At one time, AG sold Clearkote products including Clearkote QuikShine. I purchased a bottle of the QS on sale before AG stopped selling the product line.

I absolutely love QS. It is by far my favorite QD product. I'm nearing the end of the bottle and I'm curious what everyone recommends as an alternative. I know I can purchase QS from another retailer, but since I love AG so much, does anyone have a recommendation as a replacement?

As some background, I have tried these QD products:

PB Spray & Gloss (QS is better IMO)
Meg's Quick Detailer (QS is better IMO)
Pinnacle Crystal Mist (I think QS is slightly better or on par, but way cheaper)

Thanks, I look forward to the responses.
 
There is an alternative alright........

BRING BACK CLEARKOTE!!!!!!!!!!

That would be my pick, I like FK a little better than CG SQD but for the price I go CG.
 
Clearkote QuikShine and fk1 425 are the two best IMO
 
Dont use QD's that much, but I really like DG #921. In between washes I use Pinnacle Souveran Spray and I love that stuff!
 
Finish Kare 425 is my favorite. No streaks on any colors, and it's antistatic properties keep your car with less dust sticking to it.
 
Z8, 425 and Quikshine are the best of the best. Unfortunately none are here any longer. Souveran Spray Wax rocks but quite expensive for weekly use and thus would be my choice at AG currently.

Killr, I'm surprised you didn't mention the new UQD found right here at AG:D

I like how it beaded on the un-prepped rental car. And it looks darn sharp and reflective on blacks. But it is missing something, just like AW in my opinion, that Z8, Quickshine, 425, and Souveran offer. I call it "pop" or "pizzaz" !!
 
I love meg's UQD, easy application, never streaked for me, and leaves a great shine IMO. I would recomend at least giving it a try, since it is pretty cheap.

Although I dont have much to compare it to as I am pretty new to detailing.
 
Here's one that someone needs to review. I'll bet it's darn good. Dp Final Gloss Quick Detailer. I'm still working on my Quickshine & CM.
 
Souveran spray wax is very good! But, it is too expensive for twice a week washing. You cant let it get wet for at least 6h. Sometimes in Orlando that is a problem. I save it for special occasions. :D

I have never tryed DP final gloss, everything else I have used from DP has been great. Why not the QD?
 
The DP QD is a good idea to try. I agree with others, the DP products are great. The only one that I have not liked so much is the carpet cleaner. It works great but has a very strong chemical smell. Other than that one, all other DP products I've used are stellar.
