Little did we know this was the beginning of DIY Detail
Yeah I just found this video again lol.
Same 😂
I cracked up when you guys called this a dirty car. No disrespect. I run my business out of rural West Virginia. This is a clean car to me. Love Yvan - Love the content. Happy Detailing!
I used to live in Clarksburg. Where are you at?
@@HawkProDetailing No kidding! I'm in White Sulphur Springs. If you're familiar with The Greenbrier resort it's in town. Small world.
I’m from Quebec, I also know what you’re talking about. My 26 locations all offered hand washing, always a Rinseless.
This is what is dirty dang this a maintenance dirty for me
@@Detailers-Business-Academy Does the 3 gallons added for the Dilution need to be distilled?
I've been doing mobile detailing and started exclusively doing interiors. Realizing I was leaving money on the table and was not getting some customers who wanted both, I started doing exteriors, with little experience outside of using a car wash. Having started with very little money, I spent about $300 on chemicals, a cheap but quality pressure washer, and an upgraded pressure washer hose. However I realized that my setup time at a job site was so much longer JUST based around the pressure washer. When running as a business, and considering I love extremely efficient systems, I went on a long journey into this whole realm. This system that you have right here is just immaculate. You just did an entire car in what it would take me to do 2 tires. I'm picking up a Ryobi 600 psi cordless power sprayer and going to use this EXACT method. My thinking is, if the pressure sprayer has it's bottles set up properly, I can do the pre-treatment with ONR and another bottle with APC for the tires, without having to even spend time or energy pumping it. Also I've been using wash mitts and I don't like the amount of energy output due to ergonomics, so the sponge seems perfectly built for a hand to grasp firmly and apply properly. Sorry for the book, just wanted to say Yvan is such a genius, big fan of yours and thank you again for the great content!
How has that Ryobi worked for you? I have that one as well, it works well. A little chinzy but it works.
I been detailing my car and customers all winter. This is by far the best and quickest way to wash a vehicle. I have a black Camary and have not noticed any increase of scratches. This is a great video. Thanks guys.
What a 💎 of a video! Love the team combo and now the company you represent/own. Thank you!
I’ve seen Ivan do this so many times over the years, I could probably recite this word for word! I follow’s method to the letter and it works.
Haha it's always comforting to hear his voice explain rinslesless .....it's a familiar reminder to come back home to simplicity 🤣
Thank you.
The other thing to remember with rindless is the time saved on getting out and putting away the pressure washer etc
Thanks for this demonstration, I love this method of cleaning. I will be using this video to help explain to people why I use this method on vehicles.
Thanks to the two of you and this video I gave rinseless washing a try and love it. I was able to wash my car at 4am (when everyone else in the house was sleeping), in the garage without drainage, and when it was 40 degrees and raining outside.
Awesome!
that sounds lovely ngl
I do love ONR been using it for several years now. It was great to meet you a few times at events like Detail fest. I do 90% of my Detailing with ONR. Having seen a couple cars over the years , I know this wasn't washed in 3 months, but most of my customers have cars that havent been washed in 1 month and are way dirtier, and ONR still does a fantastic job.
So glad I found this guy and the product. I just bought some rinse less and look forward to trying it. I like to wash my car 2 times per week; this will save me a lot of time and water.
I learn something from every video I watch from you! Thank you!
Great video! Welcome back! I am always learning something new from Yvan!
Cheers!
Thank you.
After watching your videos a few years ago I got rid of soap and the foam cannon and went to rinseless! You’ve saved me so much time and I get better results!
I'm a huge fan and voucher of rinseless right now the mckees n914 works with the sponge. Smells great and his method is very efficient, easy and safe. I need to pick up the brush but huge fan of rinseless. I always learn something new. This was an amazing video!
Thank you.
