Thanks for watching and commenting. Are you referring to the drying or washing towel?

@@ripclean The washing towels. And can be used also for many things, sealant application, interior... I believe it would be very convenient to have a small rag

Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. I sounds like you have a great process.

Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. Great question. Typically you can rinse the sponge several times in a clean 1/2 bucket of SlickX, ring it out, outside the bucket and place it in a closable storage container of Ziplock bag to keep moist in-between washes.

@@ripcleanthanks! To clarify- do you let the sponge dry? Or leave it damp and keep it in the bag to keep IN moisture? Or keep out? Thanks

Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Make sure you go back and watch the video thoroughly to understand the two different methods and their advantages. When wet-wiping a SlickX treated surface with a a clean Plush Microfiber towel that is soaked in SlickX, the towel would not be loaded with dirt. Each towel has two sides. Each side when bi-folded will have 4 clean panels per side to wipe. Each single panel will have five clean wiping sides, when including the center of the of each panel. You should not be wiping dirt across your car when done properly. After you have used all 8 panels you discard the Plush Microfiber towel to the dirty pile or empty bucket. You never reintroduce a dirty towel into your clean SlickX solution. Hopefully, that helps. We use either tool (Sponge or Plush Microfiber towel) depending on our customers and the situation.

Idea is you only use one sponge but many towels. In the end sponge method makes solution dirty, and towel method makes media dirty; both methods remove dirt from car, technically microfiber is safer.

Made quick work of this snack!

Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a kind comment. More to come.

Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. SlickX is designed to reveal your cars shine but without leaving a significant layer of protection. We accomplished this with a delicate balance of SiO2 in our blend.

Thank you very much! Trying to do our best to remove the fear of cleaning upholstery and showing how easy and effective it can be with the right chemicals.

Thanks for watching and commenting. Great question. It's actually just the opposite. SlickX breaks down/emulsifies the dirt and allows it to be safely carried away from the car surface on to the Ultra Premium microfiber towel. As you can see in the video, once I have used every panel of the Ultra Premium microfiber towel, I set it aside. I do not reintroduce into the bucket or on the car. I wash the towels later. SlickX does what it is supposed to do, emulsify, encapsulate and lubricate. The Ultra Premium microfiber towel does what it is supposed to do which is safely remove the dirt from the car surface.

It gets the job done! Minimal effort required with chemicals this great!

Definitely! One of the principle reasons for the creation of the Better Extractor was to have a set up that allowed people to more efficiently clean their furniture. We use it to personally clean our own couches! Additionally a lot of homeowners use it to clean their personal furniture as well as couch flippers refurbishing couches.

Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Absolutely true a grit guard is not necessary with this method. We multi-purpose the Phantom Clear Bucket with foam washes so the grit guard remains in the bucket, not to mention the grit guard comes with the bucket. In terms of the amount of solution needed, you can complete the same single rinseless wash with 2 to 3 gallons of water and a SlickX dilution of 1/2 ounce per every gallon of water.

Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. Maximum or peak horse power is less of a concern. More of concern is the minimum recommended horse power which is 2 to 3 horse power.

@@ripclean Is this good for car detailing, and can I revert it to a shopvac from an extractor?

@@ripclean Also can I use a 12 gallon Ridgid wet/dry shopvac instead of the 4 gallon one

Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. The cleanliness of the water is not a judgement of quality, simply a comparison using both methods, which both methods (sponge or microfiber) are effective. It just comes down to personal preference. In terms of how many microfiber towels are used, that is dependent on the dirt level of the vehicle being cleaned. This car would take 5 RipClean Ultra Plush Premium microfiber towels to clean the body, which is typical given each towel presents 8 total clean wiping panels when folded as we demonstrated in the video. We'll use no more than 3 of our standard pile microfiber towels to clean and dry the tires and wheels.

Thanks for watching and commenting. Yes, that is definitely an option to use 1 liter for the pump and 1 liter for the towels. A person could use the Hercules drying towel to wipe the interior, it would certainly do the job. We prefer a tighter weave of microfiber for interior wipe down, but that's our preference.

Inside scope. Stay tuned. It's coming really soon and it will be a lot less than $300. Make sure you're subscribed to see and order it first.

@@ripclean bruh!!!! Can’t wait

If you're drying rental cars and you're pressed for time and don't care about the car surface, maybe?

Thanks for watching and commenting. You’re correct the rinseless sponge does a great job of releasing dirt, that is why once all the panels of the Ultra Plush microfiber towel has been used, it’s not introduced back into the SlickX rinseless solution in the bucket, which is why the SlickX solution in the bucket is always clean and can be reused on the next rinseless wash.

Thanks for watching and commenting. I absolutely agree with you on re-use of the rinseless solution. And yes, rinseless and more specifically SlickX is a game changer.

No professional detailer would shamwow a customers car. You’re asking to mess up their paint. Literally every detailer who knows what their doing uses a proper drying towel or a blower. If you can’t get results with a twisted loop drying towel, you’re doing it wrong. (This is a rebranded marked up product though)

Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. We've been just about all over the country, and I'll assure you there are tens of thousands, if not millions of professional detailers not only in U.S. but all over the free world that aer using premium 70/30 microfiber towels to dry their and their customers vehicles. Yes, there are some that use air to blow trapped water out of the seams after towel drying also. Many customers with premium Ceramic coating dry first with a premium microfiber towel then use air to remove trapped water. Of course as a preference, you can dry the entire car, ceramic coated or not with air. It's a choice. We encourage the community to do however and whatever they feel fits their needs. There is no best way. But a Premium 70/30 microfiber towel is far cheaper than a decent leaf blower. By the way, we sell a lot of Hercules towels to some pretty big auto detailing shops around the world.

