^ That's how I use Mother's instant detailer. Smells like cinnamon, puts a nice shine over a good wax job. I just treat it like liquid wax and it keeps the wax intervals nice and long, with bugs and crap easy to remove.
I haven't used to many products from Mother's. Not saying they are not on par with other detailing produts, it's just that I have gallons upon gallons of Adam's products and their towels and brushes, etc.
If you have heard of or used Adam's Detail Spray, is Mother's instant detailer like that? If so then you can't go wrong.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong but the only product I have used and found to do what it states it will do is Adam's Quick Sealant ~ that product will really "slide" bugs off without making any swirls, etc. And as I said, let it dry for 60 seconds, wipe with M/F towel and instant shine.
This product from Mother's ~ so to remove bugs easy, do you just spray it on like a liquid wax, let dry and then wash the bugs off? The reason I ask is I have never used any product other than Quick Sealant where you have to use a water hose to get bugs off.
When I had my second 1500, I made a huge huge mistake. Came from out of town one night and traveled through swarms of bugs. Got home around 3:30 A.M. To tired to spray the bugs off. Next day I had to take the Jeep in for some work and then day after that something else came up. Long story short, it was quite a few days before I had a chance to clean all the bugs off. They had dried on all the chrome on the Grille and some on the hood. I soaked them suckers with numerous products, not wanting to scratch the chrome or paint.
After two days went by and working on them for a few hours a day, I got them all off. A lesson learned the hard way.
An interesting thing my friend tried. He owned a 2006 Dodge. Not the best of shape but the paint was still fairly good. He wanted to try something he had never done before, that being, letting the bugs remain on the entire front end of the truck and hood. Wanted to see how long it would take for the bugs to start rotting away and doing damage to the chrome/paint. He left them on for about half the summer and by doing that, collected more.
We both know what dried bugs can do to a clear coat. However, when he decided the bugs had been on long enough, it took him a couple of weeks to get them all off. This is the weird part. There was absolutely no damage to the chrome or the paint other than where he was pressing down to hard with a foam pad and M/Fiber towels. So the moral of the story is ~ some bugs apparently can damage a vehicle in short order and others a lot longer and then some do no damage at all.
Regardless, I am not about to let them stay on more than a day at the most.
Just a quick P.S. A friend of mine who has been detailing more years than I've been alive makes some video's for certain products from different companies and puts them on YouTube. He told me to never buy any products from Wal-Mart or any auto parts stores. Said that those were basically "left over seconds" from the manufacture. Told me to always order from an online company in order to get the "good stuff."
Additionally, different detailing companies sell a liquid detail spray or other products. Then you can go to another company and buy what they are selling with basically the same name, just worded differently. My point is a lot of detailing products are made by the same manufacture but the name that goes on the labels are just different.
Finally, I'm sure you have seen "Black Wax" for black cars being sold. If wax could talk, do you think it would tell you that it is ONLY for black vehicles? I used black wax on my white Rubicon and got a great shine and there was "no" black wax showing. Little tricks of the trade that a lot of guys never give a second thought to it.
Most expensive wax I've seen is made in Japan and was made by a request from a guy who lived to buy the best and most expensive vehicles made by man. He wanted a wax that was superior to any. Well a can of that, last time I checked was $895.00. Go figure lol
