You can safely wash your car and leave a scratch-free finish virtually anywhere in 15 minutes or less! This high lubricity formula lubricates the finish while special polymers help to encapsulate dirt, dust, pollen, road grime and other air-borne pollution to safely remove them off the surface instead of grinding them into the paint.

With the addition of high-grade Carnauba Wax in Pinnacle’s advanced waterless wash formula you can maintain the show car finish Pinnacle polishes and waxes are known for while extending the protection that they provide.

Pros:
1. Nice Scent
2. Gentle Cleaning
3. Adds Gloss and Slickness.
​


Cons:
1. A Little lite on the cleaning ability for my taste
2. RTU bottle isn’t big enough for an entire car. I like to have 20-24oz normally.
​


Questions:
1. How much Nuba is added to the formula?
2. How long can PLCWW+C prolong the life of a nuba LSP?
​


Final Thought / Summary:
For the Nuba loving guys that wants a waterless wash the new Pinnacle Liquid Crystal Waterless Wash with Carnauba may be just what they are looking for. The mango scent is very nice and makes it a joy to use, and the gloss and slickness it leaves behind are nice as well. Although it is more expensive than other waterless washes in RTU form, I believe there is a place for the Pinnacle offering for those with “special” vehicle they truly like to pamper. Buying the concentrate also helps the pricing by quite a bit. I will be saving what I have left for summer when I am using Nuba LSP’s.

Thanks for the review. I have it but haven't used it yet. Bottle keeps looking at me begging for me to use it.
 
Nice review Troy, thanks for taking the time. I'm assuming you pre-soaked with UWW b/c you didn't have enough product to do both steps for the review?
 

Thanks Guys.

I could have done the entire side of the truck with the 16oz bottle with PLCWW but then I would have been totally out.

After watching Mikes (mjlinane) videos I have found that I much prefer and get better results by misting the surface and letting it dwell before coming through and spraying it down with waterless wash and then a wiping it off. I also am now using less waterless wash solution to get the same level of safe cleaning. Honestly I still prefer Rinseless washing better but I am really starting to get the hang of Waterless as well.
