Best Cleaning Quick Detailer

**gtbaka** · 03-17-2006, 03:06 PM

I use Show Off, Crytal Mist, HGAS, Acrylic Glos as quick detailers. I`ve also tried Meg`s Quick Wax, and TW`s Express Wax among other stuff I don`t remember.

My favorite for cleaning properties, is Show Off, among the ones I have.

But I`m looking for the best QD strictly for cleaning properties. I guess that means one with the highest lubricity for minimizing micro marring. I could care less about how much it shines or looks, or it`s at the most secondary.

Any suggestions?

I`m thinking of making an Optimum No Rinse Wash/water dilution. But I`m open to any ready made QD`s that you`ve had excellent cleaning results with.

In my limited experience my choice would be Poorboys Spray and Wipe. I have used both QEW and the Optimum No Rinse in a QD type application and both seem to work but I prefer the Spray & Wipe. Downside of course is that the Spray & Wipe is a little more expensive.

I second the PB spray n wipe, great stuff.

:2thumbs: But you will get some shine from PB SnW.

CG Pro Detailer or PB S&W for sure

If you want a true QD that will add shine and slickness, try Clearkote`s Quikshine. It works well on even very dusty surfaces and light rain spots.

Poorboys Spray and Wipe (depending on the amout of dust etc) or CG Detail Spray/Spray Wax

I`ll be sure to try the PB and CK stuff. Where do you guys buy the CG Pro Detailer?

Thanks for the suggestions.

16oz. bottles at Danase.com (remember the forum discount too) and gallons at chemical-guys.com (without the hyphen). Danase will also be carrying gallons soon.

I really like FK 146...kinda like 425 with more cleaning properties.

Another vote for Poorboys Spray and Wipe. I use it pretty much every day.

S&W or QEW in a spray bottle.

I would say Spray & Wipe as well but I just used Zaino Z-6 and it was very effective in removing some light tree sap from my hood. Of course, I followed with Z-8 for some protection.

Another vote for S&W...I don`t use it as much anymore, but it was unbeatable when I had an apartment.

My thoughts exactly when it comes to a good cleaning QD. S&W and Z6 get my vote.
