Testing:
I first cleaned the seats of the 2 week old Optimum Protectant Plus using Meg’s APC @ 10:1 and then following it up with Ultima Interior Shampoo Gel. I usually use UIGP but wanted the OPP for some reason the last time.
I then ran a tape line down the half a seat and dash section.
I then applied WG CTS to the test sections.
Just for my own curiosity I also applied UIGP to the other half of the seat and dash to see if there was any difference.

WG CTS vs. UIGP:

As you can see WG CTS leaves a little more glossy finish than the matte finish of UIGP. Personally I like the slightly glossier look for certain interiors and surfaces.



Pros:

1. Easy to Use
2. No Streaking
3. Nice Gloss that not over the top


Cons:

1. Price: It is slightly higher per ounce than UIGP
2. Chemical Scent


Questions:

1. Does it have the same durability as UIGP?
2. Can the Scent be changed?


Final Thought / Summary:
WG CTS is an easy to use interior sealant that is good for all your interior surfaces. Only time and future use will determine if the claim of dirt & dust repelling is true. WG CTS leaves a little more glossy finish than the matte finish of UIGP. Which on my seats I did like a little better. Sometimes UIGP’s matte look is almost a little white and hazy for me. If you are looking for a new interior trim sealant WG CTs might just be something to look into.
