    Question Optimum No Rinse Wash & Wax on glass okay?

    I'm putting together my kit for my first jump into the rinseless pool and I'm looking at the ONRWW and wondering whether or not it's fine to use on all the exterior glass?

    the intent is that I get the cars pro-detailed, polished, waxed and then I use the ONRWW on the whole car to maintain.

    I'd also like to know if I could work in the Opti-Seal on the ONRWW?

    Sure. Over in Optimum land they actually recommend Opti-Seal as a drying aid for rinseless; wash panel, one spray Opti-Seal, dry panel. I've never done it that way.

    Opti-Seal works very well as a drying aid, gloss is amped up and works great on the entire car (trim,chrome,wheels glass etc). I think it's a great productive way to enhance,maintain and save time. I do use dedicated drying towels when I use Opti-Seal as a drying aid though, in my use the OS makes a ww less effective over time

    Re: Optimum No Rinse Wash & Wax on glass okay?

    ONRW&W was my first rinseless purchase. First a 32oz to try (liked it) then another, after that a gallon. Then I got the bug to try D114 and D156 as a drying aid.

    The ONRW&W works great on exterior glass, I wouldn't use it inside. The one thing I didn't like is, it seemed to take a little effort to dry. Then I would have to go over it to buff it out.
    It might be complaining to say it was smeary, but I did use it in various conditions. I ended up giving the leftover gallon to my brother.

    Since D114s demise I have been using blue ONRW&S.

    My choice for cleaning, looks and protection is ONR plus Opti-Seal for a drying aid.

    Personally I like ONR better for glass. ONRWW is less forgiving.

    You can't get away with reusing a buff off towel as you would with ONR. It may look sparkling, but as soon as the light hits just the right angle that's when you know you should have gone with a fresh towel. Definitely more finicky than its sibling.

    what I was hoping to accomplish by using the ONRWW was to not have to chase it with a dedicated spray wax.

    I'm hoping I could just wash with the ONRWW, then dry with the Opti-seal and be done.

    This works perfectly fine with both versions of ONR.
