Maybe one for Matt amongst others...

What do you guys use for a quick touch up of shineyness on the cars you're shooting...?

Any opinions on Clearkote Quik Shine, Poorboy’s Spray & Gloss, Prima Slick or Meguiars NXT?

Not a full treatment, just something easy (spray and wipe) that will lift a little grime and enhance shineyness.

Personally Hank I wouldn't recommend using any form of spray wipe on a body that has as you say a certain amount of "grime", wash it first. If it's just a light dust on clean paintwork then remove dust with a mop and then you can use a spray such as Megiuars mist spray and more importantly a really high quality polishing cloth, I use microfibre cloths which even with a spray mist of filtered water works a treat if the paintwork has a nice coat of wax.

Proof of the pudding, given a going over with a mist spray several times a day.

Yeah, the car has been washed and polished but by the time it gets anywhere it's picked up some crap, not dirty, just a little road muck maybe a smudge or fingerprints. Prima Slick seem to meet all the needs, just wondered if anyone has used it or similar, they must have done on here.
