So I am very impressed with Collinite 476S. I drive black Porsche Cayman S 2-3 times per week (even in this weather) and I am very happy with 476S. Since I do not have my own garage, regular detailing is not an option, so longevity is a biggie to me.



Now after I wash the car, I like to use quick detailer while drying off the car.

I have used Pinnacle Crystal Myst, but it is darn expensive. Any other a bit less expensive Quick Detail sprays that are a bit cheaper and compatible with 476s?



Would Meguiers Final Inspection (#34) work?

You might try the Sonus Carnauba Spritz, it`s supposed to be very similar to Crystal Mist. Don`t forget to use your Autopia discount. Sonus Carnauba Spritz (http://www.autopia-carcare.com/son-210.html)

Well, Pinnacle and Sonus stuff looks like the same price. I want to get like a bulk size bottle (32oz or so) to save a bit.

Same price? The Pinnacle is $20 and the Sonus is $12. If you scroll down to the bottom of the CM page, you can get a gallon for the equivalent of $10 a bottle. IIRC, there was some talk about the Sonus QD`s being sold in bulk packaging, you might want to email them about that.

Have you tried Aquawax? It`s made to use the way you describe and a lot of folks around here like it.

Optimum No Rinse. You can use it to wash, clay lube and QD.

I like FK 425 and Griot`s SpeedShine a lot; Griot`s has a minute amount of carnuba iirc, but 425 gives just a bit better slickness ime. 425 will be the cheaper of the two...

OK, so no one likes the Meguiers #34?



I am looking for cleaning QD.



Also, where the heck do I buy FK products like 425?

Check out Duragloss Fast Clean n Shine. One of the best QDs out there for the $.

I like #34 but not for this (I only use it to remove polish residues when buffing). For a job like this I prefer QDs that leave something more substantial behind.



It`s tough to beat FK425 ( Finish Kare, Automotive, Marine, Aerospace, Mold Release Agents, Paint Contamination (http://www.fk1usa.com/) ), I really like that stuff. The Griot`s SpeedShine works very well on 476S too, and leaves a surprising amount of (I suppose it`s) wax behind. Both are available in gallons.



I have some others around, including QwikShine, but the above two are my go-to products for the after-wash QDing. If I had to choose I`d say to just get a gallon of the FK425 and never look back..it`s that good.



FWIW, I`ve been using them on the Blazer`s 476S after every wash, and it`s working out great even with the winter weather and some trips through the touchless (last coat of 476S was applied in early Sept.).
