Best QD for EX-P.

My choice is either Crystal Mist or 4* Carnauba. They are both simple to use, neither streak on black, and they both shine like crazy.
 
1Z Lackfinish looks great and contains polymers. Adam's Detail Spray also really enhances the shine. I have not tried UGE yet.

Personally I prefer not to use carnuba QD with a polymer LSP...just in case I get a mad urge to throw another layer on, LOL. They look great.
 
Interesting you ask this question today...after unloading our shipment today, there was a box labeled "samples" from my chemist....in the box were a few new items....two of them happen to be QD's:eek the first one was the first sample of QD+ to be seen...it looks like a carnauba product and it's pretty slick and nice gloss on our initial trial over light dust on awd330's Beemer trunk....now the other one is an interesting product should we call it S&W + :rofl it cleans a little and makes the finish incredibley slick and shiny:naughty
 
just to clear some things up...

Antonio- are you wanting to be able to apply more coats of ex-p later on?

Anyone- is there really enough carnuba content in QD's to affect the bonding of another sealant application?

it would really depend on the sealant...EX probably wouldn't ...EX-P maybe?

skifreak122, I am not looking in to layering EX-P. I just want to know what NON-Carnuba QD would give me the best shine.
 
Just a note...I moved this thread into Main Street Forum from Poorboy's World Forum, since there are so many answers and so many different products that can be used as a QD on top of EX-P ...sorry for any confusion....:)

Sure! YOu would -- wouldn't you? Just when I got settled in with Adam's Detail Spray. :) Now I'm going to have to try that one out.
 
I like ClearKote QuikShine or Sonus Acrylix for my non carnauba QD's. Both a little pricey in the scheme of things, but worth the extra IMO.

I had a chance to play with a sample of S&W+ yesterday. Very nice product! It produces a similar look to a custom mixture that I use as my regular QD (3 parts S&W to 1 part Meg's Final Detail). However, it's far less prone to streaking than the Final Detail mix. Cleaning ability isn't quite as strong with my mixture, but it still seems to clean better than most other QD sprays I've tried. I will have to try adding a little S&W to S&W+ to see if I can increase it's cleaning ability without downgrading it's appearance. (Caution: Mad scientist at work. :D)
 
I am looking for qd to use over ex-p too. I am looking to toss a coat of EX-p
on my bike every 2-3 weeks. Will using a QD in between cause a bonding issue with layering EX-P. The bike is black, and I want to keep it looking as wet as possible.

I would stay away from any QD that contains carnauba. Adam's Detail Spray works great & smells great - it really brings the shine back.
 
I got some 4* uge coming in the mail soon. I could try it on
the black to see how it would look on top of ex-p. Or buy
some Adams QD.
