Detail Spray
I got turned on to this stuff last summer and it does put a nice shine on the ride but I wonder if it builds up over time and if you can use it too much.
What say you oh wise detailing sages of the barn? Do you like the stuff and how often do you use it?

I use Mother's Showtime, and never noticed any buildup. I always keep a bottle or two in the trunk, in case I or someone else needs some. It is good for a quick job, but since mine is a daily driver, I still try to use good old soap and water at least once a week to clean it.

I use Adams spray too. Dam, that stuff smells great! But I keep the Maguires for the Lincoln, quick touch ups on Sneaks, and clay bar lube.

Adams is good stuff. The man that owned my vette saw me at a car show and said you painted the car. No I just showed him my Adams products and he could was in shock. He is a car guy and his wife loves my car.
