    Optimum No Rinse

    Looking for something to quickly clean sections between washings without hosing down the whole car. Currently use Meg Quick Wax to spot clean / wax but its not really enough to clean dirtier sections and doesn't remove things like bird droppings which come off pretty easily using my finger nail very lightly. I wonder if Optimum No Rinse Wash & Wax would be good for this?

    Thanks

    Yes. Soak a microfiber towel in ONR, place on the bird poo or other debris. Let the ONR soften the nasty and remove....done. Also one can soak microfiber towels in a ONR solution for a rinseless wash. Have some drying microfiber towels on hand to dry each panel as you rinseless wash

    diddo, this is my process. Note, I'm using ONR not ONRWW. I've tried both, prefer ONR and then I use a spray wax as a drying aid/to boost the gloss a bit.

    What's great about this stuff is you can make a batch in a bucket, throw some microfiber towels in there and just leave it in your garage. Then when you get home and you've got a bird dropping you want to clean up, just open the bucket, grab a towel and wipe it off. Then you won't actually have to make the solution every time.

    I don't keep a bucket around. I just use a spray bottle of ONR/ONRW, soak the area of doodoo or other dirt, soak a MF towel and lay it on top.

    I keep a bottle of clay lube strength ONR in the net behind my passenger seat for emergency removal.

    You really don't want to use your fingernail or fingers because you will marr your paint.
    Like the guys said, soak it to loosen so it wipes away easy and remove as soon as sighted. Don't wait!!!

    I do this also with ONR or WGURW. It's economical enough to keep a bottle in all cars.

    I always went with 8oz per gallon for clay and pre treat ratio.