I'm going to make an educated guess - that the 'experimental product' actually turned out to be the DIY Detail Rinseless Wash? ;)
Great video format! and you guys have great camera chemistry as well as relaxing and not screaming at the video either. Great presentation and example! I may have to consider rinseless now
You won’t regret it 👍
one thing I've recently found saving me about 30 mins in our maintenance washes.. is adding ONR to our water tank .. 1. ONR pressure pre-rinse 2. drying Aid with microfiber 3. ceramic sealant = Done ! Give it a try ! love ONR
What sealant
@@Timsautosolutions Technicians Choice TEC582 Ceramic Detail Spray
Ive used.. its good!
Subbed! I love how you showcase real life scenarios keep the content coming
Thanks!!
The other day I did two vans a promaster City and the tall promaster one. Regular wash on the tall van and rinseless on the small. I was honestly impressed on how it removed the road film. These were white workvans that were beige and went back to white. When the owner arrived he couldn't tell the difference as to what was washed by hand or by onr.
Hey thanks Yvan my man, and this is the first I've seen from Hawk Detailing, thank you,
Awesome video nick! Just shared this video in the apex detail support Facebook group!
Thanks man!
Thank you for sharing.
This was one of my fav vids you guys have done…so relaxing
This is GOLD!
I've been looking at starting a mobile detailing business based on ONR and rinseless....this is exciting and amazing content! This is definitely the push I needed
Thank you!
Been doing Rinseless only since I discovered it, haven't used car soap once since 5 years ago and I detail full time and no it's not cheap car washing, I work on high end vehicles, luxury daily drivers and show cars. Never had a single complaint about using Rinseless and some clients even brag about how "my detail guy can clean my car without a water hose".
@@theoneders2056 That's amazing! I love that you made a business of it and are killin it!
@@theoneders2056 how did you get your name out there if you don’t mind me asking
@@LolLol-uk2jc network network network. When you're first starting you're gonna have a lot of down time if you're not established, so use that time and hit the road and drop your business cards in real estate offices, someone you may see at a parking lot with a nice vehicle and never approach trying to sell them, simply make them aware you're the detailer in the area in case they ever need anything and that's it. Go the extra mile in making sure whatever customers you have you're doing the job right the first time, don't over book yourself so that you're not rushing things and very important, work on your own personal development, customer service and communication skills. You can be a great detailer, but if you look, talk and behave unprofessional, it's a big turn off for people and one of the main things my clients comment on is my customer service. What's funny is that I'm not a "YES MAN", I'm firm but I'm fair and I listen to their concerns.
Post on your local neighborhood Facebook groups if allowed but don't be spammy, post on the Nextdoor App and every single time you finish a job, ask them to leave you a review if they're happy with the work and if not to let you know. Have a website and a Google page. A website can be a big selling point for some people, the right client will want to know about you before even considering you, so a website helps as a presentation before they decide to contact you. Gotta have money saved up to cover bills for 6 months just in case cause typically, unless you already have a strong supporting network, you're gonna have to struggle for that 1st year or longer. Most quit, but some of us see it as a marathon and keep at it. Be frugal with your spending, don't fall into the trap of buying every fancy chemical out there and stick to what's giving you results until you can afford to experiment with something else IF you feel like it could make you more efficient.
I have a couple of clients who live in condo complexes that have "rules" about washing cars. I turned them on to rinseless washing and taught them how to do it in their garages.
So stoked to see you two collaborate again. I've been hunting for a great video like this to send friends and family
I kinda forgot how much fun it is to collaborate with Yvan, he's a master at the instructional videos
Always fun to collaborate with Nick!
Not all of my coating clients end up on the maintenance program or taking me up on the "wash-n-learn" package I offer. This video is exactly what I want to send to those customers to help coax them away from the automatic brush tunnels. So quick and safe and I love that you went start to finish instead of the usual of just demo-ing on a single panel.
@@davidruggles996 thanks, it’s been a request for a few years, but finding the time, and a car you could actually se the dirt on was the challenge.
