Duragloss 501 Short Take.
Duragloss Marine RV Polish #501 cleans, polishes, and shines gelcoat fiberglass boat and RV finishes. Duragloss durable boat and RV polishes.
I was down in Florida visiting family, my father in law let me borrow his 2004 Camry to get from Tampa to Ocala. He is the original owner and last time this car was waxed was in 2007 when I used NXT by hand. This car has not been touched since, and it has been handed down to my wifes brother who has not kept it up and has etched paint down to the metal from bird bombs and baked on bugs…….I had 4 hours to dedicate so I gave it a quick detail. This was a challenge, and since I was doing this to say thanks. First I used Pinnacle Poly Clay to remove all the contamination. Then used DG 501 to clean the paint and remove oxidation, here I was really surprised, how well DG 501 cleaned the paint. I did four passes with the cyan pads, and finished with the tangerine pads with 4 passes also. The LSP on the car was Wolfgang Liquid Seal. I finished the glass with Pinnacle Waterspot remover and and Pinnacle Glass Sealant.
Just look at these pads!!!! This was after washing the car with Megs gold class/dawn, spraying the surface with Megs APC+, and claying!!!
I ran out of 501, so grabbed some DG 105 to finish off the roof of the car. It didnt clean as well, but still did a great job.
Clay after the hood only
Befores
Etched down to the metal
It was starting to rain so I had to wrap up quick, This car really needs to be repainted, but for now this will do for them.
Some after’s. Didn’t take many but the turnout was a lot better than I expected with limited supplies and time. The car had no reflection to extremely hazy before.
Overall the DG501 was easy to use, let it haze and remove effortlessly. DG 501 has found a sweet spot in my detailing arsenal and will be ordering more soon.
