Is waterless wash w/carnauba a dust magnet when used over...

[hoyt66]

a paint sealant. I use Pinnacle Liquid Crystal Waterless Wash with Carnauba, waterless car wash, eco friendly car wash products (http://www.autogeek.net/pinnacle-waterless-car-wash.html)
And is there enough carnauba in it to change the "glassy" look of a paint sealant?

Carnauba to me is a nightmare on black paint :p
Lots and tons of dust!!!

I agree . So I'm using a sealant to help out with that. I also use a ww that had carnauba in it. Is there enough carnauba in it that I'm defeating my purpose? Maybe switch to a rinseless? I kind of like the ww with the carnauba thinking it has more lubrication???

If you like wash & wax then
I suggest look into Meguiars D115 :)
You may try it at:
1:4 / 1:8 or even 1:20
The lubricity & gloss it left behind is excellent. I like it at 1:8

The pinnacle product referenced is excellent. I've not seen it act as a dust magnetic in the same manner a conventional carnuba wax absolutely does. My guess...there is very little carnuba in it.



Also, D115 is without equal imo.

It's quite possible that the "form" in which the
carnauba wax takes/appears, in the WW-w/carnauba
product you are using, may act to provide lubrication.

However:
Whenever I think of carnauba wax being used as
a lubricant, I think of its usage in the casting of bullets.

I had the Chemical guys Eco Smart and noticed the same thing. I now use the D115 and it does not attract dust the same way.

Pinnacle Rinesless with Carnuba is one of the three worst product I have ever used

Too much buffing required
