Today I had a chance to play with the New Wolfgang Deep Gloss Liquid Seal (WGDGLS) and Wolfgang Pad Werks Polishing Pad Cleaner (WGPWPPC).

The vehicle is a 1998' Ford Explorer.In decent shape but had some swirls.

Here is the hood before any work was started:

First thing first,I cleaned the hood using Meg's D114 Rinse Free Express Wash diluted at WW concentrate.Sprayed the hood liberally and wiped clean with a Chinchilla MF:

Thou hard to see defects on this Gold colored vehicle,the swirls/scratches were present:

My weapons of mass correction were a FLEX 3401VRG,OPT's HP,and a Green Waffle Polishing Pad:

Shook up the HP really well,and put a few sprays on the face of the Polishing pad:

Several section passes on speed 5 on the 3401:

I wiped off the OPT HP with a tight nap edgeless MF and sprayed the corrected area down with CarPro's Eraser to insure the area was fully corrected:

Looks corrected and no swirls/scratches remaining:

I then took the WGDGLS and shook that product up very well:

I sprayed a few sprays on half the hood trying to not cover the half of hood but just anticipate how much I would need to spread an even coat over half the hood.I'm doing the same process for the second half of the hood (using the hood as two sections to protect):

Then I took a MF block applicator and started to spread the product around and work it into the finish until everything looked neat and consistant:

The product indeed left a nice gloss deep looking finish.Oh I forgot to mention,this product has a very yummy smell to it,almost reminded me how the gum Juicy Fruit smells:

Well after I was done applying the WGDGLS,I thought I would try out the WGPWPPC.

Here is the Green Waffle Polishing Pad,after polishing with spent product in/on it:

Laid the pad down and sprayed it with the WGPWPPC:

After letting the pad dwell with the pad cleaner for several minutes.I then messaged the cleaner into the pad with my fingers for about 15sec,I then proceeded to rinse the cleaner out:

The WGPWPPC rinsed clean from the pad without hesitation and without effort.I thought the Wolfgang pad cleaner did a superb job at cleaning the polish from the pad:

Thanks for the review. WGDGS will be part of my next order for sure.

Nice review. How does it compare with WGDGPS ( gloss , durability ,etc ). Based the Application Directions, it can be layered after an hour.:cheers:

I'm interested in this also, as well, is it a replacement for Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant?

No. WDGPS 3.0 will remain in the line, being a more durable sealant and with a different method of application (a traditional one).

WDGLS is a WOWA sealant like BFCS or Z-CS. So, it's easier than WDGPS to work with.

You can top WDGPS 3.0 with WDGLS for added UV protection since WDGLS has the highest content of UV inhibitors in the Wolfgang line.

Great response. The text highlighted in red was spot on RMM! I remember Mike Phillips said how some show cars processes involve a sealant followed by a wax. To tie this back in with my new question, Does this WDGLS act as that "wax" in my example from Mike above?

Obrigado!
 
Looks great. Right now I'm sticking with BF Pad Cleaner, but I just ordered this sealant and the new WG Pad Conditioner. Can't wait to try the new sealant topped with Fuzion - anyone try that combo yet???
 
thanks mg6045.
I was trying to connect the cleaner to the product being cleaned.
Got a bit confused.
Anything that'll clean a non-water base product is good with me.
tks again!
 
The pad that was used (Green Waffle) is a competitors pad that I won't post but starts with an A.

Thank you EVERYONE that responded.BOTH products worked well and were easy to use. :)
