I have to say,I'm a fan of Optimum products.So far i have tried (2) product's:
OHC and OHS.They both worked/corrected very well for me.I thought I would give another Optimum product a shot.
I tried my first rinseless wash tonight with the ONR.
I used a 4.5 gallon bucket filled with about 4 gallon's of water,then I added 3oz of ONR.I placed (2) GritGaurds in the bucket and used a light blue 15"x16"WW MF (folded twice/8 sections)to wipe down and a white 24"x36" WW drying towel,doing a section at a time.

My delay in trying any rinseless product is,scratching the paint wiping a dusty or a light dirty vehicle.My vehicle was both this time.

This is my personal DD so I thought I would try ONR on my car before any customer's vehicle.As I plan on doing some correcting jobs this winter and was looking at ONR for help with salt removal as well.

These pic's are from different area's that are 90% corrected.Now mind you,I have a layer of BFWD (sealant) under a layer of Pinnacle SSW (spray wax) on the vehicle.

I must say,I was impressed.

Really to my amazement,I did NOT induce any new scratches with 3oz of ONR.:righton:
The whole car (including washing the windows) took me about 30min. to complete.

With these kind of results,it sure beats breaking out the foam gun,2 buckets,detailing spray,Blaster side-kick, for a dusty/light dirty vehicle!!!

Can ONR be mixed to be used as a waterless wash? If so, at what rate?

Been using ONR at QD strength (8oz. per gallon) for waterless wash, but now perfer OOC as a waterless wash. Will give Ultima a shot this weekend thanks to Old Tiger.

Nice work Chris! Thanks for the writeup. The pictures show the lack of marring from ONR firsthand. :dblthumb2:
