If you were driving cross country and could only take one of the above, which one would it be?
 
I prefer D114 but on a long trip I would take ONR because of the additional polymers it leaves behind.
 
Meguiar's D114:
It's been stated by Meguiar's that this
product: doesn't leave anything behind.

As such:
I must conclude that this also means that D114
leaves no "additional polymers" behind. :dblthumb2:

Or you could make it D115 or ONRWW to intentionally leave some polymers.
 
I'm looking for a versatile rinseless I could also use as a QD and clay lube. I plan on also using it to wash the bugs off the front end every couple days between its weekly wash and D156 wipe down.

Without a doubt
D114 is what you after ^^

Is that a bad thing? Polymers being left behind?

I'm going to take for granted that before you embark
on a trip over any great distance...that you will have
applied a dedicated LSP, of your liking, to the vehicle...
Correct?


I'll say that you probably chose that type of LSP (Wax,
Sealant, Coating, Hybrid) because of what you have
discerned to be its: "perceived and valued characteristics",
being that those are/could be: gloss/shine/beading/protection/longevity/slickness/other.

My question is:
Why use a product that is said to:
"leave something behind"...
something that will have the propensity to change the
aforementioned "characteristics" of the original LSP?


As to "additional polymers(?)":
-There are tens upon tens upon tens of thousands:
"polymers"...

Wolfgang Sealant 3.0 is my LSP of choice.

In that case, then:
I, for one, sure wouldn't want to change its characteristics.
I would use Meguiar's D114.

And:
Since it's an over-the-road trip:
My choice of its dilution ratio would be 1:128.

I would suggest trying both at some point and see the difference for yourself.
 
Well if you are gonna use d156 afterwards you may as well do a one step and use d115.
 
Hopefully the OP is now informed to the point where
a command decision against using products that will
change WDGPS 3.0's "characteristics"....during this
cross-country trip...is sure to be forthcoming.

If not:
All bets are off! :)

@FUNX650,

First off, I love Megs D114 and highly recommend.

Now that the question has been answered, may I dare high-jack the thread with a D114 question?

My LSP is usually Pinnacle Chrystal Mist, but sometimes my LSP may be Pinnacle Liquid Souveran.

Can I use D114 on my car that has already had LSP applied? Will I be removing it with the D114? After all the motto is It Leaves Nothing Behind...
