Absolute is nice and this new version of ONR is passing up N-914 as my 1B favorite with Absolute.
Hey was anti ONR for some reason for a long while. Just bought it to use in rinse bucket.
I’m still not sold on DIY based of him trying to over explain the dirt being suspended in the liquid. Will eventually give it a shot.

Re: Rinseless Washes - 2022
Thanks for the feedback coatings. I'm into rinseless wash products big time, they are my favorite products besides my polishers, pads, polishes and clay.
I recently gave away my last yellow rupes pad to a local detail shop, they are actually using system x coatings. The owner told me he will do a full detail for $500 with a coating. They are using menzerna and megs polishes. Great lighting. I saw and picked up lol a shinemate rotary and northwolf DA, which are both from china.

Re: Rinseless Washes - 2022
Question for you all using Absolute -- Does it "clump" up in the bucket, and have issues mixing? Also does it smell like shampoo (lol)?
I've been less than impressed with Absolute just because of its strange consistency. It's like it doesn't fully dissolve into the water for me. Wondering if that's normal, or if because I bought a bottle from the first batch that there was some quality issues. It still cleans fine and wipes up about as easily as ONR, but it doesn't seem to suspend itself very well (or the particles in the bucket for that matter).

Yes it will clump in the bucket. I find I really have to mix it in by hand to get the clumps to go away. Overall I find the product " is ok" for a rinseless wash. For having used just about every rinseless on the market I find it is certainly not a game changer. I have watched tons of YT videos and I really begin to wonder what is pure marketing and what is an honest review. It does leave the surface "sorta slick" but in comparison to something like Uber Rinseless there is a huge difference. Will I reorder when my bottle is done...Jury is still out.

Re: Rinseless Washes - 2022
Yeah, absolute doesn't just dissolve like other RWs. It more just kinda disperses.

It's a normal characteristic of the product, probably it's only drawback. All products have a quirk or two.
A couple of pointers -
-Shake the bottle thoroughly before measuring out.
-Try using warm water for your dilution.
-Stir the product vigorously in the bucket before adding your towels, wash mitt or sponge.
I have had it clump once, all I did was stir up the bucket again and was good to go again.

Mine seams to mix fine but I use warm water. Does need a good mix and I find it slick to the feel with a BRS. Not so much with towels. Mine smells like coconuts.
It’s my favorite so far with limited usage with BRS. But yeah nothing “game changing”.

Re: Rinseless Washes - 2022
I have a bottle of Absolute RW and look forward to trying it out, might be a while as our 4 weeks of above average temps are over for a bit
I'm guessing it makes for a good interior detailer too

It smells great.
I wish i could try it but it's just too cold here right now.
Based on the smell and shelf appeal it will be the one i will try before DIY, which i ordered the same time.
I did mix up about 800ml of DIY at 1:118 for a pretreat.. lol Just because i can.
