I called Duragloss about Mixing FC&S and AW

**black bart** · 09-25-2006, 05:36 PM

When I go to the shows I need to clean my car and make it shine in a short time period. I have 105 on the car and I have been mixing the FC&S with AW.
I have a bottle with a graduated scale on the side and I mix one third AW and two thirds FC&S. This is enough fast clean and shine to clean the car and the AW steps up the shine. I called Duragloss today and talked to BILL I wanted to know what I should do if I get enough AW on that it Begin`s to mute the color. He said that if that happens just use straight FC&S a few times and it will level out the AW. He said that they had never thought of that before but he thought that it was a good idea.. Bill is a chemist and he told me the two are compatible. He said just don`t mix 951 with 601 the bottle may blow up.
Anyone who is using DG products if you want to give your car a quick detail and really ramp up the shine give it a try.

good job- teaching the chemists a new trick

Bart,

I noticed the similarity between FC&S and AW the very first time I used them. (same scent). I believe that FC&S is a scaled-down version of AW with the lubricity added, so mixing them makes a lot of sense to save a step and time for a quick detail.

One thing I do when my car is not too dirty.....I wash with a foam gun, no wash mitt----then I dry using FC&S and a waffle-weave MF, and follow with a fast coat of AW. LOOKS GREAT~!

This is one reason that I`m not much into the amateur chemist thing.
Add to that the possibility of creating a mixture that can be dangerous to breathe.
Of course, the real concern is mixing up something that might be bad for the vehicles.

Nothing against those amateurish chemists,it`s good to experiment...but if you start mixing 601 with 951 and calling it 1552...man that ain`t right

Report back your experiment~!:smile

well ..I believe the chemist was joking..lol....he is a funny guy to speak to..always joking .....

I do not think it would really blow up..cause the polymer in the 105 is close to whats in AW I was told...

and I was just playing with Surfer....