I wish I knew about rinseless washing a month ago. I bought a pressure washer, foam cannon, stubby gun, the whole kit and caboodle. I wash my cars weekly and my water bill is a lot higher and I spend a good amount of time on these cars, I love cleaning them but don’t always want to. I think I may be a rinseless convert, I’ll see this weekend. Thanks for the lesson gents.
Nothing wrong with doing both. Rinse less is great when you are limited for time or access to water. Also when it’s too hot. And the fact you can do wheels with rinseless too is amazing stuff !
I've been doing rinseless all winter. I rinse the cars at the car wash with a pressure washer first. I've learned from this video that this method is a no-no. I'll try the pre-soak then do a standard rinseless wash with three gallons of water and onr(which I love).
A quick pre-rinse can help.
@@iKegDetail2 good plan.
Ive been using Greenstar as a pre spray 10:1, rinse and then a waterless wash (go to Mckees sio2 RW/WW) comes out fantastic.
@@Jeeper1378can greenstar remove hybrid wax?
Great content. Sharing immediately. I love rinse less washing. I'm still amazed at people that don't believe in it but they'll jump on any other silly fad that comes along. Like foam cannons and 2 bucket washing. Learn Rinseless washing and see how much time you save. Thanks Yvan.
Thanks Dale, those who don’t « believe » in Rinseless usually have never tried it.
Use 2 bucket method for the rinseless wash and you can wash 2-3 cars with the same water
2 bucket isn't a silly fad lmao
I've tried rinseless. It's okay but I seldom do it unless it's very cold. I prefer a cheap foamer attached to garden hose. No pressure washer. I do my entire car in twenty minutes or less. Although the amount of protection on my car reduces drying to a minimum. It almost dries itself.
I see this working for a car that has some protection on it. And not too outrageous dirty. Or that has salt on it.
But I love the idea of efficiency. And not being too scared of some dirt/scratching. As long as you're being smart about it.
For daily drivers. This is would be the way I think.
If it’s dirty/ has accumulation, just like with soap, rinse it off first.
After doing years of a classic bucket wash, I finally pull the trigger on a rindless wash setup.
So, what is your verdict now, after 7 month rinseless washing ?
@@tt-rs1457 I exclusively use rinseless wash on my vehicle now.
Now we know why they didn't show the label! Hahaaaa! This was DIY before it was DIY! Love it!!! Great video, Guys! All the best! And, Thanks for putting out awesome products and assistance to all of us!
You bet 😀
I’ve been doing the rinse less wash over 3 years. Like watching your videos
Thank you!
You two collaborate very well together. 👍🏼
Thanks!
Thank you
i use primarily ONR on my black car, a big advantage is not fighting the water coming out of every seem in the car, when i do pre rinse, i pre spray with ONR then pressure wash
That's such a time savings to not fight drips for 30 minutes
The Ivan reflection with the water spots 😂28:27
9 months later, diy was born
Exactly how I do maintenance washes, I use the big red sponge with onr rinseless wash
Best thing about rinseless is being able to do it comfortably in the garage away from the elements!
Great video guys! Recommendations for a drying lube please?
It almost always takes me close to an hour to rinseless wash & dry my '17 Accord but I usually pre-treat it one panel at a time with ONR, ONRW&W, or if it's really dirty I use Opti-Clean or (soon to be replaced by) Ultima Waterless Wash. My '95 Civic doesn't take as long, of course :) However, I did recently purchase a foam cannon for using 3D Pre-Soak when I feel like using such a procedure, mainly for when wheel wells and the like need a good scrubbing.
Do you find ultima more effective than opticlean or just cheaper?
@@ryeguy01 I haven't gotten around to using the Ultima yet since I still have a bunch of Opti-Clean, but I did purchase it because the net cost per gallon of solution is roughly one-third that of Opti-Clean.
I think Yvan needs to post a video of him detailing the RV. My back hurts just thinking about it.
