Bluewater Clutched October 25, 2011 Share October 25, 2011 Some humble pics to share My DIY Steps as follows: (1) Duragloss Car Wash Concentrated 901 + Claybar Sentosa foam party shampoo definitely makes the claying process so easy, unlike other shampoo used previously. * Optimum No Rinse Wash & Shine on occasions when car is still relatively clean (2) Duragloss Polish Cleaner 101 Layer over with a MF applicator before buffing off with a MF cloth once the indonesian haze is noticed on the paintwork. (3) Duragloss Paint Sealant 105 As of Step (2) but using a sponge applicator instead (4) Enviro-Shield Time is precious. So, I can't wait for #105 to cure. I'll normally just pamper myself to a 15mins' smoke time before working on the Enviro-Shield. As of Step (3) again. (5) Optimum Power Clean + Duragloss Rubber & Flat Black Dressing 271 OPC is used to effectively clear off all residue and stain at rubber bumpers and black trims, before finishing with #271 to give an uniform flat black look. (6) Duragloss Wet Look Tire Shine 281 Straightforward application (7) 5 mins to appreciate the bling bling gloss & wetness look of being duragloss-ed & Optimum-ed ... It's a mandatory last step for me [inlove] Being an amateur in detailing, I swear by Duragloss & Optimum products since Day 1 as they are so easy to use and results shown are real awesome whether aesthetics or lasting protection one is looking for. I needn't look further for "greener pastures"... [bounce1] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intel Clutched October 25, 2011 Share October 25, 2011 (edited) Yo Benny lai lai support you. Here's my current and previous B&B car that used Duragloss / Optimum products. Below are my routine steps to maintain the wet wet look. External 1) Rinse(wet) the whole car with water 2) Wash car with Duragloss Car wash concentrated (#902) 3) Rinse off the shampoo 4) Clay bar with #902 as lubricant 5) Rinse the whole car again 6) Wipe dry 7) Use Duragloss Polish Cleaner (#101) 8) Use Duragloss Plastic Polish (#681) on my head lamp and tail lamp 9) Apply 2 layer of Enviroshield including headlamp and tail lamp 10) Rest for 30min allow Enviroshield to cure at the same time 11) Apply Duragloss Marine/RV Quick Detailer (#521) and wait 15min 12) Finish off with Duragloss Aquawax (#952) 13) Lastly apply Opti-Bond Tire Gel to my tires then stand 1 side admire the hard work Internal 1) Wipe down the leather seats 2) Clean with Duragloss Leather Shampoo (#441) 3) Wipe down with Duragloss Leather Conditioner (#221) All his products are great but the one I like most would be Duragloss Aquawax (#952). It produce a high gloss finish with minimal effort on clean paint. (Very good for lazy people, doesn't need much time to apply this) I always used this as the last step, its a great topper over any wax or sealant to enhance the glossiness. No matter which car you drive, Benny will recommend the right Duragloss / Optimum for you. Buy it try it and you be amaze.

Stiener 1st Gear November 13, 2011 Share November 13, 2011 I bought a 05 Honda Civic and found that the paint does not have any protection against bird droppings and rain water. As my car is parked in the open most of the time, I knew I need to take good care of the paintwork. Thats when I came across Duragloss and decided to give it a try. Here are the photos of my car. I wash my car on a weekly basis with the following steps and products. 1) Rinse the car with water to remove loose dirt particles. 2) Wash the car thoroughly with a microfiber sponge and shampoo. 3) Dry the car with the waffle weave drying cloth. 4) Apply a layer of Duragloss Paint Sealant. Let it haze for 15 min before wiping it off. (done once a month) 5) Apply a layer of Duragloss Aquawax for the wet look. 6) Clean the leather seats using Duragloss Leather Shampoo followed by Duragloss Leather Conditioner. (done bi-monthly) For quick touch up, I use the Duragloss Marine/RV Quick Detailer. After using the products, I find that the paint surface beads water nicely and water flows off easily. In the end, I find lesser water stains and bird droppings can be wiped off a lot easier. Looking forward to try out other great products from Duragloss.
