Also, I am honorary Asian, according to Mr. Kenchan.

I have been employed as a detailer before so Im no stranger but again Im no super pro either. Meguiars has never failed me. I have never even considered it being bad because its sold at Wal Mart.

I tried the Mother's California Gold QD and I found that it streaks a bit. I was a little disappointed, as the Meguiar's Ultimate QD did not. I'm pretty much ready to take it back to the store, but think I'll give it another try just to make sure I didn't over-spray the hood, if you will.

What QD do you all use?

I welcome all of Ken's Griots comments. Let the onslaught begin!

Just curious, but do you ever use it on your glass?

onzedge · 05-18-2011, 06:34 PM

I use Meguiars Ultimate QD. There's a technique to it. Use 2 microfibers -- one wet and one dry.