Here’s one of washing, and coating it.
ruclips.net/video/IkUabuwgQ1Q/видео.html
I'm sold, just ordered ONR and a sponge, unfortunately the ultra black sponge is sold out. I was using the foam cannon and two bucket system and knicked my paint, somehow. Similar to a stone chip, so now I have to apply touchup. After sadness, I found this video. Time to try something new.
Thanks Hawk & Yvan! Haven't seen Hawk in awhile, have you been on youtube or have they not been sending me your videos? For those of us who live in the wintry part of the US, A rinseless wash is the only option we have for several months. If I don't pre-treat the car, I can wash my car 8 to 10 times in a gallon of ONR. So washing your car with 32 oz of ONR, about $20.00, I can wash between 500 -600 cars. WOW!
Hey man! Been sorting out some personal stuff (Life, am I right?) but I'm excited to get back to youtube. I love the videos, I just had to take care of other things and spend time on myself as well
@@HawkProDetailing Hope everything is settled down for you now & you are in a better place Nick.
That is DEFINITELY DIY Rinseless Wash!!
Great video
With all the water issues in the West, this makes SO much sense (other than that "It's a Subaru" slam! Yes, I forgive you ;)
Great video for me who not can wash car on parking place, the house owner do not allow it. Many thanks from Sweden 👍
I use rinseless exclusively for my business. Never see any swirls, scratches, or any other word thrown out there. I know “dirt” is now a debated topic apparently, and region dependent. You could have a salt covered car but someone from the jungle whos been mudding in 10ft trenches will say “tHatS nOt rEal DiRt!!!!”
Rinseless users have made the claim that is safe, effective, and easy. Have even shown you can incorporate APC, pressure washers, whatever makes you comfortable. The burden of proof was on said users and has been given multiple times.
Now, all the people making the claim rinseless scratches, soap “cleans more” (btw what the heck does cleans more mean? I understand the literal words but if the dirt is off the car how can you clean it _more_?) have the burden of proof to show evidence that rinseless scratches or is not getting the car clean. But they never do. There are countless videos showcasing Rinseless but you never see any videos showing how it’s bad from people who don’t like it. Get your head out of your arse and out of your ego of thinking you know everything and just try the dang bottle of ONR already!
Love this comment! I'm trying to start a mobile detailing business and keep it rinseless, ONR, minimal water, and simple startup. Great help with this!
@@PhilRuybal fun tip: go to lowes and pick up the Husqvarna brand 2 gallon sprayer. It is allegedly rated @ 80PSI. Not sure if that’s quite true but it’s the strongest pump sprayer I’ve found. I can fill that with 2 gallons of ONR pre spray, and use it to pre treat 3 sedans and rinse off APC from the tires with it. Underrated sprayer that gets trumped by detailing branded ones.
@@stephen1503 thanks for that tip!! Awesome
AMEN!
One question, how did you get your name out there
Super travail, merci 👌👍🙋
Been using these rinse less type of washes for years. I use a two gallon bug sprayer to apply . Optimum No Rinse Wash & Wax is the best by far!
Does the ONR Wash & Wax allow you to skip buying the drying aid?
@@GanNing221 I don't think so as when I use it with my bug sprayer I simply wipe it off and it's dry. Takes about 15 minutes to do an average size car or pickup truck.
@@GanNing221 a Rinseless wash doesn’t require a drying aid, but if you want to use one, feel free.
Great job
Out of curiosity. Could you use the ONR as a presoak and then use a pressure washer instead of wiping as an agitation? I know it defeats the purpose of ONR but I'm trying to find ways to do a touchless wash on my maintenance washes.
Yes, if you have a pressure washer or even a hose available, that’s the way to go.
Can you link the wheel and body brush please ?
I love the learning that comes from Yvan and Nick collaborating. We all benefit from this content, so thank you!
I’m ready to launch my mobile business and seriously considering going completely rinseless. I think the low level of water required and not messing up folks’ lawns and driveways trying to eradicate a massive ‘snow storm’ created by foaming/pressure washing should be attractive to customers, as well as the noise abatement. I’m targeting a somewhat affluent golf club/marina community. But thought that customers might think there car isn’t clean because I didn’t use a traditional method has crossed my mind, however. Any marketing suggestions?
Your customers a paying for a result, not a process.
Rinse less is a nice convenience but its really not going to cover everything, your going to need a pressure washer with access to water if you want to seriously consider mobile detailing. As mentioned, you are not marketing a procedure, your customer could careless,
Good luck LOL.
How are you going to clean carpeted wheel wells without a pressure sprayer/water?
@@yukonstriker1703 tool for every job. Rinse less for 95% of the jobs. Results are all that matters to customers.
@@Detailers-Business-Academy your customers are paying for scratches & swirls 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I Rinseless wash a 200 car dealer lot and it usually takes me around 30 minutes to wash, dry, and clean wheels on a similar size crossover
200 cars in 30 minutes that’s impressive 😱
@@MoparMarc426 can you do 2,000 cars in 60 minutes 😱😱
What media do you use and which one in particular?
Make a video
@@tsyriac I use the ultra black sponge
Great video, I'm definitely going to try rinseless, and thanks for the links. One question what is the Drying Lubricant that Yvan uses? It seems to be a significant part of the process.
He was using a prototype version of this: diydetail.com/products/ceramic-gloss
Good demo. Can you comment or maybe do a demo on a vehicle that lives in the country not in the city and you have a little more incrustation around the wheels. Could you use an all purpose cleaner or rinseless wash spray first and let it soak in then rinse it off without agitation and then go back and do the rinseless wash with a sponge?
Is the all purpose cleaner for the wheels and the restless car wash product for the paint and windows the same product?
Quick question for a newbie. Is this process still viable with a vehicle that has the front end PPF wrapped and the whole vehicle ceramic coated?? If so then I’m gonna be one happy guy!!!
Thank you for the video. I just subscribed to your RUclips channel 😀!
What drying agents are you using Plz x
Is There’s still a need for DI water if your mobile doing rinse less washes ?
Love this video. But what about all the wax that’s left on the floor? Well residue I should say.
Hi, and thanks for a great video. I’ve seen something like this before when I watched Yvan at Pan T.O. and thought the video was an eye-opener. In your opinion: What would be the best washing process if you had a typically, dirty Norwegian/Swedish car in front of you? That car has asphalt stains, salt, road grime and iron-based contaminants. And all this kind of contamintions are almost like glued to the paint on a daily driven car in our countries during the winter-time. Here in Norway, a typical wash process in the winter would be something like this:
· Koch Chemie Teerwasche A
· Alkaline foam
· Let it do it’s work and rinse
· Wash the car with a two-bucket-method
· Dry the car
Any thoughts?
I think with an exceptionally dirty car that you might need to clay....it can still be done but you just need to factor in some kind of spray...whether your trigger finger lol, a dedicated punk sprayer....or an actual pressure washer, you'll just have a lot more "rinsing" to do. This method is great for a regular wash but with severe fallout you'll be using some kind of iron remover and clay so it's just a matter of dealing with that slurry. You could just heavily spray with rinseless and wipe off. Or have a few gallons of distilled water to flush panel if u don't have hose access
Would you be able to give me a a list of all the tools and products used in this video.
You guys might want to do a demonstration using my 2010 Subaru Outback. It gets a bath when it rains and it is parked outside at work. No paint swirls though.
Lol where are you located
is that a home-made dolly? i know Yvan makes his own "grit guard" with the 2 buckets-- but i like that the dolly looks like it can hold the wheel and body brush on the side.
When I use the sponge in my detailing business it's amazing until I run into things like bee poop (those small yellow circles) and things of that nature thay require a bit more pressure I would like to go back to using the sponge any way to get around this ?
Keep a MF towel or bug scrubber in your bucket for such anomalies.
What product was in the spray he used for wiping?
Timely video! I was just re-watching some of these older videos with Yvan then a new one pops up the next morning!
