jake91 Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 i was at autozone today, and i was looking at waxes, and i started wondering about those wax as you dry products. i was wondering have any of you used these, and what did you think of them.

THe_DeTAiL3R Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 They don't do a whole lot. If your car has nice paint and you have a good coat of wax on it, all it will do it help with the waterspots and leave a bit of a shine (it's got some sort of wax it in). I like to add some vinegar to a bucket of water when I ring out the chammois, that seems to work as well and is basically free. Using a quick detailer after you wash (when the car is dry) is always nice if you want to have the best finished look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake91 Posted March 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 thanks. yeah i wax my car once a month, and i wanted something for in between. plus we have very hard water out here. so it leaves bad waterspots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottster Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 I think all those quick sprays are more or less useless junk, and just present an opportunity to induce more scratches and swirls into your paint by rubbing it out again in an unnecessary step. Dry the car with some microfibres and be done with it. If the paint is properly cared for otherwise, that will be all it needs to look good.

THe_DeTAiL3R Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Quick detailer spray (not the greasy "as you dry" stuff) works great, and is nice to use after you are done waxing your car to get rid of any dust. I'm not that picky to use it after I wash... if my car isn't shiney enough then it's probably time for wax. Just make sure to dry it in the shade and you should be good.

MonteCarloChick Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 I LOVE my duster. I'd be lost in the summer without it. Especially with black paint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
