No Rinse Wash Soaps

[Scottwax]

Thanks for the heads up. On a side note, is there any particular reason why you prefer DP over ONR? ONR satisfies both your requirements, but is also cheaper (based on their dilution rates)...Of course, if DP performs much better then I'll purchase it instead.

Personally, I don't see how it could be measurably better than ONR.



BTW, I detailed a couple vehicles today and the owner said he'd never seen them shine like that after only washing them-and I used ONR.

Well autogeek have released four in one now as well

I can't see how these lubricants in their product can prevent dirt from scratching when you use it on a dusty-dirty car and god forbid a muddy one



Those that have tried any of these

Do they harm sealants or waxes and what about slickness retention or enhancement



I'll be sticking with Einszett and Werkstatt shampoo's

The slickness after I wash is not affected much, if any. I mix in 2oz of S&G with my QEW mixture, so it's like QDing while washing. I'd assume that the wax/sealant is not affected at all.

SVR-Optimum's No Rinse improves slickness, plus it contains polymers that seem to extend the life of the wax.



This is what QEW is capable of cleaning without marring or scratching and Optimum's cleans at least as well.

Impressive.

Obviously the technology for semi waterless washes is here

must be bloody amazing lubricants to not scratch it

Did some reading on autogeek and seems possible to be safe and I have an idea



My current shampoo mix is Einszett perls, Werkstatt Auto Body and 1Z raindance

(ran out of exclusive glanz)

If I added that mix to both shampoo buckets then 4 litres of purified water (as I've done for about a year)

Then add 1 ounce or two of Opt No Rinse or DP's 4 in one and finish with 6 more litres of warm tap water, that hopefully would make an ultra slick high lubricants traditional wash (I'll stick to that style for now) that is low-medium suds just how I like it



To dry I will spray my acrylic QD recipe onto a panel then dry it with my Pakshak WW's



Man it's so hard to keep up with all these new products