Recently saw a video of two employees at a detail shop wash a car that supposedly took 30 minutes. A rinseless wash in my garage takes the same amount of time and doesn't take two people. Two of me could easily do the job in 10 minutes.
Crazy question... Say I used my iron remover as my clay lubricant. Would it be a terrible idea to buff off the iron remover with car wax?
With iron remover, rinsing is required.
Since converting to rinseless, i save time and can easily dry a pickup with a towel half this size, without streaks.
I didn't realize how much I missed rinseless until we did this video...just the time with master blaster blowing out the water....fighting drips etc ...takes forever
Excellent!
I noticed how the apc foam got onto the brake discs and inside of the rim. Is that safe to leave it unrinsed like that?
Reflection of Yvan at 28:26 with some nice water spots lol. I love rinseless wash
Lol not permanent water spots just polymer spots
How do you rinseless wash neglected wheels ? Always the worst especially the barrels also the exterior in all the cracks is tough to clean out as well I’m going to try it though not sure yet
When it really has caked on dirt, Id prefer just regular cleaning w any wheel and tire cleaner and then pressure wash it off
I like system for one car, but if you have a limo company where vehicles are used daily and are washed daily... what system works best?
I have noticed after washing and drying vehicles waterspots and scratches and even discoloration is evident.
How would you advise me moving forward Ivan? Rinseless? To wax or not to wax?
Cars and suvs are easy to wash, then sprinters on the way up coach buses.
Feedback welcomed...
How do you identify hard water?
Thanks for insight.
How do you strip wax off a vehicle with a rinsless before a paint correction or before applying a new protection?
Dove Dishwashing liquid.......
What is the best rinse less wash and dry spray you recommend thanks for the advice 👍
The one you like to use.
I have a link to ONR in the description it's quite good
Is rinseless wash good for prewash before clay bar and eventually applying a graphene coating?
Thanks,
Greg
Rinseless wash is good before you apply any paint protection, do any paint correction or paint decontamination.
I feel like you were pointing out flaws. I saw a lot of spots when you said look at that shine, also when you pointed out the wheel wells. I dunno
Hey guys just did this same wash using my new UBS gotta say im mad i tried every microfiber mitt before it, way better dirt lifting and it just glides across the paint with n914!
So say i let my apc of choice dry up in the sun on my gloss black rims, what would be the chemical route of removing slight staining?
Try rewetting with the same APC.
@@Detailers-Business-Academy
Worked great, i was nervous for a second hahah. Thanks for all the tips and education!
How about the wheels and tires... Cleaning the inside of the wheels with various brushes, scrubbing the tires to take off old dressing before applying a new dressing.
I can see this for a car that is barely driven but a daily driver is a different story.. Just a thought
At 28:24, when we get a close-up, the door panel is quite dirty.
I am trying to help my elder family members with washing their cars, but it is very much time and labor-consuming. I did regular car washes for them and it is very time/effort prohibitive work. Would you please suggest a better/best methods (not the car wash places, of course ;) ) to wash cars, saving time and labor/energy? Thank you and thank you for your videos.
I agree with everything and I’m a huge Rinseless fan, but I also like to foam from now n then. Ivan actually said, he foamed the wheels because the bubbles are agitating for him. So, if you use a good cleaning FOAMER soap, then as the Bubbles burst it’s adding new cleaning formula according to Yvan.
I love Rinseless but never talk down to FOAMER either. It’s all preference.
Exactly, have fun, and clean a car, that’s what it’s all about.
@@Detailers-Business-Academy u da man!
@@DetailingBreakdown thank you!
Marolex sprayer is damn amazing. I just switched from another (more expensive) brand and it runs circles around the old one.
Nice to see Yvan demonstrating proper rinseless techniques! I do wonder what's best drying aid as my TRC eagle towels ___really__ drag during drying (I use Optimum Hyper-seal new formula every 3 months or so but not as a drying aid). Only time I 'foam" my car is during its maintenance wash and that is with Optimum M-wash, rinsed, and then ONR'd for insurance (car has Optimum Pro+ on it).
