proper way to use meguires quick detailer?
hey, quick question. i have a black teg and EVERYTHING shows up on it, so i am gonna start to use the meguires quick detailer more often (with summer comming around)....so i started using it one day and this is what i have: a bunch of new white cotton terry cloth towels..and the absorber. what i have been doing is spraying the quick detailer, smearing it quick with the cotton towel, and then wiping it off (back and forth a few times) with the absorber. the cotton towels leave a lot of lint, but the absorber takes care of it, but its still kind of annoying. maybe im using the wrong kinda towels or soemthing, but how SHOULD i be doing this, exactly...step by step? and also it seems to take me a long time to do it..how long should it take? sometimes, i guess i dont wipe it of fgood enough, but it leaves a whiteish nasty lookin residu, but again, i think thats from not wiping it off before it dried. thanks guys.

As for using the quick detailer you should spray a mist on then wipe with a towel and then buff it out with a clean towel or a different part of the same towel. I use this stuff and can do the whole car in about 20 minutes. I do it this same way and it comes out looking great.

microfibre cloths are awesome, will pick up all dust and dirt, great for buffing. I hate that quick detailer stuff, it's almost easier to just wax the car. Just buff it after a good wash

the reason why you would strip the wax once a year is to get all of the stuff off of your paint that you have missed and waxed over through out the year. so you can use dawn everyonce in a while or atleast i do and i only do it when i have a whole free day to myself and my car so that i can wax it back up right.
