Wolfgang Uber QD dilution
I have some Uber on the way, and I've read the 3 oz to 1 gallon of water for QD. In my brain, that doesn't seem like enough. Is that enough? I'm used to ONR 1 oz to 16 oz water. Anybody have an optimal ratio?
Thanks.

Yes, 3oz per gallon of distilled water is the perfect ratio for quick detailer, clay lube, and waterless wash. Uber is SO much better than ONR and I love most of optimums products! One thing ONR does do better than any other rinseless wash is encapsulate dirt. It's pretty amazing actually. Unfortunately it just isn't very slick. Slickness and lubricity is where Uber blows every other rinseless wash away.

You use it @that dilution for claylube? I used it like that 1 time as a last resort after I ran out of my supply of D114 and it practically wrecked my claymitt. Made it sticky and had it beading up in the worst way.
Directions say it’s 1oz. per gallon for claylube and I found out why.

Yes, it's almost like an APC for me, I use it all the time.

I've only ever use D114 or N-914 as a clay lube for nanoskin autoscrub pads and for clay bar alternatives. But I've used uber(3oz. per gallon) as a clay lube for traditional clay several times. That's good to know though, I'll definitely be steering clear of it when using clay alternatives.

That actually is a good ratio and it is plenty of product. I use 2/3 oz per 32 oz of distilled water for my waterless/detail spray mixture.

Ive used it at 2 and 2/3 ounce per gallon for my waterless wash mixture. I like it, but I am a bigger fan of the Ultima WW+.

Re: Wolfgang Uber QD dilution
Since I like buying and trying, I use UWW for waterless, ONR for rinseless and I've become a big fan of mixing ECH20 w/ Reload for QD work (Merlin's Elixir)
