💧 Garage Therapy QFR — Quick Finish Restorer
I’ve been testing QFR, Garage Therapy’s new Quick Finish Restorer, and this is a really interesting product.
QFR is designed for those annoying light water spots and mineral deposits that can be left behind after washing or from hard water. Its mildly acidic, demineralising formula helps deal with those deposits while restoring that clean, slick finish to the paintwork.
But what makes QFR interesting is that it doesn’t just clean.
Once applied, it leaves behind around 2–3 weeks of protection, adding gloss, hydrophobic behaviour and helping improve the surface’s self-cleaning ability.
It can also be used on glass, making it a really useful finishing product after the wash.
One important point though — QFR isn’t a dedicated heavy water-spot remover. If you’ve got severe or etched-in water spotting, you’ll need something more aggressive. This is about dealing with lighter mineral contamination while restoring and topping up the finish at the same time.
For me, it sits in a really interesting place in the Garage Therapy range — somewhere between a finishing product, a light demineraliser and a short-term protection topper.
Definitely one I’ll be using more of. 👌
