    Pinnacle Liquid Cyrstal Waterless Wash Concentrate with Carnauba

    Does anyone know if you can use Pinnacle Liquid Cyrstal Waterless Wash Concentrate with Carnuaba as a rinseless wash? Is it recommended? I have been using Pinnacle Liquid Gloss Rinseless Wash Concetrate with Carnauba, but I am almost out of both.

    I am thinking of trying Ultima Waterless Wash Plus+ Concentrate for the versatility of being able to use it as a rinseless wash and waterless wash product. But if I can use Pinnacle Liquid Crystal as both a rinseless and waterless, I can then use one product for two tasks, and continue using Pinnacle

    Trying to get some more information before I place an order.

    Thanks for the help.

    yes you can dillute 1 oz per gallon to make arinsless was from pinnacle's concentrate.
    ultima is cheaper per oz of mixed product. both are outstanding values.

    Where did you find the 1:128 rinseless dilution ratio? TIA.

    I like Pinnacle Rinseless much better as a QD. 3oz to 32 oz bottle but works much better IMO.

    Why would further dilution of this product from a 1:32 ratio, to possibly a 1:128 ratio...as suggested above for a rinseless-wash...result in this product smearing? TIA.

    Stick with Pinnacle Liquid Gloss Rinseless Wash for that application.

    Bob
    The dilution ratio is not the key variable in the rinseless vs waterless equation with this product

    It's the method of application, that makes all the difference

    With waterless, you can keep it off if the glass more easily than when used as a rinseless


    I should have specified that in the previous post


    I don't thing the product is as good as any of the more commonly used rinseless products and the protection left by the carnauba is very minimal

    This picture is at one week. It actually makes the beading of the underlying product much worse
