Uww+ ratio for qd

[muscleman]

What uww+ concentrate to make qd ?

[jamesboyy]

You mix 1/2 oz waterless wash to 22oz of water

[cleanmycorolla]

Same as the waterless dilution.

[muscleman]

whats the difference between waterless and qd ?

[Dogfather]

I get a gallon of distilled water and fill an old Adams detail spray container about halfway, add 3oz. of UWW+ conc. then add the rest of the the water. Put the cap on and give it a shake.
It's just a little pinch more concentrated than their recommendation.

[muscleman]

Use distilled water.

why?

In the case of this product they both are the same. Typically though a QD is for a quick touch up. And a waterless is for some higher degree of film and dirt than a QD could offer proper cleaning of.

why?
You use distilled water because it offers a more pure base for which the product can "get into" for lack of a better term. Tap water has chemicals, and fluoride, etc...things that can cause the product to streak and perhaps alter the properties of your product.

99.9% of the people who I know of who use these products use distilled water. IMO there's no other way. Do it extra awesome or dont do it at all. :dblthumb2:

Unfortunately looks like you have to pony up the 2.99. Unless you have a humidifier and capture the reclaim. But who has time to do that.

I had a 32 oz bottle mixture of TAP WATER & ONR, added extra ONR, with in a weeks time the BLUE color of ONR was disappearing.
For lack of better term the ONR was ATTACKING or adhering to the chemicals in the TAP WATER, after two weeks the mixture was almost clear.
Now I add ONR to distilled water and it's blue as day oneIm the MAN
