So last week I answered the thread asking for beta testers of a new rinseless wash. I was selected for one of the testers. It came in yesterday. As soon as I got it, I remembered that in the thread there was some question of whether this was to be a public or private review........ So I sent a pm to Nick asking and asked some questions...

1. was this to be a public or private review
2. instructions on sample were vague, so is there anything else I need to know.
3. did they want me to use any specific wash media (ie individual towels or mitt)

His answers were simple...... Use what I wanted for wash media. No other instructions besides 1oz per 3 gallons of water. MAKE THE REVIEW PUBLIC.

Cool !!! I feel like James Bond when he was handed his license to kill, and his Beretta.... (for those that don't know or remember he had a Beretta at first and it was taken away for the ppk)

So here's the review.......

Product - Rinseless wash prototype V17

Label directions - dilute one ounce to 3 gallos of water

Color - Hot pink

Smell - Cherry Icee (MMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmm0

So, remembering Nick gave me my license to kill, I pulled car out of garage
83 degrees, partly sunny, partly cloudy + black plastic car. Well he said test it..........


I decided to use a dread mitt to get more solution on the car.

First swipe, I noticed this.

Now you have to understand, I did pretty large sections of a black car in FL and stop to pick up my camera take quite a few pics, then dry and this is what I get...

You also need to understand that I had to put my phone in the garage because when the sun came out, the phone got HOT, so to take the pics, I had to go back and get the phone. So the solution had plenty of time to bake on the car.

Considerations.....
Car is coated
Car has 18k on clock - 16k with coating
Car was dirty, dusty, water spotted from driving thru sprinklers last time it was out
83-85 degrees
UV index = high
Humidity 81%
Dew point 75 degrees

Some thoughts and observations.......

Troy asked if this was a coating enhancing wash. I'm thinking it could be, or it doesn't inhibit the properties of coating, as well as it acted as if it enhance. It also made my reload problems lot more noticeable to me. It cleaned, shined GREAT. No problem with streaks, shadows etc from doing it in sun, and on some spots I dried well, some just barely went over to leave some on and see how it acted.

Bottom line: I'm impressed
 
Looking good Ron! You're a brave man to try out a prototype on the Vette right before a car show... Looking forward to the official releases :)

Yep, thanks.

Figured I had time IF I had to re-wash the whole car at that point.

I may try and bring the bucket to the show and do my kids car. Gotta see how much stuff I'm bringing
 
Ron I love your Stingray! Plan on doing any mods to it if you haven't already?
 
Great review Ron. Wish my sample was here already. Not like I would be outside trying it with the flooding rains we are getting.
 
So last night when it cooled off, it got like a wax dew haze on it. SO it has something in it, what I dunno.....
 
There are so many really great rinse-less products already on the market. Unless this stuff does something the others don't...

So Nick,

Any idea how long a pre-mixed solution lasts, before going bad?
 
I know you said this week..... But I want this stuff.
