got my box o stuff yesterday

Big difference from costco MF to quality MF. Returned my Costco ones
used a little speed shine and spray on car wash. Like them both

it will be a couple weeks of seeing the daily use, but a little quick detail I like.

Did not try the clay of wax yet.

I'm going to SEMA in Vegas next month and will pick up some more quality towels

Wow...12 times in 93000 miles? I think I washed my s2000 12 times last month, and that's with 0 miles driven (seriously.)

If you have limited access to wash station and want to avoid the do it your self places, I recommend Optimum No Rinse (ONR) This is a well known and used "waterless" wash system with detailers. You just need two 5 gallon pails with warm water and some towels and you can wash your car. It does a nice job and great for the winter washes. If you are looking for touch up in between washes a nice spray detailer does the trick.

Spray detailers should only be used as a touch up for light dust and water. If you have stuff caked or baked on a dedicated wash system is much better choice and reduces the chance of marring the finish on the car.

I personally like Prima Slick adds a nice glow to the car but I have also had good results with Mequiers Ultimate Quick Detailer and is an OTC detailer.

Prima Aqua? I have not heard of tha. Perhaps you mean Prima Hydro? That is their spray wax, which I agree is great for maintenance waxes to keep up the finish. But I don't know that I would use as a QD bcause that is not what it is for. If you are using it for that and think you are getting great results you need to try Prima Slick... Brings the finish depth and shine to a new level beyond just Hydro, I promise you that.
Yeah, I meant Prima Hydro. I don't really use a quick detailer in the sense of cleaning light dirt. I use it to take care of water spotting and to add to the gloss. I would rather just wash it than take the chance of dragging dirt across the paint.

When I clay I use meguires ultimate quick detailer.

I did pick up some Prima Bannana gloss, which has great results.

Well after a couple weeks I returned the Car wash detailer, it left residue.

Speed shine works great, the new MF speed shine towels are great 12" Sq
really thick and plush
