As I said above, quick detailer is used for cleaning stuff, whether it's 1 day old water spots or polish during a detail, and shouldn't be associated with the word "application"... |
i agree, but not neccessarily. in most of the cars I work on, including mine, rarely need the last step you mentioned because most of my clients park their cars in garages or cover them with tarps after I'm done. I garage mine also, so the last step off polishing/wax is not needed if I've done it 2months ago. so in many cases for me, a "full detail" can stop at the QD'ing because I have the polishing done already. right now I'm just doing maintenance. the next time I use the polish/wax will be in June,, early August for a couple clients.
thanks for the input.
and somebody said something about "fading". I don't think Ajax has anything to do with that. that's most likely too much exposure to the sun. that'sll fade anything.
