I've had a bottle of this stuff lying around since last fall, but never really gave it a shot. I hate washing my vehicles at home because I have hard water and usually have to wash in the sun. So, I get awful water spots, even when I rinse carefully and try to dry quickly. I use a leaf blower with a water wand attachment, but the water is still hard to blow off...it seems to cling to the surface, even though I use BFWD as a final step (makes the paint pretty smooth and slick).

So, used ONR as directed: one panel at a time, from the top down. What amazed me is that I still used my blower/wand attachment, but the water just RUSHED off the paint, leaving me very little wiping to do with a microfiber. And it sure fixed my hard water issues, leaving no streaks or spots. Wipedown was very painless.

I'm not sure I saved much time over the old hose-rinse method, but the results were sure worth it. I'll sure be using it in the future.

Just tryed ONR this past week myself. Only took me about an hour to clean a full size super crew F150, and it left a great shine.

I used it this past winter, and likewise was impressed on how it worked. Will be trying it on door jams next.

Its super fast for me...

It's amazing stuff! I've been using it as my main car soap for about a year and a half now.

That's great to hear the ONR worked good for you.
Here are a couple of threads I started a while back:

ONR is indeed a great product.

I got my ONR earlier this week. Didnt have enough time to wash a car. But, I did wash some door jambs with a spray bottle. Worked quite well. :)

I keep a spray bottle of ONR mixed at QD strength in the trunk of my car in case it gets hit with bird bombs. ONR is an excellent QD & clay bar lube.

Being sort of old fashioned, probably due to my age, I resisted trying this stuff.

A good wash can only be accomplished with a nice soapy bucket of wash water and appropriate wash mitt so there was no way these products could live up to their claims; I must now admit I was WRONG! :eek:

Entering the winter season last November I bought a gallon of Detailer’s Pro Series Rinseless Wash & Gloss and could not believe how well it worked; I was shocked.

I tried both Detailer’s Pro Series Rinseless Wash & Gloss and Optimum No Rinse and both work incredibly well!

I am a believer!! :dblthumb2:

so far I have only used my ONR for clay lube but I have tried wash and gloss for a regular wash with a hose (not ready to try it rinseless yet) and it does leave the paint glossy but I'm worried about the dirt/staining I get on my wash mitt that doesn't seem to release when I rinse in my second bucket.

I guess I'm just looking for reassurance that if I scrub my wash mitt against the grit guard, it's only staining that remains and I'm ok to keep using the mitt on the rest of the car...

Not to sound dumb, but how exactly is this stuff applied. I do a two bucket wash, and also just bought a spray wand from lowes that hooks to the end of a garden hose and it has a small container to add soap. It's not the best for increasing pressure, but it's not bad for $20. The back of my white gti is always dirty and I'm looking for the quickest easiest way to clean it in between weekly (or so) washes. Just a hose rinse isn't enough and I feel like if I use the micro fiber wash mit and two buckets I might as well do the entire car. Any suggestions?
