    Re: ONR perfect for MIchigan Winters

    Give N914 a shot! This product is excellent! Great cleaning ability, leaves behind a high gloss shine. This product also makes a great clay lube and panel wipe. Try it, I bet you make the change. Waterless wash ratio is awesome too!

    Yes, I have been reading alot about that. I have also been switching over to Mckee's 37 products. I will give it a shot when I'm finished with the onr and uber.

    Have to second the N914....i was a long time uber user and while I still think uber is a fantastic product I think I may like the N914 a bit better. Seems slicker to me and the finish is cleaner. I don't require additional protection and the finish seems clearer with the 914 to me. Can't go wrong with either though.

    Hit up our van with ONR this morning. Worked pretty good. It’s white so couldn’t see if there was any streaking or salt marks still. Looked 100 times better than it was. Was -13 out when I left for work. May do the Accord tomorrow morning

    I'm a big presoak believer. Especially with road salt. Give those polymers time to work loosen and break down those salts. No matter how good the product is, your technique and equipment you are marring the paint to some degree. Is it going to look like you keyed your paint, no. You are wiping in straight lines which makes scratches even harder to see. Now with quality product, good technique and equipment you may be pressed to see the micro marring but it's there. It will also polish right out come spring when you do your first detail. The question is do you want chemicals sitting on your paint all winter or minor amount of micro marring to clean up in spring.

    Right now my go to Infinite Use Detail Juice. I have not tried anything yet that's better. It does so many things really well. It may not be the cheapest but competitive price wise. I would say middle of the road price wise. It can be a substitute for quite a few products in a detailing arsenal. I got a bottle of BF rinse less wash for free and only used it as a QD right now but it was super slick with a nice gloss, but it is up there in the top tier price wise and the dilution ratio to me is poor.

    and my wife is happy. As long as this car is clean.....PBMG boxes on the porch go unquestioned ;-)
    Looks like it may have helped on the garage floor as well.

    Yep did our 17 Accord sport this morning just now. Worked well although hard to get it 100% dry when your garage is 34 degrees. Takes a while but looks much better. Been using the GD method instead of a mitt or sponge since I always had salt trails after it dried in the past see if this helps

    Car looks good. I like that color. As far as drying in the colder temp I still use my cordless leaf blower to dry. In single digit temps I'm only getting my garage up to 41-45
