Griots Speed Shine Question

**uhohitsstevo** · 04-14-2016, 05:06 PM

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):

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.
