Which QD has not impressed you?

Care to elaborate, like ratio, etc.?? I have the WG and the DP Spray Shield so this interests me...

IIRC from reading on MOL, this is something intended for new car/used car prep with a rotary.

Yeah this came from a 3.78 litre container made in 1990

I contacted Mike Phillips and other meg`s people about it and they reckon it never came out in a thick cream, just a water liquid exactly same as current #66

As far as mixing ratios for WG and any other QD w/ protectant

50/50 or 25/75 (75% wolfgang) worked fine

Tonight I have some more formulations to mix up including a spray polish, ultimate QD with normal and spray type sealers and a wet look ultra slick wash

Almost perfected the wash

Finished a ultimate finishing polish and glaze and by machine works brilliantly, no dust and can work it for ages

My least favorite QD is Mothers Showtime. My favorite is Meguiar`s #34 Final Inspection.

**aaron33** · 02-08-2006, 07:08 AM

I didn`t like Final Inspection. It gave me streaking. Meg`s NXT Speed detailer was fine on the other hand. I think the QD streaking also depends on the temperature, humidity and whether you use a wax or a sealant.

I don`t know what it is but t smells just like the medicine and it was the nastiest tasting stuff in the world. It`s weird, and I used to use it all the time when I would buy Mothers clay.

Haha, I get the same thing when using Zaino Z6. It works well over Zaino, but it smells just like the cough syrup my mom used to try to cram down my throat when I was younger. Yuck.

Well, obviously you and Mike Phillips know more about this than I do, since I have never used #66, but I have used plenty of cleaner waxes and none of them have been a "water liquid", but can certainly believe that something evaporated between 1990 and now.

I hate NXT Speed Detailer. It`s streaky and requires a lot of wiping. It does look good on NXT wax (surprise!) but is so one dimensional in its use. Never thought that QDing was so much work.

Um....#66 is creamy, not watery. The name is misleading in the context of current QD`s. When it came out there was no such thing as a detail spray. On the other hand, #66 is a thick crean like any other polish. Maybe Mike P misunderstood you. :nixweiss

The trouble with negative childhood experiences is that it effects your perception for the rest of your life. :sadpace:

Showtime smells like "Big Red" chewing gum to me. :chuckle:
