    Question GG Brilliant Finish Rinseless Dilution Ratios?

    Anyone know the dilution ratios for GG Brilliant Finish Rinseless as a pre-spray?

    I've been using GG Wash & Wax Rinseless (15:1) as a pre-spray (and drying aid) followed by ONR+BRS and decided to mix it up a bit and picked up Uber and GG BF Rinseless.

    I've got my BRS soaking in Uber but I can only seem to find dilution ratios for GG WWR and not GG BFR.

    I’ve always used my rinseless products at the same dilution for a presoak as I do for washing.

    If there’s not an official recommendation from GG, I’d imagine you can mix it up however you’d like.

    I've only used it as a RW. 1 oz per gallon but 2 oz per gallon would be good for that I'd think

    Re: GG Brilliant Finish Rinseless Dilution Ratios?

    For Rinseless Washes:
    Brilliant Rinseless is - 1 gal : 1 oz (128:1).
    Wash & Wax Rinseless is - 2.5 gal : 1 oz (320:1).

    These ratios suggest that W&WR is 2.5x more concetrated than BFR.

    For Pre-soaking:
    Brilliant Rinseless is - N/A
    Wash & Wax Rinseless is - 32.8 oz to 2.2 oz (~15:1).

    So it would stand that taking the 2.2 oz and increasing it 2.5x to would make the equivalent pre-soak ratio with BFR.
    So then logically it would be 29.5 oz water to 5.5 oz Brilliant Rinseless or a (5.363... :1) ratio.

    Rounding up that puts BFR at (5.4:1) for a pre-spray, but that doesn't look right to me.

    I’ve called them in the past about dilution ratios and they just say 1:128 dude was clueless.

    What are you saying, exactly?
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    I know the title says Brilliant Finish RInseless but the wash and wax has crept in here.

    Re: GG Brilliant Finish Rinseless Dilution Ratios?

    I called griots and told them I wanted to use brilliant finish rinseless wash as a waterless wash or pre soak. They said the dilution ratio is 1:128. I’m assuming since there wash and wax is 1:15 for pre soak then brilliant finish would be similar. I’m not sure the guy understood what I was asking

    Fairly certain he was just using it as a benchmark to gauge the products concentration in its undiluted form. They’re from the same manufacturer so not the worst idea, I guess.

    But again, I still think it’s easiest to just fill your bucket and spray it on at whatever dilution you use it to wash at.

    I’ve mixed up all the rinseless products I’ve used in the past stronger at least once to try as a presoak, and it really just ends up feeling like wasted product.
