DG 105: Pleasantly suprised

I have a new bottle 105 for sale. PM me. Kidding....:cool:



Deja vu... reminds me of the discussions of NXT and its cleaners a few years ago.

I'm not too sure why you are hell bent on arguing about this. I already said I don't know what it's got in it so why do you keep going on about it?



Take a look at the pic and tell me there's no marring there?

Looks more like dust and an area that didn't get polished as well as the surrounding areas but NOT marring that you'd get from applying an abrasive LSP. At least I can see now that you just don't get it.:clap:



If you are looking for facts part of that process is the elimination of the distortion. 105 is an abrasive free product.

The results I got can't be attributed to pad or product only, it was a combination of the two.

rk,



I think the pad did most of the work on clearing up that haze. I don't think that 105 could have cleaned it up that haze, since I found it to be mild in cleaning like ColorX. KAIO (most notably pre-voc) could have taken out that haze by hand, but in your case, it was the abrasive nature of the that cutting pad that did most of the work.

For reasons unknown, you are ignoring the post somebody made where they explained it pretty clearly, he said:

the cleaners where mild enough when used by hand it can be layered

When used by a machine the cleaners will come into play more strongly due to pad aggressiveness and rapid rotation..

You keep using the word abrasive as if I ever said this product was. I thought I made it very clear my opinion on whether or not it was abrasive when I said:

I am not familiar with the formulation of it so I can't say.

Are abrasives the only way a product can have cleaning abilities? No. Did I ever say this product was abrasive? No. Did I ever say this product alone was the reason I got the results I got? No. Did I ever say the pad had nothing to do with said results? No. If there's anything I don't get, it's why you keep saying the same thing over and over as if my stance is opposite of yours.



You can keep telling me this product isn't abrasive, and that the pad dictated the level of cleaning and correction I got, until you're blue in the face so long as you understand that I never said it was abrasive and that the pad ALWAYS dictates the level of cleaning and correction you get with whatever product you're using. If it didn't, there would only be one pad needed regardless of the product.



Can we please let this go now?:thx

Please see post #56 where you indicate what we don't know.

Post #56 was posted by you.



when I said "WE don't know.....", it was in a conversation between you and I, and since you were making a claim in which I could neither confirm nor deny, as evident by me saying "I am not familiar with it's formulation so I can't say", WE, as in you and I, don't know if your claim is true. You may feel you know, and that's all fine and dandy, but don't speak for me and the other's who don't share the same opinion of this product as you do.



You are entitled to your opinion, as is everyone else, the world will keep spinning if someone doesn't agree with yours, get over it.



With this, I am done responding to you in this thread.
 
I think enough of us have expressed our opinions.........I would rather see a mutual closing between participans rather then have a mod shut 'er down.........

I have expressed my views on 105, and they stand. All three DG prods, 101, 105 111 are valuable products and can be used obviously for varying reasons. Find one which best suits your needs and continue with its use.

I have no more to offer with this thread and will only view from this point. I hope all of you can make a shot at a friendly closing statement.



To correct an earlier post about Optimum SW. It was brought to my attention, I may have misquoted myself. It originaly read 3-4 weeks of durability with OSW. When in actuality its at least another 50% higher for me. Mind you my personal vehicles are not garaged, and usually (both) sit in the sun all year long. So yes, upkeep is difficult! Any sealant applied on my cars is rather put to the test! And I have been known to be a little critical on "durability". For me, if I cant feel protection, then I apply additional product.
 
OK, guys, here is the word from Bill, one of the 2 DG inventors. Told him there was a controversy raging here and that my understanding was 105 was an LSP with some small cleaning action and long term durability. Here is his response..."Bill,



Thank you for allowing us to comment on this controversy about DG105. Your experience is correct. DG105 is formulated for mild cleaning, clear coat safe, high gloss and long lasting durability and protection. Recommended for both new and older vehicles. DG105 can also be used in combination with PBA601.



You may post this if you prefer. Thanks again for taking the time to email us, and a special thanks for using Duragloss.







Best Regards,



Bill"
 
I talk to the DG Guys about 9 months ago and told them I wanted something to get the shine I already had a little boost. I said then I need to use 105 and he told me no. He said 111 is better and would remove little if any of the existing products on the car. Just what I was told.

Seeing as it is the 6th page and yall are still arguing over this subject, I dont see that happening anytime soon.:doh
 
This thread seems to have some distance in it.



DG 105 is more a Wax/sealant which forms a protective coating and shine.



To obtain the best results and durability with the DG products they are best used as a system.



My Duragloss detail consists of this,



DG wash con



Clay barred



DG paint cleanser



DG polish bonding agent (no need to buff of)



Then a final coat of either DG 105 or 111 CCP.



Once this initial detail has been applied it's just a case of using the wash concentrate and Aquawax to recharge the finish each time.
