DP Waterkess instead of Quick Detail?

[jbequer]

Ok, so i got some DP waterless wash and am i little confused.
I use it for washing, but should i continue to use a quick detailer when the car gets dusty or should i use the DP in place of the quick detailer? It's a black car so i want to eliminate swirls.

u can mix the dp as a qd

I was about to say you are probably OK to use a waterless wash UNTIL I saw where you have a black car. Black marrs sooooo dang easy. I would be scared to use a rinseless wash on a black car.

I have read that many people are pleased with the results on black.

What about the Qiuck Detail, is it better to use the DP instead of the QD for everyday use, like dusting?

ScottGT - I believe he is talking about DP Waterless Autowash, not DP4in1. The waterless wash obviously has more lubricants in it than a QD, making it better to use on dusty and dirty surfaces. However, you probably don't get the QD benefits. You could follow up with a QD after if you'd like. Using a QD on a dirty dirface is not a good idea. If you desire, you could mix the Waterless Autowash with a QD 50/50 to use as a cleaner and QD in one step -- but you won't want to use that on anything more than a light dust, IMO.
