CarPro PERL, where do you use it?

[James]

How is the sheen for the interior? How long does it usually last? What do you dilute it to for interior?

I use a 1:2 ratio for the interior, has a slight sheen but I use sparingly - applied once every 3 weeks. If its too shiny, you can always dilute it some more. I only use distilled water, don't trust the tap!

Ok cool. Good point about diluting it more if needed.

I wonder if PERL have UV protectants in it?...

Yes it does

[GreatAvalon]

Yes it does

Proven? haha ok cool, I need to give it a try. I'm just afraid it will be too shiny and I won't be able to get rid of the sheen. That's why I haven't put much of anything on my interior so far.

PERL is my go to for the engine bay, I'll spray it on with my mini HVLP gun then blow any excess off with my air gun into a cotton towel I keep close to the nozzle, doing that really assists me in getting into all the nook and crannies and leaves a very nice finish, I usually go behind and do a final quick wipe down just to make sure everything has a smooth and even look.

I personally like the slight sheen, try a 1:5 ratio. I have to correct myself, i know Perl offers UV protection but as to your question of UV protectants in it, that I don't know. I'm sure Corey can answer that for us...

Even at 5:1 there has to be benefits to using PERL rather than running around with a naked interior. At least that makes sense to me. You're right, Corey probably knows.

I use PERL mainly @ 1:1 with distilled water for tires and engine compartment. I haven't tried using it for interior work yet. Maybe I will give 1:4 a try on my interior once and see how it looks and holds up.

Just used it for the first time on my tires. I was all set and dressed the tires- then I rolled the car forward a little bit to ensure even coverage. Went out to apply the second coat about 20 min later and I rolled it out of the shade and into the sun.... PERL 1:1 plus sun = too much gloss lol!
The other side in the shade looks fantastic.

I only use on tires and engines bay. I'm firm believer that you should never dress interiors and I only anti-static cleaner for interiors.
