    Ever since using DIY Detailing Rinse Less Wash V2 for the first time this weekend, I have been filling up every empty pump sprayer I can find with it. I even have a bottle of it sitting on my computer desk to spray on a plush microfiber to clean my desk and monitors! I love the smell!

    I really gotta say, that you both really can explain your product so very well! I could go to just your product, since it is so much better than the "prosumer" products, and from what I have purchased, it is so much better than anything that I have used; I love your product, but the shipping cost is just too much. I still use some of your products, but I haven't gotten past the shipping costs to what I can use via some local "prosumer products" available to me at a local store, I just have to stay with some of them. I recently bought two spray bottles at approx. 18 to 20 dollars a bottle and shipping was $16! Not sure if the cost is related to Hazardous shipping or not, but it's just a tuff pill to swallow.

    What's the difference between ceramic gloss versus quick beads as a drying agent/protector after a rinse-less wash, and does the recommendation change if your car is ceramic coated? How often would you apply those after?

    • @diydetailofficial
      @diydetailofficial  Месяц назад

      The difference is the application method. To use DIY Detail Quick Beads you need to rinse the rinse less away before using DIY Detail Quick Beads. Use as often as you want

    Hi fellas. Yasir from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia here. If, let's say, I have ceramic coating on my vehicle, and a week later, after the ceramic coating application was done, I washed the vehicle and applied a layer of wax on top of the ceramic coat, will it help in terms lessening the etching of bird poo?

    • @diydetailofficial

      The coating itself provides better protection than the paint, or wax.

    • @diydetailofficial

      Drying aids are products that provide lubrication for your towel and help displacing water,
      DIY Detail Rinseless Wash by itself is a drying aid.
      If washing with DIY Detail Rinseless Wash, DIY Detail Quick Beads can be used as a spray and wipe( if you don’t have access to a hose.
      You can also use DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss and DIY Detail Waterless Wash as drying aids

    Hi guys, I just want to say thank you so much for your guys' useful products and helpful videos.
    I've been binging your videos over the past week and finally did my first rinseless wash, decontamination, polish, and ceramic coatings (The Stack) in my underground parking lot.
    I have a few questions though:
    1. I noticed that my ceramic coating application pads still have that solvent smell and that greasy feel even after soaking them in a bucket of rinseless wash (256:1). Can I wash the application pads with something like Dawn or liquid Tide to get rid of the smell and greasy feel?
    2. What's my timeframe to fix high spots without polishing and then reapplying the ceramic coatings?
    Thanks again for your guys' hard work and dedication to making auto detailing easier for enthusiasts like myself

      It works very well with Iron Remover as your lubricant. Following this process, rinse the paint and then spray on Water Spot Remover, let it dwell and rinse off. That's a great way to decon/unclog a coating. We have a full tutorial here: ruclips.net/video/V66FkbKZzv4/видео.html

  • @macallanvintage
    @macallanvintage 9 месяцев назад +2

    The difficult part is the residual birdbomb stain that had etched into the clearcoat and could not be chemically removed or via claying.
    Even worse….on a COATED paintwork.
    Some sort of machine polishing or hand polishing will be needed and this abrasive action will certainly remove the coating partially or completely.

    Hi Yvan and Nick, I tried this method. It works for 99% of cases. But I have one spot, where I have a bird bomb that is a black dot. And it is really hard, no matter how much no rinse wash I add. It is not lubricating it. It will not come off. Do you have any suggestions what can I do in this case?(It seems like it is burned in the clear coat just for reference)

    • @diydetailofficial
      @diydetailofficial  9 месяцев назад +1

      It’s quite possible it has burned through the clear coat. If it stained from the bird eating berries, a week in the sun will bleach out the stain.
