Finale Quick Detailer Wax Infused Exterior Detailer

Yes, Finale can be utilised as a drying aid on any wet exterior surface, and the results are just as good as when it's used for immaculate finishing on a dry car. It's crucial to dry your car after the wet work on every detail because, unlike rainwater which is relatively pure, the tap water you've used to clean and rinse your vehicle, will always contain a percentage of mineral impurities that, if left to dry naturally, will be deposited on surfaces as watermarks. To help combat this we recommend using a super absorbent microfibre towel - such as our Aqua Deluxe, Aqua Deluxe XL and Silk Drying Towels - to soak up the water, rather than merely push it around the surface. Using a few spritzes of Finale as a quick drying aid has the dual effect of changing the way the surface water behaves, and slightly lubricates your towel to help it glide more smoothly across surfaces, offering a useful extra defence against the risk of slightly abrading paint surfaces or previously applied protection layers. Because Finale is infused with T1 grade carnauba, the same type of top-quality Brazilian wax you'll find in our Signature Hard Waxes, it is extremely water repellent, so you'll see that, even with a small amount, the water behaviour immediately changes as the hydrophobic wax hits the surface. Basically, this helps to stop the water clinging to the surface, allowing it to run away more freely. This will also cause the water to bead slightly, which makes it easier to mop up using your drying towel. Simply spritz on your Finale once you've completed the cleaning and rinsing stages, and then use your drying towel to absorb the water as normal - the professional way to a streak and smear-free finish.

Although Finale can be used with any clean microfibre, as with any detailing process, the tools for getting the very best results depends on the job in hand.  That said, when not being used as a drying aid, or added to clean water in a Detailing Bucket for a limited water wash, Finale Quick Detailer is intended as a final finishing product, utilised in the very last stage of your detail to perfect the surface, removing stray marks and getting the best results from the work you've already put in. For this reason - particularly on paintwork and vinyl - it makes sense to use the softest, most sensitive cloth available, one suited more towards finishing than cleaning tasks or removing wax/coating residues, to eliminate any risk of inflicting any accidental abrasions to your protection layers right at the end of your detail. Our Primo Plush Microfibre and Ultra Plush Microfibre are professional finishing cloths that are not only super soft, but their high GSM material (800GSM and 600GSM) also ensure that they're super absorbent, making them particularly ideal for soaking up the excess when using finishing sprays. These are also large (600x400mm and 400x400mm) finishing cloths, allowing you to get more fresh surface area for buffing as you fold and refold your cloth around the vehicle, to reveal a new, dry portion for every panel.
