Aquawax ..The next level - 09-17-2007, 02:28 PM

I have been using AW the last 2 months and love it. I came home from a weekend trip to my Murano which was parked outside. The car was dusty, I went over the entire car with the California duster, used PB SW then applied AW. The car looked great as usual.

Then I tried something new. I went over the entire vehicle buffing with a clean, dry, soft wool wash mitt and hand buffed the AW. I really feel the step increases the shine noticably. The reflection looks very wet after this step. Anyone else try this?

Love it!

Be careful, as too much is counterproductive. You are only supposed to apply it once a month.

If you want to save some time and work you can do what I do when I go to car show.
I have a spray bottle that I have a mixture of 70% Fast Clean & shine and 30% AW cleans and add protection at the same time and this combo leaves awesome gloss.

i just received my order of fc&s (gallon) and tried it i'm amazed with the gloss, when you think it can'y get better, it does. the duragloss products are excellent i recommend them to everybody, their ease of use, and the finish is outstanding.

If you think the FC&S is good....try the Marine Detailer...I think the product is 521....DG said its a ramped up version of 921 ..its slicker and glossier...and a little stronger cleaner....

Well if you ever see it in a store pick up a bottle and try it ...lol...you will see a difference....I have 2 gallons of FC&S now..after I tried the Marine Detailer I was surprised....I called DG and talked to them about the Marine products...and was told they were designed for both salt and fresh water endurance...I ordered a gallon of the Marine detailer also....there are a ton of reviews on other forums also on it...it far surpasses the FC&S as far as shine cleaning and slickness....I bought some othe marine products also...and they all perform very well ....

I even use a mix of AW and the Marine detailer for a after wash wipe down...But I use the Marine straight for light cleaning between washes.....and AW every 5-6 weeks......

try some..you be the judge....
