klasse QD or car wash

ive seen that you can make your own klasse detail spray or add it to water as a washing solution



any tried any of those or any other uses



how did it turn out..and what ratio/method
 
I've been mixing KSG at a 1:4 - 1:6 ratio with water for a quick detailer for about 2 years now, with fantastic results.



The mixture isn't very slick, so I would only consider using it immediately after a wash (to add noticible shine, and an additional layer of protection). I definitely think that it would mar the surface to use this mixture on a dusty/dirty/driven car.



I use the wipe-on, wipe-off method, spraying a light mist (one spray per panel), then wiping across the whole panel, followed by a final wipe to remove all excess.



The great thing is that a $16 dollar bottle of KSG will last years when used in this way, and the total 'rejuvination' process takes only 5-10 minutes - with 'just detailed it' results.
 
AIO is water-soluble and diluting an ounce to 16 oz. of water for a quick cleaning detailing spray doesn't seem to strip SG.



I sometimes do a quicky AIO application if I want to start over from scratch by taking AIO undilted in a small spritzing spray bottle. First wash car and sheet most of the water off it with just a hose. There is no need to completely dry the car. Then take a mf wash mitt and spray the undiluted AIO onto the mitt and "rewash" the car using just the existing water on the car. Cleans it up real nice and AIO makes a great base for whatever you want to apply as your new LSP.



You can add a couple of capfuls of AIO to a gallon of water for a wash, but it will kill the soap suds. If you're going to try this, I would recommend doing it on a fairly clean car to start with.

This has my curiosity peaked, but I dont like SG as my LSP. I would assume that you could only do this over a EX-P type surface. I mean it wouldnt bond to a nuba, zaino or something else would it?

I have been doing the same thing except I use a 3 part distilled water to 1 part SG. My results have been very good as well.

You know, I hear all kinds of things about 'won't bond to this. . . can't use after that . . . '.



I come from a different school of thought. I try it. If it works for me, I don't concern myself with what the theorists propose.



I've seen people even here at Autopia explain why thinning SG and/or WOWO "can't" work. But I get results that I like, with a level of effort that I'm willing to expend (it's my daily driver, and I've got two kids into sports, scouts, etc.; so I don't have time to be neurotic about it).



Considering that I apply the 'mixture' after every wash, it really doesn't matter to me if I've compromized my LSP . . . I'm adding a new layer of LSP weekly.



My recommendation to you would be to make up a small amount of the mixture, and then see if it works for you.

Yes sir!! I like your thinking and I will do just that!
