Its a decent rinseless. I really don't fine a lot of difference from DIY besides smell. They both foam some what.

I'm waiting on Labocosmetica's new rinseless with no sealants. 4.5L will last at least 3 years. I used rinsless for a lot of things. Ever a quick mop of my basement floor its seems to do ok.

I'm not chasing anymore dragons lol
 
Just finished using Idrosave cut 1:150 for a rinsless/hybrid.

I did quickly spray down the worst panels and used some Labocosmetica Alkaline rinsless product cut 5:1. It really helps on more stubborn dirt.

Car looks great

I did struggle with some polymer spots they call them but it still only took me 45 minutes to wash the car. You have to be more careful with idrosave IME. Just slowdown frankly and take you time and dry as you go. I get better at it everytime.

About the only sealants i have are on my bonnet. Infinity wax supergloss+ and a few panels i done with 3D speed. So its very interesting to see the water behavior - self cleaning hopefully, sharp beads can be a PITA, they can create watermarks. My car need some serious clay too in some areas. Still waiting on the hercules.

Update: Car looks great. I might just keep idrosave on the shelf for good and buy more when i'm finished the liter bottle. Now to see some rain!

For me it depends on how dirty the car is honestly. If its REALLY dirty its the sponge 100%, too easy to dunk & rinse and get back after it, even a half a section if you feel safer

The multiple towels is for "average" dirty cars and/or if you wanna change things up from time to time IMO

Thing is, with my new crystal clear buckets from ADS, using the sponge will REALLY show how much dirt you've pulled out of the car, VERY satisfying 🤌

Funny how we all are same but different. Really dirty equals many towels with one pass and moderate dirt equals sponge….

Here’s a new player in the Rinseless game. It appears to be surfactant based out of England.

I watched your video and that sprayer never seemed to mist

Brumping this mega -Less- Thread

Car - clean from a wash
Did take it for a short sprint
It did come back with minor road dusting and some mild signs of road film on the lower panels + back hatch
Typical SUV Vortex so it's a bit more dirtier in the back as usual

I've seen some recent video's of Ivan ......so decided to just try
One of the garage bays is filled up with parts....so I parked said car outside.
Impeding snowstorm on the way same day

I foamed with hand foamer and a heavy mix of N914
Some ran off, most stayed on the hydrophobic panels.
It was mildly misty before turning into snow.
Before snow started sticking, I would say there was about 20% foam still on the panels
We got about 2 feet of the white stuff after the fact.

Now fast forward 2 days later, where the snow has been removed off the panels can be seen in direct sun
Panels do look clean, cleaner than before I laid down the N914.
I can't say why the panels looked cleaner. Granted the N914 sure helped, but I'm mildly surprise the road film is not -as present- as well

what in Magic Encapsulation am I seeing. Hood and Roof did have a decent amount of snow on it prior to removal
Side's, about 12 inches or so.

As a comparison, one year, I tried a different touchless approach.
Car was much dirtier though and wasn't fresh from a wash.
I left it outside, in a 36 hr rainy Nor'Easter.
I HP rinsed it, in thinking the surface film/dirt would be soft due to it being bombarded with 36 hrs of rain.
HP rinse did not make a dent in the RTF at all
