Evening everyone.

My sonax bsd is almost used up and I'm after some recommendations for some new quick detailer

I've used sonax for a while now and although not the slickest product around, the water beading is amazing So any new product will have to be as good as if not better then sonax


Thanks in advance !!!

Yer a fan of Sonax so stick with it, and Sonax BSD Isn't technically a quick detailer it's a silicone Sealant hence it's grabby l am sure the king of BSD mixes will be along soon

@Toonsoldier91 - Can't beat BSD as a QD TBH
Cheapest I can find it at the mo is £6.76 delivered using code WINTER12

Like @jassyo06 says I like mixing BSD with other QD's that I all ready have

The grumpy one is a bit easy to wind up on the BSD subject
If he'd only try it he'd know what all the fuss was about :D

This many people can't be wrong, can they ?

I posed the question 'Is Sonax BSD A Spray Sealent Or A QD?' on DW some time ago without any conclusive answers lol

Ye know what you can do with yer DW links........?? Lol
I have a totally different approach to detailing than you do mate BSD gets its overhyped rep mainly because its cheap as for beading not really interested it's a by product as far as I am concerned, my number one criteria is how the paint looks before you apply any product on top, that's where the real difference is
The highest gloss levels l have ever seen. .. was on young @MattSedg car after it had been machined polished and 3 coats of Gyeon Syncro applied on top.it looked as if it had been coated with Glass .... That's detailing

@jassyo06 - Fair comment my wee scotch friend :thumbs up:
If we all liked & did the same things it would be a pretty boring world IMO

& anyway Detailing is probably the most subjective thing I've come across in along time
Even more so than Brexit !

AuyoGlym Aqua wax also gives a good result, more of a Q.D. than a wax but good results.

Just seen this side of the forum. If I can add something to this thread, I use P&S bead maker, without doubt the best sealant I’ve used and lasts a while between washes.

Think most on here are getting confused by the definition of "Quick Detailer" over a "Spray on sealant".....As BSD and BM are both spray on sealants.......

I’ve actually been looking at getting this. I’ve heard it leaves a very slick finish. Unlike bsd

I’d like to see how the beading of the 2 compare

Bouncer's new one, Done and Dusted Si, thats the one i'm using at the moment and loving it.
I find it better to use on a dry panel rather than using it as a drying aid

Super super slick, gloss levels once it’s dried are through the roof and beads like nothing else I’ve seen. Longevity is also pretty good, not been washed in a few weeks done a lot of motorway and country lane driving in mud and the water just seems to bounce of it. No problematic water spotting just the remainder of the dust in the dirty water from the roads. One quick plast if the washer and it’s off.

Carbon Collective Hybrid topped with their Speciale detailer is good combo, will try & get some pictures of mine when I do it again
