Besides the levels of dilution and both being water based, is there really any difference between the two? I finally used HD on the engine, and it looks the same as WBD did. From what I hear, HD seems to be somewhat dust resistant? Just curious.

 

The main difference is dilutability. WBD is to be used at full strength (RTU - ready to use) out of the bottle but can be knocked down to 1:1 for a lower 'pop' shine (natural look). HD must be diluted and is not a RTU product. A gallon of HD at 4:1 will be approximately the same as WBD at 1:1...

So, with HD, you'll get 4 gallons (using 4:1) of dressing at a 'matte shine' whereas with WBD, you'll get 2 gallons (at 1:1)...

From a dust standpoint, I'm not sure... can't tell you that I noticed a significant difference.

I've used both -- while it's a personal opinion -- I'd take HD over WBD any day of the week...

BTW, f150online members --- look for a spiffy deal on HD very soon!

That's about what I figured. I bought WBD because it was cheaper, then HD went on sale later, blah blah blah. Guess I'll just be trying to use the WBD up and be done with it.
