So I have done a lot of searches on the different rinseless / waterless washes and have narrowed it down to 3. I am interested in the wolf gang uber, the UWW +, and the carpro ECH2o. I know they all have there benefits so maybe I will end up getting all 3. I am looking for a product to use on my 1980 Camaro and 2008 Corvette, my question is can you use a product like the car pro to wash and then hand wax the car after or is the surface going to be to slick? I may have to use a rinseless wash with no additives? I would also like to use a rinseless wash on my snowmobile, are any of them any good on plastics?
Thanks
 
If you use ECH2o I would stick with something in the car pro line for your "wax" step such as Reload. Personally I think UWW+ would work great for you and work on the snowmobile too. I guess the question is "what product are you going to hand wax with?" You'll want a Waterless wash product that is compatible.
 
I personally use WGURW on my 07 Z06 and am sold on it. Can't speak for the other products mentioned. It has multiple uses and leaves a great shine and slickness. Give AG a call, maybe you can purchase samples of each product to help you determine which one is best for your use.
 
You probably don't need all 3, as WG Uber and UWW+ would be similar. Is either of your vehicles coated? ECH2O will be best for a coated car, but in my opinion lacks a little in cleaning ability when used as a rinseless. Uber is probably the best "all around" rinseless/waterless/quick detail product on the market if you are looking to leave a little extra protection behind. McKee's N-914 is also a forum favorite right now if you're interested in cleaning only (no protection).

You mentioned hand waxing after completing your rinseless wash, which would lead me to recommend Uber or N-914 as your best choices. I probably would not apply a wax on top of ECH2O, as I don't see a good rationale to do that...
 
It would make more sense to do a traditional wash first, apply your wax of choice, then use your rinseless wash after to maintain.

ECH20 is more coating oriented and requires more effort to use, but it does leave a nice gloss and slickness. UWW+ was my favorite waterless wash until I got a hold of the new Griot's stuff. They are all good options though IMO.

^^^^^ This is the trusted pro detailer that told me about Griot's. I go to him with a lot of questions and he's never let me down. Very skilled and knowledgeable.

I don't have many different types of waxes, I do have reload because I was going to do the cquartz on my truck, I usually use collonite 845 or liquid glass.

Ya I would do a traditional wash on my corvette before I wax but on my 1980 Camaro I would rather not use the hose, does the wolf gang uber have additives in it that you wouldn't be able to apply wax over? I would assume if you clay bar it would remove any of that anyway.
 
I have both Ech2o and WGU, since you've mentioned them in your choices and both are excellent! Both make great WW as well as RW's, as well as clay lube too. You could almost flip a coin here, LOL!

One thing you might wanna consider is McKee's N914 as it doesn't leave anything behind, pure clean!

Hmm another product I have to try now..the GG rinseless. I use two..ONR and WG and love them both. I use ONR when I want a really good cleaning and WG when I need a quickie and don't have time to spray a qd.
 
I just recently started using Echo2 both my cars are coated in Polish Angel Viking Coat. Couldn't be happier with the results. Just make sure it's broken down with distilled water.
