Are you talking about their regular QD or the NXT QD (or should I say SD in that case )?

the classic red bottle QuikDetailer...
but it ended up that there was too much inside the bottle and the
liquid had no space inside to mix when shaken... the sweet smell
is back after i took some liquid out and was able to shake it up.

I love the fragrance of NXT QD.

What's the difference between them?

The NXT Speed Detailer, like the other NXT products, has ESP - no, not Extra-Sensory Perception , but Engineered Synthetic Polymers.

imho, that new NXT detailer is a POS. i don't like it at all... it almost
seems like it removes the NXT wax i got on the car.

i use it on my commuters when birds decide to let loose on my cars...
wish we can get diapers for all birds.

Not that it has anything to do with QD or SD, but I'd like to require those @#$! devil gravel trucks to where diapers!

There ought to be a law to stop those things from driving when there are very many other cars on the road...let's force them to drive between the hours of midnight and 4AM!

Hey, while we're at it, if we make all the birds fly at the same time, they can relieve themselves on the gravel trucks!
