    Does Anyone Still Use Detail Sprays?

    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.

    I typically use ADG wipeout diluted to a detail spray that works awesome. I do like speedshine and the McKee sio2 detail spray.

    Re: Does Anyone Still Use Detail Sprays?

    Up until recently I was using a detail spray, but lately I've been using n-914 diluted with distilled water and I have been very pleased with the results and price/convenience as I go through a lot.

    I keep my car freshly sealed, so protection isn't huge for me in a spray but I do top the 914 with Beadmaker every other wipedown or so.

    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?

    Not very often. Mostly when the sun is drying the car faster than me. Sometimes simply because I have a ton left.

    Ditto here. Ech2O has replaced QD's for the most part. Since most come concentrated and are diluted to your preference they are far more economical than QD's.

    I have to admit I did pick up some Elixr just to see what it was like. It performs just like Ech2O, but does provide a bit more gloss. I really use it more for entertainment than a real need since I already have a good WW in the cabinet.

    If I had to stick to just one product, I'd happily go with a WW and call it a day.
