"Quik Detailer" type product concentrate?

Tried searching for this, no luck.

I have been going through a lot of my Mequiars "Quik Detailer" lately with claybaring and keeping my car clean between washes. My question is this: does anyone sell a concentrate of a QD type of product, because buying the 16oz Meguiars is getting expensive!

I think the closest thing is ONR

There are certainly plenty of QD's available in gallons which should be at a more favorable unit price than buying the 16oz bottles.

Re: "Quik Detailer" type product concentrate?

I like ONR as well and that was my first thought, but if you haven't tried 425 it's well worth a shot. Not a concentrate, but it does come in gallons. I definitely like it better than Megs for most purposes.

Re: "Quik Detailer" type product concentrate?

keep the megs bottle though, no better bottle on the market IMO - just rinse it out really well and fill it with whatever you need....

Re: "Quik Detailer" type product concentrate?

Would using the ONR as a final wipedown be better than using a IPA mix? I'm running low on my QD and was thinking of using ONR as my QD and final wipedown. Would it remove the LSP on the car?

Nope. I'd recommend IPA or Prepsol.

You lost me...the purpose of a QD and an IPA wipedown are completely different...aren't they? With a QD you want to preserve the LSP...with an IPA wipe you are trying to remove it...so how can you replace both with one product?

Quik Shine Gallon Size
This is concentrated and you mix water with it. It comes in a gallon container with a little bit of concentrate in the container. You fill the rest with water. This is great because it is a lot cheaper to ship than a full gallon.
