Try 521, the marine version of 921...much better.
the marine version IME foams less but cleans better. I prefer the red stuff

thanks for clarifying that Al... I mentioned before that it was prewax cleaner.. I really thought it was cause of its cleaning ability. I guess its like a AIO right...Sorry for misleading some people.... anyhow...still didnt get to order some of my stuff.. i spent so much money on other things.. geesh

If you want to stay on a lite budget get AW..want to splurge get Z8....both fine products...

901 IS wax safe...its PH neutral as I was told and will not remove wax or sealants...it far from being a harsh soap....you want harsh soap get NXT...901 does not contain acids or alkalies like some soaps do...so its very mild on the LSP ..even wax....

Al
I remember it said its alkaline free and wont strip protection. When I used it, it felt pretty gentle on my hands. I have sensitive skin. How much soap u use per gal of water?

The Marine soap is a bit stronger cleaner..but less sudzy..but suds means nothing to me...look at ONR..no suds but cleans...its the chemical make up of the soap with surfactants and surfactants that entrap the dirt particles that counts...


Also I use 1- 1 1/2oz's per 2 1/2 gallons of water...thats a safe slick wash

So i placed an order last night with duragloss and got a few gallons. My question is how fast do they process orders, I live in NJ and was wondering if I had a chance of using this stuff by friday as my truck is desperate need of a detail.

I think Al's getting a kickback from the those boys running DG! They're probably wondering where the heck all this extra action is coming from.
