If ABCDEF = QWERTY, then:
1 Q W E R T Y U I O P = A B C D E F G H I J
2 A S D F G H J K L = K L M N O P Q R S
3 Z X C V B N M = T U V W X Y Z
So RGXWSTLSQLITL becomes
DOUBLESLASHES.

$\begingroup$ I have a question. If I am beaten to an answer, would it be proper Puzzling SE etiquette to delete my answer? $\endgroup$– NL628Feb 18, 2018 at 19:17

2$\begingroup$ @NL628 You can, but you certainly aren't expected to. I've already upvoted your answer. In fact, having multiple good answers makes us more likely to hit the HNQ and make more rep out of this ;-) (not that I need it, but ...) $\endgroup$ Feb 18, 2018 at 19:18

1$\begingroup$ @NL628 Hey, I'm trying to get you more rep here! :-P I've already got two PSE answers on HNQs right now, so this one is probably just going to mean wasted upvotes anyway. $\endgroup$ Feb 18, 2018 at 19:21

4$\begingroup$ FWIW, I don't view an identical answers created within seconds of another as a duplicate that need deletion, and generally make it a point to upvote both of them. It's different when the answers are separated by hours or even days, though (often by someone new). $\endgroup$– PhylypFeb 19, 2018 at 0:30

The answer is:
DOUBLESLASHES
Because
Counting from the top of the keyboard, replace each letter with the correspondingly positioned letter in the alphabet.