Thanks for watching and commenting. Marolex is great manual pump sprayer. You can spend more time spraying and less time pumping.

Thanks for watching and commenting. Definitely a personal preference. We prefer to towel dry first and then blow out cracks and crevices. Many of our clients cars are not ceramic coated.

Thanks for watching and commenting. All good brands. Our goal from day one and forever forward is delivering pro products without the pro price without compromise, so that everyone can afford to treat their car like a pro. It sounds like you have a great process in place.

Thanks for watching and commenting. You are correct proper technique is crucial. One element overlooked by many when rinseless washing is the quality of the rinseless solution as part of that technique or process. A rinseless solution not only must emulsify (breakdown) as well as capture (encapsulate) the dirt. It must provide a sufficient barrier of lubrication for the contact wash, while leaving negligible added waxy protection. This is an extremely delicate balance in a bottle. More chemical engineering than most people realize. We would agree, when using a dedicated rinseless sponge a grit/dirt guard it's essential when the sponge is being rinsed in the bucket. The other factor is the quality and forgiveness of the microfiber towel. I'm always surprised by those who use a standard pile microfiber towel to conduct a rinseless wash. It certainly increases the risk of marring, especially if using an inferior rinseless product. It sounds like you have a great process in place. Let us know when you get a chance to try SlickX. We welcome your report.

I've definitely had some success with that. Soaking rags for a few hours, swishing them around with my grit guard 4-5 times, definitely got my detergent worked through them. If you have multiple buckets I'd have one or 2 with just water, but when I would just rinse them out with a hose, it would leave reasonably soil rags clean and smooth. I also had a bucket of degreaser at like 20 or 30:1 for discarding my rags into as I used them.

Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. Yes, but it is dependent on the rinseless solution being used, and type of microfiber towel. What type of rinseless and what type of microfiber?

@@ripclean rinseless = polymer based/ towel = edgeless 600 Gsm

Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. We're glad you're enjoying your Hercules drying towel.

¡Amamos a Puerto Rico! ¡Te encantará la toalla de secado Hércules!

Thanks for watching and for your question. You can absolutely use tap water. SlickX does a great job of conditioning and softening the water. No need for distilled water but no problem if you want to use it either.

Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment. So, you want to see what Impact does on at totally neglected, uncared for wheel? We call those "disaster details". Impact will clean up the wheel and it will make it look better with less elbow effort than without it. Impact is not magic, just great chemical engineering. A wheel that's been etched and marred by years of neglect and accumulated brake dust and oil and whatever else that has eaten into the wheel coating, it will not resurrect that wheel. A car with a few months in-between wheel washes with accumulated dust, Impact will make that wheel sparkle!

Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. You're absolutely right! It never is a fair comparison with nearly any other machine when you stick the BetterExtractor hose kit on the end of a 4 to 6 horsepower everyday shop vac. Many people don't seem to get it, but you absolutely did.

Thanks for watching. Great comment! Yes, it comes down to personal preference, and yes, great point, you will have to wash the towels when using the microfiber towel rinseless wash method, which I wash with my Hercules drying towels after I have used 12 or more Ultra Plush microfiber towels. And yes, those 12 towels will cost me initially up front, and we only use them on the exterior. For interior and wheel and tire, we use the our standard pile microfiber towels and they don't need to be that wet. It does come down to where you want your advantages. It sounds like you have a great process! I'll use either method depending on the circumstance and conditions. Thanks again for watching and leaving comment. More rinseless videos to come!

Thanks for watching. A blade offers no forgiveness on paint. We wouldn't suggest anyone use a squeegee on good car paint. Squeegee's are for windows and rental cars you don't care much about.

@@ripclean I used a super soft blade for 5 years on black paint, which is the least forgiving. You may not be aware of what's available on the market, there sport. Maybe take a glance.

Both methods work, but 9 out of 10, I'm using the Ultra Plush Microfiber towel for rinseless. Do you prefer to use one bucket or two bucket method?

@@ripclean I use multiple microfiber towels with a single bucket. Rinseless solution in the bucket stays clean.

I dislike the extra time I have to spend on laundry and towel care. The sponge is zero fuss

@@matsudakodo It's easy, I just throw the used microfiber rags in the washer and leave them to hang dry. Done!

Great question. No, the car does not have to be ceramic coated for better results. The quality of your car wash soap will dictate additional slickness during drying. We prefer our Blizzard Snow foam for its excellent cleaning power, lubrication and easy rinse off. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment. We wanted to demonstrate both methods using our Ripclean Phantom Clear 5 gallon buckets, so viewers could see for themselves and decide just as you did. You can purchase SlickX, our Plush microfiber towels and Phantom clear buckets on the Ripclean.com website.

Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. Do you find yourself using the multiple towel method more or is it just situational? When you do use the sponge, are you using the one or two bucket method?

@@ripcleanin recent times I use the multiple towel method because it is more efficiënt. I always use the one bucket method
