Default Best Detailer Fluid Out There?

OK, I've tried Mothers, 3M, and Meguiars. I can't tell the difference, except Mothers smells good.

In fact, I'm beginning to wonder if DI water will work just as well. Any opinions?

Oh, yeah. Just saw where Dupont is marketing spray wax with teflon. About the same price as Detailer Fluid. Any opinions?

I've tried the Meguiars quick-detailer and the Zaino Z8. Between the two, the Meguiars is easier to apply/buff off, but the Zaino gives a deeper shine (and it smells good, too). Based on the difference in cost, I use the Meguiars. Z8 is expensive stuff.

I've always heard that pretty much any car care product with Teflon in it is a scam because in order for Teflon to bond to a surface, it requires a higher temperature than you can achieve on the surface of a car. I looked for the link I read explaining this, but I can't find it.

Zaino!! Just Zanioed my black rt10 and it looks great. Did the clay bar and each step with the system I bought what a difference it makes. I figure it is for the
Viper so I wanted the best cost was not a factor. Go to their website www.zainostore.com and check it out.

Pinnacle Crystal Mist Detailing Spray...there is no better.

It contains REAL Carnuba wax and gives the best in shine and durability.

The Zaino products are synthetic and water based, they work ok, but you cannot beat Pinnacle...trust me.

The product is called SLICK...and I can assure you that it is amazing. I even put it on after I wash the car because it is so awesome.

I have 6 coats of liquid glass on the 98 RT and I'm very happy with the depth and quality of the shine, at $20 bucks a can (2 cans so far) you can't beat the price or the ease of application. Just my 2 cents, keep the change. Heh Heh Heh

After using/trying the same products you listed, I bought some Meguiars NXT Quick Detailer this last time and now prefer it over the previous products.

You're all wrong. It's Adams detail spray as shown here.

It's the slickest stuff, comes off in one wipe with no residue or streaks and leaves the car super shiny. Smells great too.
