如果您像我一样,喜欢保持汽车清洁,那么您就会知道要保持最大的努力。
While you might have a routine car washing/detailing “cycle”, that doesn’t stop the weather, birds, or any other ‘force of nature’ (or man, in some cases) from deciding to get your paint dirty earlier than you might like.
You might clean your car on the Sunday, and then by Tuesday some bird has decided to do its business all over your nicely prepared paint finish.
What is a man (or woman) to do in this frustrating situation?
您可以表现得像真正的野蛮人,只需用水清理烂摊子,并在细节会议之间修饰汽车的油漆。
但是有一个更好的方法(或制造商likes to claim).
它被Meguiar's的“ Quik Deleder”称为“ Quik Deleder” - 特别是如上图所示的“雾和擦除”产品。
在此MeGuiar的Quik细节评论中,我将研究这种受欢迎的产品的优缺点,以帮助您确定在“快速简便”的修饰解决方案时,这是否是正确的选择。
目录
What Is It?
长话短说,Meguiar的Quik细节是您汽车的“现场清洁”产品。
您并不是要使用它来清洁整个汽车,也不是要替换常规的洗涤和打蜡方案。
What it is meant for is touching up your car’s finish between washes.
I have read of some people using Quik Detailer as a way of removing built-up dust between washes (and when I was testing it more thoroughly – as per some of the images in this review) it worked well for that purpose. For example, if you cleaned your car and then it rains when taking it out, you might want a quick and easy way of getting the inevitable dust buildup off until you have a chance to wash it again – Quik Detailer is ideal for that purpose.
Another use for Quik Detailer is as a lubricant for clay bar application. If you’ve ever tried to clay bar a car, then you’ll know that you need to use something to create a slippery surface the clay bar can glide over (in fact, without something like this you risk damaging the paintwork if you just rub the clay bar on to a dry surface).
How Much Does It Cost?
Meguiar’s Quik Detailer is “reasonably” priced.
It isn’t dirt cheap, but isn’t horrendously expensive either.
Meguiar’s offer a couple of other detailer spray products (Ultimate, and Hybrid Ceramic) which are about $10 and $20 more expensive respectively in my local currency. Quik Detailer in the red bottle is the ‘entry level’ product from the Meguiar’s range, it seems.
Here in New Zealand, it costs around $30-35 a bottle, depending on where you are buying from (bear in mind that is NZD, so in USD at the time of writing I could buy from my local big box auto store for around $22.50 USD).
If you know anything about New Zealand, you’ll know it’s a beautiful country but we get absolutelyhosedin terms of value for money – and car detailing products are typically much more expensive here than in the United States and other larger markets.
At the time of writing, you can score a 16oz bottle of this product for $6.99 USD on Meguiar’s official online store (https://www.meguiarsdirect.com/meguiars-quik-detailer-16oz.html) – which comes out to $10.50 in my local currency. So it’s basically 1/3 the price to buy this product in America!
One other thing to bear in mind is that Meguiar’s bundle Quik Detailer into a ‘Smooth Surface Clay Kit’ which also comes with a clay bar twin pack and microfibre buffing cloth. This costs $50 NZD ($33) at time of writing from my local retailer.
If you’re getting into car detailing and don’t yet have a clay bar product, then I’d suggest that ponying up the extra money from the ‘Smooth Surface Clay Kit’ is worth it … it seems like better value for money to me than buying Quik Detailer alone.
我实际上是这样可以买了一瓶Quik细节器的,如果您还没有粘土酒吧套件,这确实是一种更好的购买方式(因为这对于您的细节中的阿森纳来说是有用的)。
How Do You Use It?
老实说,Meguiar的Quik细节不太容易使用。
喷在您想要清洁的表面上,然后擦拭,然后抛光……这是您所能获得的“白痴证明”。
If I can use it and get good results, so can you – end of story.
