Rinseless - how clean?

[PoorOwner]

I am getting meguires d114 I wanted to know if I can get a car clean enough, so I can put a car cover back on until next drive, or clean enough to apply wax without worry too much about scratching? I will be using the 10 clean mf towel or so with the wash solution .

I am thinking of using the d114 about every 600 miles.

Depends on how dirty the car is and whether there's caked on mud etc. I'd personally do rinseless more often to prevent it from getting too dirty.

I would say the car was foam washed, sealed and driven in dry roads.
So no mud, just soot, brake dust, and pollens.

Rinseless will get the job done then. If paranoid you can first do a quick pressure rinse or leaf blower to displace any larger particles.

I Rinseless Washed a couple cars at a Dodge Dealer yesterday and the cars were filthy. The D114 cleaned the cars but my drying towel got dirty. I think the sponge just moved aroung the dirt and the drying towel wiped it off. It is always better to rinse off dirty cars before doing a Rinseless

This bottom car was one I cleaned and it turned out nice but the drying towel was dirty when I finished

Do you just wash the media afterwards in a washing machine? Do you just regular laundry detergent or anything special?

Thanks

I wash the Dealer cars with a Big Red Sponge and then wipe dry with a waffle weave and the waffle weave was dirty. In the future i will dry the car with a 16x24 damp micofiber rung out from the D114 solution and then wash the towels in a washing machine in cold water to get them clean. I use All Free & Clear with Oxi Clean with a cap full of DP Microfiber Cleaner, and then air dry the towels in the dryer using no heat

How long do your towels take to dry with no heat. Already takes like 40 mins to dry on ultra low heat for me.

is hot water bad for mf towels?.. because I have some I use to buff off wax, hot water helps to get the wax to come out

I dry my microfiber towels on no heat (air dry) and it takes 90 minutes or more then I hang them on a towel rack

I would just wash in warm water instead of hot. Hot water may not hurt the towels but i don't like taking the chance. The hot dryer is a really bad idea. It will melt the fibers in the towel and make the towel feel rough

Hot water is supposedly fine up to about 150 degrees F. Doubt most houses have water that hot

I agree hot water is probably ok but I still use cold just to be safe

Hey thanks for the replies. I have a roof box for cars that after my last trip I hung it up on the wall. I wanted to wash it with the car but didn't have a chance, so the dirt and water spots are still there. Rinseless wash would be perfect to try this on. It's got a silver paint on it and I think it's clear coated.
