Anyone ever use duragloss 111? Just used it last night on my white SS and this morning it looked good. Sadly its drizzling now (quite angry lol, hope the roads are dry when I leave...) So I didn't get a good look at it in the sun. Last car I used it on looked great.

At least 30 minutes.

Tough! Feels like a never-ending stream of exams and work... but honestly loving life right now

Although, I haven't washed my car in 6 months...

Crazy to go from 2-4 times a week to hopefully a few times a year

What's new with you?

Funny story...

I was resealing my car last night and would check my phone periodically to respond to a text message. After some time I went back to my phone and the touch display started acting odd and not responding well. About five minutes later almost not responding at all..

I'm thinking, what the actual **** this piece of shit Apple product, and then I realized I had sealant residue all over my hands that transferred over to my phone and essentially sealed the phone...

Some dawn dish soap later it was working like normal, whoops...

Well that at least show you that the sealant is good. I haven't had much time to take care of the car. We are buying a home, moving, work.. Ahhh too many things.. She's kept pretty clean for almost three weeks no wash..

Ohh I forgot.. And notice my vinyl is getting stained/ruined again.. Its like water spots on it... Guess that vinyl cannot be left unclean for long periods of time.. Soooooooo I am very sad... But for now will have to wait until next year and do maybe a light polish with 205 to remove those swirls and other that will appear.. On a side note, love how the dirt was just rinsing off when I was spraying the car prior to washing.. For almost a whole month and very filthy car, my white wash mitt didn't even get dirty until I reached by the wheels and surrounding areas of the fenders.
