Ok Auto Geeks, I need recomendations. I just completed a paint job on a 72 Dino gts in FLY Yellow. It's completely shined up and on its way to Washington for a brief time before Concorso Italiano. I used the entire chemical guys v series and of course inspected it with my trusty spot light. The problem is now the builder and owner are afraid to touch it for the pre show wipe down. I need to fed ex them a high quality detailer or easy on and off polish, or both. Any kind of filling properties or "Cheaters" would be an added bonus. Maybe an above average detail spray with awesome shine characteristics that would help with any stray swirls(detail gods forbid)? Remember, it's fresh paint so no sealers or wax. Thanks in advance!
 
I don't know of any QDs that can hide swirls, but it sounds like your guy needs a waterless wash. That way he can wipe it down with some built in margin of safety.

I gave my non detailer friend some Pinnacle Waterless Wash and he quickly fell in love with it. So much so, he actually ordered his own supply from AG. The Pinnacle has some wax in it though. If your trying to avoid that, Ultima Waterless Wash and Blackfire Waterless Wash both work just as well. They both leave "something" behind (polymers), but won't hurt your paint.

If your looking to pick up a QD (I'm assuming your not comfortable with anything on hand - that is why you are asking), I would recommend Prima Slick. That is an awesome "idiot proof" QD that leaves a great shine and can handle some dirt or dust. Poor Boys Spray and Gloss is another one that comes to mind that is super easy to use.
 
Great advice ! I think we're on the same page. Non detailer idiot proof products is what I'm talking about. Also the waterless wash is a great recommendation as well. I've been told he hasn't wet washed any cars in his collection the entire time he's owned the cars so a high quality waterless is a great addition to the care package since I don't know what he's been using so far.
 
My car was painted last year & the painter told me not to use pressure washer & wax for 3 months , it depends on which paint was used & what the painter recommends here mate .
 
^well the car looks beautiful,

The car looks garaged kept, so great job

Off topic: I am wondering if a body shop safe wax would work?

(Idk In My Honest Opinion a car needs to be sealed, paint wise)
