Rinseless Washes - 2022

Only thing you can really do is power wash them till you don't see the dirt mixing with water anymore

When I have seen videos of detailers trying to clean them it seems to be leaves, grass, small twigs, and the bits and pieces that are the most difficult to remove

You should see the amount of dirt I washed out of the carpet wheel arch liners on that Honda earlier in the week. :wowwow:

I remember my old Mini Cooper and it was very satisfying seeing all that dirt come out of there

The wheel wells are carpet like and after crawling under the vehicle, almost the entire underbody has the carpet like material attached to a some stiff material.

I guess I could treat them like carpet...apc or carpet cleaner and a carpet brush although the area is very tight.

"Call 1-800-STEEMER, Stanley Steemer gets carpet cleaner!"

I'd never want to actually waste somebody's time like that but a Jackass-like video of somebody engaging them to clean the carpeted underside of a vehicle could be funny (and assuming they were appropriately compensated afterward).

More nooks and crannies than a Thomas' English muffin or crumpet for our overseas subs

I'd just try and maintain it the best I could, I've got no power washer so I'd think it would never be clean

I noticed this today on the ONR V5 bottle

A whitish substance on the cap threads

It’s a thick milky semi liquid about the consistency of dish detergent and a couple of white “boogers” that are thicker

I haven’t noticed this before now on any other version of ONR

I don’t use the cap for measuring product

Weird

A pressure washer rinse is all that is needed for felt lined wheel wells. Depending on how neglected they are, just keep rinsing them until you no longer see sand and debris dripping on the ground below.

Spraying soaps of any kind and using brushes is wasted product, effort and time. Its just not necessary because you can get them looking clean with just high pressure water.
 
Finally got around to trying DiY RW (original formulation). It may be the best I've ever used. It's been a while since I used something other than Ech20.

What I liked most about it: 1. cleans very well. 2. flashes and dries off very easy. 3. Leaves nothing behind.

Used it on the interior as well.

....being tempted by Labo RW system...must....re...sist.....

It's a great pure cleaner, you nailed it! When your out you'll love v2, unless you go another route for a pure cleaner like Griot's Garage RW or Feynlab

Would you mind sharing your thoughts on Total Remover when you get the chance.
I haven't tried it yet, but 9/10 people say it doesn't work. However I came across this video yesterday and he apparenlty got it to work. It has a pH of 3.2. So its an acidic product.

Actually the Bola in this video was pretty interesting.

Anytime I see a product like this example from Bola I immediately think of this classic product from P21s

On anything other than a freshly polished car, I would use this by hand as a final step before Klasse AIO and waxing with P21s Carnauba and it always left an amazing finish

Dodo Lime Prime is very similar if I am not mistaken

I love P21s Paintwork Cleanser. Stuff is awesome. Little hidden gem. I've used it to remove water spots from plastics, and glass.

Back in the day I loved P21s Paintwork Cleaner. I can remember using it by hand and when I purchased a Porter Cable DA I used it all the time.

Washed the car once...maybe twice...this year. Been awfully busy. I have about 4oz left of ONR which I plan to finish, but what's good these days in the rinseless world? Can someone recap this monster thread?

I keep seeing good things about DIY's v2 offering...

It really depends on what you want/need out of a RW
