    Mixed ONR and RFEW for rinseless wash - good results

    ONR v3 is great for cleaning, but it kinda stains the wash media too much.
    RFEW is also great at cleaning, but does not have polymers - I think polymers are a must for rinseless washing.

    So I had an idea today, and decided to try it. In a bucket with 2 gallons water,I mixed half ounce of RFEW and half ounce of ONR v3.

    Results were really good - similar washing/cleaning capabilities, and the wash media came out pretty clean at the end.

    The only negative I noticed was heavy streaking when cleaning the glass (windshield and windows). Other than that, it worked beautifully.

    Unfortunately, I did not take my camera when I went washing, so I do not have any pics to share.. may be next time when I do it again..

    please don't make up your own acronyms, as if we don't have enough to worry about, just call it Megs No Rinse

    Lol if it streaks on glass that means it streaks on your paint as well no?

    I am pretty sure I read that acronym here before. Can't remember which thread - If this is not well known, my apologies, but I did not make up a new acronym for sure.

    No, atleast I did not notice any streaking on paint - just on glass.

    Whether rinseless or conventional, I only use wash products that leave glass perfectly clean without streaking because your glass is the perfect indicator for what your paint experiences. Perfectly clean windows mean perfectly clean paint. Plus who wants to clean windows after every wash? I haven't cleaned the exterior windows after a wash in so long I'm not sure I even have any glass cleaner other than a small aerosol can of stoners for the inside glass.
    In my day we didn't have the Internet, iPods,iPads, or smart phones....but we had some really bad-azz cars.
