Meguairs D114 Rinse free express wash question.

**andrewbmw** · 03-23-2014, 06:27 PM

Can you use Meguaris D114 rinse free express wash as a waterless wash instead of a rinseless wash?

Mike Phillips and Jason showed in the video using it as a waterless wash and also a paint cleaner. He specified that the paint cleaner was 1:15 dilution ratio. He also specified that a rinseless wash was a 1:128 ratio. But never said what was the ratio for the waterless wash?

I cannot find a definitive answer as to if it can be used as a waterless wash, and if so, what is the dilution ratio?

Wish I could ask Jason the question =)

Thanks!

Best best would be 1:4 or 1:8

That would strip all of the waxes and sealants. I am not talking about D115, that would definitely be 1:4 or 1:8 =)

On meguiars forum they suggested either 1:128

This was debated when D114 was released on the megs forum, if I recall 1 oz for 1 to 1.5 gallon of water is good for waterless and thats what I personally use.

You are thinking of a different product; D115.

No. Is there something specific you are looking for. Its a fairly simple process.

Mix a gallon and use a garden sprayer and shine... I have also tried .5 oz to one gallon and had great results. Just remember drench the panels, i probably use over half a gallon of solution to clean my cars.
