    To be honest I use QD`s so much less now than I did say a year ago. For my car (just as you do) I do QD wipedown after every wash and only after a proper wash, even with a light dusting I wont take the chance on my black car.

    I used to use a QD after buffing off sealant on customers cars but no more, now its either nothing or a light mist of DI water to ensure no smearing.

    My QD`s have been used a lot for door jamb cleaning (lubricity helps) and other areas.

    One thing for sure they still come in handy when needed. ( Bird bombs, finger prints, etc ) I do recall when Meguiar`s first came out with it in the 80`s, it took me awhile to figure it out......:doh:

    You`re exactly right Angelo! I carry a QD in every vehicle just in case of a Bird bomb emergency!!!:biggrin::

    I remember when Meg.`s came out with the first QD... thought I`d never have to wash my car againancing Dot:

    I use it for this and that but a lot less than I used to. Mainly a clay lube. I also give my customers a small bottle of QD along with a good microfiber for bird incidents.

    I like Adam`s QD, seems to do a good job, priced right for a gallon and it has a pleasant scent. I`m going to try making a gallon of ONR up and using that for a QD. Anyone tried it for that?

    Haha.... I thought the same thing! Just spray and wipe right on the DIRT! What could be easier?!!!ancing Dot:

    Great idea! I may adopt that...(with your permission!):clap:

    ONR as a QD is excellent. I mix about one ounce with water in a 32oz spray bottle. (I don`t know if that`s the recommended ratio, but it seems to work well.)

    This is a very nice QD. Good for glass cleaning too! Smells good (like fresh laundry) and leaves a slick finish. Cheap too! Hard to find fault with ONR/QD!:biggrin::clap:

    I mixed up a quart of ONR at the higher lube strength for claying and had quite a bit left. I tried it as a `spray n wash` product on a bike that was dirtier than you`d use a QD on with great results. No marring even on Harley`s miserably soft Vivid Black! A very versatile product!