Ditch the junk Rag Co towels and use the Autofiber Dreadnought, you won't even need a drying aid cause they glide over the surface rather than being full of friction. Add a spritz of Optimum Gloss Enhancer and Detailing Spray and it'll be even more slick upon drying.
where does one buy these?
@@mattheviewer Amazon, Autofiber has a store there. The detail spray can also be bought on Amazon. Buy the 32oz or gallon since it's a concentrate and gets you more for the $. Mix it with filtered water.
What was the temp out there lol I couldn't leave foam on my wheels that long lol
I'm curious did he tell you what kind of APC was in there? I'd absolutely love to switch to one I could let dry and not destroy stuff
Many good APC’s from reputable detailing brands are safe.
Great video! I just to make sure I'm doing this right. I've got a black pickup and washing once the weather gets warmer is a challenge to keep wet. Am I fine to pre spray the whole truck, come back through and completely rinseless wash the truck and then dry? Obviously between these steps the pre spray and rinseless is going to dry completely. Thank you!
If you pre spray whole car I highly suggest distilled water to hedge against water spots
@@HawkProDetailing for the pre spray with rinseless wash solution I do use distilled water. Just not in my wash bucket.
@@StocklookinSS just the wash bucket
Distilled water in the pre spray you used in the beginning or in the bucket you used?
Cool, thanks a lot for this… hard Texas water makes car washing a royal pain! What do y’all think about ceramic coatings?
I like the bucket-dolly a lot, where can I buy this dolly from?
Unfortunately it’s no longer available.
Thanks for the video! What’s the best way to deal with the smaller details like emblems, window seals, grills, etc?
A wheel and body brush ( Nick can post an affiliate link) does a great job with rinseless.
I use a synthetic detail brush (like the quality ones from Detail Factory), dip it into my bucket, and wash the emblems just like you would any other time. Works fantastic, and now when you pass over it with your wash media the dirt will be removed.
Also, the ultra black sponge will clean the emblems most of the time. The fingers will wiggle out the dirt. For stubborn dirt and areas, the detail brush works great.
does the bucket not get contaminated when dunking in the dirty sponge
Cool stuff.
What APC did Yvan use here?
Two APCs links are posted under the description
Can you mix that ONR with a foam product into a foam gun
Great video by the way
@28:25 I still see spots?
@ 14:14 I thought the water beads were showing some sort of ceramic coat that the rinseless wash coats the paint with for extra protection? I didn't think that was dirt bubbles as he said. I noticed my new car has lots of beading and I don't want to destroy that film with cheap soap.
So what if you want to do a full detail? like preparing the car for a clear coat ? I doubt this will work
Can we use spray wax as drying aid?
Yes
It look like that rinseless wash did a good I just hate using the sponge it seems to not get the dirt off.
It does take....almost a suspension of your worst "thinking mind"....to make the jump. It's easy to get freaked out, but this method works....and it's especially good for you at home. Sure, the foam cannon etc is great but that's an hour MINIMUM in the driveway...plus chasing water drips etc. this method gets er done, and it's as safe as you make it. Every car wash method....I don't care how many mitts, how fancy the soap, how many buckets....will introduce some scratching. especially during the drying phase
Would drying a panel at a time be considered safer? I know there's no harm letting the rinseless solution dry on a panel, but couldn't it leave some dirt on the surface and then you don't have enough lubrication and encapsulation to safely remove it?
As long as the dirt was hit with either the presoak or the sponge applying the RW the dirt should be encapsulated. The drying aid will help as well but isn't necessary. Of course you could lightly mist with the RW solution before drying if it's in direct sunlight or the panel is heated for whatever reason.
What I do is pre rinse with solution, then wash entire car. Then respray panel with onr solution as I dry. I do this in 85 degree weather in the sun with no issue with water spots
