To me, it seems counter-productive to wash and by utilizing the Opti-seal as a drying aid, removing previous applications of the Opti-seal. My intention is to leave whatever good protection is already on the paint (wax, sealant), wash off the debris and leave a nice finish (by virtue of...

I called Solutions Finish and I was given a bunch of tips: - wash down plastic with a 70-90% alcohol (can do a 50/50 mix with distilled water) - it should work quite well for the PP+EDPM plastic. It actually works by dissolving the impurities and additives in the plastic that have broken down...

I'm not ready to commit to the cost and inherent maintenance of a coating just yet.

So are you saying it'd be more wise to use ONRS + Opti-seal so as to avoid a counterproductive interaction? ...and a Spray wax afterwards might not be necessary for keeping up the integrity of the original wax?

Is the "wax" component of the ONRWW rendered at all redundant by the application of Opti-seal?

I'm honing my RW "kit" and projected initial process from reading. This assumes the vehicle has been pro-detailed/polished/waxed and this is the maintenance process: Rinseless liquid: McKee’s 37 N-914 or Optimum No Rinse Wash & Wax Optimum Opti-seal - Paint, rubber, plastic trim, wheels All...

what I was hoping to accomplish by using the ONRWW was to not have to chase it with a dedicated spray wax. I'm hoping I could just wash with the ONRWW, then dry with the Opti-seal and be done.

JK, awesome info! So given that, " textured raw plastic of a polypropylene mix, usually PP+EPDM", what product is designed to be effective at restoring it?

i'd show a picture of my actual bumper, but the forum nor app will upload them. I get a upload failure =\

I appreciate all the advice, really! I intend to clean the plastic with IPA and then try a test spot with the Solution Finish. I've noted the other methods and products suggested and will work my way through them until something works. Sent from my iPhone using Autogeekonline mobile app

I ordered 1oz of Solution Finish to try. I'll let you all know if that works out.

the intent is that I get the cars pro-detailed, polished, waxed and then I use the ONRWW on the whole car to maintain. I'd also like to know if I could work in the Opti-Seal on the ONRWW?

I'm putting together my kit for my first jump into the rinseless pool and I'm looking at the ONRWW and wondering whether or not it's fine to use on all the exterior glass?

I cleaned with the BlackFire APC that came with the Trim Restoration kit. It is smooth, non-porous plastic trim. Photo is of the type of plastic bumper/trim I'm dealing with. It's not from my car, but it's from the same type of car and is in the same type of worn condition. @ Eldorado2k, I'd...

I have one of those 2005 Subaru Forester's where the lower body panels and front and rear bumpers are unpainted plastic. They've faded quite a bit over the years and I tried the BFTTR on the top section of the rear bumper where the worst of the fading exists. Unfortunately, it didn't make any...

Sorry, I didn't fully understand what characterized an AIO. Thank you for the information! What I meant then was that I wondered whether or not the Opti-Seal or Wolfgang ETS could be used interchangeably for a multitude of surfaces without any issues and if one was particularly better than the...

What about keeping a spray bottle or small pump spray with you on the days you're going to hit the power washer? Preload the sprayer with some car wash soap. Have a mitt and power rinse, spray on the soap, mitt it and then rinse. Throw mitt in plastic bag and wash and dry when you get home...

From the descriptions, the WG ETS works on plastic parts/trim/rubber/metal and wheels. The OOS works on paint, plastic trim, wheels and I've read people have successfully used it on glass too. I'd like to know if anyone knows which of these can be an AIO for protecting the most amount of...

How does D101 compare to D108?

I'm investigating some options. Thank you all!
