If you guys wash your car once a week, how often do you spray detail it in between? Do you always SD after you wash and dry?
 
i QD after a wash (alternate with spray wax) to help rid any leftover water spots or areas i might have missed while washing. it also helps to add a little protection as well...
 
If you use a spray wax, dont you already polish/buff your car? Put more protection on top of your LSP? So you do not QD in between the week after you wash?

So really what is the point of SD, I thought you spray it on when the car is not dirty and just has dust to maintain that shine between washes?
 
I very rarely SD.



I usually SD if I get a bird bomb, or if there is a light accumulation of dust on the car and I make sure I use a plush MF towel.

it's QD not SD



and that just "dust" might as well be sandpaper it's very abrasive



I use a QD to help "lube" during drying and to add a little "pop"



also there are a ton of threads about this subject if you would try a search
 
yes quick detail, hmmm interesting i always thought to do QD in between washes if it was just dust. I guess after I wash i will spray it down while still wet and just dry off that way.
 
My QD is ONR, which as instructed is diluted at a stronger ratio then for just a standard ONR wash. I have had no problems QD'ing a dusty or slightly dirty car with a heavy QD application and a plush MF.

I do the same thing. Use one plush microfiber to wipe the panel once, then buff with a different clean microfiber. Always use a new side to the cloth to wipe a new panel, and switch cloths when you run out of side. I haven't seen any new scratches with ONR as a QD.
 
I QD daily if only light dust. If a little dirty then ONR and FK425. I rarely do an ONR wash. I use ONR in a garden sprayer at QD strength and use 2 mf to wipe clean. When I need to do an ONR wash I use a leaf blower and wipe down with FK425.

so your car never gets dirty :)
 
No I do not do as you said. I just take care and add a little protection as well so that no more ditry things can grab the car
