Saw the TW Rinseless wash at WalMart and couldn't resist the curiosity factor, especially since no one here has tested it. First thing I did was to sniff the product. It smells similar to Optimum V2 but a bit less strong and it's also colored blue. The TW calls for 4 ounces to 2 gallons of water, that would indicate that it's a bit less concentrated than the Optimum but it also costs in the $7-$8 range for 33 ounces OTC vs the Optimum at $15-$20 per 32 ounces plus shipping, so cost is probably very similar in the end. As for results, I initially tried the TW Rinseless on my TA which has only been sprayed at the coin op a couple times since last year. The TW does the job well with decent cleaning ability but doesn't seem super slick. What impressed me most about the TW is that it dried spotless on the glass and my TA has lots of glass. Next I added a couple squirts of Z6 which increased the slickness(something I do even with the Optimum No Rinse). The end results were impressive. The original 2 gallons I mixed up was enough to 2 do vehicles, my fairly large TA and my smaller Miata. The last test was to clean the microfiber wash mitt. Simply rinsing the mitt with water wasn't sufficient to clean the mitt so I sprayed the mitt with wheel cleaner and sprayed it off thoroughly. It rinsed almost totally clean, it is a bit better than the Optimum V2 in that regard. Overall, for an OTC product, it did everything it claimed to do and can be easily improved with a couple squirts of your favorite detail spray.
