DURAGLOSS CAR CARE PRODUCTS 902 CAR WASH CONCENT

One of the best car wash product I've ever used with my Autobrite Foam Lance ... best cleaning capabilities without deteriorating that wax or ceramic coating that is already on the car !! Great great product !!!

This concentrate is as good as any other product you can buy and better than most. If you use the recommended 1oz of concentrate to 1 gallon of water you can only fill a 5 gallon bucket up half way with water before the suds begin to overflow the bucket; and, the higher concentration mixture can leave more stubborn to remove soapy streaks if it prematurely dries on the vehicles surface which can occur sometimes during hot days on large vehicles like a full size truck. I found that by reducing the mixture by only using .5 oz of concentrate to one gallon of water that I get sufficient cleaning power and reduced streaking in those hard to reach areas that dry before I can get to them. I use 2 oz of concentrate mixed with approximately 4 to 4.5 gallons of water in a 5 gallon bucket using the 2 bucket method where one bucket is for rinsing my brush and one for washing which allows the soapy mixture to remain clean enough to allow 2 vehicle washes out of one bucket of mixture. The only time I have observed to need more than .5 oz of concentrate per gallon is if your vehicle grime would warrant it. If you wash your vehicle 2 or more times a month and the vehicles exterior hasn't been exposed to an unusual level of grime why use more product than necessary? Try the reduced mixture and you will see that it is more than sufficient for the majority of your needs, will save you money and extend your product life. As far as some of the reviews that claim an overwhelming cherry smell I would seriously question the validity of this claim. Maybe they had an irregular batch or a older formula but this at the minimum is potentially highly exaggerated even with the understanding that smell is very subjective. For those reviewers that claim the suds don't last long I would simply point out that foam on top of the mixture has nothing to do with the products performance. Also, it is important to realize if someone is using one bucket as the rinse and wash bucket it is easy to saturate the wash mixture in that bucket with sediment and other forms of road grime and contaminates in a matter of minutes which would dilute the concentrates ability to perform or visibly show what many people perceive to be an acceptable amount of sudsing when being used. Which is why it is best to use the 2 bucket method mentioned above. One for mixture and one for rinsing to keep the mixture as clean as possible. If the claims of low or poor suds and overwhelming smell were a real problem then ask your self why do so many reviewers say differently? I'm just trying to offer an explanation and an alternative perspective. While not disputing their alleged individual product experience, their individual experience does seems a little odd to me based on the overwhelming reviews from multiple sites that say differently that's all. What's not to like? It does a good job and it's reasonably priced. How can you go wrong? Buy it, try it, use it, enjoy it. You won't regret it.

Like all Duragloss products, you get a great product at a fair price. I have easily tried a dozen different car wash soaps and have not found anything better than DG 901/902. This soap is ultra slick to provide tremendous lubrication so you do not scratch your paint during washing. I recommend the two bucket wash method with this soap to ensure a safe wash. To do this you fill one bucket with clean water (no soap) and the other bucket with water and 2-3 ounces of DG 901 and place a grit guard in the bottom of each bucket:  The Grit Guard Insert (Red) - Fits 12 inch Diameter Bucket . Dip your clean wash mitt in the soapy water, wash a maximum of one panel, and then rinse the mitt in the bucket with water only. While rinsing you should vigorously shake the mitt in the water and tap it on the grit guard to release any dirt picked up while you were washing the panel. When your mitt is thoroughly rinsed, proceed with dipping your mitt in the soapy water and washing another panel. Repeat until the car is washed.For you foam gun users ( I am one of them) this soap is great. It foams just as well or better than chemical guys Honeydew snow foam for much less money and a better wash in my opinion. This really is a great soap that is gentle on your paint/wax while still providing a great wash. The Grit Guard Insert (Red) - Fits 12 inch Diameter Bucket

Never found a Better one that does not strip off wax or sealants from a clear coat and remains potent in your washing bucket for 3 to 5 car washings... Good Stuff!

Have used it for years and it does a really good job!
