Optimum No Rinse wash seems to scare people a bit. So, thought I'd attach the following photos. (Apologies for the photos--the quality is not what I would like)

Photo sequence: before wash, after wash under halogens, after cleaner fluid and wax inside, then an outside shot.

Car is 2006 "S"

 

I use ONR religiously. It's awesome stuff and takes less time than a traditional washing and it can be done in my garage regardless of time of day or weather.

 

Me too, Ian. It's such a time saver! I love the stuff--and the Swisswax too.

 

Nice work! Just so you all know I will be carrying ONR shortly, getting ready for the winter months.

 

All I use any more is ONR unless the car is really dirty

A good trick is to spray a Quick Detailer before the final wipe.

I've found I wipe the car less than regular wet washing.
less wiping=less marring

Okay, I'll bite. What is ONR? When do you use it and is it compatible with synthetic detailing products like Zaino?
Thanks

 

Good question. Someone enlighten us? I wouldn't know, I'm part of the Zaino cult!

 

ONR = Optimum No Rinse car wash. As to being compatible with Zaino, I don't know why it wouldn't be, but I defer to guys like Phil and other detailing experts on here.

 

So do any stores carry ONR, or is the only place to purchase it online?

I would love to give it a try.

 

I should have this in shortly so stay tuned.

 

hOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

 

Gallons are $34 or so and quarts $15? Obviously, the gallon is the better buy.

 

Ummm... hook me up. K?

 

I'm not a dealer for it, but Patrick at exceldetail.com is

Either him, or Phil when Phil gets it would be my suggestion. Each of them are terrific to deal with.

HTH

 

Sounds too good to be true. What about swirwls? With lot of dust and sand you can't avoid swirwls, can you?
