    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 didDoes Anyone Still Use Detail Sprays?

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

    If you have that much leftover maybe use them for door jams, wheels after their cleaned and maybe exhaust tips and engine bays. There's always a use for somethingDoes Anyone Still Use Detail Sprays?

    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.

    AWESOME product, I have it as well. It's so much more than a "detail spray" though and ofcoarse you know what I mean since you have itDoes Anyone Still Use Detail Sprays?

    Re: Does Anyone Still Use Detail Sprays?

    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.
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.
