post detail final spray recommendations

[dfoxengr]

The only product in this category ive used is valugard fast finish, which is fantastic...except i dont like that it separates after 6 to 8 months, which is a problem for me if i were to buy bulk.


Anyone have any other choices? It needs to be streak free, good on plastic, paint, rubber, etc...


Meguiars final touch a contender?

Optimum instant detailer and gloss enhancer is my current favorite.

I enjoy the wet effect that it leaves.


What are you wanting the spray to do?

I use ONR as a final touch up and detail spray.

This is by far my cheapest spray, but it isn`t a gloss enhancer

I would say v7 or z8 I have yet to find anything that tops either of them as a final detail spray.

Ive wanted to try v7, but its a bit more than $20/gal i think , ill look into it anyways.

Another V7 fan here

Does v7 darken black exterior plastics? Thats one of the best things about fast finish

Not a big fan of CG products, but recieved a free bottle of V7--very impressive on top of Poxy and a great drying aid--very slick and drys with`no streaking even in cold temps.

I use ONR Wash & Wax, so I see no need to use a detail spray.`

Sonax Brilliant Shine Detailer - you`ll be amazed by the water behaviour of that thing.

[bunkeroo26]

To me, it depends on what quality you want.

Like Scott, I use ONRww. I am looking into

CG speed shine because it is a wax free anti static

spray. I haven`t used this before, but it sounds

as if it would help dealer lots stay cleaner longer.

Clearkote Quikshine is still an excellent QD. Terrific gloss and slickness.`

The problem with V7 is it messes up beading. Either there is something in it that can harm wax or it leaves a sealant layer that just beads poorly. If you don`t mind that - it`s a great product.

There are a lot of great QDs out there. If your looking for something that gives super tight beading, I really like Sonax BSD or Wizard`s Mist & Shine. They win for beading.

If your just looking for something that doesn`t mess with beading Vic`s QD & Prima Slick are quite good. FK 425 is another very good one. Meg`s - meh.

Haven`t noticed this at all then again I`m using it as a drying aid over another sealant not a wax--seems to bead well in my case.

Seems like most are talking about performance on paint. How about trim, plastics, etc..thats what im most interested in

[bunkeroo26]

Sort of difficult, without knowing what features that you

want the spray to perform. Gloss, slicknesses, reflection, protection?
