In light of the great sale I would like to purchase a few items off my wishlist but find myself second-guessing myself on my items. My current item choices are Detailer's Waterless and Detailer's Wash & Gloss.

What is your favorite rinseless or waterless wash? Along with towels to accommodate the product?

The intended purpose will be cleaning off a normal amount of salt/grime over the winter time when a two bucket method is not feasible.

Overall, what is the best bang for your buck products in these categories?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
 
I've been useing ONR for a rinseless. I feel it works fine. I just bought the DP waterless on sale and will try it soon. I'm hoping to use the DP as a waterless wash as well as a QD. ONR is a great no rinse but I've been unhappy with it when mixed as a QD. Maybe it's just me but I don't like the fact it turns a dirty color gray after a few days after mixed as a QD. I know it is suppose to work the same but I can't get over the way it looks. I like the pretty blue.

@wantcarperfect by QD turning dirty gray in color is it in a bottle and or you using tap water - I had a slight issue using tap water then after going through forum read and switched to distilled water and it stays blue now. hope this helps
 
They may have reformulated it, my my experience with DP waterless is that it was no good. I like Pinnacle waterless & rinseless. UWW+ as well.

UWW+ for both. Best waterless and rinseless.

I use UWW+ as a presoak, but isn't it a bit expensive as a rinseless? Unless you can drop a yard for the gal. , you'll only get 16 3 gal. buckets from that $21 bottle of conc.

I have BF rinseless in my cart at the moment. Can't seem to find a whole lot written about it. Hope I'm making a good choice.

BF Rinseless is excellent.
 
I've tried BF waterless & rinseless, ONR original formula and Pinnacle WW w/carnauba - between those three I prefer the Pinnacle because it finishes out the best.
 
I use a few, ONR, UWW. Meg's RFEW and DG. All have their own benefits, but my favorite for colder temps is DG rinseless. It dries easier and quicker than the others I've tried.

Honestly, I haven't tried a BlackFire product that wasn't excellent. The reason I don't buy BF Rinseless is because I like the carnauba in Pinnacle and I like to use it with the Pinnacle waterless as a "system".

The Pinnacle waterless is much more cost effective than BF (1:32 vrs 1:5 IIR), but both are very good. But, the BF waterless is very good as well, just costs much more than Pinnacle due to the lower dilution ratio.

Interesting. But I prefer a rinseless W/O wax. I toss some AW into the bucket when I feel like it. Like right now as my fall detail approaches, I'm forgoing the extra kick.
 
I've been using ONR, since I stocked up on it when it was on BOGO a while ago.


You can use the 2 bucket method with ONR too. I recommend using a car wash (hand wand) to get the heavy dirt and grime from road salt off before doing an rinseless, especially if you don't use the 2 bucket method. If your garage has a drain and the room (mine has neither), you can hose off the worst of the grime that way.
 
DG rinseless is my rfavorite!

I liked BF and Pinnacle waterless but renewed the pinnacle because its a lot cheaper to use.
 
@215detailing. Thank you for the Tip. Yes I've used tap water but it is not hard. I even emailed Optimum Polymer Tech. They said this happens and it does not effect the product. They made no mention of useing distilled water. I will try distiled because ONR is a good product.
 
Turtle Wax RW is fine by me, is it the best? No , I'd have to say what a great bargain it is though.
I recommend buying two bottles, mix one bottle to a gallon on water as a QD and the other bottle is used or your mix,mix it with 2.5 gallons of water.
Spray a panel well then dip your soft, plush MF towel in the mixture of water and TWRW and gently wipe the dirt away then dry it well.
It will give you a clean and shiny finish for pennies per wash.
Find it at Wal Mart.
 
Ofcoarse I like TW rinseless but I wouldn't call it a bargain. I buy my rinseless washes by the gallon, sans TW because its not offered in that size but just to make the math easy, buying 4 TW's makes a little more than a gallon and the cost is $8.00 X's 4 plus tax, so its in the ballpark for price, although you can get in locally just about anywhere, so that aids in the price for sure.

Thanks guys for all your help. It is greatly appreciated and gives me something to think about before making an order.

Also, if you don't mind giving me your preference on the preferred towel for these methods that would be awesome. Thanks
