Hello, does any1 add a liquid was to their own homemade brew of rinse free wash? I tried it and it got clumpy. I used a little mothers liquid carnauba. LOL still works but looks dirty in the bottle.
 
Try the meguiars rinse free express w carnauba, works pretty well
 
I've never mixed any liquid wax into my ONR. But, I like to follow up my ONR swipes with OCW (Optimum Car Wax) when drying.
 
I've never added liquid wax, but I add a splash of spray sealant (AW) to ONR all the time without issues. DG rinseless would make this unnecessary.
 
Unless you understand a bit of chemistry and actually know what is in the liquids in question, mixing is not a good idea. Whilst unlikely to cause a dangerous reaction, anything is possible. More likely is that you end up with a clumpy mess or that you might end up making a lot of work for yourself when it does something unusual on your paint. Of course, having mixed two products you will have likely gone against the basic rules of chemicals and express recommendations of the manufacturers and would have no recourse if something unforseen occurred.

In principle, it can be done and that is what is done by many manufacturers. However, all it takes is for any one of the thousands of potential ingredients to be incompatible with one of the others and the results are compromised. Without a lot more information, it is little more than pot luck what you get out the far side.
 
Mixing stuff not recommended. The manufacturers know what they're doing. Just buy a RW with carnauba already in it as it will be formulated correctly at the proper dilutions.

I'm still OK with this. If I didn't mix them in the bucket, I'd be mixing them on the panel if I used AW as I dried.
 
Duragloss rinseless wash already has Aqua wax infused into it already, which is why its my favorite RW on the market! (TW rinseless is pretty close though)
