    Thank you! I thought putting it in the garage to dwell would help, but nope. Lol

    I'll try some experiments as well! Thank you for the tips!

    Yeah it works good but for me foam was not thick enough too runny and wanted more dwell time using griots surface wash. If same for you (runny) try BF foam booster.

    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Kicked it old school today, at least for me anyways. Haven't used ONR or Opti Seal in quite sometime. So I did a RW with ONR and used Opti Seal as a drying aid.

    ONR is still good, and like many ONR is the first rinseless product I ever used. However in comparison to other RW products that I've used it's the worst of the bunch. Just doesn't have the slickness that I get with WG Uber, N 914, and Ech2O.

    Opti Seal however reminded me how good it is when using it as a drying aid. Water just kind of runs away from the paint when you used it, gives great slickness and lubrication under your drying towel. It's quite humid today and had no issues with streaking on the paint, tiny bit on glass but nothing major. A lot of use drying aids and most of them work fine but all they provide is extra slickness and some protection, in my experience they don't necessarily help in actually removing the water the same way Opti Seal does.

    Yep it's a perfectly fine product and works well, but it's just at the bottom of my personal list.

    I agree. I had a 32oz of ONR and ONRWW and gave the ONRWW to my buddy. I’d used maybe 2 oz. almost through the ONR. Use it as a Detailer in the work truck and use it as clay lube. Seems to help burn through it. Then have over a gallon of 914 and 20oz of Ech2o left

    Do you prefer the foam gun over the foam9

    Did a bucket/6 mitt wash with Reset. I do my wheels after pouring left over soap to wash. SprY down with a pump up garden sprayer with a wand. Clean with woolies and boars hair detail brush and then rinse after. Minimal splash on car and while that with a 16x16 PFM.

    Merlin’s mix as drying aid. With PFM’s

    Went to see Spider-Man. It rained .....
