I had a 4L and it was a slow go....so slow that one day I noticed it was really separated out and starting to turn a milky white rather than blue. Shook it up really good and looked better but still lighter in color. The very next day is was completely separated again so I dumped it. Glad I got it on sale cause that would've hurt bad otherwise. I should get more...

I assume that you didn't even give it a try after shaking it up?

No it was winter and I was just storing most stuff, not using it(apartment life, don't miss it). It was probably 3 years old at that point and the rate it separated out(overnight) alarmed me. I had a bad batch of Reload years past that streaked like a mofo and I didn't want to deal with anything like that again. Being CarPro, and SiO2, I figured it best to not risk it. It was a good 2L though, easy.

Ech2o is a super slow mover on my shelf too.. Mainly because I don’t use it on my own vehicles which makes it a rare occasion when I do. Same for Reload.

Bottle says it expired 2yrs. ago. I’ve had bad luck buying Carpro products and them showing up nearly expired when they’re brand new.

My bottle of Reload… Expired a year ago. I haven’t had these bottles for That long… They just be selling old product.

This is why I bought Dlux in a store so I could see the date on it.

I’m convinced a Top 3 list isn’t enough. I wonder if a Top 1 in several categories would be workable. Favorite wheel cleaner, interior cleaner, interior protectant, etc. But this one definitely finds the products people like/use the most.

No kidding! I only use it as a QD, and don't have a business, so at 1:20 the bottle will last nearly forever. I've had mine 3~4 years despite using it to maintain our 2~3 family cars. Still plenty left.

I have noticed in recent orders they are no longer putting the expire dates on the labels anymore. As least not on the few bottles I have gottne recently. I wonder why....

Yeah I have a problem buying gallons of stuff. I’ll never use it all.

Those are all great products, although I've yet to use Ech20 but it's on my list to try. Griots RW is fantastic.

I'm torn between using a RW for interiors vs a dedicated interior detailer. I've been bouncing back and forth between ONR @ 256:1 and Gyeon Interior Detailer. Both work very well.

As much as I like trying new products I'm a minimalist at heart and only like to have what I truly need. I don't like clutter and having a ton of products.

I'm coming from having a cluttered, ton of products to approaching a minimalist set up. Ech2o is among them. I have a gallon and a 16oz labeled bottle for it.

I really like it, but I just enjoy Opti-Clean more. They both seem to clean similarly, but the Opti-Clean seems more versatile.

The PFM gets mad love from forum members.

If I remember correctly [mention]fly07sti [/mention] the MF king wasn’t a fan. He actually likes LM sucker the best. Not available on AG.

[mention]Eldorado2k [/mention] likes the gauntlets, as well as the PFM’s if i recall.

I won’t buy the sucker as i’m not fond of Scott (the owner Dallas Paint Correction). Was gonna order one as I wanted a marolex foamer but found another vendor.

From what i’ve read the gauntlet has strips of teisted loop and plush MF towels. Early reading said it was design to work well with drying aids.

As Klasse said order one of each. You’ll probably like both but let is know what you think

For clarification, I love the PFM towels and have many in rotation and many new ones for future use. I just think the sucker performs just a smidge better and with the 16x24 option that it comes in is an incredible towel. The gauntlet is is very nice towel but it doesn’t glide across the paint smoothly without a drying aid for me.
I’m also not a fan persay of Scott, but the drying towels he sells are top shelf. FWIW, the sucker’s are extremely similar to the Notorious towel sold here at AG.

Once I plow through some of my current products, I think I'm going to splurge for POLISHANGEL Cosmic Spritz. Looks too good not to try.
