Re: Dilution for pre soak
Depends how much of that pink magical Uber I have left in my nifty 16oz self-measuring bottle
For a garage queen that never sees real driving conditions I'd go with weaker dilution. Heavier for daily drivers.
I've only used for pre-soak my detail strength dilution 3oz to a gallon (distilled), because it is all I have pre-mixed. I use Uber at the recommended 1oz to 3 gallons for regular GD RW method.
I keep a gallon of Uber detail spray (3oz to gallon) mixed in a distilled gallon. I never worry about how much detail spray I use when the gallon is there. Uber and Speed my two favorite products

Re: Dilution for pre soak
This is going to sound funny, but all suggestion are correct. lol
Rinseless solution is nice for breaking up that light film.
Waterless solution does a great job at encapsulating heavier buildup.
Detail spray is excellent when you want the extra shine, and believe me, you WILL notice the difference in gloss with the pretreat.
BTW, the clay lube solution also works well for glass cleaning. Just the right amount of cleaning power, without being too heavy (smears) or too weak (hazy).

Re: Dilution for pre soak
I used the 128:1 last night for a presoak on my rather dusty car and it seemed to work OK. I'm using 256:1 in the bucket for extra slickness.
BrutalNoodle, I agree about the 128:1 for glass. Worked great!

Re: Dilution for pre soak
Pretty good for maintenance, right? Of course when dealing with some serious/stubborn stuff that's when you pull out a dedicated product. The best in my arsenal is Scholl Concepts Ice Glass Cleaner Gel. Was really hopping to see it when the line was carried here on AG.
If you have some CG V7 & D114, try: 1 part D114 (from 1:128) with 1 part V7. Good stuff. Super slippery & leaves the glass very glossy. Mixture courtesy of fly07sti.
BTW, I've just now noticed you're in Vegas! Ha, no wonder you mentioned dealing with residue. With the crazy & dry tempt, no wonder your experience is a bit more colorful than others. AG should send you stuff to test out. If products do well there, it'd more than likely do well for out door detailers.

Re: Dilution for pre soak
Free stuff would be great! And yes, the high heat with lack of humidity makes for unique challenges.
I do have D114 and CG Matte detailer. It's probably V-07 without the gloss enhancers. Using it for window tint and nav screens now and am happy so far.
I may try your mix and see how it goes.
