    I ordered both because I heard good things about both of them and couldn't decide. From user experience, which one has better durability in daily driver, non-precipitation conditions?

    I would say Quickshine by a slight edge, QS cleans a little better as well, S&G seems more like an really good gloss enchancer as I had to rub harder with a micro and it to remove some spots, prints etc compared to others. Duragloss Fast Clean and SHine is top notch as well, been using it more the Quickshine latley.

    i wouldn't consider any of those products for durability or protection really...they are a QD for cleaning light contaminants off of the paint. for durability, use one of the products you are asking about and then follow with a nice spray product like AW, Z8, or UPPS.

    Quikshine will bead for a couple weeks but that doesn't necessarily mean it really protects for a couple of weeks. Great product for renewing gloss and slickness on already waxed/sealed paint.

    I should have prefaced my question better. I have already clayed and sealed my car. The sealant is still beading wonderful (it has only been 2 weeks since I sealed it). I just want to slick it up on wednesday and wondering which one will still look better over the weekend (going out of town).

    While Quickshine is the only QD that I have used, I can honestly say that it's a great product. Works great in cleaning up light stuff as well as polish residue. Really enhances and rejuvinates the wax/sealant as well.
