Just a note!!! Pledge works excellent for removing bugs from the front of your vehicle ,thats right!! just spray it on the front of your car and let it sit for a few minutes and then wipe it off. The bugs will come right off with a little bit of rubbing. It will not harm the paint or plastic grill either . Motorcycle riders use this on their bikes for a long time . Try it once and you will see .

Been using pledge on my tires since the early 90s. I started using it on my 89 TransAm and found it works way better then any of the marketed tire wet products. I still use it to this day.. I spray it on the tires and just leave it, and then spray it on again the next day. It lasts for a week. I also use it on all the black trim, and on the inside dash and center console of my Ford Escape.. Again works way better then marketed armor all and has a nice lemon new car smell to it.. After having my Escspe for 2 years, I took it to the dealership for a small repair and they couldn’t believe how immaculate my truck looked! So I would say Yes I recommend it for professional detailing!

So i went to a car show and i asked a guy that had his car there, how do you keep your car so nice. He told me i'll tell you a little secret, we use dust free pledge on everything, windows inside and out, all the car, including the tires. I could not believe how nice my pickup looked inside and out. Everybody asked me how do you keep your pickup looking like it just came off the show room. I'd tell them, Dust Free Pledge, they'd lol

@ianburg9905 6 жыл бұрын

My main concern about using pledge or similar is the fact it has Naptha in it. That's a key component in jet fuel, plus the Butane etc. Longer term use will cause tyre (sorry, English spelling) surface degradation in the form of surface crazing (cracking). Yes, I know tyres do that overtime anyway but like any spirit based product applied to rubber, it will cause the crazing to happen much faster. Other than that it looks great and what a nice video. Oh, I'm a keen motorcycle detailer. Maybe a point of interest, using pledge on plastic surfaces on some bikes even causes the surface to craze eg on the surface of some motorcycle headlight lenses which have a plexiglass makeup. Not saying that it's not safe on the dash of cars though, but it does show how powerful the spirit side of it is. Anyhow just my experience with it.

@dallaspaintcorrectionautod8343 6 жыл бұрын

what about Naptha on the paint of the car (clear coat)...do you think it could hurt the clear coat which is a form of plastic?...most waxes and sealants are filled with Naptha and yet we wipe it all over most surfaces of the vehicle...my point is that Naptha is just about in all detailing products including high end pro products...hmmmmmm

@ianburg9905 6 жыл бұрын

Dallas Paint Correction & Auto Detailing - hi again. Yes some paint treatments/polishes have naptha in them or some other spirit. This is to make the product spread more easily and to stop the product from solidifying in it's container. It also serves some other functions. It evaporates of course as the product sets on the paint so exposure time is minimal. However, clear coat is resistant to naptha, petrol etc unless it is continually soaked in it. Rubber is not (not to be confused with neoprene, which is resistant). Essentially, anything with a spirit in it is harmful to rubber and that is a well known fact. Using Pledge in this way won't cause your tyres to exhibit damage overnight however. But degradation of the tyre wall is accelerated. Black boot polish has the same effect due to the spirit in it. Thanks again for your videos.
