I noticed Griots does not have a quick detailer like other popular brands. I was wondering if their speed shine is equivalent to a quick detailer or is it more of a waterless wash?

Speed Shine is a quick detailer...and a very good one.

Can I use it as a drying aid as well?

Wouldnt know why not. Call Griots, maybe they have a better recommendation.

Speed Shine is one of their best products, IMHO.

IMO:
No... Not really.

Griots Garage has their own version of a
Waterless Wash—and they've named it:
Griot's Garage Waterless Spray-On Car Wash

However...
(keeping in mind this minutiae regarding
the use of QDs as a Waterless Wash):


Note:
While spray detailers are first and foremost
positioned as products for removing light
dust, if used wet or heavy and with good
technique, that can substitute for a high
lubricity waterless wash.

Use your own judgment.

I just used it as a drying aid this afternoon on my Monsoon Grey S4. I keep a bottle of this in my trunk for touch ups that I bought at Advance because I was out of my normal Optimum QD. I like it though. Easy to use and looks great.

It'll be interesting to compare the new stuff versus Griots Ceramic 3 In One Wax

Strangely, it is maybe the only product I've tried from them that I haven't liked very much. I felt like it would streak more easily than I like.

I could have been the problem, though.

I am interested in seeing that too. I imagine it will be more lubricity less "wax". Not quite sure where it would fit into the routine in that case, though.

I've used 3 in 1 as a drying aid so I'm not sure how I feel about this new Speed Shine.

I love Speed Shine, it's the only thing I use as a clay lube. Mostly because it smells sooooo good haha
