to sealants.
 
Performing a winter prep on a 2008 Dodge Charger R/T with no intentions of a correction, I performed a test spot and here is the result:

Before:



After:



Applied via Griot's Garage DA, 5.5" white LC pad, speed 5, very little pressure. Don't underestimate this product.

Am I missing something? They don't look different to me.
 
Richard,

Duragloss 501 really cleaned up that section on the photo and the after shot looks perfect!! :dblthumb2:

It kind of shocked me BobbyG due to the fact that I wasn't applying much pressure, mostly just to keep the machine level and guide it. I'm going to grab some good 50/50's today and hopefully I remember to take after pictures so I can share. :)
 
That is great, nice work. I've been trying like hell to find it locally, NAPA doesn't want to order it and Car Quest didn't have it in stock. I might just have to bite the bullet and put an order in.

Look at the metal flake and the clarity of the overhead light in the first pic and now look at the amount of flake you can see and the clarity of the overhead light in the second pic. See the difference?
 
I love DG 501. Probably one of my favorite paint cleaners !!! Plus it has a decent amount of protection.
 
Just a little update. My previous experiences with Dodge paint proved to be rock hard but not this one. I had a little issue with the DG 501 striping with the white pad regardless if I used a little bit of product or a lot of product, very little or medium pressure. So after further testing I settled on a LC 5.5" low pro Crimson HT pad. Below are the results:

Before you can see the dirt in the paint even after using a clay bar

Here's a little sun shot before DG 105. As you can see DG 501 really makes flake pop



I should have some pictures from the owner soon and will put together a small write up. :)
