    30+ bottles? Gosh, I haven't even used up my first bottle of the old version. I only use it when dusting off the interior. Since I'm only using it for that, is it worth it to get the new version or no?

      Yeah, somewhere around there. One of my customers has me come out and do all six of his daily driven cars twice a month or so for almolst the last year, and every member of the family requests that no dressing be applied to the interior, so i just use QID and they like that.

      Anyways, I would still get the new version. Use it to clean out your cupholders and center console more effectively. Seems to handle large amounts of dust a little better as well. Walmart has it for only $4, went there today and picked up two more bottles.

        Hey Nick, how much do you think you spend in products/chemicals per month and/or year? Just curious, as you do an awful lot of details. What are the products you go through the most of?

          I spend a lot of money and use up a lot of products for just being a one man show, probably not as much as other detailers on here though.

          I usually spend money on products I "need" and not so much "want". I do not buy any boutique line of products so that keeps the cost down.

          I probably spend anywhere from $250-$500 a month on products, tools and supplies, it just all depends what I am detailing, how busy I am, stocking up on D.As etc. It varies.

          I go through a lot of Deep Crystal Car Wash and NXT Generation Car Wash, a lot of All Season Dressing, M66 Quick Detailer, M20 Polymer Sealant, M40, Quik Interior Detailer, Hyperdressing, APC, and a lot of Aggressive and Mild detailing clay. I also use a lot of chrome polish in the summer on motorcycles, been using a lot of my Marine/RV line products as well.

            How do you buy your clay? Do you do a lot of ADS' 2 pack combo special? Clay gets expensive in a hurry.

              You know, I was just looking at ADS, and came across this: http://www.autodetailingsolutions.ne...-200-gram.html. Have you tried it? Looks like a good deal, thinking I might give it a try next time I order from ADS.

                I wont place an order just for that, only if I have to buy some D Line products I cannot get locally will I grab the clay special.

                Sometimes I take a drive down to Walmart and grab a Smooth Surface Clay kit, I use the Supreme Shines, A12, and Quik Detailer bottles to store LT 1:1 in anyways.

                I have a huge roll of dirty consumer line white clay I am saving, eventually I am gonna order the Blackfire Clay Bar Cleaner and Extender from PAC. I hear its supposed to really clean clay bars well. I tried soap and water and it did not clean it enough to where I feel comfortable using it on a car.

                  Havent tried it. I really like the Mild clay and the Aggressive clay. The white clay works well for something with mild contamination.

                    I wonder if it's more like the Smooth Surface clay. Could just try the 100 gram bar for $7.95. Worth a look I'd say.

                      Now that you found the 'spray' setting on the Mirror Glaze sprayer, how do you like it?

                      Personally, for a product like this, I'd prefer the original 'mister'.

                        The spray setting on the new bottle is pretty good but I still like the old sprayer head better for some reason.

                          Perhaps, like me, you prefer a 'mister' rather than a 'sprayer'.
