ONR video demo

[twitch]

Great video. It's always good to see the job being performed. Now I know that I am doing it ok and realize that I am at times entirely too "anal" with the method :laugh:



I do notice that Anthony mixed up a solution with double the amount of ONR that is called for in the instructions. He uses 1oz per gallon, the label calls for 1/2oz per gallon. I tend to put a little extra in myself, it just makes me feel better :chuckle:

Seems like alot of people are still more comfortable with the two bucket method. I used to use it till I realized that I was just wasting water/time. The one bucket method with onr cause no marring what-so-ever!

Same here. :bigups

I just found out there are 2 more videos showing dirtier cars made as well by Anthony. I will request his permission to post them here.

I have never used ONR being a newbie but it looks interesting. I live in Michigan and in the winter the roads are always loaded with salt. Could I wash my car that is covered in salt using ONR? Wouldn't the salt on the car scratch the paint when using ONR pretty badly? I am open to any suggestions because trying to keep a clean car in the winter in Michigan is a nightmare!

I live in Philadelphia and deal with salt as well. Best thing Ive found is to get a pressure pump sprayed and load it up with a car wash/water solution or a degreaser thats based on citrus products. Spray it liberally on the lower half of your car (where the salt will be,) then proceed to wash.

Nice vid, nasty looking bucket however.

Just keep in mind you would have to reapply your wax/sealant if you use the degreaser.

I have a feeling he made it for all of us here as at the beginning of the new videos he mentioned he was getting some flack for the clean Ferrari



The last video shows the best contrast between clean and dirty. And that was a pretty dirty car too. For those that want to see the video, at the top of the original video you'll see related videos.

Time to upgrade that bucket.

:grinno: no kidding, it looks like the ones they janitorial servicemen have been using for years with fungus and grime caked on the sides.

A N T H O N Y !! Thanks for taking the time to put this together. It will open the eyes of many.



Whether we like or not, lots of folks in the USA have mandatory water restrictions...this is a trend I see continuing and expanding. The ONR rinse and other like products should be familiar to all here as their application is only going to increase as time passes and more communties ban the use of a hose.

Ok, here are the 2 new videos by Anthony. I requested permission this time to post them and I think you can really see the difference ONR makes.

I was talking to Anthony about it and he said that the bucket is 6 years old. It looks grimy, but that bucket has been used exclusively for car washes. Just that it has recieved a good beating. He asked Santa for a new one.

How do you deal with german wheels using ONR? Do you spray them with a strong cleaner and then wash it off with ONR?

I found the black Shmitt to be a real miracle product in this case. I don't usually like it for traditional washes, but with a double strength ONR solution, it was a lifesaver for me. I used a dedicated towel for wheels and then hit them with AquaWax.

 

[Harry Houdini]

I use the black shmitt for wheelwells only, seems to harsh for my HRE wheels

with chrome lip. instead I use a normal sheepskin only for wheels.



I wonder how exactly it is done and as I have a BMW my self and the break dust

comes with the features of car :hairpull



The ONR I am really starting to love and it is a life saver in the snow winter days

where I will be washing inside the garage not outside.

Thanks for the info and the videos guys.



Edit: when he was washing the Porsche he said, " it is not a car I care for"

the car seems pretty dirty to me, the question is if he cares for it, how would you

approach such a panel without getting it swirled or hazing the clearcoat on it?

the reason I ask is because in the winter, most cars will look like this from the salt

and dirt on the roads

Nice "victim"....



Ok, after watching that, unless the car is really dirty, is there a point to still using the regular car washing method?

Harry - Change to Axis Deluxe Pads.



Pro & Cons on brake pad materials, etc but the slight tradeoff on the Axis Deluxe is a no brainer.





Mightytimmah - Black Schmitt . You must have some incredibly hard clearcoat.

I won't even touch the wheels with the black schmitt.

However, I LOVE it and use it exclusively on the wheelwells if not scrubbing the underside of the door footboards.

Not just water restrictions during droughts but many areas do not allow car wash water to reach the storm drains (but apparently all the crap that drips off cars and runs into the storm drains when it rains is okay...) so you either have to wash the car on your grass (which acts as a filter), or limit the water used to 2 gallons or less to prevent the wash water from getting to the storm drains.

Thanks for the info chefwong,

does anyone have info on the last part I mentioned? maybe you Scott?

I still use the single bucket method. They use mostly sand here and I still don't have any problems, although I might have to change out the bucket for new ONR mix about halfway through the wash.



If it makes you feel any better, just go to a coin-op wash and rinse your car off, then do the ONR wash as usual at home in your garage.
