Diluting QD.

Do any of you guys dilute your QD? Mainly those who buy in bulk, I'd assume. The stuff I got at work seems too thick, as in it doesn't wipe easily and needs a lot of buffing to remove the residue. It doesn't say anything about diluting, but I was thinking adding some water might help a bit. Yay or nay?
 
What kind of QD do you have?



Personally, I've never heard of a QD being sold in a concentrated form. The only thing that comes to mind is ONR which can be diluted to QD strength, but unless I'm mistaken, I think that's it. Maybe what you are using isn't reacting well with your LSP?



I say that, because I recently used 1z "Lackfinish" over Souveran paste and it was grabby and smeared something awful. This was the first time using it in a while and the first time using it over Souveran. I had to use QS to clean it up. Never had that problem before with any QD/LSP combination, so I chalked it up to not liking the LSP.
 
the only QD I dilute is Z6-if it's extremely thick you can try to dilute it but you will decrease the lubrication qualities
 
It's Carbrite's Finish Shine Plus spray wax.



It's fine as it is when I use it for clay lube or to moisten my applicators, but sometimes after I finish prepping cars for delivery (yup, I'm at a dealership), they could use a wipedown 'cause of smudges and such, and it's way too thick to work efficiently.
 
Diluting is fine for FC&S, AW, Prima Slick and any others that do not have much or any protection in them



Driven's Quick spray is one I recommend as it has to be diluted to work and 473ml makes one gallon of this QD/Sealant spray/Paint brightener/Glass cleaner
 
Lackfinish raindance is sort of like a concentrate. It is best to dilute with purified RO Water
