View Full Version : Does Anyone Still Use Detail Sprays?

I have a few detail sprays but I find myself not reaching for those if I have a quick wipe down to do between washes.
With the waterless wash products now available, and the ability to get a detailer level concentration, it seems like the waterless wash has more lubricity and less chance of scratching during these quick touch ups. Maybe the detail sprays have a little more gloss built in.
Thoughts? What do you use for the quick touch ups between washes?

I really don't use them since RW/WW's can be made to do what the old detailer sprays once did[emoji6]

I have a bunch still left over that I’m probably never going to get rid of so I use them when I can

Agree with what others have posted here, I use RW/WW sprays now, but still have several leftovers. One I still use after a wash is Kenotech Showroom Shine.

I still do, oddly enough my favourite detail spray is Chemical Guys Speed spray.
Mind you, I don't keep it for my car, I keep it around for my dads car or one of my friends cars.
For my car, I keep a set series of products for it based on the fact that it's coated.
If I'm working on a guy that is non-coated, that's when the detail sprays come out.
Other wise I just stick to WW/RW products. My current favourite is McKee rinseless wash.

Can use them as drying aid. I was using Gyeon Quick Detailer as drying aid up until I detailed my car in April (it hasn’t been washed since) and it’s nice. Seemed to deliver similar slickness and gloss as Bead Maker but without being a dust magnet. Smells much nicer too, like coconuts.

I still like to use Griot's Speed Shine.
And Roger was right on in his post above. The sprays are great for door jambs, etc. And I also use them on my lawn equipment.

I usually have a rinseless wash mixed up for a quick detailer.
The Kenotech detailer that good? Maybe I should try it. Always wanted to try Wizards Mist n Shine too, but I like that the Kenotech states it has anti-static elements to repel dust. As I’ve mentioned before, I live off of a dirt road so any help in that aspect is appealing to me.

Speedshine is awesome but i find myself using Ech20 merlin style in it’s place. Not anywhere as slick tho....
I really like Megs Hybrid ceramic detailer but use more as after wash than inbetween detailer

I've been very happy with the Kenotech. It has a nice shine and the anti static properties are noticeable.

Pretty much only using QDs as drying aids these days. I still believe good QDs give more gloss/shine than the mixed WW/RW detailer, for the most part. My wife tends to compliment the look when I drying aid with QDs.