有什么好的
- Easy to use & fast- 正如我上面提到的那样,这是一种非常防白痴的产品。买一瓶,等到您想在汽车上发现清洁的东西(或直到被灰尘覆盖,但由于时间限制而不想正确洗),然后喷洒,擦拭,然后再抛光。您可以通过此产品快速,轻松地改善汽车的完成。
- Effective – good results –我已经在几个不同的汽车/油漆表面/场景(根据本评论中的图像)上测试了该产品,并且结果通常对结果印象深刻。我发现它的斑点比单独的水要好得多,并且在将光泽和闪耀带到表面上做得很好。
- Multi-purpose –Not only is Quik Detailer a great “quick detailer”, you can also use it as a lubricant for clay bar usage. This amplifies the value of this product, making it even more appealing. I’m always a fan of products that you can use in multiple contexts, and this fits the bill nicely.
什么坏
- 不是最便宜的 -它比在水上喷洒更昂贵(显然),还有其他快速的细节产品,例如Turtle Wax快速,简易清洁和光泽;尽管定价似乎因地区而异。如果您的预算紧张,那么您可能想看看其他地方。MeGuiar的产品通常从来没有最负担得起的产品。
- Some have complained of hazing on the finish- 我本人并没有亲自注意到这个问题,但是其他一些评论家说,该产品在油漆上可能会有一些朦胧的饰面。这可能是它们使用的蜡或其他密封剂类型的人工制品;我无法复制它。但是,这是值得注意的。也许看看您是否可以先借一些朋友或家人,以检查其在您的汽车上的工作方式。
- 如果您要对很小的区域进行现场清洁,您可能只能使用水– Okay, a proper product like Quik Detailer will ultimately work better, but if you’re just an average car owner who wants to occasionally spot clean bird dirt etc, then it’s probably good enough just to use a sprayer bottle with some water and a microfibre cloth.
- 比您想象的更多的肘部刺痛 -If you’re just removing road dust, then Quik Detailer makes light work of the situation. However, I found that when trying to remove “aged” bird dirt (that I hadn’t spotted) as well as some dried, splattered bugs, I needed to apply more effort than I was expecting. I was hardly sweating by the end of the process, and some of this might also be due to the fact that I was testing on a paint surface that hadn’t been waxed in a while … but don’t assume that you can just melt away imperfections without applying some good old-fashioned elbow grease.
Meguiar’s Quik Detailer Review Conclusion
Overall, I’m a fan of Meguiar’s Quik Detailer.
我不会将其用作常规洗涤/清洁方案的替代品(相反,我建议使用类似MeGuiar的终极洗涤和蜡- 阅读我在该链接上的评论)。它也不是替代合适的汽车蜡/密封剂产品MeGuiar的终极液体蜡. If you’re the kind of person who is particular enough about their paintwork to use something like apaint coating thickness gauge,然后,您不太可能对该产品完全满意。
但是,作为在清洁之间“修饰”汽车油漆饰面的一种好方法,它确实非常好。只需喷洒并擦去,您就会发现很容易提出诸如鸟污垢或溅出的虫子之类的问题。太简单,太简单,太快了。
Meguiar的Quik细节也是物有所值的价值。虽然它不是市场上最便宜的产品,但价格合理 - 由于您不会一直使用它,因此应该持续使用。这不是您每隔几周就可以切碎的东西。正如我上面指出的那样,在“撕开新西兰”中,它的标准价格合理,在美国,价格约为1/3,因此不会破坏银行。
此外,它是“多目标”,例如您可以将其用作粘土棒细节的润滑剂(如上所述,购买Meguiar的粘土棒套件后,我得到了瓶子,我将在适当的时候进行评论)。
老实说,我没有尝试过任何竞争性的“修饰喷雾”产品 - 因此,如果您认为还有其他物有所值的物有所值,那么请在评论部分告诉我。但是,所有考虑的东西都非常喜欢这种产品,并将其推荐给其他汽车所有者,他们想要一种简单,负担得起的方法来快速修饰汽车上的油漆饰面。
我想在不久的将来尝试一些更高级的快速细节,但现在我很满足于消耗我的Quik细节供应。
