    Re: Can DA help, speed up applying UQW?

    Shawn, thanks for the answer
    do you cover trim or class when you spray UQW?
    or you just spray it in narrow way then spread by MF all the way?

    Do you any video about you doing this? ;-)
    I check your site for resulting pictures - wow
    If I'll be even half way to your quality I'll be happy

      I don't use UQW on trim or glass.

      I just spray a light mist across the panel (move across the panel while pulling the trigger so the product isn't too heavy in any one spot) and then use a microfiber to spread it across (use light strokes...no pressure is necessary) and then turn the microfiber over and "buff" dry.

      You could also spray the product directly onto the microfiber and then spread it onto the paint. This is especially useful if the paint has any heat on it from being recently driven or being in any amount of sunlight.

      Thanks for the compliments

        that isn't my understanding of UQD.
        I use UQD to avoid washing my car - just to refresh small area without water from bird bombs or etc. I use UQD local - not for whole car.
        On UQW bottle directions - use after wash ... between waxing / sealant ...
        UQD is intended to be used on the ENTIRE car for a quick touch up, dust removal in between washings. If the car has a heavy coat of dust....use the California Duster first then UQD. I usually do the entire car 2-3 times a week with UQD. Faster than washing/waxing and leaves a great shine with hydrophobic results.

          My personal preference is to never use ANYTHING on the car once it has been driven.

          Too much risk is involved. I would rather just wash it again.

            I tend to work it this way. Mist it on a section. Work it in. Change m/f, then wipe it dry or "buff" if you will. Then go on to the next section.

            30 minutes is a tad too long. I would say 15 minutes tops.

              I'm not near as fast as you are - I'm not pro.
              It took me 1.5 hours to rinse,wash,rinse, dry, UQW

              so slow

                I like UQW on glass in place of Rain-x

                    In my post I was referring just to uqw a vehicle. Not the whole process as you outlined.

                    1.5 hours to do what you did is good time.
