Wanting to try Rinseless wash

I did my 1st waterless wash yesterday, used CG ECOsmart RU diluted 1:1 and 5 700gsm 75/25 16x16 double sided microfiber towels. I have nothing to compare it to since I've never used anything similar, but it looks really good and didn't take long at all. It was fairly dirty, but it's So Cal, so it wasn't mud or anything too crazy. Outside of needing a buttload of towels this might be my method for clients cars in the future. I'm going to be ordering maybe 2 dozen more of the towels.

I've never used these towels and they came out diiiiirty, so depending on how well they come clean in the washing machine (BF Microfiber cleaner) I might re-think the waterless route lol.
 
Duragloss rinseless is my favorite, ordering directly from them is CHEAP! If you wanna try it first check your local CarQuest and/or NAPA.

Does Carquest actually stock it? Their detailing area is quite dusty (meaning very little turnover) in the store here and it is next to the former corp HQ (got bought out).
 
I use ONR, ONR+WW, and DP rinseless wash and gloss. All of these are great. I have only washed my brand new truck 2 times in its first year of ownership. All the rest have been rinseless washes.

Use a microfiber chenille mitt, two buckets, and a good drying towel like MF madness, Carpro drying towels, or cobra.
 
Well for now I plan on trying a rinseless wash for the first time on my car. Since my car doesn't really get dirty, it just gets dusty so bringing out the foam gum every week almost seems unnecessary for my car at least.

Here is my plan of attack, I am trying to skip the whole 20 towels in a wash bucket method. I don't feel like doing laundry every week. lol

I pretty much have everything except ONR. I do have a bunch of those specific towels and I will just need to pick up some more wash mitts. (they are great by the way, you should try them, the towels)

What do you guys think?

Good grief!! Get a 5 gallon bucket at Lowes or Home Depot for a few dollars. they are the same size and mark off the gallon levels inside of the bucket with a marks-a-lot.

Yeah, I usually only use ONR, Ultima WW and then waffle weave dry on my own vehicles.
Hey nezff, trying to PM you but didn't go through. Just letting you know in case you didn't know it was full.... (Have a couple of questions for ya if you don't mind...)
 
I was hesitant to try rinse-less, so when the turtle wax product came out I gave it a try. Now I'm on to Duragloss or Ultima.

Both good products IMO
 
I prefer using the Microfiber Madness IncreediSponge over all other wash media I have ever tried with rinseless. IMO UWW+ as a rinseless or ONR are the best.

What is a Microfiber Madness IncrediSponge? I always use a sponge for rinseless washes. Does anyone have a pic of this sponge?
 
DP Rinse-Less Wash and Gloss works really well.

VERY well, I need to do my head-to-head w/ONR review at some point soon.

I went all over town looking for the rinseless wash and couldn't find any around here.
Ill just have to order online I guess.
Is shipping from Auto geek expensive if I want it in 3 days or less?

You won't find any in stores save Turtle Wax's product (in small amounts). I live in NC and the normal shipping gets stuff here in 2 days, I assume Texas would be 3 normally and 4 at worst. Worst case scenario, buy one bottle of the TW Rinseless locally if you have a job soon.

I don't like using microfiber towels to Rinseless Wash a vehicle. It uses too many nice microfiber towels and you have to wash them too often. I use a regular wash sponge and two buckets with grit guards. The sponge rinses out quick in the rinse bucket.

I do this too, but I still hate dragging 2 buckets out--feels like I'm almost doing barely less than a hose wash. I might try the MF towels only sometime soon.
 
Maybe it's just me, but with my Meguiars D114, I use one cheap supreme shine meguiars towel for my whole car via two bucket method. I just scrub the dirt off in the rinse bucket against the grit guard and all dirt is gone. D114 releases dirt insanely well. Most of the dirt is gone just from moving the Supreme shine towel around in the rinse bucket. No scratches that I notice when comparing before and after (everything will scratch, it's just how much and whether it's noticeable or not and it wasn't here).
 
D114 releases dirt and cleans like no other rinseless I've tried.
 
Another DP Wash & Gloss user. No complaints. Will buy it again when current supply runs out. Multiple uses - what's not to like!
