Armour Detail Hero and Adapt tested to see if waterless is the same as rinsless diluted as waterless

- A viewer posed an interesting question. If you take Hero and dilute it to a waterless wash as directed, is it similar to the Adapt waterless wash? In this video I test not only the recommended dilution, but several others and see if Hero and Adapt are similar, or vastly different.

Super cool video and testing! Similar findings to us, we have gone all the way to 5:1 with HERO with no issues of streaking. We recommend the 64:1 dilution as a more economical Waterless solution as you are still getting the cleaning power, and lubrication needed to perform a waterless function. We have lots of customers using the 15:1 dilution as a drying aid!
Is there any real difference as far as safety on the paint between adapt and hero as waterless? Or is the difference mainly the format it comes in and protection it leaves?
They seem like different chemical make ups.
@@jayhoughton558 Both will be equally as safe. Adapt will be slightly more lubricating, and leaves substantial hydrophobic protection behind. It builds in similar actives to our Ceramic Spray Sealant. ADAPT is designed to be a one and done product for a quick and easy wash/protect. It is more expensive, but there is a lot that goes into that formula. We have customers reporting it lasting months even in winter conditions, and outperforming many competitors spray sealants.
Thats Awesome! I just used HERO at 64:1 today for the first time and as a drying aid, and it was better than any rinseless ive ever used. I dont even need 15:1 but you got me curious
Can you awesome people sell the trigger sprayers as well. im looking everywhere for them?
This is what I needed to know thank you!
Forgot to mention, I have Adapt and it is a great product. Small size container but works excellent
I was wondering the same thing!
Awesome video! Love the testing in the sun!!
Mike: I just recieved Hero the other day. Will use shortly. Have you ever tried KCx Wf (Wash & Finish)? That's a great true waterless wash. Sold in 5 liter jugs only and you don't dilute.
I have not tried it yet. Have a lot of other KCx stuff though. I need to somehow figure out how to utilize 5l of AF.
Great video. It's nice to see a channel who presents useful information rather than information that is copied over and over again from other channels.
I appreciate that!
have you diluted DIY rinseless to these different concentrations? I wonder if their rinseless streaks
It does if you go lower than 256:1
I have not, but they do say use it 256:1 for everything. (clay towel lube, window cleaner, interior cleaner, waterless wash, and pad cleaner) The other brands give different dilution ratios for different uses. I'll keep the suggestion in mind for a future video though.
Their rinseless does streak if used in higher concentration than 256:1
"If they put this in the casino's, i would never leave" lmaoooo good one. great video again sir! - #54 subscriber
amazing video.. I was wondering exactly this question as I just ordered a bottle of hero but plan on using it as a waterless wash.. thanks so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you. Really interesting content you're coming out with. In other news, Hero has come to the UK! Yey!
I appreciate you watching, and I am sure they are cranking the HERO out as fast as possible.
Very well done!💯💪🏼
I like the comparisons you have been using. Nice and well explained videos. Keep it up!
Thank you very much!
Another great video.
Another really interesting test !
Glad you think so!
I am waiting for a company to make a spray product that enhances gloss while filling minor micro marring. Like a spray wax that fills like a paste wax.
That's the sole purpose of Meguiars Ultimate Insane Shine Paint Glosser. I haven't tried it so can't give you any feedback on it.
I tried some Lithium Color Crush on the hood of the SUV on Saturday and it seemed like it did hide some of the stuff I usually see in the sun, though I wasn't able to inspect at all angles. It was nice and slick feeling after. It rained overnight and it also had great beading. (Better than the gyeon coating I have on the car)
@@coreyh4947 i didn't even know this existed i will have to try it. When was it launched?
I honestly have no idea. I was buying another product they sell to test and wanted to add on enough product for free shipping. Figured a few month protection product would be worth trying.
Wow! Ask and I shall receive! Thanks for the video!
Any time!
Cool video!. Thanks for your great work. What if I want to use Adapt as a rinseles wash by diluting it?. Would it behave as hero but leaving SiO2 protection instead?
I personally would not. While many rinseless products can be diluted to use as a waterless, I've only seen one company so far have a waterless concentrate that can also be diluted for rinseless.
Duly noted. Thanks for your prompt reply and keep up the great work.
I have been debating on getting waterless/rinseless washes to keep the car clean every 3rd week I like to use the self service washes and occasionally the drive thru(I know) but I've been exploring this option
Trust me on this one. Even with a rinseless wash, your car will look better than it ever has after going through a tunnel wash. (I can speak from experience)
@@TheOutdoorDetailer Thank you for quick response
Nice!!!
Idrosave as a WW would be more comparable to Adapt
I have a love hate relationship with Idrosave, which is the main reason I hadn't published a video about it yet. I have a pile of them and they show my sponge turning black, the cleaner sheeting off the surface, and some other negative things. I also have a few where it cleaned easily and had no issues. So until I can sort out what exactly it works for with me and what it doesn't I have to save that content.
@@TheOutdoorDetailer I’ve bought it but not used it yet, just thought the protection side of it was more comparable to Adapt, I think this is how I’ll try it first as I’m not sure it’s going to suit my needs as a Rinseless.
