Corey said you can dilute Reload as needed.  Just wondering if anyone does this and uses it as a QD after washing?  If so...what's the dilute ratio you've found works, and what is the results?
 
<span style="color:#008000;">I have never done it.  But I know some have suggested and used 1:1 with distilled water especially for dark / black vehicles.  
 
Neat or 1:1 are the normal application ratios. I have been using it at 1:5 as a QD. I'm sure it's not the most cost efficient QD but I like it the best over many I have tried through the years. FYI my three vehicles range from a off white to a dark blue, and have experienced no streaking problems on any colors
 
I have used it straight a few times as drying aid during winter (for the extra gloss) but normally it is not cost effective so only when I'm feeling generous or bored of other QDs I have
 
MobileJay...the goal was just to have a QD version of Reload.  No concerns with cost or issues at full strength...I just assume that a diluted version would be better for QD and possible spread-out better too.  And yes, it would cut the cost, and yes for those with streaking issues there wouldn't be concern too.  Just wondering what ratio people have found "best" as a QD?
 
Oh okay, I see. A way to cut the cost (a little) and to make it easier to apply with no streaks, is to apply when vehicle is still wet. I will take two towels to dry. The first towel I will spray 2-3 sprays for first panel, dry the panel with the Reload towel, and then the second towel is used to dry and buff off Reload. After that, I use 1-2 sprays per panel and just work my way around the car. I use very little and I get no streaks. I am spraying onto the towel, not the actual vehicle.
