The just detailed look is just minutes away! Meguiar's Quik Detailer has often been called the Missing Link between washing and protecting. It's highly recommended for dealing with common environmental hazards that can harm your finish if allowed to remain between washes. In less that 10 minutes, you'll remove fresh contamination, enhance gloss and extend protection. In fact, it's so safe, you can use it every day! Simply mist it on and wipe it off using a clean 100% cotton towel. You won't need a bucket of water to enjoy a brilliant shine, day after day.

disturbingly flawed product
I like just about every Meguiar’s product I’ve ever used, except this one.
If there is a practical use for this stuff, I haven’t figured it out yet. If your newly waxed car has a little bit of dust or dirt on it, then you are mist a little of the Detailer onto a small area, and buff it off with a cotton cloth. This is supposed to save you the time and trouble of washing the car if it’s just a little dusty or maybe a bird hit it.
It didn’t work for me. You can’t really control where the spray goes, so it gets all over the place, including areas you have just cleaned and areas you won’t be able to clean for a few minutes. If you let it dry before buffing it off it leaves a gooey residue that’s not easy to remove. You can’t use it during warm weather because it dries too fast. The car will still look dirty after using it because it can’t clean in tight angles or in the spaces between parts like washing can. After using a few times, it leaves a sticky surface behind that holds dust. This is low-moisture cleaning, so if you live in a dry location all of that dry buffing is going to put a huge static charge on your car. Your clean car will turn into a dust magnet that will look dirty again in a few hours, even if you just leave it sitting in the garage.
This spray contains a lot of cheap perfume. The commercial says it gives your car that \"new car smell.\" It made my WRX reek... like a pack of lap dancers had been rubbing on it.
Meguiar’s Quik Detailer Mist & Wipe may be useful for the car show crowd, but I threw mine away. Save yourself some money and use a cloth dampened in water and a clean, dry towel instead

I don't know what to make of the post above, but...
I've actually had a very good experience with this product. I've gone through several bottles and have several more here waiting to be used (I found them at Costco lasttime in a pack of 4 for 10 bux)! This product is good for last minute details, or I've even wiped down my entire car with it, if it's not too dirty. Does not leave streaks (the stuff does dry in direct sunlight on your car, but you should detail in the shade anyways) and actually makes your car shine quite nicely, almost like it was just waxed. I've used it on the motorcycle and works well there, too. I'm going to keep using this product, like it.
