No Rinse - Thanks

[Vtwinracersp2]

this won't harm the paint?

how does this stuff actually work?

will it strip any wax?

 

[jimmied]

It has never harmed my paint. It just produces a real slick water that suspends dirt. You wash a panel and dry the panel. Continue to next panel. Have to dry or it leaves a "instant detailer " type residue that requires the panel to be rewashed and dried.

I don't know. Voodoo magic I think. All I know is it works, won't scratch black paint and when you are finished your wash rag looks like all the dirt is on it yet when you feel it there is no grit. Magic I say.

I know this might be a silly question, but how does the no rinse work in regards to breaking down bird droppings/bugs?

Thanks for bringing this back. Sounds promising. Quick question though. Do you guys use this stuff on glass and window, or just the painted panels?

Everything. Works great. Read my first post and follow the instructions. I was very impressed.

Thanks again. I'm totally sold. It's freezing here in So Cal. Dropped to the mid 60s today. Brrrrrrrrrr! :tongue1:

Will this work on kids? Getting them in and out of the tub and the whole wash and rinse thing takes so long.:becky:

Used it today on my T4R and my wife's Pilot.

Make sure you use the two-bucket method so you don't mix the filth in with the ONR. work from top down.

Works great and not a scratch.

Hi everyone, I was wondering if local auto parts stores carry the Optimum No Rinse, or if anyone has an idea where I can go grab a bottle instead of having to order it online. Thanks, have a great day yall!

Thanks for the thread bump. I'm one of those new guys that will be ordering some.

I use the no-touch car wash ('cause I'm lazy) weekly, but this will probably be better and faster than a trip there as well as saving money.

I think the only way to get it is online. I buy mine from Amazon.

If you really like a clean truck this is for you and you will save a lot over a car wash.

Thanks for the repost! I ordered last week and expect it to be here today or tomorrow. Looking forward to using it as described in OP.

To the Top!! Great info guys! I was just about to buy some, when I noticed their new product that seems to have come out in Dec 2012 called "Optimum No Rinse Wash & Wax"

I found a review of it and it seems to get high praise- anybody used this?

Great! Let me know how it is. I would try it myself, but they want $15 to ship me a $20 product I'll have to wait until I'm back on the mainland

As promised, I did try out this new wash and wax by NoRinse and I have to say that I am definitely pleased and impressed. The carnuba in the solution has definitely left a nice shine on the truck. Would definitely recommend others trying this!

Just bought some of this and sent it to a friend's house who's coming to visit next week. Looking forward to trying it out. Anybody have anymore experiences with it? Still like it?

Can someone post a picture of their 4Runner after using this?

I am incredibly anal about washing my vehicle. I drove a Black Jeep Wrangler for the last 3 years and it saw a claybar and wax treatment every spring. From there, regular weekly hand washes until winter- then touchless washes which don't do a great job but enough to get the salt and grime off. Is this stuff going to do the trick, or is it only going to look clean from a distance? Here is pic of my Jeep detailed last spring to give you an idea as to what is "clean" to me. I would love to buy it.

It's as good as a bucket hand wash, maybe better. I know it's hard to believe but even when I had my black 4Runner it did wonderful with no scratches. Now with my silver TE it is just as good. It's actually amazing to me. When finished the rag is totally dirty but no grit and the rinse rag and water is totally clear. Go to my instruction post and follow those directions. I am on my 3rd bottle now.
