    mckees new waterless wash 4 in 1 product

    i see this much anticipated product has just come out, it looks interesting, they claim it can remove polishing and compounding oils i might just get it for that. i know the dilution rate is stronger but i don't see how it could remove polishing oils and compound residue yet still leave a natural carnuba wax totally unchanged? i thought anything strong enough to remove those things will also remove wax. what do you think? are there any gloss enhancers in this thing?

    Compounds and polishes are water soluble where as waxes, sealants and coatings are not. That's just my thinking.

    Need some links.

    McKee’s 37 N-914 Rinseless Wash

    McKee’s 37 N-914 Rinseless Wash 128 oz.

    I can't wait to try it out.

    Edit, here's what it says about gloss enhancers at the end of the description.

    "When diluted accordingly, McKee’s 37 N-914 will not alter the look or feel of your paint coating, paint sealant or carnauba wax – this highly concentrated formula does not contain protective polymers or glossing agents and leaves you with only a purely cleaned surface."

    Its kind of funny, that its N-914. A tip of the hat do D-114?

    what do you think?
    •Concentrates' "strengths" are determined
    by the correlation between specific tasks,
    and their manufacturers' recommended
    dilution ratios---the dilution ratios that
    they have foreordained that'll best perform
    those specific tasks.

    Meguiar's and Menzerna compounds and polishes do not have oils?

    Perhaps it has to do with the bonding of the previously applied wax or sealant that allows it to escape the polish removal.

    I'm willing to bet that if this truly is strong enough to clean away polish oils it can deteriorate a fresh coat of wax.

    Nevertheless, I'm jazzed up about this product and will definitely be placing a gallon in my next AG order.

    Thumbs up Re: mckees new waterless wash 4 in 1 product

    I was expecting there to be an official thread!

    Well as one of the beta testers for this product all I can say is it WILL meet or exceed your expectations. You can "see the clean", if that makes any sense to you. I should also mention that when you mix this product that it foams, just like D114 and will almost disappear in the bucket, so don't worry there. I say this assuming that the beta ends up being the same as we all tested, I can't see them adding more dye or whatever gives it the color to keep people happy in that respect.

    I see they offer a smaller size and that's cool for noobs or those curious or on the fence about it but I can assure you this, if you clean your car on a regular basis, get the gallon, trust me
